THE AMAZING BLACKNESS OF
THE POT

Duluth Herald: When the re-
publican pot is arraigned for it's most
uncommon blackness. 1t is the habit OF
It's defenders to point to the smut on
the democratic kettle.
The republican party has it's
Caunons and Aldriches and Cranes and
Burrowses and Shoots, ana the dem:
ocratic party its Fitzgeralds and
Balleys. Some of tho democratic
statesmen admittedly have been
serviceable to the Aldrich- Cannon
Mogan organization of the republican
party and to the things it represents:
The chief trouble about this sort Of
pot and kettle argument Is that it
serves to call attention to condition
that the democrats, if they wish,
might make much capital out OF.
This IL the condition.:
When a republican statesman wishes
to be right, he has to insurge.
When a democratic statesman in
surges 1t IS when he wishes to be
wrong.
Republican insurgents are the leaven
of decency and patriotism which the
republican party IS striving desperate
ly to eliminate.
Democratic insurgents are the faint
of unfaithfulness to free government
of which the party should be able to
purge itself without great difficulty;
tween the ''in'' and the ''outs. "
The ms draw every parasite.
every greedy interest, every sycophant
of Special Privileges; and the re-
publican party has come absolutely
into the control of these noisome
elements of society. The "ins' party,
IN course of time, inevitably becomes
corrupted and debased by. the in
fluences its prosperity attracts.
The ''outs, on the other hand, offer
little encouragement to the forces OF
c orrupton. While the ''lns' are being
corrupted by power, the ''outs'' are
being purified by political poverty:
Thus the one is rlpened for defeat and
the other strengthened for victory.

The Transcript evidently wants to
keep up the impression that there was
no fight IN the republican caucuses,
as there was no mention that there

mention that there was in Thursdays

ty and thirty people lost their lives
when the supports Of the sprinkler
system tank on the roof of the Herald
building gave, way and the great mass
of metal and water, weighing thirty
five tons, went crashing to the base.

Fire broke out Immediately, adding
its horrors to the disaster. The fire.
men displayed splendid heroism in res
cuing scores of people from perilous
positions in the lettering walls. Some
of the walls had to come down before
the work Of recovering the bodies
could be safely attempted. =
The first warning of the impending
disaster passed almost unnoticed.
There was slight cracking; then a
little more, somewhat more pro.
nounced, but it was not until the CELL
ing plaster began to fall that a rush
for the stairway began. Before any
one reached it there occurred final
deafening crash and then chaos. Some
survivors tell of falling one and two
floors before the awful crash died
away and then they found themselves
able to crawl through the dense dust
to a place Of safety. The majority
sought safety by rushing to the front
of the building. Fortunately all the
floors held about thirty feet from
the front wall, and to this is due the
fact that the death list did not run
into the hundreds, for there were
nearly 800 people in the building at
the time.
Girl Displays Great Heroisn.
One ladder was hoisted, reaching to
the fourth floor, on which the bindery
was located. It came between two
windows. From one of these a little
girl crept along the coping until she
could reach the ladder. Grasping a
rung with one hand and placing foot
on another, she lent helping hand
to eight or ten girls twice her size.
When all the girls had reached the
ladder and had been brought down to
safety she came down alone.
A dozen injured people were brought
from the ruins by the firemen, many
OF them with broken limbs.
All of the members Of the editorial
staff escaped unframed, their quar-
ters being located in the front of the
building. John G. Walsh, editor otthe
paper, and the members Of the staff
were taken from windows by flremen,
The fire started from the stereotyp.
ing department, the red hot Goals from
the furnace evidently being distribut,
cd on the different floors through
which the pots passed on their way to
the basement, for the fire appeared to
start almost 81 multaneously on all the
lower floors.
The building was valued at $15o,0oo
and was owned by the Herald com.
pany, while the valuation of the plant
is placed at 100000. About hall the
linotype battery remained in position

The insurance on the building and
plant totals $4,000.
