A LOSING GAME.

The Los Angeles fight is being
carried on by the Merchants and
Manufacturers Association with
the idea of destroying organized
labor in that city.
In fact, the main object of the
merchants and manufacturers
seems to be that there shall be no
business man permitted to do
business in that city unless he be-
longs to the Business Men s
Union, and no man, woman, or
child be permitted to work if they
belong to the union of their trade
or calling. Not a very consistent
policy.
Millions Of dollars have been
spent by certain employers and
organizations Of employers in an
effort to destroy the organization
OF the workers, but the money
and efforts have all been in vain.
Organized labor continues to
grow and flourish, and make ex-
cellent progress in the face of the
most bitter attacks. This is so,
likewise in Los Angeles.
The members of the Business
Mems Union of that city are be-
coming dissatisfied with the los
ing game, and are threatening to
organize a dual union, and accord
the wage-earner the right to or
ganize and proper condition of
employment.
They see business, falling off
and profits getting less, and are

LABOR HELPLESS
IF DISORGANIZED

Horace Greeley summed up his
views in the following brief state
ment: II can not forget that the la
boring class, so-called, must, like any
other, stand up for it's own rights, or
be content to see them trampled un-
der foot; and that the strength given
1t by organization, superinduced upon
members, is it's only effectual defense
against the else unchecked tyranny of
capital, eager for profit and reckless
of others rights. The power devel-
oped by combination may be abused,
like any other power; but labor is
helpless and prey without it,

HOW PROSECUTED TRUSTS
REIMBURSE THEMSELVES

The tobacco trust is contemplating
advancing the prices of its products.
This is another case. Of a trust maxi
ing the consumer pay the expenses Of
Its litigation. The government is pro-
scouting the tobacco trust for con-
ductfon business in restraint of trade
and 1t will primarily cost the COM

A GOOD THOUGHT.

The following editorial, which
appeared in the San Antonio
Weekly Dispatch, is so we'll put
that we think it deserves perusal
by all the readers of our paper:
1--WE point to two ways in life
and the young man who considers
these two soberly and earnestly
before moving onward should
choose the one that truth and
reason tell him leads to honor
and manhood. If you are learn
ing trade learn it we'll and when
you become a journeyman, afil-
late with trades union of your
craft and do your best at all
times to strengthen the union, as
you will learn that your success
as a man depends upon your 10y
atty to the cause of trades union
ism. The other way, to live for
yourself, is a sad thing. Don t
start wrong. The labor movement
is not mean; it is grand and
should be judged for it's worth.
1t some men do not live up to it's
principles, do not measure the
movement by them but by the
good done to those who are loval.

BUSY BODIES.

Just as sober minded people are be-
ginning to wonder what busy bodies
and nation saviours will tackle next:
along comes our old friend and "open
shop champion, ex-President Eliot of
Harvard university, who declares that
every family should have six or eight
children.
Some unfeeling agitator and SCOT
Ter may say the war department has
subsidized the fossilized intellectual,
but that is hardly possible It takes
all kind of people to make a world,
and after Eliot settles the Question,
and after all the pros and cons have
been duly recorded, people will con-
tinue to manage their. own affairs
without the consent of any other ma
tlon-or any of the numerous Eliots,
be they male or female.

THE STRONGEST TRAIT.

The man whose independence is
his strongest trait is the fellow
whose example we should follow
to the bitter end, for with all his
other faults, he has the courage
to hold up his head, to demand
his rights, to claim his recogni-
ton, to compel respect and to
dominate his own interests.
He is the fellow who always
succeeds, for the reason that he
has both manhood and pluck,
and it is a big undertaking to
down mortal who possesses a
proper proportion of these price,
less qualities in his makeup.
The independent man is gener-
ally the sensible man, the reason
able man and the thrifty man.
lie does not rush in "where an
gels fear to tread, heedlessly
and foolishly, but with calm and
deliberately planned action makes
his demands and sees that they
are granted.
His very independence makes
him the object of admiration. not
only among his fellow men, but
also with those by whom he is
employed, and who, in a none
tary sense, occupy higher place
on the social scale.
Ills employer may, to some ex-
tent, inwardly object to his firm,
independent demeanor, but at the
same time he cannot help but adj
mire it, and to respect him for it.
Ut course, independence should
be tempered with a proper degree
OF respect for the rights of others.
and should not arrogantly and
lmpudently be made manifest. It
should be diluted with dignity
and seasoned with civility and
courtesy toward all, and gener-
ally is, for the man who has the
courage Of his convictions, and
who will stand by them without
fear or favor, is the man who has
education enough to be a gentle
man.
AS a leader of men the inde-
pendent man is absolutely a ne
cessity, and for those who are
among the wage-earners of the
earth such character is vitality
important to lead them onward
in successful demand and accom-
plishment.
No one can respect the cring-
ing, cowardly mortal whose every
act is of the cur. Only the indie
pendent man is worthy of the
name.-Ex.

A man who marks down the price

some hospital, library or college or

OUR STANDING TIMBER.

Our Washington dispatch on
the first page gives a summary of
the report of the commissioner of
corporations on the Lumber In
dustry of the United States.
The report gives certain under
lying facts, as the long continued
public land policy, that are of
tremendous significance to the
public welfare.
One thing is certain. if the
grave future possibilities of
monopolistic ownership are to be
avoided, with all their mischiev-
Gus consequences to society, we
must lose no time in revising our
public land policy.
It is plain that our methods
and policies thus far, have result
ed in enormous loss of wealth to
the public and it's monopolization
by few interests.
The timber supply is dimin-
ishing natural resource. It's in
creasing concentration into a
comparatively few strong hands
has conferred upon those strong
holders vast power over the
lumber industry and over prices
therein: and has itself greatly &C.
CELEBRATED the enormous rise in
timber values.
It is we'll known that when the
ownership of the raw material is
controlled by a few hands, they
can easily dominate all branches
of industry dependent upon such
material.
Indeed, it is almost automatic
that real control of the raw ma
terial Of any great industry is the
most effective means of combina-
ton or monopoly.
The manager Of the National
Lumber Manufacturers Associa-
ton, which embraces the most i'm
portant mills Of the country, said,
in August, 1910, in addressing a
meeting Of lumbermen on the Pa
cific coast:
1.-The day Of cheap lumber is
passing and soon will be gone,
but the men who make the money
will be those who own timber and
can hold it until the supply in
other parts Of the country is
gone. Then they can ask and get
their own price,
What a picnic on the natural
resources Of the nation these
monopolists would have were ii
not for the activity of those
"naughty' trades unionists! Nc
wonder these avaricious and un.
scrupulous combinations enter.

TRIBUTE TO WASHINGTON.

Washington's birthday anniver-
sary... The following tribute to
Washington by an unknown Eng
lish writer, is a masterpiece in
diction and sentiment, as we'll as
truthful statement of fact:
No matter what may be the
birthplace. of such a man as
Washington no climate can claim,
no country can appropriate him
the boon of Providence to the
human race, his fame is eternity
and his residence creation.
Though it was the defeat Of
our arms and the disgrace OF our
policy, we almost bless the con-
vulsion in which he had his
origin; if the Heaven Numbered
and the earth rocked, yet when
the storm passed how pure. was
the climate that it cleared--how
bright in the brow of the firma-
ment was the planet it revealed
to us.
In the production of Wash
ington it does really appear as if
nature was endeavoring to i'm
prove upon herself, and that all
the virtues of the ancient world
were but so many studies prepar-
atory to the patriot Of the new.
"As a general he marshalled the
peasant into a general, and sup
piled by discipline the absence of
experience.
AS a statesman he enlarged
the policy of the cabinet into the
most comprehensive system of
general advantage; and such was
the wisdom Of his views and the
philosophy of his counsels, that
to the soldier and the statesman.
he almost added the character of
the sage.
A conqueror, he was untaint-
ed with the crime Of blood-a rev.
olutionst, he was free from the
stain of treason; for aggression
commenced the contest and a.
country called him to the COM
mand-liberty unsheathed his
sword-necessity stained it and
victory returned it.
IF he had paused here, his
tory might doubt what station to
assign him; whether at the head
Of her citizens or her soldiers. her
heroes or her patriots. But the
last glorious act crowned his
career. and banished hesitation.
Who, like Washington, after
having freed a country, resigned
her crown, and returned to a COT
tage, rather than remain in a
capitol?
Immortal man. He took from
the battle it's crime, and from the
conquest it's chains-he left the
victorious the glory of his SELF
denial, and turned on the van
qulshed only the retribution Of his
mercy.

llghtnings of Heaven could not
resist your sage. The temptations

REMOVE USELESS HORNS.

May Adorn Cow, but Often Lead TO
Serious Damage.
Since Pietertje Maid Ormsby made
the great record that won first place IN
the thirty day division and had her
picture 80 widely published many let
ters have come to me in regard to her.
says Superintendent NJ. II. Gardner Of
the Holstein Registry at DeIavan
Wis. In a letter to the American Guilt
vator Several breeders show curios
fly as 10 her lack of horns, one or two
commenting unfavorably. As an Ind
vidual proposition a neat pair Of short
nicely curved waxy horns on a cows
head may be something TO be admired
AS a general proposition the COW Of
today has no need of such weapons.
and II she has them will surely use
them on her mates in the herd and
cause more or less loss TO the owner
Ages ago when the ancestors OF Pie
tertje Maid Ormsby ran half wild in
the forests of Europe It was necessary
for the COW to protect her calf from
the depredations OF wolves and other
beasts Of prey. and the horns which
nature had provided for that purpose
were a necessity, but such conditions
no longer exist, and our breeders may
well ask themselves as 10 what useful
purpose can be served by horns on the
head of COW.
Pietertje Maid ormsby never had
any horns because their growth WIS
prevented. When a calf Of about three
weeks old, as soon as slight swelling
showed where the horns were to be, sh.
was laid on her side and the hair close
ly clipped from both swellings. Thei
the swellings were moistened with wa
ter and carefully rubbed with a sticl
OF caustic potash, and the work wa
done with absolutely no pain TO II

The economical butter cow-the but
ter COW that produces most largely
is seldom the smallest eater.
Milking must be done quickly
quickly and thoroughly. Anything
that irritates the cows. such as rough
ness or slow milking, viii shorten the
milk flow.
Butter should come in twenty min
utes of churning and never longer
than half an hour. Good salt should
be used and great care taken that Il
is well worked in.
The demand for good. high produc
ing milk cows is great and steadily
increasing Dairying is becoming one
OF the most substantial industries con
nected with farming and country life
Barnyard manure not only adds
plant food to the soil; It does more-it
improves the mechanical condition. In.
creases the water holding capacity
and raises the temperature In early
spring. The intelligent use OF barn.
yard manure has made thousands OF
worn and improbable soils profitable
and lifted the farm mortgage.
The feeding OF alfalfa hay to cows
deepens the yellow color Of the butter.
A COW was recently fed ration OF al
falfa and cottonseed meal. and the but
ter from her was analyzed for the
amount OF coloring. Then the alfalfa
was stopped, her ration being cotton
seed meal alone. The butter from the
milk on this feed was almost pure
