JUNIOR ORDER DECLARES
ITS LOVE FOR THE FLAG.
Newark Lodges Principles Printed on
Dance 0rders-Entertain 1000
on Stormy Night.

The fourth anniversary of General Law
ton Council No. 2S4. Junior Order United
American Mechanics, was held last night
in the New Auditorium. More than 1000
persons were there. They were well re-
paid for Drawing the storm in the enjoy
.nent of a splendid vaudeville program. an
orchestral concert and several hours Of
dancing.
Nearly every council in the city was
represented and several of the State Off
GERS were also present.
On the handsome dance orders appeared
the following principles of the council:
w affirm a warm and hearty welcome
to all immigrants who desire to better
their condition and are willing to bear true
allegiance to our flag; but we have no
room for the anarchist, socialist or nibilist,
nor for the crimina hordes OF the old
world. We affirm our devotion to the pub
lie school system o. this country. We be
ieve in compulsory education and hat all
teaching in our schools be in tine English
language. SO that future generations may
be fitted to fill their places in our ranks
by a knowledge of the history, customs
and manners Of Americans. We guarantee
to every man the liberty of ~worshiplng
God according to the dictates of his own
conscience. but we object most ~strenuously
to the interference of any church in the
temporal affairs Of this country. We be-
lieve that the Bible should be read in our
public schools. because 1t is the recognized
standard of all moral and civil law. We
believe that patriotism and love OF coun-
try should be instilled into the hearts of
children, and we would place our flag upon
every schoolhouse and the Bible within.
We are strictly a national political organi-
cation, but ppose strenuousiy any faint Of
partissnship."

WOULD PASS THREE BILLS
House Takes Liberal Position on Bank
Guaranty Law.

After spending about three days
work on the proposition in committee
of the whole. the house of representa-
tives has recommended for passage
three bills on the subject of guarantee
Of bank deposits.
One of these bills is the -Wag-
gener bill for insurance of bank de-
posits. which, under the chaperonage
of the state bankers association, was
favorably acted upon today.
Another was the straight guarantee
deposit bill. drafted on the plan of the
Quincy bill by the special committee
of nine in the house.
The third Is what is known as the
Ham BILL providing for the guaran-
tee of deposits by means of surety
bonds filed with the state by each bank
to cover the full amount of its deposits
Numbers two and three on this list
will not both be passed. The chances
are that three will be killed. for the
two plans are conflicting, and could not
both be operated.
The discussion of these three bills in
committee of the whole was decidedly
tiresome. Lots of minor amendments
were proposed, and some were favor
able acted upon. All of the bills are
placed on the calendar subject to
amendment and debate. which makes
it possible to prolong the discussion
when they come up in the house.
An effort was made to kill the Ham
bill In committee of the whole. but
the sentiment was in favor of allowing
1t to have hearing on the floor of the
house, though the sentiment seems to
be in favor of the committee bill.

SOCIALIST HOMES BURN.
An Incendiary Fire at the Old Colony
Near Fort Scott.

Fort Scott, Kan, Jan 28.-Fivei of the
six remaining buildings at the old Free
dom Labor Exchange colony, Is miles
northwest of the city, were burned by
1ncendiaries Monday afternoon. Frank
Sotton, secretary of the old exchange,
nved in one of the houses and John
Fitzgerald, ex-president Of the colony,
was moving into another of the build
1ngs. Victor Hero occupied one of the
buildings.
Cotton is a socialist writer and lee
turer. He settled in the colony when
Carl Brown, son-in-law of General
Coxey. took up his abode in a dugout
lists of the colony believe that enemies
of socialism fired the buildings Each
building was Enthusiastically saturated
with coal oil and the fires were started
evidently one after another. Cotton was
at his mothers home and her house
was not set on fire.
The Freedom Labor Exchange colony
was established in 1890 on a 60 acre
tract which was decided by President
Fitzgerald to the incorporated exchange
under certain communist restrictions.
The cooperative idea was carried out
successfully for some years and bust
ness was done on Autographed scrip,
carrying out the idea that money has
no intrinsic value, but merely is a me-
dunn of exchange. A sorghum mill
coal shaft, barrel factory and several
other enterprises were operated and the
products widely sold. In 1902 dissension
arose in the colony and a receiver was
appointed in March of that year.
