THE HOLDEN BOOM.
Webster City Herald

After working industriously for a
long time, the originators OF the Hol-
den boom for governor are in a fair
way to get 1t afloat. The real animus
OF this candidacy Is a dissatisfaction
with the candidacy OF George W.
Clark. George ". Clark Is a progress
sive. man of experience in public
affairs. and man who 'is absolutely
fair and reliable. AS presiding officer
OF the senate IS we'll as speaker of the
house. he won the regard OF all, TIRE
spective Of faction or party, but the
new regime" which was successful IN
the election Of Kenyon for senator,
wishes to send all these old leaders to
the stables. including Senator Cum
Minis. himself. and this is the initial
move TO defeat Cunmins in 1914 Pro-
lessor Holden is a worthy man, but IS
absolutely without experience IN pol
tiles His selection is due entirely TO
the Sact that he has done lot Of good
! to the farmers Of the state. in extern
sion work at Anes. and they naturally
feel grateful to him for II. He has been
seized upon by these schemers and has
innocen,ly allowed himself to play into
their hands. He is proclaimed by
number Of gentlemen, who have been
sore for sometime. because their merits
have not been more generously rec
oenized, and who have felt especially
miffed at Senator Cumnins, holding
him responsible for their failure TO
arrive" in official berths. It is not
likely that any great number of farm
ers can be deceived by this move: it
is a transparent device Of politicians
and soreheaded ones at that. They are
not only sacrificing a good man in
his present useful work, but they are
putting obstacles in the way Of a man
who is worthy and competent in all
respects. and would make one Of the
fairest and best governors Iowa ever
had.

MINERS AND MITCHELL.
Former President Not Likely to Leave

Former President Not Likely to Leave
the Union.
Before adjourning the annual con
vention of the United Mine Workers
of America at Columbus. o., early in
the week. the delegates voted to so
amend their constitution that former
President John Mitchell either will
have to resign his $1,000 berth as
chairman of the trades agreement de-
partment of the National Civic fed
Grafton or his membership in the
union.
While Mr.. Mitchell will have until
April / to make his attitude known
with definiteness, friends of his assert
that the union will never go so far as
to expel him. They point to the fact,
as alleged, that retiring President Tom
L. Lewis, with whom Mitchell Is per-
soma non grata, has been striving for
years to bring about just such con-
summation, but they declare that the
Lewis element, which Is really a mi
nority, as shown by the recent cleo
ton, cannot expect to go much further.
The American Federation Of Labor,
though the United Mine Workers are
affiliated with that body, cannot take
any official action regarding the ulti
matum Of the convention of the Mine
Workers to John Mitchell. giving him
till April either to leave the Civic fed
Grafton or the union. Many Of the Of
ficers of the American Federation of
Labor personally side with Mitchell
They deny that the Civic federation
Is inimical TO organized labor.
Hugh Frayne, general organizer for
the New York district of the American
Federation of Labor and who worked
in the coal mines himself. said:
"No one knows better than ! do the
feelings Of the miners toward Mr.
Mitchell, and | am certain that If the
ultimatum of the convention. which
was attended by 1900 delegates, was
put to a referendum vote of the 30O,-
900 members of the union it would not
be sustained. / know. and so do they.
that he has the interests of the union

GALL THE WORLDS A STAGE.

\ woman, queenly, with head held high,
Reigned over a social throng;
No one more gracious, no glance more
bright,
Her laugh rang out-for she ruled that
night,
And her courtiers said that she ruled
by right,
As they hailed her with laughter and
song.
And no one knew that this woman fair
Was only playing a part;
Her thoughts were miles and miles away
Her triumphs were ashes, her victories,
clay,
She dreamed at night, and she longed by
day
For peace for an aching heart.
a man there was at his office desk
Directing affairs of state.
He ruled mems lives with an iron hand
No one more powerful in all the land;
Position and wealth We're his to com
mand,
Could one know kinder fate?
Yet way down deep in this mans soul
He longed to end it ALL
Nothing to him meant wealth and
power
He would barter it all for single hour
OF a long gone past with its perfect
flower
OF youth and loves sweet call.
Our station in life may be high or low,
We are not what the world believes.
We spend our lives at our daily task
What we really think, no one need ask.
For come what may we must wear the
mask,
It's a duty each one achieves.
Tt is part of the worlds great scheme Of
things
This secret longing we know;
1t has always been thus it always will.
Don't Judge too harshly, nor speak too
in
Of any, who knows, they are drinking
their fill

Suspension of Carpenters.

The action taken by the building
trade department of the American
Federation Of Labor in suspending the
United Brotherhood of Carpenters and
Joiners from the department at the re-
cent St Louis convention was not le.
gal. according to William ID. Huber,
general president Of the brotherhood
The same position is taken by Frank
Duffy. the general secretary. They
cOnte..d that two-thirds vote is neces-
sary to suspend an organization from
membership in the department and
that the vote at the convention stood
thirty-one in favor of suspension and
twenty-five against The same vote
slso covered the suspension Of the In
ternational Association Of Steam and
Hot Water Filters. whose case was
disposed of at the same time as that
Of the carpenters and joiners. In both
cases the charge was that the interna-
tionals had not obeyed what is known
as the Tampa decision relating to mat
tiers Of jurisdiction.

Seller Fixes the Price.

"The seller sets the price, This is

where labor is strong enough to de-

lieve that an outrage had been COM
mitted when that price is demanded.
Why should not the seller of labor, the
only commodity he has for sale. be al
lowed to demand the price? And why
should not the worker, either individ-
ually or collectively, be allowed to re-
fuse the price offered to him for his

would simply have this one effect-it
would legalize and give statutory au-

TUBERCULOSIS IN DENMARK.


In Denmark the campaign against
tuberculosis has been carried on system
atically since 1895. The reporting of
living cases of tuberculosis in Denmark
has been more successful than in almost
any other country of the world. The
death rate from pulmonary tuberculosis
has fallen from 1892 to 1888 per
10000 from 1895 to 1908. There is now
one sanitorium for every l244 inhabt-
ants and every tuberculosis patient is
assured of treatment at a cost within
reach of anyone. The state pays three
fourths of the expense of treatment and
the patient or his community the re-
naming fourth.
