FLEW OUT OF THE WINDOW
Girl Initiated a BIRD When sheriff Ap-

One of the best drawing cards which

far as attendance goes, was a hearing be-

afternoon when, as a result of the raids
Saturday afternoon by the sheriff's de-
partment, Mrs, Blanche Stewart and
Oliver Hays, who are reputed to be the
proprietors of resorts near Fort Ethan

gal liquor selling. Maude Bailey, another
colored person. almost appeared, but
will be arraigned later, She and Hays oc-
cupy the same house near Winooski Park
and she is charged with keeping a house
of ill-fame and with illegal selling.
The audience, which appeared to be
deeply interested in the proceedings, con-
tanned a wealth OF color and came shut
fling in through the door in droves and
nudged and wtggled in ecstacy, when the
defendants and witnesses, all CARRIED in
pony coats. appeared on the stand
The case against Mrs. Stewart was the
only one taken up and Sheriff j. H. Allen
told of making the raid about four O'Clock
Saturday afternoon. He found i've cases

DEFECTIVE MACHINERY MENACE
TO LIFE

be looked out for by men going up or
down on cage, bucket, skip or cross
head. In the great majority of cases
these things are unnecessary. OF
course, after a man has been through
a mine a few times, under the escort
of the ~"Super" or some fellow-miner,
he learns where these bad places are
and how to avoid them; but, even at
that, men are sadly likely to become
careless, and accidents, serious or
fatal, are more often than not the ulti-
mate cost of these concessions to "the
easiest way"
In mine workings the unnecessary
dangers to which men are subjected
are bv no means limited to shafts and
vertical openings. Most of us have
personally known of some one or
more fatality resulting from the break
ing of a plank that covered a worked
out stope beneath; of some man or
men caught and MANNED or killed by a
fall of rock resulting from the cob,
7 guess it will stand all right policy
of the superintendent or foreman or
the carelessness of some leasing out
fit. They have been and will con
tinue to be the outcome of either care
lessness, a spirit of false economy or
just plain neglect, and they should not
be possible.
In starting Slopes from mine levels
the timbers are generally placed far
too low, making it necessary for the
man of average height to bend double
when passing under them, and, while
such timberiug does not often cause
serious accidents, it is altogether un-
necessary. After a man has seen more
stars than he thought there were, as
a result of having nearly ruined his
entire nervous system by running IN
to one of these "head bumpers in the
dark, it takes him some time to re
gain his mental pose; time that could
he much more proftably employed.
Coming now to the question of acct
dents from powder. ! am impressed
with the inadequacy of mere words. 1t
is. however. a fact that IS per cent Of
powder accidents are the result OF
carelessness. ignorance, or a eomblna-
ton of both. A man can learn very
many things from experience and
profit thereby, but usually after Just
one with a premature explosion Of 40
or 80 per cent dynamite his facilities
for the absorption of profit are grue-
somelv inadequate. There are so many
things conducive to powder accidents
that the only wonder is that they are
comparatively infrequent. From the
time you start to take the cover off the
box until the round is fired you are
IN doubt as to just what is going to
happen. and even after the shooting
i finished contact with the "smoke =
IS likely to make you hate yourself for
many nauseating and headaehing
hours. Strictly enforced rules regard
ing the handling of powder, its use by
men who are careful and capable, the
providing of proper appliances for
thawing and insistenee upon the IN
variable use of such appliances-that
is about as far as a superintendent
can 90 and. at that, the only way too
many miners will ever learn to respect
the awful power of the stuff is by
experience.-H. p. Dickinson, in Din

FRIDAY, FEBRUARY II, 1911.

No other proposition has ever united
the people of Morris as has the Morris
Agricultural School and the possibili-
ties of this school loom so large that
there is a widespread disposition to
make short shift of the man or men
who will in any way directly or in
directly injure the school or hamper
in any way the men who are using
their best efforts to make it success.
In the way he is handling the legisla-
tive end of the school proposition,
Representative Spooner has the best
wishes and commentator not only of
the people of Morris, but of all of
this section of the state. The three
large elements in the success of the
school are the administrative head, the
pupils and the money to run it. Supt.
Higbie has demonstrated that he is
the man for the place and he has en-
listed the loyalty of the community.
The surrounding country has furnished
the pupils and in the first yer crowded
the buildings to overlooking, and de-
monstrated beyond a doubt that the
school will have an enrolment of $50
in two years and 500 in five years.
To accommodate these pupils money
is necessary and lots of it. and Re-
preventative Spooner is demonstrating
that he is the man to get it. His
prominence in the House will bring
this money if anything can and if he
is successful he will be entitled to
sincere, straightforward commenda-
tion. In his work for the school he
has united constituency behind him.
Morris tribune., 1911-02-17

had common interest in the promo
tion of the agricultural school, due
also to hesitancy on the part of the
younger generation and newcomers to
identify themselves with local quar-
rels which had their inception far in
the past; and due also to the harmon
izing work of the Morris Improve
ment Union, it's officers and executive
committee. The Tribune has always
been at liberty to express the sentl-
ment of the community as we have
read it, and has not been nor shall it
be the personal or political organ of
Mr.. Spooner or any other man.
Wherein we have praised Rep.
Spooner we believe we have voiced
the sentiment of the community and
wherein we have criticised him we
believe we have fulfilled the proper
function of a newspaper. The public
acts of public servants are always the
proper subject of scrutiny, and a public
press which is both free and fair lies
at the very foundation of popular
government.
