The labor world. [volume] (Duluth, Minn.) 1896-current, 1910-12-10
BY ROBERT HUNTER.

It came into my mind the other
day to write little tract for the In
dividual and Social Justice league OF
America.
|. The league intends to expose the
evils Of Socialism and that is most
excellent work to undertake. ....-
We are grateful for any aid this
association of clergymen can give III
in purifying our cause. : F.
I suppose these gentlemen of the
cloth will appreciate full confession
on the part of any high-minded So
cialist.
Wherever, therefore, the Socialists
find any evidence of free love, of anti
marriage and of atheism in their pro-
paganda, let them openly confess it.
AS evidence in this matter let US
sin State Federation of Labor. +.
Now that report shows what the
Socialists have tried to do in the Wis
consin legislature
A Socialist named Brockhausen
for instance, introduced in the as
semb1y a. bill to legalize certain acts
in furtherance of disputes between
employers and employees.
First, for the purpose of peacefully
obtaining or communicating informa.
ton.
Second, for. the purpose of peace.
fully pursuading a person to work OF
abstain from work. - .t...t...
Third, to legalize combined action
in furtherance Of a trade dispute.
Fourth, to prevent damage suit,
against trade union organizations fol
acts of its individual members.
Another Socialist named Weber in.
troduced a bill to prevent private de-
tectives from harassing citizens . ir
the course of a trade dispute. p !.
He introduced another bill to give
poor. persons right of action In the
courts Of the state without payment
of cost. 2.E <
He also introduced resolution t
regulate the issuing. Of injunctions.
He also introduced a resolution ad,
vocating the government ownership
and operation of railroad, express
telegraph and telephone companies.

LOOK BEFORE YOU BUY!

Don't be misled by mail order
circulars. They read nice, the
pictures look nice, but the same
quality of goods can be bought
cheaper right in your own city,
of your own merchants, people
you know and see every day,
where you don't have to keep
goods if they are not as repre-
sented. '=*-@
There are other reasons why
you should patronize the home
merchant; and here are some Of
them: . 3. ,.,..
Because he helps to build: your
town, he contributes to every en-
terprise that helps to make q good
state, country or city government.
And when the rainy day comes,
he helps you by extending your
credit, he does 4 thousand things
in which you enjoy the benefits.
Why not return the favor?

HARRIET BURT,
Clever Singing comedienne Who Is
With DeWolf Hopper.

For the first time in about fifteen
years DeWolf Hopper was seen at the
Odeon last night Shorn of paint and
gaudy colors which the big comedian
wore for years while in comic opera,
Mr.. Hopper appeared in citizens
clothes in his latest musical piece "A
Matinee IDOL" by E. Ray Goetz and
Seymour Brown and Armand Barnard.
Altlao it takes an audience a little
time to realize that Hopper is the old
Hopper known years ago, because of
his native costume, the play barely gets
in motion, and introduces the eminent
tragedian" before Richard is found to
be himself again.
In fact the comedy of "A Matinee
Idol" is pretty much Dewolf Hopper,
ably assisted by Georgia Mack, diminu-
tive and boyish in appearance. but in
real life IS and the father of one. The
contrast between CULVER and the
Liliputian was enough to make anyone
but a chronic sobersides laugh, even
if there We're no dialog.
Mr.. Hopper was handicapped last
night by having a severe cold that re-
suited in his being able to speak
scarcely above a whisper. He went
thru the motions of his songs at least,
despite the handicap, and his audience
forgave all.
Another handicap, altho had the fact
been unknown no one would have sur
missed but that the big comedian felt
Just as he acted, was in the fact that
Mr.. Hoppers mother had died the day
before in New York, and this was his
last appearance before he left for the
east to attend the funeral. Mr.. Hop
per showed by no outward expression
his inward grief.
"a Matinee Idol' is not strong
musically, and the chorus. while not
bad. is not particularly strong.
Harriet Burt, popular with local
audiences, ard last seen here three sea-
sons ago in The Time. the Place, and
the Girl" proved to have lost none of
her popularity. Miss Burt was not in
her usual good voice, owing to a Sc
we're cold, but sang very pleasinglv
When the lights went out in the midst
of her I'm Looking For a Husband"
song, the Coincidence displayed her tall
ent for emergencies by keeping on with
the song and dance, and securing a
candle from the wings to finish the
number.
The audience was very much pleased
with the performance, and repeatedly
recalled the performers. Mr. Hopper
responded with a happy little curtain
address.
The company has Cancelled its en-
gagement for tonight at Clinton, and
for Sunday night at Quincy. Ill. Mr..
Hopper left for New York directly af-
ter the performance and will be pres
ent at his mothers funeral on Sunday.
He joins his company again at Gales
burg on Monday.
