with me- We had both left our homes
before we met each other. and we didn

as any hindrance to our happiness.
Mrs. Kyle was indignant over the whole

There's no lark about it," she de-
clared This is the most interesting and
important event in my life, and upon the
outcome depends my future happiness.

officially stating that he is to be brought

say:
Failure of Legislation.
'Those responsible for the failure of
legislation by Congress to afford substan-
tial relief to the toilers will exercise all
of their genius and sophistry in the COM
ing campaign to- point with pride to the
employers liability law they passed to
protect employees engaged in the trans

explanation why they did not extend the

ployes engaged in interstate commerce.
including those on the rivers. lakes.
canals and harbors. thus leaving the act
open again in vulnerable way to be de-
clared unconstitutional as class legisla-
ton.
They will exhaust the English Ian
guage in appropriating fulsome flattery
for the party because it tardily passed a
child labor law for the District of Co
lumbia. where little or no industry pre-
walls. but they will be as silent as the
tomb if asked how that poor little law
can be enforced because of the failure to
spectors.
Law Declared Makeshift.
They will strain every effort to beguile
the people because Congress begrudgingly
passed a makeshift of law giving gov
eminent employees engaged in hazardous
occupations some semblance of relief in
case of injury or death. This act was
fairly wrung from the Sixtieth Congress
in the closing hours of the session in
order that some labor campaign thunder
might be manufactured.
Questions of personal rights, human
liberty and economic righteousness were
ignored by the dominant party in the ses-
sion of Congress just closed. The time
has arrived when the toilers of our coun-
try should rise to the occasion: to meet
the momentous conditions which con-
fronts not only them, but all our people.
and exercise their full rights as workers,
as men and as citizens of our common
country.
