He Says.

New York.-Justice David J. Brew.
er, Of the United States Supreme
Court, speaking before a large and
distinguished audience in Carnegie
HALL. criticised and condemned Pres
ident Roosevelt, accusing him among
other things of playing a political
game Of hide-and,seek with the Amer

The speaker drew an open compari-
son between Roosevelt and Hughes,
saying, ironically, that while It had
been said Of Roosevelt while COVER
nor of New York, that he had discov.
cred the Ten Commandments, Cover.
nor Hughes had done more-he had
discovered the Golden Rule.
Justice Brewer was frequently ap'
plauded. His address, delivered, as 1t
was. at the opening public meeting Of
the Civic Forum, a new non.partisan,
non-sectarian organization, and follow
ing. as 1t did, a speech by Governor
Hughes, in which many in the audi.
ence believed they saw a yelled at
tack on the president. created a pro-
found impression. Justice Brewer
said, in part:
Hide and Seek Player.
1.-THE spectacle Of our strenuous
president playing hide.and. seek with
the American people would not now
be before US If the original provision
OF the congress that drafted the con
stitution were in effect. That pre-
scribed a presidential term Of seven
years. with a prohibition on re-elec'
| ton.
In the judgment of maryland
am among them-the change from thai
provision was a mistake"
He described a public officer as q
ruler almost as absolute, while his
term lasts, as a king,
But Justice Brewer was careful tc
point out that a rulers judgment
should be upon important matter:
only. He said, for instance: 1T Is
foolish for a president to quarrel ovel
simplifed spelling" and this brought
out a roar OF laughter.

THE strike inaugurated by the
Western Federation of Miners on
the Minnesota ranges is thing of
the past, nearly all those who went
out having gone back to work or
to other fields. Only those draw
ing salary as agitators and few
who are not miners but who are
"feathering their own nests" are
still out on strike. The balance
have given the cause up as hope
less task. 1t is remarkable how
solicitous few tailors and shoe
makers are of the miner. And
then there is Petriella, the college
educated anarchist who is pulling
the legs of the laborer to fatten
up his own carcass. The old-coun-
try socialist, who could not under
any condition lives in any other
country is fixing things so that he
also cannot stay in America with
any degree of satisfaction. The
Russian anarchist has shown his
hand, and in it was found a bomb
for the range miner. There was
wholesale weeping and wailing
when it was discovered that the
Federation would not keep those
on strike in idleness and luxury,
Notwithstanding the fact that
money was going into the pot to
feed the hungry. The hungry
were found to be Petriella, Keyes
the attorney, and a horde of Sec
retaries, etc., who are draining the
treasury which was put UP to help

SCHOOLS BEGIN
Their Work Monday Morn
ng---EnrOllment.

The schools of District No. II be-
gan their work Monday morning with
complement of teachers and an
enrolment too large for the buildings.
In consequence the Sletten store
room has been rented and an overflow

that the board contemplates calling
meeting of the district to see about
more room. In all probability anoth-
er school will be erected and the
MINER would suggest that it be locat-
ed on the hill in the western end of
the city, as that end has no school

THE constitution of The Western
Federation of Miners says that no
one but actual mine workers can
hold offices. AS the larger part of
the Ely members are those who
cannot speak, let alone read, En-
glish, and as the book has not as
yet been translated into the social
istic foreign tongues, perhaps those
drawing the salary have not caught
on to anything but the cash.

the unfortunate man out of work
to feed AMI clothe himself and
family. 1t is no great wonder that
the position of leader and agitator
is sought after by several. Men who
are not capable of drawing $50 a
day for actual work delivered, are
getting from So to S. a day for
making blood thirsty talks to those
who will listen Fellows who work
ed hard in the old country for 35
cents dav feel themselves in the
millionaire classes on the salaries
MIXED from the laborer. The clan
in Ely is numbered and every one
is known. Out of about so red flag
followers here about eight or ten
are citizens of America; the bal
ance are subjects not citizens
mind you of some foreign despot.
In sizing up some of the material,
it is no wonder that foreign pow
ers are despotic in their treatment
of their subjects. The red flag,
free-love and general law-defying
theory of the old-country socialist
should have no place in this coun-
try and the government would do
a wise act to start deportation pro-
ceedings at once against the for
eigner with these ideas. The cit
liens who feel similarly should be
dealt with also in manner which
could not leave a doubt in their
minds that such stuff would not be
tolerated. The red flag stands for
anarchy and nothing more. The
of some, who say the
rag stands for ties of blood, are
partly correct, Blood it is, but it
was blood that run in the gutter
at the Haymarket in Chicago; the
Molly Mcguire doings in Penn
sylvania; the riots in Russia and
Poland and several other events of
which history makes note. The
blood of innocents drawn by lot
of fanatics whose aim to revolution
ize the existing conditions is born
of a desire to down those who
through work and a strict applica-
ton to their duties haye lifted
themselves a little higher in the
world. The aim of the anarchist
is to rip up the delicate fabrics
that 60 to make up the laws OF the
land and to pull ali down to their
own leyel in order that the distinc
ton between the man and those
wearing mans clothes would not
be so readily noticed. The stars
and stripes forever! Down with
the red rag and the man who
faunts it! Give the decent people
a show in this decent land where
every man is king and his home
a kingdom, regardless of national
ity. If you don't like it, go back
where you came from if you dare.
