POLITICS AND TEMPERANCE

A writer in one of the current ex-
changes correctly says it is the
Anti-Saloon league, and not the
prohibition party as political or
ganization, that has worked such
marvellous advancement in the good
cause of of temperance. The league
operates through the older political
parties and knows no politics of its
own. On that account its efforts
have been more successful, and the
regulation or abolition of saloons in
many of the states is due to the
efforts of the league.
The temperance movement is, in
fact. largely against the saloon as a
power in the political life of the
country and in corrupting the lives
of young men. The league does not
advocate the breaking of bottles,
the pouring out of all liquors and
the prohibition of alcoholic manu-
features. 1t aims at the liquor bus
mess as an organized institution
and that, it would seem. is the first
and the most practical step in the
work of temperance That temper
ance is growing and that the coun-
try is vastly better off on account of
its growth cannot be denied. The
people know the ruin it has caused
and the lives it has wrecked. The
.Anti-saloon league has done some
practical work.

TO ABOLISH THE TRAMP

given $4,000 as the beginning of
a flEnd to be expended in getting rid
OF the tramp nuisance in America.
II is proposed to secure legislation

snane the tramps to work.
1t Is doubtful if any large meas
ure of success can be expected. Any
attempt 10 treat the tramp as diff

amy other menace to the public
safety will fail. The nation certain

NEW YEAR AND NEW HOPE


There is something cheering in
the thought Of beginning all over
again. and thus it is that with the
beginning OF the new year there
comes the new hope that the past
with its mistakes can BE blotted out
or at least redeemed by the work
of the new year. Not only is this
true in the personal equation, but
in the general business world and in
the affairs Of national Importance,
because the units Of the human hive
make up the aggregate with its
larger hope.
Merchants close the old year and
begin the new with a general stock
taking process. Society and indi-
vidual consciously and unconscious
ly follow in the same process. Per-
manent progress is not possible on
any other basis than one where
stakes are driven and milestones
and monuments erected to locate
definitely the status of man and So
Getty. Knowing for what we stand
and facing the future with new
hope is the vantage ground Of tht
new year.

tunity, splendid in rewards for
everyone who would work, have
been marked by the excessively
large number of tramps in every
part of the country. They are as
numerous as in the days OF Coxey's
army, and only less destructive be-
cause the people recently could feed
them without inviting disaster. Ev-
cry train carries them. Every police
force is troubled with them. Every
home is threatened by them land
many homes are feloniously entered
by them. For 1t is only an easy
step from the hobo to the criminal.
Some sentiment appears to be
recognized in the movement to
which Mrs. Sage has contributed.
The tramp Is excused because of the
'wunderlust That is a fiattering
way of saying he cannot remain
permanently in one place.
In cold fact, however, it will not
make the reform any easier to get
up tiattering fictions for the tramp.
He is an increasing nuisance, a
menace all the time, and a public
charge of the most undesirable
character. 1t is to be hoped that he
may be made to vanish. Inter

Government Labor Conditions

Each succeeding year shows an
increase in the humber of str,i.Hs
and lockouts in Germany, and these
are more marked in Saxony, on ac-
count o. lis great industrial Gevcl.
opment, than elsewhere. The num-
Der of strikes in Saxony in 1906
was 311, against 149 in 1899, the
first year for which statistice were
completed.
The causes of the strikes in 1905
were: Demands for higher wages,
I224; demands for shorter hours, IL;
demands for reinstatement of en-
ployes, recognition of unions, etc.,
76. In about SO per cent of the
cases the courts were appealed to
for the maintenance of order,
The struggles of the wage earn
ers to better their conditions have
been carried on persistently in the
face of industrial and other condi-
lions that would seem to make them
almost hopeless from the outset. The
wage earnefs are divided into two
camps, by reason of which they are
much hampered as to the lines
along which they should organize,
one party being the social democra-
cy, which comes close to being
treated as disloyal, or, at least, nom
patriotic, and the other party based
upon principles antagonistic thereto.
While the German workers have
profited by the experiences of their
fellow-workers in other lands, the
employers have not failed to profit
by the same experiences, and have
formed employers protective asso-
citations, which now cover the whole
country, and mutual associations of
manufacturers for insurance against
losses from strikes and lockouts.
1t is claimed that these latter as
sociations are really a benefit to the
cause of labor, for it is essential to
membership therein that factory
conditions be such as would not in
vite strikes, and it is also to their
interest to prevent strikes if posi-
bic, and when strikes occur to make
them as short as possible. The
convention of Saxon manufacturers
held in July, 1907, claimed that the
association had, in large number
Of instances. prevented or settled
lstrikes to the satisfaction Of en-
lploves and employers.
The immediate future has small
premise for industrial peace in Ger
many. nor has it much promise To-
THE betterment cf wages or hours Of

THIS YEAR IT WILL BE THE
MIDWAY,

The worlds fair at Chicago In 1898
named the amusement feature of the
big show the Midway. Since that
time new names have been coined.
The Glade, the fike, the Wanderlust,
etc. have gone their way. Each year
when the new name has been coined il
has been necessary to educate the
people as to its meaning. The word
Midway is known to everyone as the
amusement row-the place to go for
a good time, where something is con-
stantly doing-and that is the name
which will be used this year at the
state fair.
The location of the Midway this
year will be one street south of that
OF year ago, being In direct line
with the street railway depot, COM
mencing just east of the Administra-
ton building. This space was origin.
ally intended for the Midway, but, not
being easy accessible to the center OF
the electrical equipment, the shows
were located further north.
