ROLLING IN LUXURY
WHILE SLAVES BEG

Senator Clark's magnificent private
ear is finished. II is the grandest in
the United States. The Injuries of

parvenue despoiler has even laid sac
religious hands on Sherwood forest of
England and its noblest prize was raw

"A filthy and ignorant American "suc-

While the senator rolls over the
country in n gorgeousness that eastern
potentates never knew, the miserable
slaves that have dug and smeltcd and
formed the copper that is the source
Of this splcndor, are hunting new

BARRON BEWAILS
ANARCHY
Lawson Causes Money To Leave
Country and Seek Invest
ment Elsewhere.

G. w. Barron has the following wall
in regard to the Lawson libel suit: "If
Mr. Lawson has liberty to call for pub
lie panic when the season suits him, the
sooner the public and the financial com
munity understand il the better. Then
Mr.. Lawson may not be the only lead
er TO "A revolutionary movement. In.
vestment money will quickly make a
revolution, and move itself out of a
country where liberty and license to
do disorderly things are so confound'
ed. A"
What a terrible calamity it would
be if the "investment money of the
financiers should be moved out of the
country. The country would of course
be of no use without the capitalist and
his metal, according to the tale of
those who have imposed their condi-
tions upon us.
The socialist looks at the matter in
another light. What he wants is ac
cess to the resources oil wealth, and If
the capitalists will just leave the coun-
try, bag and baggage, and leave the
country behind them, I guess we ii
manage to scratch a living out Of it
without having to give it all up to
these parasites.
The capitalist graft is falling by its
own Tottsnness.

Communication of the death sentence

meeting Of the pardon board next
week to consider the case. Meanwhile
notice will be sent to the trial judge
and the prosecuting attorney with re-
quest for their recommendation. The
best Crawford s attorneys hope. for is
a commutation to life Imprisonment.
The application gives the name Of
Claud D. Crawford, and the age 27
years. He was born in Missouri, and
Crawford. He was enlisted in the
Spanish war in the Fourteenth in
fantry. After he was discharged he
worked in Idaho on ranches and in the
mines, and later in Dakota up to Octo-
ber, 1904, when the crime was COM
mitted. The ground for the applica-
tion is stated as follows: a
That your petitioner had no in
tention of committing murder and had
of liquor at the time; that the homi-
eide was committed purely by the acci-

that your petitioner has never been
convicted of any offense in this or any
other country and has never been ar

NEW PAYING EXPERT MENT
BRICKS, WITH HIGHLY RECON-
MENDED GILsoNITE FILLER,
USED ON SEVENTH STREET n.

An experiment with brick paving is
being made on Seventh sctreet N be-
tween First and Third avenues. The
brick is the same as used elsewhere in
the city, but an asphalt filler known
as gilsonite les being used for the first
time. One Of the advantages Of this
filler is that it prevents the edges from
chipping, which is the chief object
tion to brick pavement. If used in
sufficient quantities the preparation
makes the pavement noisless. .-..-.
Minneapolis has tried, many kinds of
material for filling, including cement,
tar, sand and various patent : grouts,
particularly Murphy's, but sand has
been found to be the most satisfactory.
Assistant City Engineer E.. R., Dutton
says that the use of, the new filler Will
add Is cents per yard to the cost Of
the paving, but if the advantages
claimed result, it is worth more than
the additional cost. fl. ...J
~ The new paving will be watched
carefully,,> and if it. proves success
another experiment will be made on
the old pavings on Sixth and Seventh
streets. The bricks have Clipped bad
ly where the traffic is heavy. By COW
ering the brick with gilsonite it is be,
lieved that the streets can be made
almost as noiseless as creosoted wood
block paving and further chipping will
be prevented. : -
