LONG TROUSERS.

The c., B. & @. railway has issued
an order that trainmen shall not ap-
pear on duty with their trousers turn
ed up at the bottom. While the order
is probably issued to take away from
the trainmen certain loud, '.ladedah
appearance, there is some reason. in
fact, for the order. as the Springfield
Register thus explains:
Recently two trainmen have been
killed by having their turned up
trousers caught on projections which
threw them under the wheels. While
the accidents may be blamed on the
fold of the trousers leg, at the same
time the railroad company will likely
Re sued for damages and the jury will
probably decide that the railroad COM
pany was to blame, SO the railroad has
financial interest in whether their

The UndoIna Of Gompers.

Waterloo Courier: Union labor was
not deceived by the. Mcnamara broth
ers SO much as it was by the presi-
dent of the American Federation of
Labor. The boys were guilty of the
dynamite outrages, and, of course,
maintained their innocence until
obliged to confess. The rank and file
of labor might have believed in their
innocence and 1t might not, had it
not been for the leader of their great
organization.
Samuel Gompers it is who is respon-
sible for the faith which the rank and
file of the unions had in the innt
cence of the McNamaras. 1t was in
cumbent upon bin to investigate in
full the evidence ags:ast the brothers.
He had this opportunity. Union Ia.
Dor trusted him. And yet he main
tanned that the McNamaras were
without doubt the victims of black,
capitalistic conspiracy until the evi-
dence became SO overwhelming that
they had to confess in order that one
of them might save his neck from the
moose. Can 1t be true that Samuel
Eompers was so much interested IN
the innocence or guilt of the McNa.
naras as he was in having them for
mally vindicated whether innocent or
guilty?
WHAT attitude might Mr.. Gompers
lave maintained in keeping with tn
dignity and responsibility of his OF.
fee? He might have addressed tho
hosts of nllion labor as follows:
These men have been charged with
an infamous crime. and upon the
proof of their guilt or innocence de-
pends the good name of union labor.
We hope these men are not guilty
but are determined to see justice
done. You should give them the bene-
fit of the doubt and contribute big
fund for their defense. If innocent,
we shall save them. If guilty we
shall discredit them and cleanse or
ganized labor of the smirch of their
Names.
Then what would have happened in
case of their confession? Why or
gained labor would have had its
hands washed of them 1t would not
have had any explanations or any de-
fense to make. It's enemies could not
have said, Il told you So" Instead of
this, Gompers assumed the innocence
of the men because they were labor
officials. He accused innocent men
of dark plots and deep conspiracies.
With one fell swoop he handed over
the entire prestige of organized labor
to the defense of criminals who had
overwhelming evidence against them?
The result? Simply loss OF prestige.
Defense. Explanation. Wrath. Re
gret. Humiliation All of which might
have been saved by an honest atti-
tude on the part OF Samuel Gompers.

The Newspaper and the Town.

Burlington Hawk-Eye: One of the pro.
feasional boomers visited Clinton re.
Gently and there he told the business
men many things. With the majority
they we're probably familiar. Incl
dentally, he advised the Clintonians
to prod u their newspapers To get

1T is to laugh Here Is the Iowa

booming for al. these years. and has
done 1t as a matter of principle, and
has learned to love the work and has
never gotten dollar out Of It. And

PASSENGERS CAN PROMENADE.

Persons have perfect right to
roam about the Platform at railroad

safeguarded, so the supreme court

agraph is from the opinion:
1T is not unusual for passengers
awaiting the arrival of train to walk

pate that they will do so and to take
reasonable precautions that in doing

BETTER BUSINESS CONDITIONS.

- ei' oOSINGOS IONS,
Henry Clews reports that in various
directions there are indications Of
slow but certain Improvement in
business conditions. There are still
some complaints OF slackness in trade
and in many instances profits are upon
a smaller scale than for several years.
At the same time the volume of gem
eral trade Is fairly satisfactory. There
has been no shrinkage of consequence.
as proved by well-sustained railroad
earnings and bank clearings, and after
the season Of quiet incidental to the
close OF the year there Is fair assur-
ance of at least moderate recupera-
ton.
BY far the most significant element
in the industrial situation Is the strik-
ing improvement in the iron trade.
The turn was made about the middle
of October Since then orders have
steadily expanded, and this week
the big producers OF finished steel
have been 90 besieged that in not a

NEW pEcALoeuE FOR WOMEN.


In an address before the members OF
the Equal Suffrage League and others
in st. Louis on Saturday Miss Thekla
Bernays advocated new decalogue
for women as follows:
l. Equal facilities in education for
moth sexes
2. Equal rights in guardianship Of
children.
8. Equal wages for equal work.
4. A single standard Of morality for
both sexes.
5. Regulation and restraint of child
labor
G. Abolition Of the sweat shops
Z. Abolition of fire-trap factories
and other working places.
s. Suppression of smoke.
9. Minimize the drink evil without
interfering with personal liberty.
10. Abolish the white slave trafiic.
Miss Bernays declared that man has
gone utterly mad on the subject OF
money, and in his passion for the pos
session of property he has forgotten
that human life is the main thing to
be considered. Women never forget
this. Drunk with the curse OF power
resulting from this passion for money,
men have no time to suppress greed
and ignorance. Miss Bernays asserted
that it is not true laws can not be en-
forced in democracy, as Edison
seems to think. The idea that wom-
en- can influence men without the bal
lot, in her opinion, is perfectly fool
ish.
