destroy annually a million dollars
worth of property-who would expect
anything but hard times and poverty in
that city? But here we have a popula,
ton of working men that would make
"a city of about that size. robbed every
year of more than a million dollars
by the saloon, losing their money as
certainly as if they burned it up in
the furnaces that they tend.
And yet there is no voice of warn
ing, no protest of education or religion,
no hand of the law to protect the
weak-just the brutal grinding of their
bodies and souls that the brewers and
distillers may get rich, and the graft
ers in public office may have the where
withal to crafty their own base appe"
tites.
GREAT BARRIER TO WAGE FARMERS
The United States bureau of labor
reports that ninety per cent of the
railways, seventy-nine per cent of the
manufacturers, eight-eight per cent of
the trades and seventy-two per cent of
the agriculturists discriminate against
employees addicted to Intoxicating
drinks.
Since it is a recognized fact every
where that the liquor traffic sis en-
gagged in the business of making men
worth less to their families, less to
their business, less to religion, less to
society and less to their country, is it
not strange that no one wants the
drunkard." 1t is not strange that in
surance companies will not take the
dgunkard, nor that positions of respon-
sibility are closed to him, that fac
tories shut their doors in his face. that
large stores and offices have no use for
him, that railroads ignore him, that

for export"
w. B. Ferguson, editor of the Ma
tional Prohibitionist. writing of the
conditions he witnessed at the great
steel mills of South Chicago, says:
At every gate of the mills, except
the one gate that opens into prohibit
tiOn territory, a battery of saloons
waits to rob the laborers of their
money and give them in return poi-
son for body, brain and soul. On pay
day the painted harlots Of these dives
swarm at the very gates and capture
their victims. Hundreds of men come
here, leaving their families across the
seas, with the laudable ambition to
earn money enough to bring their wives
and children and establish homes in
this Gland of the free.'' Week by week,
and month by month, and year by
year, they toll here for scanty wage,
and are robbed of that pHder the seal
and sanction of the people of the city
of Chicago of the good state of Illi-
nois, and of the United States of Amer
lea. Their wives and children wait
forever beyond the sea-. The dreamed
of homes are never built.
1t is probably a conservative esti-
mate to assume an average daily re-
ceipt of twenty-five dollars for each of
these one hundred twenty-three places
shown on the map. Even this means
that every year these places of vicious
resort steal from the working men of
these mills the enormous sum of ST.
122,375.
Suppose some little city of twenty
thousand or twenty-five thousand in
habitants should be, year after year,
swept by confiagrations which would

to Close the Deal

Closely following the announcement
that in all probability the electric car
shops will be located just north of
Lawndale Mesa comes the cheering
news that there is possibility of the
$10,000,000 steel plant being located east
of Lawndale.
A prominent Los Angeles company
has donated $50 acres to L. S. Barnes,
who represents those interested in the
project for the purpose of erecting the
$10,00O,000 steel plant that is to be
established in this vicinity. Mr.. Barnes
has been sumoned east to confer with
those interested in the building of the
big plant and will leave in q few days
There is absolutely no doubt about
the establishment of the plant" said
Mr.. Barnes just before leaving. 1--WE
expect to have all details so arranged
as to be able to begin construction by
the first day of next year."
Those who have been fortunate
enough to secure property at Lawndale
are congratulating themselves on their
foresight.

LOCAL LAND COMPANY
HAS PLEASING SUCCESS

The Pacific Fruit and Alfalfa Land
company, who recently placed "a 3OOU-
acre subdivision on the market at
Ducor, Tulare county, state that their
twenty and forty-acre tracts are being
picked up fast. Over fifty prospective
purchasers have visited their tract in
the last three weeks, and all have
been greatly pleased with same. Near
ly every one tates that it is much
better than they expected to find it.
Sales in the amount of $79,640 have
been made in the same length of time,
which goes to show that their land
must be all they advertise it to be.

society ostraciZes him, and that the
church cannot accept him. The only
strange thing is that in view of these
well-known facts, any intelligent man
who Has any business aspirations what
ever, will dare imperil himself by pat
ronizing this destroyer of manhood
the saloon.
Circulars of inquiry were sent by the
United States commissioner of labor
to 1000 labor-emplOying concerns, all
of which were representative in their
lines of business. There were 1916 re-
plies received. OF these 1868 state that
they take the drink habit into consider
alton in employing new men. The rea-
son given by most is that it is simply
a business precaution.
Many say, 'The young man who
drinks has simply nc chance with us if
we can get those who do not drink"
One of our great railroad corpora
tions recently found that forty per
cent of all accidants were due alto
gether or in part to the failure of the
men who were given to drink; that
eighteen per cent lad strong suspicion
of similar causes if not clear proof. In
one year over one million dollars
worth of property was destroyed by
the failures of beer-drinking engineers
and switchmen on this road alone"
Other railroad companies found the
same thing to be true of their en-
ployes: so have taken action forbid
ployes. A list of thirty-nIne such COM
panies was recently compiled by Of

When public sentiment is aroused
against an existing evil and good peo-
pie combine in an effort for its over
throw, their success is certain and bet
ter conditions are established. Not
Withstanding the powerful influence OF
the whisky interests and the millions
of dollars with which they retain that
influence in government. the handwrit-
ing upon the walls of their strong
holds has been read with fear and
trembling.
The leading minds of the day are
protesting against the liquor tratt1c.
Educational methods are adopted which
show and teach the injurious effects
Of alcohol upon the human system.
Ernest Gordon, in the Union Signal,
writes of the sentiment abroad and
quotes eminent authorities on temper
ance. He says:
ITO no man does the temperance
movement on the continent owe more
than to Professor Forel. the distin-
guished scientist, for many years pro-
tessor in the University of Zurich, and
a writer of great fertility and great
ability. For the freeing of the race
from the horror of alcoholism he en-
cages in the humblest, as well as the
most physically eXacting work. just
now he has been travelling throughout
the continent from Belgium to Asia
Minor founding neutral Good Templar
lodges. Recently he has been in Milan
helping the movement there. Each
evening for a week was given to con-
ferences with the workers as to meth
ods for the cure of alcoholists and for
the enlightenment of the public. The
days were spent in visits to drunkards
in the hospitals and in their homes.

$4,000 IS
GIVEN FOR
THE CHURCH

AoP01AaA ~ - iA
Indiana Harbor, Nov. 1.-St. Patrick's
church fair and bazaar passed into his
tory Saturday after a most successful
three days run.
1t is estimated that no less than
SO, 900 was cleared by the event. to say
nothing of the added good fellowship
that was established among the parish
toner's themselves and between the
church under whose auspices the affair
took place and the other religious de-
nominations.
A noteworthy feature of the bazaar
was that much of the patronage came
from non Catholics, a fact which is at
tributable to Father Mungoven's per-
sonal popularity even more than to the
excellent management and hard work
of the faithful who saw the bazaar
through to success.
The baby contest in which a dozen
of the favorite infant sons and daught-
ers of Indiana Harbor were entered,
won for the fair the sum of $235 at
once cent a chance. Fay T~empleton
was the winner and she captured by
reason of her popularity a handsome
doll in a mauve colored satin gown,
fashioned up to the minute, with hobbIe
skirt and all of the rest of the modlsh
touches.
Because of the success of this con-
test from a financial standpoint, Father
Mungoven decided to give each of the
babies entered a doll, SO none need feel
sighted.
Miss Pearl Barnes took the highest
honors in the personal popularity con
test for women in which she and Miss
, Minnie McAnley were engaged and
and Frank Callahn won out in the con
test between himself and John Kamradt
The latter netted just . trif1e under
six hundred dollars and the former
something over $500. Father Nun
goven was unqualified in his praise Of
the efficient work done by all the con
testants. In speaking of John Kamrad'
he said that the church owed him a big
debt of gratitude not only for his sha
in the contest. but for his i~ndefatiga-
Bile services in entertaining and ir
helping out at every point where help
\ was needed.
Everybody had a good word to say
for Father Mungoven and much praise

the first section OF which work has al
ready started.
The supper was participated in by
between three and our hundred per-
sons and everybody went away con-
WINGED that the ladies of the guild knew
how to concoct first class pie n a l
chicken gravy. to say nothing of ex-
cellent cabbage and the rest of the
accessories
The event took place in Ciine's hall
and for a while it looked as though
the guild woud not be abe to accom-
Imodate all who came to contribute
their mite to the cause of the new
church and incidentally to satisfy the
inner man with a god diner. Only for
a while, however, for the capable wo-
men VINO were running the affair, did
not allo themselves for one moment to
be amp but by keeping their heads
cool and their feet and fingers busy
they managed to lake care of every
man, woman and child present.
The service was excellent and every
body went away feeling that they had
been given the full worth of their
money, to say nothing of being hlled
with satisfaction of having helped to
contribute to a most worth cause.
