Speaking Of Senator 10 Blackburn,
who will speak here shortly, tine Argo-
nsut tells this one:
Senator zoe" Blackburn's polite
ness was disastrous to him upon one
occasion. He was making a trip TO
the mountains in the eastern part OF
Kentucky, and made his stopping
place at a farmhouse at a remote point
from the city. On the day Of his ar
rival he was rather late for dinner,
ana the lady Of the house apologized
for the coffee, which at that time was
lukewarm. "Oh', i do not mind 1t in
the least. madam, said Senator Black
burn; Il really prefer my coffee cold,
you know" Il was served cold during
the remainder of his two weeks stay.
The new fire escape at the Hiyh
school building bids fair to be "a
thing OF beauty and JOY forever =
to the small boy. at any rate.
The youngsters take speculisr de-
light in il, and while it Is not for Q
moment feared that any OF them. in
his youthful longing to test the utility
of the fascinating contrapiion, will
set fire TO the house or give false
alarm OF fire in order 60 get to slide
down, it is nevertheless good thing
that the pleasure is to be denied to the
youngsters except in case of necessity,
The other day the teachers and
pupils were grouped in the yard look
ing at the huge affair, when q small
boy excitedly rushed mp and pipod;
"Oh, professor, II ! sin't tarly ioi
FIVE days in succession, may slide
down onct?"
The professor wouldn't promise, bui
the little fellows question disclosei

No Reason Against Reform
There is absolutely no ,.cason why
our laws should not be SO reformed
as to bring about q more equitable dis

no reason why the individual man Or
woman, able to work and willing GO
work, should not always find it, at a
fair wage; no reason under the sun
why the reign of privilege may not
be brought to an end.
Almost every i'll which now afflicts
the body polite can be traced to it's
source in vicious legislation. Govern
ment, instituted for pubic purposes,
has been prostituted to private pur-
poses; and that is the true secret of
most Of our troubles.
1t is today more apparent than it
ever was before that combined capital
has deliberately come to the conclu-
sion that union labor must be crushed.

of capital, which moved the British
parliament centuries ago, when it pun

crime. Not only did the capitalism of
that day deny laborers the right to
form unions, but low scale of wages
was prescribed, and the workman who
refused to work at the stated price
was punishable by law as criminal.
Having thus enacted legislation which
created poverty, there was only one
