TIME TO TAKE NOTICE

Secretary of Commerce and Labor
Straus. hit the nail squarely on the
head when he issued sweeping
order to all commissioners of labor
that all aliens who are known to
have anarchistic tendencies are to
be deported. 1t seems like an in.
justice to thrust them upon some
other nation, but the probability
is they would drift back to their
home country and who has a better
right TO deal with such people? Eor
some years writers and platform
speakers have endeavored to secure
the attention of the people long
enough to make them understand
that one of the threatening things
in this country was anarchy The
people for the most part. have
waved the question aside and refus-
ed to give it serious consideration.

people have begun to awaken to the

CONFESSES
Youth Admits Having Fired
a Building After He
Robbed 1t.

Bryan, Ohio, March 5.-CliGord
Kline, a youth, who left his home
in Buffalo two weeks ago, was ar
rested here yesterday charged with
having robbed candy store in the
Arcade Building at Wauseon and
having set fire to the place. He con-
fessed and said he had started the
fire to see some excitement. But for
the timely arrival OF a postoffice
clerk a few minutes after the fire
was started, at midnight, Wauseon's s
finest building would have been bad
ly damaged by the Flames. Kline,
who was ID years old yesterday, was
armed with a loaded revolver and
electric searchlight, which he had
purchased in Toledo, Monday. A
gold watch and S. he had taken in
the candy store were also found on
him. Several people were sleeping
directly over the candy store.

The recent Pennsylvania mine hor-
ror promises to bring about legisla-
tion which will safeguard the min
ers, and it is to be hoped that the
,Collinwood horror will serve to bet
ter protect the pupils in our public
schools. Sacrificing almost two hum
dred lives is a high price to pay
for experience, but there are some
things to be learned from the dis
aster.
1t is well recognized that some
of our city school buildings are not
property equipped with fire escapes.
Each building of even two stories
should be thoroughly equipped Near
ly every room in the Marion schools
is crowded and with all the pupils
attempting to make their exit at the
same time many would be killed
or injured.
In addition to- having the build
ings thoroughly fitted with fire es-
capes, more attention should be Civ
en- to the fire drill. In some OF the
local schools this drill is given only
once in each month. Indeed in some
of them the children are at less
to know what DIT means when the
fire alarm is sounded. Accounts of
the Collinwood fire show that many
of the children were killed while
trying to make their escape through
u rear door which swung in. Had
the fire drill been effective, many of
those lives could have been saved.
In the destroyed school building
the younger children, ranging in
age from six to eight years were
quartered in an attic room on the
UVlTu IlOOT. Inc SHldlleI pupllS, luC
ones which were least able to help
themselves were placed in the most
dangerous place. This blunder should
awaken boards of education every
where to realization of the protcc-
tion which should be given to all
pupils. but more especially to the
little tots.
This latest horror should start
n crusade which would end only
when every possible protection has
been thrown about the children who
attend our public schools. Less talk
about race suicide and more protec.
tion for the lives and health of the
children we have will be productive
of better results.

TAG DAY

1t is indeed seldom that the people
of Marion have been called upon TO
dispense charity. Marion has been
exceptionally free from poverty and
destitution, because every man who
was able to work and wanted to work
could secure employment at wages
which were at least fair. But condi-
tions have changed and change in
conditions has brought about
change in circumstances. The fact
that there are large numbers of men,
women and children who are suffering
for the lack of the necessities of life
Is with us and we must meet 1t.
Because we have not been called ups
on in the past to contribute to char.
ity is all the more reason that we
'should contribute literally now that
the necessity has arisen and the OPP
portunity is offered.
No class of persons is better
aware of the conditions as they are
today in Marion than the teachers in
our public schools. They associate
five days in each week with the
children who come from these desti-
tute homes and they have a way of
knowing that their storicJ are true
These teachers have taken up the
work of relief and have set Saturday
as Il time for collesfing money and
supplies for their rehcf. Saturday
will be Tag Day. Every person who
contributes anything toward the re-
lief of the needy will be given tag

that a donation has been solicited
and received. While one tag will

OMMUNICATION. .

-
Editor Mirror, Marion. Ohio.
Dear Sir: 49, While it seems useless
to argue with man who having
taken a wrong position on subject
owing to not having fully posted
himself on the matter, persists in
standing on the same platform even
after he has been informed as to
his wrong position. feel that he
may mislead others and therefore
wish to more fully state the provi-
sion of the Sites Hunters License
Bill.
If Mr.. Chase will get copy of
the bill he will see that it provides
that the owner of the license is
permitted to hunt only in such a
manner as is now lawful
AS 1t is now unlawful to hunt
on mans premises or to trespass
on same without the owners con-
sent the new law in no way gives
that privilege and / cannot allow
Mr. Chase to put any such wrong
construction on the bill
lie positively states that the bill
provides that man must pay a
license to hunt on his own land
when the bill distinctly states that
no land owner. his children or a
tenant of any land or his child
rem shall pay license.
WhX--.NIr. Chase makes a state
ment of this sort when It is entirely
wrong cannot understand and
trust that he will get copy OF the
bill and after reading it make
manful statement in your paper that
he has made a man of straw only
20 kick it to pieces and admire his
work.
II the native wild game of our
state does not receive proper pro
lection. and who should pay for this
protection other than those that en-,
Joy the outdoor life and pursuit OF
game, the same condition OF affairs
that prevail in England will soon
prevail in this country and Mr..
Chase cannot possibly deplore such
l condition any more than the
writer.
Conditions in England are differ
ent than in this country There
Is practically no wild game in all
England. It is all raised on game
preserves about the same as pouI-
try is raised in this country and
most Of the game Is hatched I'm in
oubators and reared in brooders
until old enough 30 take care of
themselves and then they are
watched and fed about the same
rs chickens.
Naturally when man breeds and
rears game in this manner he must
have the same or about the same
protection that a farmer in this
country has for his povltry and for
that reason the game laws of Eng
land must be different than in this
country.
IT. however, the native wild game
'O'H'i9 hbth IOI RPI Drttnr
protection than 1t has been get.
ing II will as the country gets
more densely settled disappear and
then game win ha bred here tine
same as In England and laws will
DC PASSED protecting the breeders
and their game.
Mr. Chase refers to the bin no
the North Bill" and while I wouId
be proud to be the author of same
! must relinQuish the honor to the
members Of the Fish and Game
commissions of about fifteen other
states that have been ahead of the
ohio Commission in providing
Dill that does what it is intended
TOT, namely. protecting both game
ana farmer In manner that has
never prevailed before.
