ZAFFER COMES IN FREE!

The Payne-Aldrich tariff law is
one of *'the best tariff bills'' ever
passed, says the president of the
United States. If you don't be.
lieve it, says Bill The Big, why,
examine the free list.
All right let's examine it,
To- begin with we find joss
sticks, bladders, dried blood and
horse hair! They're all admitted
free of duty. Then there are
birds eggs, lemon juice, turtles
and junk!
Then comes bones, acor11s,
ashes, zaffer, catgut, fossils, Bra
lillian pebbles and oakum!
It looks as if the Aldrichites got
together and thought of as many
things possible for which the ulti-
mate consumer has no earthly
use. Then they slapped them all
on the free list!

Think you that he will grow up
an admirer of capitalism and it's
blood-stained thugs? Into how
much less than an anarchist of the
most revolutionary type could he
be expected to develop. The
reading Of the story in cold type
alone makes the reader view the
prophecies of revolution with less
foreboding. r
1t is thus that capitalism is rap
idly, but none the less surely, rear
ing the frame work of the scaffold
on which it is destined to meet an
ignom inious doom.

eggs.
Who got the difference Of $24,-5
600, 600
The farmer raised the hens,
took care of them, fed them,
housed them, and paid about ST.
apiece for the care Of each one.
It cost him not less than $3.50,
600, 900 to keep the hens satisfied.
and prolific. So, all together his
earnings were reduced to $780,
100000. III.
But somebody else got $240, OOO,-
000-which is $90,000,00O more
than the farmer received.
From the time the eggs left the
farmer to the time they reached
the consumer the price on them
was almost doubled. And the
consumer, of course, paid. /
Somewhere there. is leech in
the egg market and the butter
market ! and the. meat market
and the grocery: market, that is
sucking away at the American
Consumers pocketbook.
: Until this leech is found and be-
headed prices of living will be
tremendously high and will grow
higher just so long as there re-
mains anything in the pocketbook
to be sucked out.
1t has not yet been shown that
the leech is not the railroad anil
express companies.
In 1909 the traction companies
increased their Indebtedness by
one billion and fifteen million dol
lars. The interest that is to be
paid on this, Of course, comes out
Of the public pocketbook.
And the express companies dur
ing The year paid dividends that
ranked among the highest on the
whole list of industrial institu-
tions.
They re expensive errand boys,
the railroads and the express COM
panies, who bring the eggs from
the farmer to you.

PARCELS POST WOULDN'T
HARM COUNTRY MERCHANT

Whenever the bill for the par
cells post comes up in congress
there is a great cutlery about the
country merchant: A parcels
post, it is said, will ruin the coun-
try merchant. The country
merchants are not making the out
cry. It is the express companies.
They overcharge the country
merchant and Cypress them to the
full extent Of their opportunities
and then get behind the country
merchants to protect their mono
poly.
The parcels post would not hurt
the country merchant. On the
contrary. it would enable him to-
do an order business for his pat
rons and to retail country pro-
ducts in the cities. A vast amount
OF food goes to waste on every
farm at time when people in the
cities have to pay big prices for
it. The cost Of transportation
and distribution is too great. A
family in London makes an ar
rangement with a farmer to send
a dozen fresh eggs by mail every
morning or two. Boxes for his
purposes are made, and the cost
of carrying a dozen eggs from any
part of England to the front door
OF a house in London lis 29d., or
5 cents. The London family can
get pound of fresh butter this
way, and other articles of food
can be obtained in the city by this
quick and inexpensive method.
Both the consumer and the farmer
in this country would profit enor-
mously by this plan.
In England the postoffice seems
to be conducted for the conven-
fence of the people. In the United
States one of the main objects
seems to be the emolument of the
railroads and the protection Of
the express company monopoly.

MUST EDUCATE FARMER
TO BE LABoR'S FRIEND

1t is daily becoming more evil
dent that to become the friend Of
organized labor, which the trend
of social history intends he should,
the farmer must first of all be
educated to the aims and desires
of the great movement. Until
this is done no organization will
be safe from him in his error.

with white PHOSPHORUS.
Nearly all the countries Of Europe
have either prohibited the use of
white PHOSPHORUS or endeavored to
restrict most stringently it's uses
But, of course, America has done
nothing.
Ohio,-N New York, Pennsylvania, Ok
1ahoma have endeavored to prevent
employers from using children of ten
der years in match manufacture, bu,
they do not succeed even in that.
And SO America enjoys the distinc-
ton of being in this, as in many
other matters, the most barbarous
country in the world
An inquiry has ben made into the
subject by John 3. Andrews, which
is now published in Bulletin So of the
Bureau of Labor at Washington.
1t is not pleasant reading, especi-
ally that part which deals with a
score or more workers who have been
poisoned in this industry.
Anna was one of the match girls
VINO died of PHOSPHORUS poisoning.
She began work at fourteen years
OF age. After she had worked a few
months she felt sensitive to cold and
heat in tooth that had been filled
The tooth was finally extracted, and
1t was discovered that at the roots
there was pus from poisoned law.
An abcess extended down the side
of the neck and the bones were in
volved.
She suffered terrible agony: could
not eat and slowly starved to death
AS result of the poison.
The story of Anna is Just that of
one little girl, but the scientific in
vestigator at Washington tells ot
many other girls and boys who have
suffered like Anna.
He speaks, for instance, of one old
woman who, as a result of poisoning
mad lost her lower jaw altogether
and for twenty years she masticated
her food by pressing it against her
upper Jaw with her thumb.
The investigator at WASHINGTON tells
US there is harmless substitute for
"h1te PHOSPHORUS that is readily
available
Why, then, we ask, is not this sub.
stitute used %
The answer is very simple, says the
investigator frankly. MANY manu-.
tacturers would gladly do so, but 1t
comes just little more to make non.
poisonous mathches.''
And for that excellent Christian
reason Anna suffered agonies and
died and an old woman uses her
thumb for lower jaw for twenty
years.

JOIN IN AND HELP
CLERKS GET HOLIDAY

The movement at present under
way in Duluth to secure for the
clerks in the big retail establish
ments of the city surcease from
their labors at noon Saturday is
a worthy one and is daily becom-
ing more popular as it's supporters
spread the work Of propaganda.
Much credit for the present
success attending the movement is
due Miss Jean A. Poirier, one Of
Duluth's efficient deputy labor
commissioners, who has given the
subject her especial energies for
the past few weeks.
There is no valid reason why
the Superior street stores cannot
close on Saturday afternoon, in
stead of prolonging that trade
day to midnight and often as far
into Sunday as customers can be
found abroad to buy. The clerks
will do better work the balance
of the week for the rest thus OBJ
tanned, their Sunday will be of in
finitely more benefit and value
to them, and the buying public
will not in the least be hampered.
Put your shoulder to the wheel
and give the movement your sup
port.

1t Costs Less, But

About 5000 workers are emploved
in this country in the making of
matches.
About half Of these workers are
men; the other half are women and
children.
They produce each year product
valued at over $5,50O,0OO.
Their wages are very small. About
one-fourth of all the male workers
and over one-half of all the female
workers earn under Sc a week.
Almost none Of the women eve-
earn more than So a week, and some
OF the men earn under SO a week.
Yet the making Of matches is one of
the most dangerous employments in
the world
In one small factory in this coun-
try twenty cases Of PHOSPHORUS pois-

have been reported.
It is peculiar and terrible disease
that comes as a result of the poison

Sometimes the poison breaks out
through the neck in the form of an
abcess or oozes out through the

Usually it is necessary to remove
the entire jaw, even then the disease
not infrequently ends in death.
Hundreds of cases have been re-
ported of this disease.

"Phossy jaw" is such terrible NAL

industry is government monopoly,
the cost of caring for the poisoned

DAY WITHOUT PARADE IS
CIRCUS MINUS ELEPHANT

An element of the Cincinnati
trade unionists is seeking to do
away with the annual labor day
parade in that city, at which
Frank Rist, editor of the Cincin-
natl Chronicle, editorializes as fol-
lows:
I'm the labor movement, as in
all movements, the majority rules.
"This rule has local as well as
national application.
E'If it shall be decided to aban-
don the Labor Day Parade in 1910
the Chronicle will cheerfully bend
the knee to that decision.
''But, until that decision is
reached, the voice Of the Chron-
icle will be raised for the parade.
And here be it understood
that the uniform and the band are
not absolutely essential for the
parade's success.
"The success of the parade is in
the number of paraders.
"That is 1.-THE thousands and
thousands Of processionists show.
