That Mob at Springfield, Ohio.

Last week Springfield, Ohio,
again disgraced herself. One
thousand young towards at
tempted to lynch a colored man
who had killed a white man.
They did not seek to find out
whether or not the colored man
was justified nor did they care.
LYNCH. That word seems out
of place for Ohio. yet they tried
that very thing. Poor fools-ali
leading papers have condemned
it and the authorities have APP
pretended many of the big burly
culprits. Yea, ku klux. Now if
the Negro was tough and
killed this man without sufficient
cause, he should be tried and
punished accordingly, but the
man is not dead, he was only
shot. The most despicable thing
of all as the Courier Journal and
the Nashville Banner said, is the
onslaught taken on the innocent.
One thing tho which differs from
the south, at the north the courts
make an example of the rebel
lous crowds. We hobe the time
will soon come when one Negro
will not be equivalent to 1000
white men, but all men, being
created equal, will be equal be-
fore the law and in the arenas of
this mighty amphitheatre.

shame and disgrace of American life,

US by the commercial greed i'm the toll
Grafton of child labor. Motherhood
and factory life should be divorced.
Whether women work by the day or
by the piece their earnings are very
seldom on so large scale as the earn
ings of men Why this should be is
accounted for by those who believe in
the ballot for women on the theory
that women cannot vote, and that al
though they preponderate in the la
bor market, they have no direct influ-
ence in politics.
Another explanation is that they are
somewhat less thorough and RESPONSE
BILE than men in carrying out what they
undertake. This is sur on the
working women which is undeserved
and mean. 1T must be admitted. ! re-
greet to say, that women have less re-
gard for the validity of contract
than men, and that they are much
more likely to drop their work and
change situation on impulse than
men are. Marriage, too. often takes
them, as it should. out of the ranks of
competition and places them in the
shelter of home life.

ments, rather than in me lower. Sales

not much be feared. There still re-

Women as Breadwinners
BY MARGARET {. sANosTER.

Women are to be taken into account
as important factors in the labor mar
kets of the world. Wherever there is
an important commercial industry, let
its nature be what it may. women are
employed in the production, its buying
and its selling. Women bind shoes,
stitch gloves, make cOrsets, stand be-
side the loom day after day, in cotton
mills, wooden mills, silk mills and paper
mills: women make artificial flowers
and feathers, paper boxes and safety
pins. Women are employed in tobacco
factories, and, i'm reality, very few
things that we eat drink or wear have
not passed under the shaping hand or
the finishing touch of woman.
The labOrs of wage-earning women
are confined to no locality. Thousands
of women work in shops and factories
in Bombay and CALCUTTA, just as they
dc i'm New England and the south and
the middle west. Everywhere around
the globe women work hard and long,

support families and take their share
in the worlds work. Although there
are labor unions of women, they ap-
pear TO get on as a rule with fewer
strikes and less friction than their
brother workmen.
In some localities at morning and
evening, the streets are filled with
long professions of women, young and
old, going to and from their places of
daily toll. In the great department
stores saleswomen outnumber sales
men. They are equally as gifted in
selling goods as their fellow clerks of
the other sex. Notwithstanding the
disabilities of the feminine organiza-
ton. they lose little time and make no
fuss about the hardships incidental to
standing behind counter.
Women set type, read proof, go about
as reporters to gather news. and sell
newspapers on the street. In a few
cases women occupy important editor
ial positions, and in a great number of

Strange Political situation

If we felt as some people seem
to feel, THAT the object of our
government is to perpetuate my
political party, we would feel
rather dubious about the present
political situation. We have in
deed a curious condition of affairs.
The republican party is not spend
ing its greatest energies nowadays
in fighting the democratic party.
1t is giving its greatest attention
to 1.-THE impossible task of mixing
oil and water. In other words
in trying to harmonize two ele-
ments within the party each OF
which stand for a different policy.
Neither is the democratic party
exerting all of its energies against
the republicans. 1t has precisely
the same trouble within its ranks
as the republicans-'tlying to har.
monte two elements that stand
for different measures. Strange to
say, the same things are di-
viding the one party are dividing
the other party, with the result
that one faction in one party and
one faction in the other party
stand for practically the same
things. The natural result will
be that those who stand for the
same measures will eventually
come together under the head OF
either of the old parties or under
new name. The present age
has new questions to meet and
if the old parties, Notwithstanding
their glorious past achievements,
fail to rise to the occasion it may be
necessary for new party to arise
In fact, it looks as though that
party had already arisen in the
form of the independent voter,
who Notwithstanding that he is
without au organization or a lead,
er, he has proven himself to be as
mighty as an army with banners

To parents fondly given;
Nine babes in distant homes were born
In the year OF eighty seven.
We were lovingly cared for by mother
Before our school days came,
Made mud pies with sister and brother
And rode stick horses so game.

To the days when We should go to

And begin our journey upward.

With fractions trimming over,
And tables too which all detost
Was not like fun with Rover.

Too came greater headache,
Analysis, our minds TO test,
Aud hard exams we'd take.
And thus we took successive steps
Until, at last, we finished
The eighth grade subjects hard and
deep,
With zeal still undiminished.
We, to the High School came at last
With aims and hopes built high
We studied hard; our grades we past
AS onward still we tried.
From different schools to this we came,
From lowly ones to greater;
Until, we found. the road to fame
Led to our Alma Mater.

From Arkansas one busy bee
And one by Kansas lent.
