Stone-Mason and Premier.

In South Australia one of the labor
leaders, Thomas Price, is Premier of the
State government. He was formerly a
stone mason and worked by the day on
the Parliament house. in which he now
sits, chief ruler of the state. He is of
this same class, the same order of the
economic student; he is a graduate of
the same school in which the lessons
are learned at night when the day s
work is over. He has this characteris-
tic reserve. like the rest of the leaders,
but ] Judge that at times he is capable

tralian Parliament, he told in cam
palgn speech certain things about this
same shipping trust that threatens to
grip by the throat the ocean commerce
of Australia. All that he said has
since been demonstrated before the
Federal commission to be perfectly true,
but at that time the trust had not been
attacked and it was arrogant. By an
arrangement similar to that employed
in Mr. Lawson S case, the trust put up
a dummy TO sue Mr.. Price for libel. The
Nbel laws of Australia are relic of
sheer savagery. The trust got verdict
of $500. Mr.. Price owned his cottage,
the result of years of toiling at his
trade, and beyond that he had not a
dollar. So the great shipping trust,
which annually gouged millions from
the people of Australia, purposed To
seize the 5000 cottage to punish him
for telling the truth.-Charles Edward
