FREE TO STARVE.
That Is About What the Workingman's
Liberty Amounts To.

Liberty Amounts o.
The Rev. Percy Stickney Grant. rec
tor of the Church of the Ascension,
New York, preached recently ON The
Workingman' Liberty to Starve." He
said that a man is seldom able to
choose his occupation and must do
what he can to keep himself in food
and clothing In that event it is not
a question of liberty, but of necessity,
according to DR.. Grant.
"If we are free at all we are free
to be sick or injured said Mr.. Grant,
1--WE are free to be subject to the
tyranny Of our employers, free to walk
In the streets and be killed by an au-
tomobile.
"If you were to double the working
force, couldn't you divide the hours in
two? That means that the drones
should be set to work. Under ra-
tional organization of industry a very
few hours would give mankind what
it enjoys today, and perhaps more.
If you wished to paint or write you
could have that pleasure; there would
be time to exercise the tempera-
mental gifts you possess.
"In the state of Wisconsin there is
said to be map showing the fer
tility of every ten acres of land with
In its borders A prospective pur-
chaser may look at the map and see
what he is to get. This Is considered
to be naturalization of agriculture.
But we need naturalization of human
industry. When that stage is reached
we will feel it as blow in the face
to be told that the worlingman is at
liberty to starve.'

THE NONUNlONlSTS ARE
RESPONSIBLE.

The nonunion men of this and
all other countries are respon-
sible for the employment of
child labor, for the spread of
consumption, for low wages and
for long hours in any branch of
labor, for the employment Of
convicts in competition with free
labor-responsible for all ugly
things from which labor suffers.
Terrible indictment this, isn't
it? But true-true in every
sense, for if there were no non
union men the unions would be
able to bring about all needed
reforms and make life for all
what it should be.

Arkansas Fruit Ripening
Special to the News.

Special to the News
 tt. Smith, April 12.-The rail roads are making preparations for the berry shipment from western Arkansas to metropoli- tan markets. Within the next few weeks tens of thousands of dollars worth of strawberries alone, to say nothing of other kinds of fruit, will be shipped out of this district. In the rail way transportation offices, plans are being made to assemble re- frigerator cars at fruit-growing centers and run special trains bearing nothing but berries.
 Berry conditions are not so good this year as they were last. However, the quality of the fruit promises to be good, and the financial returns considerable. Reports from Judsonia are to the effect that more cars will be ship ped than last. In 1907, the first year of the development of the straw berry crop at Judsonia,

nineteen cars were shipped; in 1908, 60 cars were shipped out; in 1909, 16S cars were loaded with Judsonia berries, and the two hundred cars expected to be shipped this year will break the record.
 Heavy shipments of radishes are expected from Hope which will be handled by express.

Murray contracts with the Choctaw
and Chickasaw Indians, involving the
sale Of tribal property that contained
rich mineral deposits. Senator Gore
told the committee that when he
frowned on the bribery offer, Harmon
said the amount might be raised to
$4,000.
Harmon also told me that Sena-
tor Charles Curtis of Kansas and Con-
gresham B. S. Mcclure of Oklahoma
were interested in the McMurray con.
tracts" testified Senator Gore. And
while I am about it I might as well
tell that he said an official higher up
in the government was also interested
in the deal"
Vice-President Sherman then was
named by Senator Gore as the man
higher up" quoted in connection with
the McMurray contracts.
When he named persons higher
up" continued Senator Gore, 81 held
up my hands in establishment and
said, is it possible that a person so
high in the United States government
could lay himself open to such an i'm
putation?'
Well replied Harmon, this is
lots of money, you see.'"
What in considered the most valu-
able testimony to Gore, was that Of
Congressman Creagor of the Third
Oklahoma district. Creagor said he
had been approached on various oc.
casions and urged to support the Nc
Murray contracts.
Senator Curtis wired the commit
tee that the use of his name in con-
nection with the investigation was I'M
authorized and he wanted to give tes-
timony. He was wired by Chairman
Burke to come to Muskogee.

S. Sherman nailed as false the implied
