A Korean Romance.

A romantic little story comes from
the Ckuk San district, says the Korea
Daily Times. One of the residents
having died of illness. his only wife
declared her intention of killing her.

for woran to remain alive after
her husbsrd was dead and that she
would be far happier if she followed

Laundry work at home would be
much more satisfactory If the right
Starch were used. In order to get the
iesired stiffness, it is usually neces-
iary to use so much starch that the
beauty and fineness of the fabric Is
hidden behind a paste of varying
thickness, which not only destroys the
appearance, but also affects the wear
ng quality of the goods. This trou-
,le can he entirely overcome by using
Defiance Starch, as 1t can be applied
much more thinly because of its great
,r strength than other makes.

Good for the old Bay Statel The
Democrats in Massachusetts will elect
their next candidate for governor this
year, and will win the state a year from
this fall on the issue of tariff reform.
Republicans by the thousands, disap-
pointed by the stand taken by the lead
ers of their own party on this mo-
mentous question, are sworn to vote the
Democratic ticket. The demand in Mas
sachusetts for free raw material, such
as iron, coal, leather and lumber, is
growing stronger each day. The strong
men of Massachusetts are aware that
the Republican party has no intention
of revising the tariff even after the
presidential election. New England is
preparing stinging rebuke to the
party which has fostered the trusts by
aid of the oppressive tariff.
Los Angeles herald., 1907-08-27

designing coal barons to face condi-
tion that arbitration cannot change.
The farms and other industries allure
these poor wage slaves to easier. safer
and better paying labor, and their cruel
taskmasters will learn that they have
made the worm to turn in a most unex-
pected manner.
Men usually are graduated, as boys,
from the coal breakers to the mines,
and while the miners family could be
enslaved as we'll as himself there was
always a source of supply open to the
barons, but now it will be well nigh
impossible to recruit the underground
forces, for no man in his senses would
elect to work as an apprentice miner If
any other avenue of labor were open
to him.
1t is quite likely that this self-inhicted
blow may be the long deferred punish
ment the cruel policy of the Pennsyl-
vania coal barons so justly and fully
merits In any case it is sign of the
times leading to the coming settlement
of troubles between capital and labor or
some more fitting basis than dollars and
cents grudgingly given.

SEEKING COVER

WI HEN the railways were running
w in full swing, unmolested by
w threatening state legislatures,
the magnates who have waxed fat at
the public trough repelled every
thought of federal supervision. In time
of peril from various states where re-
strictive legislation is impending Roose-
velt's plan of blanket national laws
framed by Wall street meets with ap-
proval from the same magnates. This,
like the Republican talk of tariff reform
several years hence, deludes no one.
The public will have none of this delay.
1t will be shown that the Republican
party will not give immediate relief,
and then the people will arise and
Democratic administration will be
swept into power and the tariff will be
reformed at the hands of friends Of the
consumers and not at the hands of
friends of the robber trusts.
