GIVES OLD GLORY A ROAST"
To Show the Judge What He Thinks
Man Whose Conscience Was
Too Tender Notes.

Grand Rapids, Mich, oct. 19.-So-
cialist Orator Thomas Selby, watch
engraver from Detroit, was followed
20 the police station by n bowling mob
of 500 persons, who made repeated
demonstrations. He had been arrest
ed by Sergeant Howell for speaking
without a permit although the arrest
really grew out of his utteranCts
against the United States flag and the
government Selby when asked in
court to repeat his utterances against
the flag, did so i'm dramatic manner
as follows:
Socialists Defines the Flag.
The American flag no longer stands
for right and liberty. What do its
colors stand for? The red stands for
the blood of the American working
men, shed at the hands of the trusts
and capitalists when he strikes for
liberty. The white stands for the pale
careworm and haggard faces of the
workingmen's wives and mothers, and
the blue stands for the welts on the
workingman's back. placed there by
their enemies of the money classes.
And the stars well the stars repre-
sent an astronomical vision to which
the workingman is treatedat the hands
of the policeman and his club when
lie makes his bid for betterment."
All Comes to So and Costs.
Attorney Dapper appeared for Selby
and pleaded leniency. Judge Holcomb,
however. asked if any city official had
a right TO grant a permit TO any per
son 10 speak on the street and make
seditious references TO our flag ana
government. Assistant Attorney Bar
ker made a stirring argument, i'm which
he declared that, in imposing sentence,
the remarks of a man who speaks in
terms calculated TO intlame the people
and incite mob violence should count
against him i'm court. After meteoric
hearing and a plea of guilty Selby was
fined So and costs. amounting to S1l.35
and warned not To repeat his remarks
against the flag. His fine was paid.

Owosso, Mich, Oct. IS. - High
tragedy with farcical climax was
played by Hiram Lanphere, plumber

wife. threatened TO kill himself. He
went home early and finding her away
proceeded TO lay out the properties and
set the stage for the play. When his
wife came i'm later. the odOr of carboIc

that her husband had taken poison.
