Kentucky Irish American. (Louisville, Ky.) 1898-1968, 1909-07-03
OUR ELEVENTH BIRTHDAY.

Healthy, hearty and happy the
Kentucky Irish American greets you
on this, the eleventh anniversary of
its first publication. 1t has moved
along over numerous obstacles and
has encountered various vicissitudes
during it's eleven years, but it is
still here. The Kentucky Irish
American strives to be a newspaper,
not a magazine; to chronicle as
many local and foreign events inter-
esting to Kentucky Irish-Americans
as is consistent with its size. 1t has
fought for right and has upheld
whatever it believed to be right at
all times. The Kentucky Irish
American stands for the whole
people, not for any class, and it
strives to have abuses corrected
whenever they appear. 1t has en-
joyed a generous patronage since it
was established and has only words
of thanks for its readers and
advertisers.

ANZEIGER JUBILEE.

The publishers of the Anzeiger,
Louisville's great German daily,
showed their American local con-
temporaries a trick or two last Sun
day. The jubilee number commem-
Grating the siXtieth anniversary of
its origin has never been surpassed
in Louisville. 1t was well edited and
from typographical standpoint as
near perfect as newspapers can be.
1t showed the broad mind of an able
business manager, the discernment
of the editors, the efficiency of its
composing room force and mastery
press work. The Kentucky Irish
American wishes the Anzeiger many
more years of success.

Robert Emmett escaped from Ireland
and became a noted lawyer in New
York? The Louisville Post is noted
not only for its inaccuracy and for
the injudicious coloring it gives to
matters, but for the absolute and
apparently malicious falsity of many
of its alleged news items.

ABOUT OBLIGATIONS.

On Tuesday the following ap-
peared in the editorial columns of
the Louisville Evening Post: THE
public has not the right to expect of
newspaper absolute accuracy.
What it has a right to ,expect and
what it should, but does not always
insist upon, is absolute honesty; a
consistent effort to print the news
of the day correctly, suppressing
nothing and coIoring nothing"
What do you think of that coming
from the same paper that said

TAKE CARE OF BOYS.

The editor of the Shelby Record
says: IF you want to give a little
boy, from six to ten years old, a
start for the penitentiary just allow
him the privilege of running on the
streets until late bedtime. 1t is
there he learns his first crime. 1t is
there he gets his first lessons in
vulgar, obscene language and his
start for prison is made" Why not
raise the age from ten to twenty
years, Brother Shinnick?

TO LESSEN MINE DANGERS.
Safety Devices Suggested BY John
Mitchell, Former Coal Miner.

Safety Devices Suggested BY John
Mitchell, Former Coal Miner.
'Coal mining is the most hazardous
industry In America"
John Mitchell. vice president Of the
American Federation of Labor, who
for nearly ten years was president of
tie United Mine Workers and who
himself was q digger Of coal from the
time he was thirteen years old until
he attained the age Of twenty-five
years, made this statement In COM
menting on the disaster at the mine Of
the st. Paul Coal company at Cherry.
ILL.,. on Nov. IL, In which nearly 300
men lost their lives.
Mr.. Mitchell suggests several safety
devices. One is the installation of tel
ephone systems in mines. Another Is
the laying Of pipes throughout the gal
eries and workings through which air
or liquid food could be pumped in case
OF accident. A third suggestion is that
mines be fitted with air tight compart-
ments communicating with the surface
which would serve as Ravens of refuge
in case Of disaster.
The Cherry mine disaster had it's ORR
gin IN pile OF hay used to feed mules
stationed in the mine. A careless min
er threw torch upon 1t, and the TIM
bers Of the mine later caught fire.
.'Of course these ca'amities always
suggest means by which lives thus lost
might have beer saved said Mr.
Mitchell. "If coal mines we're equip
ped with telephones throughout theil
workings II would be possible for mel
entombed to LEI those on the outside
know the location of the plae G in which
they were gathered. or at least to lie
them know what was their condition
| And thus the work of rescue woult
be greatly aided.
III mines were equipped in all thei
| galleries with pipes through whicl
| compressed air could be forced TIL
needed oxygen could be supplied. An
In like manner It would also be pos
sible to supply food, at least food Il
4 liquid form, to sustain life for fey
days. No mines are equipped wit
| such devices as these, and my sug
gestion is not directed to the Cherr
mine alone.
"A very simple device which woul
be Of advantage In all mines in th
event Of fire, explosion or any othe
accident which would cut on egress
the main shaft would be the buildin
Of number Of compartments, eac
large enough for hundred or MOI
men to gather in, SO arranged that II
doors could be closed, making the
air tight. lfsthese compartments we
connected with air pipes to the snrfat
they would be Ravens of safety *
great numbers Of men killed In mine
not by explosions themselves, but b
the afterdamp that always accum1
lates after explosions. This is done
European mines and has been tt
means Of saving large numbers
men entombed through fire or expl
| sion."

which contain the cotton. The balls on
the limbs near the bottom are full
grown and are about the size of wal
nuts with bulls left on. The younger
and smaller balls which are rapidly
growing larger are the middle limbs.
The top branches are covered with
green leaves among which are still
smaller balls and blooms.
At first the whole plant is covered
with leaves but as the stalks grow
they drop off and the balls begin to
ripen. A field of riDening cotton is
one of the most beautiful sights in the
world. If you pick some of the balls
which are bursting you will find they
are soft and clean. The cotton bios
som is shaped a little like holy
hook At first it is white and the next
day 1t is red.
AS soon are the balls. on the lower
branches begin to ripen picking time
begins At some places it begins In
July and often continues until Christ
mas. The field must be gone over
many times The cotton is then taken
to the gin where it Is made into bales
and then it is taken to the factory and
made into cloth.

Once week Emily had to sit down
in the dining room and darn one pail
of stockings. She thought. it was the
hardest work in all the world, because
Aunt Matilda was very difficult to
please. and often took out all the
stitches when she had finished, and
made her do them all over. Darning
day had come again, and she had to
mend a big hole in the toe of one OF
the stockings she hated most of all.
IF had little girl" she thought, as
she pushed her needle in and out, I'D
never make her wear such things"
Just in front was a robin pulling at
worm in the grass. He gave Jerk and
out flew the work, and over went the
bird, right on his back. Emily laugh
ed out loud as she saw sim, and her
aunt looked into the room. Let me
see the stocking" she said, taking IL
from the little girls hand. why, En-
lily, what stitches" she. said. AS soon
as she had left the room Emily threw
the stocking on the floor. "Horrid
thing!" she said to it as it lay there.
Then Emily climbed down from the
corn crib, and walked slowly up the
path to the house. Aunt Matilda was
looking out of the window and she
gave sigh of relief when she saw
her. '"That child needs playmates," she
said to herself. mo wonder she is
queer"
