that while corruption seems To- be

HOW NOW!

Now what do those who declared so
lou4ly against the propriety OF the
city buying the Isett leases think?
Does the proposition look as bad as it
did? We guess lot. Does it now
see M like Rev. Gray was such 4 robber
for advocating the purchase of that
property? Have you heard about IL ?
When the city turned the proposition
down the pipers stepped In aud paid
for the property more than was asked
of the city.
They proceeded to cut down a well
and brought In the strongest gaser ir
this locality. This well alone is wei
worth the fifteen thousand that was
asked for the whole tract. ID seem,
this city does not need any more ga;
territory. They prefer letting tht
plpers buy up all the territory anC
then sell the gas back to the city at q
fancy price.
| Such policy RAY be good. We
never had much business ability and
are probably wrong In our conclusions
but we are convinced are that it would
be good sound policy for our mayor and
council to secure some more territory
while they can.

TERRIBLE EXPLOSION

Thirteen men were entombed in a
mine, Sunday, as a result of an. ex-
plos;on which occurred at Wilbur
ton, Oklahoma. They were at work
800 feet below the surface and sixty
feet above the bottom of the shaft.
1t is thought the explosion resulted
from the misplacing of shot which
set off pile of dynamite which had
been stored nearby. The explosion
was heard for miles from the scene
of the accident. Heavy tlmbers
were piled up and tons of dirt were
forced into the shaft. 1t will require
several days work to reach the un-
fortunate ones. Six of the thirteen
miners were colored.

CHICAGO STRIKE

The teamster's strike in Chicago
is growing more serious every day.
1t looks very much like the en-
ployers had combined against the
union teamsters and are going to
fight it out once for all.
Matters have been very unsatisfact-
ory between employers and employ
ees in the windy city for long time
and the crash seemed inevitable.
The large stores and business houses
that employ many teams have at
last become exasperated beyond en-
durance by the exactions of the
union teamsters, subscribed large
sum of money for the general inter
est and are importing nonunion
teamsters by the hundred. Riots
and disgraceful scenes occur ON the
streets hourly.
The union teamstcrs won't work
and won't allow others to take their
places if they can help it. Violence
and rioting is resorted to by the
tough element, in direct opposition
10 the orders of the strike leaders,
in an effort to intimidate the new
men. Many men have been as
saulted and seriously hurt and some
killed in the rloting.
The police are unable to cope
with the situation as the demonstra
tions are spread out over such a
large territory. The employers
have bought large numbers of Win
chester rifles and armed their men
for self defense against these lawles:
ruffians who seem to have murder II
their hearts and serious conse
quences are likely to follow.
If this thing of allowing unior
men TO 60 on riots, assault peace
abe citizens, burn and destroy
property and impede business gen
orally is not stopped by the unions
themselves, unionism in this country
will be short lived.
This freedom loving people be-
lieves in fair play. All men are en-
titled to equal chances in the great
field of labor and no man or set OF
men have the authority to curtail
that right by forcible means and the
American people will not stand for
it much longer. The unions must
be more careful about their mem
bership. The lawless and criminal
classes must no longer be protected
by the union badge or unionism will
go to pieces in this country.

Stopped OVER

Even great men. get ratified some
times or allow their prejudices to
carry them too fat. We have been
inclined to look upon Mr.. Stubbs as
a very level headed man and a great
leader, but In this Royce matter he
seems to have stopped over entirely.
When his work in the campaign
was over why did he not quietly re-
tire from the public eye and &c
about his business and not try tc
dictate the appointments that be.
long properly to the executive.
Such things are only excusable on
the part of those who wish to builc
up machine.
The Chanute times. [volume] (Chanute, Kan.) 1897-1913, 1905-05-05

long. The people are very much
aroused and bitterly incensed.
Sooner or later a strong leader
will arise who will organize and arm
the people and by properly guided
effort great results will follow. Rus.
sia must not think that by mere
force of arms she can much Longer
hold her vast population in ignor,
ance and virtual slavery.
All the people lack now to start a
great revolution that will shake the
government to its foundations is a
strong leader. When he arises a
general rising will follow and the
Gar will find his soldiers can not
meet the storm.

WHATIF HE SHOULD?

1t is now rumored that Gov.
Hooh will enforce the prohibition
law. Why should he not enforce
that law as well as any other law?
He is not the judge as to whether a
law is right or not. He simply is
charged with the enforcement of
the laws as he finds them on the
statute books. He takes an oath
to enforce the laws of the state, not
part of them but all of them. The
prohibitory law is one of them.
Gov. Hoch took that oath with
out any mental reservation. He is
an honest conscientious man. 1t is
not likely that he intends to enforce
part of the laws of the state and
wink at the open violation of others.
He need not 80 very far from the
executive mansion to find the pro-
hibitory law almost openly violated.
Joints and JOINT drug stores seem to
be very plentiful in Topeka. The
Gov. need not 60 very far from
home to begin his crusade.
When he gets these dens of mi
guilty in Topeka cleaned up and
Topeka becomes a decent law abid-
Ing town, suitable model of law
and order and decency for the
other cities of the state, then he can
begin to cast his eyes about over
the state for some other probable
violations.
Should he find any, which he will
in practically every town of the
state of 500 inhabitants he can en-
large his field of aggressiveness.
He need not be particular what
town he drops down in, the viola
tion is there. If not in the shape
of open saloons or joints, then as
joint drug stores that violate the
law every day of the week and Sun
day too. The average druggist
seems to think he does not violate
the law if he requires his customer
tv sign up and by SO doing swear tc
lie which the druggists know is I
lie when he accepts it.
The law does not contemplat,
that the stuff shall be sold even b,
the druggist with permit and upoI
signed application, as beverage
to be drank on the premises or car
ried away in bottles.
This whisky business Is Difficult
problem to handle and the Cover
nor will have a good deal of troubl,
to effectually enforce the law a
long as the profits in the buslnes
are SO great.
Personally We are becoming some
what wearied with law that is sc
near dead letter.
We would like to see one gooc
honest effort to enforce it, from the
Governor clear down the line and
then if it can not be reasonably well
enforced let 1t be repealed. A law
that is not enforced is worse than
no law at all.

DID YOU EVER

Think when you send your money
to some foreign concern for goods
of any kind that you can buy here,
of the great wrong you are doing
your own town and own commu-
nifty?
Of the ten dollars you may send
away, at least two dollars represents
margin over cost of the goods, to
be used in defraying the expense of
business and profit to the dealer.
OF this margin from 60 to IS per
cent goes for labor in the shape of
clerk hire, delivery men, etc. Then
for every ten dollars sent away for
goods that might be bought at home
SI.2o to ST.. is taken from the To-
cal fund that goes to pay labor and
is applied to the payment of labor
in some foreign town.
Is this fair? Is it patriotic? The
large army of employees IN this
country must be supported at some
point. They are town builders.
They spend their money in the town
where they live. Their wages go
for rents, clothing and provisions.
They keep money in circulation in
their home locality.
1t is your duty as well as it should
be your pleasure to lend your hand
to upbuild your own town. When
you send your money to foreign cor
porations for the things you could
buy at home you are damaging your
own town to that extent and rob-
bing the labor element of your town
of SO much of its legitimate wages.
You say, oh your trade does not
amount to much. Possibly it does
not but there are hundreds of others
and the aggregate amounts to many
thousands of dollars every year.
You excuse yourself that you buy
goods cheaper away from home.
Possibly that may occasionally be
true on some special article but on
the years business away from home
you have lost money.
Recently Chanute lady ordered
an article of apparel from Kansas
City because she thought she could
not get it in Chanuie. The article
cost her $2.as. In few days she
saw the identical article displayed
IN a Chanute merchants window
marked $3.50.
You owe your trade to the local
merchant. He makes good to you
if your purchases do not prove sat
isfactory. He buys the stuff you
have to sell. He spends his money
in your midst. He never turns you
Down when you circulate the peti-
ton for the church or any other
charitable enterprise. He contrib
utes to everything that tends to
build up or beautify your town.
Does the foreigner with whom you
spend your money do these things?
The argument is all in favor OF
trading at home. Even though you
knew you were paying little more
for some article at home you had
better do it and will make in the
long run by so doing.
The man who lives in a commun-
ity and is not willing to do his part
towards bearing the expenses and
burdens of that community, should
be drummed out.
The small profits on your pur-
chases are due your fellow citizens
and you can not afford to rob them
to the enrichment of another
city.
