DEBS REMEMBERS
The FORUM
SENDS FORUM REPORTER WHO
INTERVIEWED HIM CONCERN
ING PRESIDENT TAFT PHOTO
AND COPY OF POEM ON LABOR
LEADERS, HOME TOWN.

Eugene v. Debs, the socialist and
labor leader who paid President Taft
such a high compliment in an inter
view granted The Forum when on his
recent visit to Fargo, has acknowl-
edged his appreciation of the arti
which appeared about him in The
Forum. Thursday the representative
of The Forum who interviewed Mr.
Debs week ago, received a photo
graph of the thrice socialist candidate
for the presidency, together with a
cory of one OF Mr.. Debs' books. Az
companying the picture and the liter
airy effort was copy of James Whit
comb Riley's poem on the labor leaders
home town, Terre Haute, Ind.
Endorsed Taft.
1t will be recalled that when i'll
Fargo a week ago, Mr.. Debs stated to
The Forum his Endorsement of Pre8i-
dent Taft in these words: II believe
absolutely in the sincerity of President
Taft; think he is safe and sane and
iaboring for the best interests of the
people as he sees it. He is not a
Grandstander FOR spectacular"
Further than this Mr.. Debs ex-
pressed himself quite freely about the
democratic party, stating that it had
no excuse to exist. In his own words
he said the democratic platform was
nothing in the world but catch or
drag net with which to scoop up every
thing and allow nothing to escape,
without committing itself in the least
on anything. And it's just the same
case today in this present gubernator-
iaI and congressional campaign"
RiIey's Poem.
The poem of the hoosier poet, James
Whitcomb Riley, known the world over
for his quaint verses in the old-time
huosier dialect, is about Mr.. Debs'
home town, Terre Haute pronounced
Terry Hut" by the native hoosiers)
on the Wabash river. In one of the
verses it mentions the city's famous
men, abiding to the great labor leader
along with the late Indiana senator,
Daniel VOORHEES,, whose nickname waa
"the tall sycamore of the Wabash"
Following is the verse of Mr.. Riley's
poem Terry Hut, wherein mention IS
made of Mr.. Debs:
Take, even, craftsmanship and wit,
And gineral git-up and git
Ole Terry Hut is sound clean through
Turn ole Dick Thompson loose, or Dan
Voorhees-and where's they any man
Kin ever hold a candle to
Their eloquence? And where's as
clean
A fi-nan-seer as Rile McKeen-
in his daily walk,
And there's Gene Debs-a man at
stands
And jest holds out in his two hands
AS warm a heart as ever beat
Betwixt here and the Judgement Seat
All these is reasons why I putt
SIGH bulk O. faith in Terry Hut"

Danger in the Streets.

With the coming % the autumn comes
again a problem of the streets which
calls for authoritative attention and &C
ton.
II is problem created by the free
use of the streets by children and
growR-up young folks incident to the
enjoyment of the heaIthfuI pastime OF
roller skating. These pleasant evenings
many thoroughfares are actually con-
gested with skaters moving hitler and
thither in utter disregard of the dan
ger incident to the diversion. The fact
that accidents costing life or limb are
not happening is remarkable. considering
the constant risk and invitation TO acct
dents. II speaks inpressively of the
care exercised by automobiles to avoid
running the skaters down.
The streets really are for carriages and
automobiles. not a playground for chill
dren, and il would be a harsh policy 10
bar the skaters from the streets. as is
frequently suggested. But they might
with propriety, and in the interest of
their OWN personal safety, be barred
from the buster and much-traveled thor
oughfares, where the danger is the great
est. The Avenue and Seventh and Four
teenth streets. for example, should never
be given 70 the use Of skaters, day or
evening; and the same is true Of other
thoroughfares, like Sixteenth street and
Massachusetts avenue, which are always
alive with automobiles.
If parents will not keep their children
from imperiling their lives, then it be-
comes the duty Of the authorities to
make regulations or restrictions that Will
reduce the peril.

TO-DAY IN HISTORY.
The Mountain Meadows Massacre September IS.

On September IS, 1851 occurred the IA
nous Mountain Meadows massacre in
Utah a crime which. at the time, stirred
the country from one end to the other.
II was committed against a party Of emil
grants from Arkansas and Missouri who
were passing through the State on their
way TO California. They numbered in all
about 40 men. women, and children. They
were refused food everywhere until they
reached the neighborhood Of Mountain
Meadows, a valley in Iron County, about
800 miles south of salt Lake City. Here
they stopped TO rest their horses, and
were fired upon by Indians, and. it Is al
legged. by Mormons disguised. They with
stood the siege until September IS. when,
on promise Of protection from John D.
Lee, Mormon bishop and Indian agent
they left the shelter of their wagons.
All adults and children under seven
years old were killed. and seventeen
younger children were distributed among
Mormon families, but were afterward
restored to relatives by the United States
government. Lee was executed for this
crime in 1877. and. though the effort to
inculpate other high officers of the
church failed, there can be little doubt
that the project was known and approved
by them, especially since Brigham Young
had a short time before announced that

pass into or through or from this Terri

judge, Johnston furnished a military de-

Utah was settled by the Mormons in

two years there was no secular govern

Smoking and Women.

A good deal has been said within the
past few months about women who
smoke-usually cigarettes. Prominent So
ciety women have been assailed; there
have been discussions, pro and con. with
d fair consensus OF opinion. as result,
whether a woman should have the right to
please herself, That cigarette smoking
among the fair sex is on the increase
there is little room for doubt. on the
Continent OF Europe the habit is taken as
matter of course. Just as they have
learned to regard many other things
the Engllshman's travelling bath tub, the
rings in the ears Of Spanish men. and
other customs which are tolerated-as the
business alone Of those who practice
them
In this country there is back Of the
discussion of women smoking something

which SO largely informs the American
character We rather feel We are in
duty bound to be shocked when it is pro
posed by certain cafe proprietors 10 al
low smoking by women in the evenings.
OF when Chicago or ST Louis theater
plans 20 provide separate smoking par
lors for ladies.
One very sane and practical argument
against women smoking was brought up
the other day before the womans branch
OF the National Association of Retail
Druggists. The members adopted resolu-
lions against the use Of cigarettes by
women, not on any grounds of social
ethics or petty morals but on the high
moral ground that women had no right
to smoke. because cigarettes are UNI
healthy. and the smoking OF them by
women would be bound to be felt by their
children; also II was pointed out that Gig
arettes are bad for the complexion-an
argument that must bear lot of weight

1t is quite sure that such a sensible
and calm view of the subject by such
