Slavery In Eratand.

StAN0ty ~ eh8s2s0s
Slavery existed In England without
any mitigating TEXTURES worth speak-
ing of until the time of the wars OF
the roses. RruCtOH. the famous law
yer Of the time of Henry ILL.,. informs
us that the condition Of slaves was
fearful. Ii was indeed slavery. pure
and simple. All the goods slave ac-
Quired belonged to his nmster. who
could take them from him whenever
he pleased. the slave having no re.
dress ut law: hence the impOssibiIity
OF mans purchasing his own free.
dom. The only hope for the slave was
to try to get into one OF the walled
towns when he became free. the towns
men granting him liberty on the con-
dition Of his helping them dght the
nobles.-New York American.

Mr.. Carriers address was in addition

Italian Railroad Laborers at Hanover,
Kan, Even Pool Their Pay Checks.
A bunch of Italian laborers who
have been doing construction work on
the st. Joseph and Grand Island rail-
way out of Hanover. Kan. have been
living practical demonstration of So
cialism. They are brotherhood with
in themselves, and grief is the lot of a
man of any other nationality who at
tempts to interfere with their arrange
mentS, nor is anybody out Of their clan
shown hospitality to an alarming ex-
tent. The Italian laborer is seldom
seen on the street alone. These Italians
go in twos and threes, no matter how
trifing their mission.
When it comes 10 money matters the
Italian also carries out his idea of So
cialism. When the pay checks arrive
one man is delegated as cashier. and
all checks are turned over to him in
dorsed. He then goes TO the bank TO
cash them. and. returning to the car.
the laborers gather around in a circle
and the cashier proceeds to deal out
the cash in equal amounts TO each
man. no matter what the amount of
the individual check might have been.
When one Of their number is taken
sick and unable TO work he receives
no pay check from the railroad COM
pany. but when pay day arrives he re-
ceives his per capita Of the gross
amount the same as If he had been
on the Job every minute. But the
Italians won't stand for soldering
that is. they won't allow drone to sip
the honey from their financial hive.
When they discover that one Of their
number is feigning Illness to avoid
work he is turned out OF the big fam
lily" bag and baggage.

many hunters regard their licenses as
