Eugene V. Debs.l
While he is still an infant in the
cradle two men smile at him and
one says "Tweedledee" and the 9TH
err Tweedledum." He COOS at
"tweedledee" and scowls at "twee-
dledum." That was bad man who
said "Tweedledum."
When he is old enough to walk out
into the yard he looks through the
fence at youngster on the other
side. He does not like this child be-
cause he is on the other side of the
fence. 1t is only bad boys who would
be on the other side of the fence.
But he goes outside of the fence
one day and meets this boy and gets
acquainted and finds that he is nice
boy. But the boys who live in the
other end of the same block are, or
rather must be, bad boys. Boys who
live so far away must be bad. And
they must be wicked and low lived
and exceedingly inferior.
Finally he learns to know these
same boys and finds them like the
boy next door. Then he goes to
school. There are many boys he
does not know. They live in other
parts of the town. They must be of
inferior breed to the boys he knows,
and all must be vulgar and wicked
plotting mischief against him. That
must be the natural occupation Of
boys in other parts of town. He IS
ready to fight them, especially those
who wear clothes slightly better
than his. What contemplate fell
lows they arel Boys with such fine
clothes should go home with bloody
noses.
When this child grows up he finds
opinions different from his own.
Some men believe in "tweedledee" !;
others in "tweedledum." But those
who hold to the latter are scoun-
drels. They must be, because "twee-
dledum' does not sound right.
But of all bad men, those VINO live
in better houses than his and who
ride behind champaign horses or
whizz by in horseless carriages are
the worst. They are CAPITALISTS.
They are wicked beyond words to
tell.
But he makes the acquaintance of
one or two people of this class and
finds they are in all essentials the
same as the other men of his ac-
quaintance. The two courses are
open to him. He can become a sem
sible citizen or he can become a
first-class Gemagogue, and make
speeches and run for Office on plat
form that says "Tweedldee" and de-
nounce capital.-Chlcago Tribune.

GRIEF AND REPROACH
At the Casket When il is Too Late
4 Rebuke to the Ungrateful.

How often we hear the husband as
he stands by the bier of his wife re-
mark that 'she was good wife,
God bless her!" How often we see
a husband buy the first flowers for
his wife after she is placed in the
casket. The woman asleep there
had borne the heat and burden of
life's long day, and no one had ever
heard her murmur; her hand was
quick to reach out in helping grasp
to those who fell by the wayside,
and her feet were swift on errands
of mercy; the heart of her husband
trusted in her; he had left her to
long hours of solitude while he
amused himself in scenes in which
she had no part When boon COM
panIons deserted him, when pleas
ure palled he went home and found
her waiting for him. Her hand had
led him to the uttermOst edge of the
morning that had no noon. Then
she had comforted him and sent HIM
out strong and whole-hearted while
she stayed at home and-cried.
What can woman do but cry?-
and trust?
Well, she is at rest now. But she
could not die until he had promised
to "bear up" not to fret, but to
remember how happy they had been.
They? Yes, it is even so. For she
was blessed in giving, and he in re-
receiving. 1t was an even partner
ship after all.
'She was good wife to me-"
Oh, man! man! Why have you
not said these words before her ears
were dulled by death? Why wait to
say these words over a coffin where
in lies a wasted, weary, gray-haired
woman, whose eyes have so long
held that pathetic story of loss and
suffering and patient yearning,
which so many women's eyes reveal
to those who read. Why not have
made the wilderness in her heart
blossom like the rose with the prodl-
gality of your love? Now you
would give worlds-were they yours
to give-to see the tears of joy your
words would once cause bejeweling
the closed windows of her soul. 1t

BOYCOTT ON MEAT.

President Donnelly, of the
butchers national organization,
declared a boycott against all
meat in Chicago last Friday and
openly announced that his organ
ization would, if possible, force a
meat famine. He said:
A meat famine will be forced at
all costs. It is the best weapon with
which to fight the trust packers, al
though it may not be welcomed by
the independents.
There is an utter disregard
here Of the welfare and comfort
of the public. A meat famine in
Chicago and the other big pack
ing centers would mean a meat
famine in varying degree all
over the land. darlington would
be affected as we'll as Chicago,
for darlington people are sup
piled chiefly from the Chicago
and st. Louis packing houses
with the best products of those
establishments. Such meat
famine as that proposed by Don
nelly would make scarce, ad-
vance the prices of all meat pro-
ducts, besides causing an unnec-
essary and uncomfortable sacri-
flee and consumption of tough,
old country cows. Donnelly has
endeavored to embroil the switch
men and all other unions in Chi
cago in this struggle for mastery
over the packing industry, but
has failed. The butchers union
is losing the fight, as all will do
and all deserve to do who adopt
such extreme and violent meth
DDS as have been employed in
this strike.

UNION LABOR NOTES
A Strike That Was Settled With One Hand.

A Strike That Was Settled With One Hand.
A strike at the Greenwood colllery
at Tamaqua, Pa, was quickly set
tied the other day without the aid of
arbitration or the granting OF any
concessions whatever to the strikers.
The operators of the colliery had is
sued orders that cigarette smoking
on the premises must be stopped,
whereupon the breaker boys went
on strike, declaring that they
would not submit to such arbitrary
and oppressive regulations, and
sending word that it was their it,
tention to site up the whole works"
unless there was an immediate back
down on the part of their employers.
1t was at this stage of the pro-
ceedings that one of the mine bosses
decided to adopt heroic measures for
the purpose of preventing the boys
from carrying out their threat con-
corning general tie up. After get
ting the strikers assembled in the
general office, he called two of them
into his private room, where he gave
them a redhot spanking. This pro-
ceeding was repeated until every
boy had taken his turn across the
knee. The strikers were then asked
if they were ready to swear off on
cigarettes and return to work. They
voted unanimously that they were,
and that ended the trouble.
That this coercion was strictly
within the law is doubtful, and
though it presents delightfully."-
simple method for putting an end to
strikes it might lead, generally
speaking, to serious complications.
But the results as regards cigarette
smoking are to be highly commend
ed, and if the fathers of the boys
were to apply 1t out of working
hours, it might be justly celebrated
some day as the beginning of far
reaching and beniffcent reform.
