FOREST RESERVE,

From information at hand, and I'M
deniable, we are fully persuaded, that
the so-called Forest Reserve move
ment Is an Ubiquitous scheme. Men,
and women too, of otherwise noble and
patriotic instincts, have been hoo
dooed into advocating the measure, by
designing rascals, whose only motive
Is graft for themselves and their as
sociate plunderers of the public do
main. No wonder ordinary people
were imposed upon by the skilfully
devised sophistry of those grafters,
when the secretary of agriculture, and
even people in higher positions than
he, have been misled by the designins
schemers. We have some facts and
figures that we shall submit to our
readers in our next issue that will
make clear the correctness of our con.
clusion. They were received too late
for this week.

when man, woman or child has been
MANNED or killed in the mill or fac
tory, the innocent sufferer has been
turned out to join the ranks of those
similarly situated, and sooner or later
drift into charity's niggardly nav, af-
ter being denied the right to earn a
living. Hence, the negligent and pro-
fllXate methods of the days of 40 and
81, when rich mineral was allowed to
remain unused. are being duplicated
on vast scale in the Industrial world
of a later day. In those days men got
rich quick at the expense of nature,
who is patient sufferer. Today it
would seem that the pioneers of new
industrial era are enriching themselves,
by Wasteful use of the energies of men,
women and children, only to cast them
upon the waste heap when they are
killed. injured or worn out in the fierce
struggle for livelihood. They too, have
been patient sufferers. It remains to
be seen how long they will bear the
burden.
Looking a little closer at the modern
industrial waste heap, let us examine
its component parts. OF what is 1t
made and from what sources is it
created? By tracing the questions of
accidents in industry, as they have
been investigated at home and abroad,
we find that the five great industries,
rallroading, manufacturing, mining,
building and construction and agricul-
ture are the main contributors. The
steam railroads in the United States
annually MAIN and kill 100000 en-
ployes and passengers, about Is per
cent Of which number are killed.
Many Deaths in Year.
The factories and mills conserva-
lively add 225,000 to the list annually
With the rush of building and con-
struction, it is not surprising to find
that over $4,000 are derived from this
source. John Mitchell has estimated
the loss in mining at $4,000 lives year.
| ly, this number being based on in
complete reports of only fifteen Of the
! thirty mining states To complete the
list, agriculture adds over 5000 acct
dents, resulting largely from the in
PRODUCTION of modern machinery. >
In this way the grand total of the in
jured and killed amounts to over SIS.
600. These figures are based on the
best authorities in the United States
on the thorough studies Of the acct.

SICK MAN DRIVEN

Omaha, Feb. AN. E, Clements
who served fourteen years as emnlove
OF Swift & Co., of South Omaha, was
taken i'll suddenly after getting to the
company's plant at South Omaha, at
500 p. m, Monday, JAM II. His busi-
ness was to gather waste tallow. suet
bones, etc., from the butcher shops.
He suffered a stroke of apoplexy, fall
ing On the ground.
The packing house policemen made
a record for themselves by getting him
outside Of the company's property in
the quickest time possible, and tried
to put the sick man on a street car, but
the conductor refused to let him ride,
as he was entirely helpless.
Those brave policemen would not be
fooled, SO, they put the sick man in a
SALOON, telling the bartender the man
was drunk, and that he would be all
right when he was sobered up.
Never Was Drunk.
The poor man. who never drank in
toxlcat1ng drinks, was left there until
out midnight, when the saloonkeeper
put the unfortunate man out.
BY this time he had partly regained
| consciousness and tried to. make his
way home, but fell by the wayside AT
the cold, dismal hour of $500 o'clock
on Tuesday morning,sa city policeman
found the man lying by the sidewalk
still unconscious, and hurried to get
him to the station, but was too late
as he was beyond medical aid, and

a victim Of packing house greed and
Indifference.

Ihey are admittedly incomplete. and

The productive power lying dormant

Dy actual experiments in re-establish-

IN New York and Chicago. 1t has
been found, for instance, that about 40
per cent or 1ndustrys cripples possess
certain earning power, but under
present conditions employers do not
hlre crlpples though they might do
some things we'll. The increased liza
b1lity to accident is the main reason
for this discrimination.
1T Is apparent, therefore, that the
partially and totally disabled are not
re-established in other lines Of en-
ployment. Fifteen per cent are killed
and the remainder, or about 100000

Onconsciously, the industrial system
accountable for this slaughter is also
forced to meet the economic loss. Con-
sloer1ng that the average annual wage
OF the artisan is $500, the loss in earn
ing power is something like $25O,000,-
Ooo yearly. In addition to this, it is
safe to say that the loss in production,
through enforced idleness, is twice the
ABOVE sum. So the Industrial scheme
must bear this burden and attempt to
save the waste in other ways-by
raising the price of food stqffs and
rent, and by reducing the wage scale,
or at best. increasing the latter but
slightly. AS matter Of fact, imitation
Of prices and other methods are false
palHat1ves and only tend to confuse
the real issue.
But the above loss is only part of

CHILD LABOR IN CONGRESS.

Oh o l. Al BIZ IN W M n & 90
Senator Beveridge Of Indiana has
demonstrated his right to be consid-
cred as the foremost statesman today
in the United States senate He Is
one Of the great men of our nation.
Recently he argued for four hours
before his august associates in favor
of the enactment of a Federal Law
prohibiting the employment Of child
rem in factories, sweat shops, cotton
mills and other places where children
that ought to be In school, are worked
by machinery from early morn to late
at eve.
The skill which he displayed In
parrying the questions and interrupt
tons of the greedy corporation sena-
tors, of the Spooner. Aldridge and
Bailey stripe, was truly wonderful, for
a man so many years their Junior. His
positions were simply unassailable.
He demonstrated that II capatilistfe
greed were permitted to be eating the
life and vitality out Of the boys and
girls who must be the future citizens
of the republic, it did not require much
Of a philosopher to prophesy what
the out come would be. A nation Of
men and women, lacking in mental
and physical energy. owing to the un'
fair methods Of their childhood treat.
ment, Is so abhorrent to contemplate.
that no true American can favor or
give countenance to such industrial
methods as are likely to bring it about.
Not only that, but the senator point
ed out that if child labor was per-
mitted to increase and continue, it
would only be a question of a very
short time, when men and women
wage earners, would be compelled to
accept childrenNs wages. Indeed he
indicated that the trend of the big
trusts was in that direction now, in
many of the southeastern states. They
were not satisfied with large and le-
Ultimate profits, but are striving for
enormous and unholy profits, even if
they have to sacrifice the mental,
moral and physical future of Americ-
an children to obtain them.
The senator showed by statistics of
the most conclusive character that
even in states where they pretend to
have laws for the protection Of child
rem from the factory operators, the
laws are mere pretense,-in the
majority of cases utterly disregarded,
because of the pollution of local senti-
ment by trust and corporate influ-
ences.
We have no hope that the present
congress, particularly the senatorial
end of it, will give any immediate re-
lief against this child labor evil, but
cts coming yet for a that and SEN
ators and representatives too, who op-
pose it, will be relegated to oblivion,
buried under the contempt of their
countrymen, and Americans worthy of
the name shall be found to do justice
to the little children of the nation.
