WON BY ORGANIZED LABOR.

Herbert N. Casson wields power
full pen. In his "Organized SeH-Help,"
he says:
"The high rate of wages in this
country, compared with Europe and
Asia, is not accidental. It is not due
to the greater benevolence on the part
of American capitalists. It is not due
to the fact that this is new com-
try; the Canadian province of Quebec
is a new country, yet the wages are
lower there than In England. It Is
due to the seventy-five years Aght
against low wages made by ORGANIZED
labor. Is
This country was not a working
mans paradise when it was first set
tied. Every inch of progress for the
laborer has had to be fought for.
when America was a British col
ony the workingman had no more
rights than horse. A law was passed
in 1888 enacting that all master
wOrkmen' should be paid not more
than two shillings (4S cents) a day,
or 80 cents day and board. This
was the maximum rate. There was
no law to prevent the employer from
paying less. Any worker who demand
ed more than these rates was fined.
The wage-wOrker who tried to raise
the market price of his labor was re
garded as an anarchist and criminal
and dragged before the nearest
judge"

the Hon. Charles Stewart Rolls. cab
tain in the London section OF the
army motor reserve, driving Wright
biplane, vindicated Anglo-Saxon aer-
onautics by crossing the English
channel twice Wednesday evening
without alighting. He made the
round trip between Dover and Calais
in ninety minutes.
while two Frenchmen, Louis Bier
lot and Count de Lesseps, have cross
ed the channel in an aeroplane, II
remained for an Englishman, in an
American machine, to perform the
double feat. The distance across be-
tween the two points named is II
miles, so that his over water flight
of AZ miles without a stop estab-
fishes a new record.
Capt. Rolls left Dover at $50
o'clock. The atmospheric conditions
were excellent. He lost no time In
manoeuvres. but after describing a
circle, headed toward the coast OF
France. In anticipation Of the flight
torpedo boats steamed at full speed
across the Straits, but the pace OF
the aeroplane was swifter.

MANY WORKMBN KILLED.
Fatal Explosion in Utah Cement
Works Near Ogden.

twenty-five, workmen were killed
in an explosion Wednesday in q quar-
ry of the Union Portland Cement
Works at Devils Slide, Utah, thirty
miles east of Ogden.
The explosion blew down the tel
egraph and telephone poles and COM
munication with the scene of the
accident was limited to brief mes
sage sent out by courier from Nor
gan, Utah, soon after the disaster.
Most of the killed are japanese
AMI Greeks, who made up the quarry
,ang of 10 to 100 men. The injured
are reported to number nearly a
score.
The victims were blown to pieces
On the hillside overlooking the
scene, portions of arms and limbs
were picked up. Some of the bodies
were blown a hundred yards.
A premature explosion in tun'
mel in the hill above the cement
plant was the direct cause Of the ex'
ploson below. More than thirty
kegs of powder were stored neal
where the men were working.

KELLNER N MURDER
FURTHER TRACES OF DEED CON.
FIRM THEORY.
Charred Foot Of Little Alma .Kellner
Found In Basement Of Louisville

The unrayelling Of the knotty
skein of evidence confirming only too
we'll the theory that little Alma Kell-
ner was murdered in St. Johns Cath
Ollie Church, Louisville, KY, where
she went to worship on December 81
last, proceeded rapidly, but nothing
has been heard from the suspected
janitor.
The charred right foot of the
child was found Wednesday in a
pile of ashes near the furnace in
the basement of the church and near
it were picked out Of the refuse two
women's handkerchiefs. This makes
a total of FIVE handkerchiefs found
in two days, and some of them bore
blood stains.
The quick lime with which the
body was covered when found was
purchased, it was learned, at groc-
cry only a few blocks. away. Ac-
cording to the groceryman the order
for the lime was telephoned in from
St. Johns Church, and the barrel
of lime was delivered there soon az
ter Christmas and turned over to a
woman. AS it was a cash transac-
ton, no record was made of 1t, and
it is, therefore, impossible to give
the exact date.
In police court Mrs. Weddings
attorney asked Judge Boldrick to dis
charge her on the ground that she is
being held illegally and in violation
of Section 1929 Of the Kentucky
statutes, which provides that the
charge of accessory after the fact
does not exist as to the wife OF a
principal in crime. The motion will
be argued.
Mrs. Vending, who is confined In
the jail, said that she knew abso-
.lutely nothing of the murder, and
that she had no idea as to her hus-
bands whereabouts.
AS an excuse for the disappear
ance Of her husband MRS. vending
offered this:
"He was French-he was gay
Frenchman will take his head
unless he has work that he likes,
and the weather was so cold this
winter, and there was so much snow
and so many fires to make and the
work was so dirty, that, I think, was
why he left. He did not like Louis
Vile and he wanted to be with the
French people. never heard my
husband talk about his friends. l
know he deserted from the French
army. He told me so just before
we were married. l think we were
married about two years ago, on
the 18th of December.

HEIFER BROUGHT BIG PRICE.
Cattle Raising In South Carolina
Proves Profitable.

South Carolina's place in the cat

The mother, "Goldenferns Name

The above was brief summary
of the cold summer Of 1916, as it
was called, in order to distinguish 1t
from the cold season. The winter
was mild. Frost and ice were COM
mon in every month of the year.
Very little vegetation matured in
the Eastern and Middle States. The
suns rays seemed to be destitute of
heat throughout the summer; all
nature was clad in a sable hue, and
men exhibited no little anxiety con-
corning the future of this life.
