RETRIBUTION

Not since the Civil war has such
feeling of danger pervaded the
minds of Americans who think The
menace this time 10 industrial. 1t
has been felt recently In consider
ing what might be the meaning of
a strike of thirty thousand locomo-
tive and electrical engineers on fifty
railroads. 1t was felt in connection
with tho McNamara trial. It was
felt sveA moro In reflection upon
the victory OF the I. w. W. at Law
renee. Unskilled labor won that
fight against money, police. and
courts. 1t won. and on its lips was
a threat that II 1t lost 1t would
practice Systematically the destruc-
ton of property, and II II won the
victory would be but a step to fur
ther demands until capital should
be glad to turn over control of in
dustry to labor. These foreigners
came over in response to the search
of capital for cheap labor with
which to beat down the standard Of
living established by the unions.
Now the weapon which 1t has i'm
ported becomes a mighty threat to
the existence of capital itself. What
is this but Retribution?
Shall we be alarmed? Certainly
not by a little violence in the
streets. Thomas Jefferson said of
Shay's insurrection:
If the happiness of the mass of
people can be secured at the expense
of a little tempest now and then,
or even little blood. 1t will be a
precious purchase. What signify
. few lives lost in q century or two!
No, 1t is not violence we need to
ponder 80 much as prosperity. Re-
member how thin, in business, is
the line between success and failure.
The trained unions realize that a
little increase In cost may mean the
destruction of an enterprise alto-
gether. The unframed often seem
ignorant of this dangerous and mar
row line between productiveness
and disaster. and imagine that IL
the masses could control all busi-
ness everybody would be comfort
able. They cannot know that with
out a rather high degree of organ
izing and managing ability a fac
tory may use up more than 1t pro-
duces. This is the only threat that
need frighten anybody but a coward
that the increasing power of sheer
numbers. by upsetting organized
skill. may take the fertility out OF
labor itself. How Is this danger to
be met.
In one way. The mass of laborers
are not to be beaten back. Indus
trial fuedalism cannot last. Safety
lies In the fact that responsibility
brings caution and reflection. Give
all your laborers stake in the en-
terprise, and a share in decisions,
and they will begin to figure profit
and loss. to weigh and understand,
even as you yourself now figure
and understand. 1t 10 the only way.

What Weld County Needs

We need here 5000 good dairy
cows, 10000 beef cattle and 2OO,.
600 sheep every winter to eat up
our hay, beet tops and corn silage
and turn our farm waste into ma
nue.
II this were accomplished what
would result? 1t would mean three
more sugar factories to grind the
extra sugar beets We would raise.
as many potatoes As we ever raised,
and 40 per cent Of our land in hay
and silO corn. II would mean over
half = million dollars yearly Of
dairy products off our faxms, be-
sides more crops than we now raise.
1t would mean the county would be
on . cash hasis, and our banks have
over five millions ON deposit ~
against two millions now, and that
Weld county would be the richest
county In the state or nation On

5000 LIVES LOST

"A Illtlo 1888 Lu0A GWO WC0AS dSo
humanity was stunned and horri-
fed at the news that 1900 human
beings had lost their lives in 81
gantic shipwreck. At that time
The North American pointed out
that the men, women and children
who went down in the Titanic were
sacrificed to q vicious principle
which numbers its victims by the
hundreds of thousands yearly. The
world was Mortified by the Titanic
lost their lives at one time Nsd In
percentage to the yearly total Of pre-
ventable deaths.
Before the Titanic wreck occur
red the Equitable Life Assurance So
ciety, one OF the largest financial
corporations In the world, had put
out circular addressed to the peo-
pie of this city. In this circular the
Equitable company asks: "If 1t
were known that 5000 lives were to
be destroyed, say, on the 10th day
of next month. what would hap
pen?" The 5000 lives to which the
Equitable Life Assurance society re-
fers are the lives of the 900e per-
sons who every year in this city are
destroyed by preventable disease.
The statistics are those of the d.
rector of health and charities.
So this city. which was 50 inn
measurably shocked by the 1900
deaths in the Titanic, sees more
than five times that number Of her
own citizens killed every year by
disease which it is just as much the
duty of the community to stamp out
as 1t was the duty OF the White Star
Line to provide proper safeguards
for the lives of those on its marve-
lous ship.
The White Star Line assumed
that its ship was unsinkable; that
every precaution against loss of
life had been taken. Thus, this
community, in mommon with nearly
all other communities, assumes that
every measure against preyentable
disease has been taken.
But We have really only made q
beginning. The death rate has been
reduced 29 per cent in twenty-five
years. There are living today 5000
J persons who would have died within
the last twelve months il the death
rate of 1885 had prevailed.
But with 5000 persons diving of
preventable disease, We have pro-
yided lifeboats for less than half
the ship.s company. And these
ngures do not take into considera-
tion the many deaths from prevent
able accidents in industrial pur-
, suits.
The Equitable points out that
oooo persons die in this city yearly
OF tuberculosis of the lungs. "be-

with a comical sidelong glance at his

1T is a sad commentary upon par

ing the lighter vein Of his brother-in-
laws remarks, but it would be better
for our children if they were away at
school all the year, instead of part
of it. Frankly, Hugh, could manage
Junior all right alone, but to manage
his mother, too, is beyond my TALENT"

situation. but wondering that his wife,
who was Wetherell's sister. had
shown, in the bringing up Of their boy,
now grown, none of that consummate
perfection in the art of training chill

boasted of.
I'll bet Lucy never interfered when

A quick reflection upon the success

convinced Jennings that his wife had
not interfered.

IN HUNT FOR TALL HORSES
Scientists Digging In Old ouarries Of
Texas for Remains Of Prehis-
torlc Animals.

Silverton, Texas-A hunt for giant
horses. some of them measuring more
than. thirty feet tall, is now in prog
ress in this part of the Texas Panhan'
die
Ranch people are stirred up over
the excavation that has been started
at spot on Prairie Dog creek, just
north of Silverton. by an expedition
of scientists sent out by Yale uni
versity This party is headed by
Richard S. Lull, professor of verte
brate paleontology of that institution
They are digging for the fossils OF
prehistoric horses 1t is said by Pro
fessor Lull that all evidence that has
accumulated tends to show that the
horse of today had its origin in these
long extinct animals that once roam
ed the expansive plains in the Texas
Panhandle.
Discoveries of bones that are elias
sified as belonging to the prehistoric
horse have been made from time to
time in this section. Not great
while ago, in opening gravel pit neal
Plainview. the fossils of an animal
that scientists proclaim belong to the
equine species were brought to light
and when placed together the height
of the skeleton measured more thar
100 hands. This relic Of an unknowI
past was brought to light by r. NJ
Trick of Plainview. The bones OF the
animal were sent to the Smithsonian
institute at Washington.
The quarry now being exploited
turned out some rich finds In the way
of bones of these ancient monsters IN
1899, when the spot was visited anG
considerable expedition work wa.
done by Professor James w. Gidley.
1t Is the theory of Professor Lun
that in prehistoric times. when these
giant horses roamed the plains, there
was coincident with them a civiliza
tion of high standard in what is now
New Mexixco and Arizona. The ruins
of the homes Of these people are still
to be seen, and In some parts of the
arid region there has been discovered
the evidence of extensive systems OF
irrigation.
There are good reasons for believ.
ing, according to Professor Lull. that
these giant horses, which had height
of 80 to 40 feet, were often domesti
Gated by the people of that day and
time.
