MEN WHO STAY THEIR FELLOWS

When, within a little more than
an hour, in a New York state prison,
seven convicted murderers, one after
another, were put to death, the
country ~shuddered. The execution
of n man, Dr. even two. would have
attracted little attention, but. illogi-
cal as it undoubtedly was, the public
could not but feel that in the legal,
cold-blooded killing of seven a butch
cry had taken place.
Yet what is the other side OF the
case? The statistics gathered by the
American Prison Association show
that in the United States, including
its dependencies, thirty persons are
murdered every day. In the city of
New York, during the month of July,
there vas a killing every day. Dur
ing July, last year, in the same city,
there were 119 unlawful homicides.
In London, which has a population
more than half again as large as
New York, there were only nineteen
murders in July, last year. Chicago,
in 1909, had 11S killings, as against
twenty for London, a city over three
times as large.
The cause of this disparity is not
that more liquor is consumed in pro-
portion to population in the cities of
this country than in London. Gov
eminent statistics show that the con
trary is true. There is only one pos
laws are enforced as rigidly and
promptly as possible and without re-
gard to persons or political pull
1t is exceedingly difficult for a man
who Stays another to escape capture
and when caught he is quickly con
victed and the penalty of his crime il
inflicted on him. The laxness of law
enforcement in this country, par.
~ticularly upon those guilty of murd-
er, is so great and general that il
constitutes a national scandal.
Public sentiment In favor o.
abolishing capital punishment is un.
doubtedly growing. The CHASTITY re.
cord just made in New York will give
it new force and volume. But unles:
there is a very radical change for the
better in the enforcement of the law
the doing away with the deaf
penalty will surely swell the coun
try's annual murder record to proper
lions startling than it has al
ready reached.
We know what a scandal it is RICH
at our w doorstep and how Gov
Marshall let's them escape.

From the House of Clouds.

I would build a cloudy house
For my thoughts to live In,
When for earth too fancy-loose.
And too low for heaven.
Hush! 1 talk my dream aloud.
1 build it bright to see
1 build 1t on the moonlit cloud.
To which I looked with thee.
Cloud-walls of the mornings gray,
Faced with amber column,
Crowned with crimson cupola
From a sunset solemn,
May-mists for the easements fetch.
Pale and glimmering.
With a sunbeam hid In each
And a smell of spring.

Darkening and then Frightening,

Use one with an iris strain
For the door so thin.
Turning to a sound like rain
AS 1 enter In.
Build a spacious hall thereby
Boldly, never fearing;
Use the blue place of the sky,
Which the mind is clearing;
Branched with corridors sublime,
F1ecked with winding stairs,
| Such as children wish to climb
Following their own prayers.
In the muatest of the house
I will have my chamber;
Silence at the loo shall use
Evenings light of amber,
Solemnizing every mood,
| S~oftening in degree,
Turning sadness into good
AS I turn the key.

THE LABOR MARKET.

The labor market in any com
munity is good or bad according to
living conditions in that community.
The members of the Hammond Manu-
facturers' Association who are so
perplexed with the question of get
ting laborers should take this into
consideration
The Importance OF having a good
labor market was best shown when
it is remembered that it was the big
obstacle that had to be overcome be-
fore the Baldwin Locomotive Works
would purchase a site In this region.
What are labor conditions now?
l.. The laborer is compelled to
pay at least $40 a month rent and
some pay So and SIS. The ac-
cancellations afforded at the Standard
Steel Car plant company houses
are poor and the rem charged is ex-
orbitant.
2. The laborer gets about the
same wage here as in other parts of
the country. When there is a great
demand for men, as at present, a
higher scale Of wages obtains.
8. The cost of living in the Calu-
region is higher than in Chicago; 1t
is higher thar in the down county
towns, 1t is higher than any other
place in the middle west.
4. Work is plentiful and there
are very few Idle periods.
How may labor conditions be I'M
proved?
1. By the establishment of a real
city market. Not an experimental
proposition. BY inducing an expert
enced commission merchant to locate
here and If necessary organizing a
company to build a cold storage
warehouse. Then produce may be
shipped to Hammond direct and not
by way of Chicago. BY encouraging
truck farmers to raise produce for
home and not foreign consumption.
By the extension of i%nterurban lines
to facilitate traffic between town
and country.
2. BY making it possible for
thrifty w~orkingmen tt own their
own homes. This means that trans
p%ortation must be provided from the
factory to lots that will sell for s1OO
apiece.
g. Abolish the tenement. 1t is
vicious, makes the workingman de.
pendent, destroys ambition and
creates an atmosphere of %vfciousness
in which it is almost criminal tc
raise children.
f.. 1t was a mistake in city build.
ing to locate the Standard Steel Cal
company in it's present location
Property values are so high that onl,
the workingmen who are well off cal
afford to buy.
8. AS a matter of city buildir,
the foreign settlement should be re
moved from the Standard district an,
a new n created in West Harmon,
where there are hundreds of lots tina
can be purchased for 500 each.
6. The idea of F.. S.. Betz, one O
the best that has ever been advanced
that homes for workingmen shout
be built on the unit plan like
Wernecke book case, solves tn
problem of homes for w~orkingmer
