Truly the knocker has fallen
upon hard times. The virtue OF
the present day OF strenuous
activity is that IL has no time or
place for sloth or envy. IL
crowds TO the rear the man with
the hammer. II moves on past
him, leaving him alone with his
crouch, The only way he can
catch up is to drop his handicap
and hurry.
People are getting happier, il
they are net getting holier and
the former is good omen of
the latter. They have plenty Of
time to work in that which is
worth while, or even TO play, and
il is one of the wholesome indica-
tions of a healthy life that people
in this country play as hard as
they work. But business and
pleasure have turned their backs
upon thecknocker, setting their
faces to brighter skies.
So if you are at outs with
somebody settle the matter with
him; do not bother me with it.
That is the answer of the world
today, a good one, too. Even in
sports this wholesome spirit
prevails; indeed it dominates
there perhaps more than any
where else. II takes the form
OF intolerance, it is SO pronounc-
ed. II is the spirit>of a manly
age, a big age and fast too big
and fast to slow mp for the little
fellow. Bee.

While there are some Repubii-
cans in Missouri who are not
ready to condemn the Republican
Insurgents at Washington there
are few indeed who are ready to
relinquish the hope of placing
Missouri permanently in the list
of reliably Republican States.
There is harmony, unity of pur-
pose and loyalty among the Re-
publicans of Missouri this year.

One thing Missouri needs i'm.
peratiyely is o better system of
assessing property for taxation,
not a higher rate Of taxation on
any property but a fair valuation
o I all taxable property. The
rate is all right but a system OF
valuation under which that rate
may be applied TO 100 per cent
OF the real value OF one mans
property and only 20 per cent OF
the real value OF another mans
property is not all right.

There is an old saying that
talk is cheap, but words are
costly and dangerous sometimes.
Women are accused Of being
gossipers because they meet oc-
casionally and all talk at once.
Men talk every day and one at a
time, which makes their words
doubly dangerous, for every
word is heard. Men make verb
al statements they won't put
down in black and white. Talk
ing carelessly is dangerous and
injurious, and does no good to
either the speaker or the victim.
Half that is said is not really
meant nor believed, even by the
author of the statements. Ask
a man if his neighbor is honest
and be will Immediately reply
with emphasis that he is, yet he
will unthoughtedly make a re
mark detrimental to that neigh
boris reputation for honesty.
So many people will make damag-
ing statements that they would
not make, if they would think
twice before speaking once

INJUNCTION AGAINST
MATTRESSES IS BLOW
TO CAUSE Of WOMEN

CHICAGO, Sept. 2.-The injunc-
tion just issued against the Wait
resses' union by Judge Richard S.,
Tuthill, chancellor of the circuit
court-the same judge whose motor
lous injunction against the womens
10-hour law was reversed by the SUI
preme court of Illinois to
draw into the struggle some of the
most noted women in Chicago, name-
ly, Mrs. Raymond Robbins and Alice
Henry, of the Womens' Trade Union
Leagues, and Jane Adams, of Hull
house fame. These three women,
assert leaders in charge of the strike,
are not only in sympathy with the
Mattresses union but are we'll aware
of the effect of this legal blow upon
the entire uplift movement among
Chicago's working women which they
have done so much to foster.
The Injunction, which was asked
for in behalf of Mrs. Mailer, a res
taurant keeper at 279 La Sale street,
| is among the most binding ever is
sued, restraining the strikers as we'll
as all other members of the union
from picketing around the restaurant,
from approaching employees, from Wis
! iting the homes of girls employed by
Mrs. Mailer and from many other
acts. -. - -. 80:
! The Mattresses union was not rep
resented in court when the injunc-
ton was applied for.
In her bill of complaint Mrs, NAH
lei. .scharges that the agreement be-
tween her and~the- Waitresses' 'oufnnfo union
is illegal and void because the sasgaree->
ment calls for closed shop, and a
closed shop, she declares, is against
PUBLIC policy in the state of Illinois.
+. Continuing her complaint it is also
set forth that in the past years there
have been many, numerous, and
dreadful assaults committed by the
strikers and their associates and
that the effect of successive strikes
is to intimidate employees who are
anxious and willing to remain en-
ployed.' :
