CHILD LABOR.
terms of success.

Down in New York commission
has been investigating labor condi-
tions.
1t has found them bad enough.
| Tenement houses crowded and poor
wretches fighting for life by toiling
day and night at work sent them from
factories.
They found children making flowers
at 1890 o'clock at night.
They found women and children
clicking" cigarettes. "But paste is
supplied in tubes for this purpose"
it was suggested Eyes, but the
paste sometimes dries and is moisten-
ed by the lips of the workers"
They found mothers with three
or four children about them and moth
ing to eat, waiting for the work to
be sent them, living in terrible filth.
Don't make mistake: This is not
in Russia or Turkey but in highly
civilized and free America, in the
greatest of all American states, New
York.
Carlyle says: Liberty when it be-
comes the privilege of dying of star
walton is not so enviable thing aft
er ALL"
There has been much studying of
this matter of child labor and sweat
shops and we have been lead to be-
Iieve conditions were relieved. Yet
every investigation in every part of
the country reveals conditions paral-
leling those just found in New York.
Minnesota has its children robbed
of their childhood.
It has women working fercely
against starvation.
1t has its sweat shops and heart
less employers.
Worse than this, it has its thou
sands Of fair minded, free thinking
men and women who go about their
business and pay no heed to the suf-
fering at their feet.
Would it not be well, ladies and
gentlemen, to look about you for a
moment and see what can be done to
bring back to children the heritage of
childhood?

ALIGNMENT FOR POWER.

In matter of principle there is no
such thing as compromise.
But the impossible best must not be
permitted to stand in the way of the
possible good.
1t is unfortunately true that the
path to human success is long and
many steps must be taken to reach
the pinnacle.
Cardinal Neuman sang, Zone step
enough for me" There is philosophy
of high ethics in that phrase.
The Gazette, taken to task for adj
vocating regeneration of the Re-
publican party and solidifying of
the Republican and Progressive ranks,
does not believe in giving up any prin-
ciple of cardinal Importance to the
cause for which the Progressives la
Dor.
It believes in the initiative and ref
erendum and recall, the direct cleo
ton of United States senator's, an
income tax, a downward revision of
the tariff, wise federal control of
the trusts, a foreign policy that shall
protect home industries yet guarantee
to Americans the privileges enjoyed
by foreigners.
Each of these things it believes is
essential to the welfare of the people
of this nation.
1t will not now nor at any time in
the future recede from this position.
Still it sees in this program nothing
inconsistent with regeneration of
the old Republican party.
If it had confidence in the old party
it would not consider the organize
ton in need of regenerating.
Is there a tenet in this creed to
which any Republican cannot con-
form?
Surely not; why then throw away
the advantages incident to an estab-
lished organization and start out to
blaze new trail?
The reins of government are here.
1t is simply to change drivers.
1t is for this The Gazette argues.
1t believes that the perpetuation of
the Progressive party for the fight
of four years hence means the re-
election of Woodrow Wilson, as the
union of the two factions would mean
his defeat.
Also it believes that a defeat in
1916 means the death of the Progress
sive party as party and new align

that may arise.
If the Democratic majority of the
next house decides that the publica-
ton of the Republican platform dur
ing the next campaign is hurtful to
the public welfare it could refuse adj
mission to the mails to those papers
containing the platform.
If it decided that any observation
on the tariff was hurtful to the pub
lie welfare it could censor all tariff
remarks out of the press of the coun-
try or stop them from entering the
mails.
These are extreme examples and
yet quite within the limits of the
definition given by the learned feder-
al counsel. His argument was made
in all seriousness and unless the press
of the country awaken to the extrem-
ity of the case a decision sustaining
his position may be handed down.
This is fight for the people to be
made by the press
If the press of this country is any,
thing it is semi-public institution be-
longing to the people.
It's freedom cannot be abridged
without the spirit of liberty suffering.
The time to work against this spirit
is now.
1t cannot be condemned too bitter
ly nor by an expression too nearly
unanimous.

ment for power between the Repubh-
cans and Progressives at that time
along substantially the lines suggest
ed now.
There is nothing to be gained by
delay, there is everything to lose. De-
feat should teach tolerance and can
be turned to victory if translated into
terms of success.

TYRANNY's FIRST WEDGE.

Congress shall make no law abridg-
ing the freedom of the press.
This was the first amendment to
the present constitution.
1t guarantees free press and free
speech.
The language is direct and specific.
Yet it was seriously argued before
the United States Supreme court last
week that:
Congress has the unrestrained
power to say what in its opinion is
it should not pass through the mails
and it may enforce that opinion with
out its correctness being subject tc
judicial review"
If the court sustains this opinion
the freedom of the press has passed
If the press is no longer free what
guarantee of freedom of speech have
we?
There is no appeal. What in its
opinion is hurtful to the public vel
fare, that is the last word. This is
SO broad as to cover any condition

THE MINNESOTA SENATE.

The Minnesota senate is classed as
conservative" because IN spite of a
thoroughly progressive organization
of its committees by Lieutenant Gov
ernor Sam Gordon, at the last session
the negative character of it's results
made it seem decidedly Conservative.
We doubt if it is to be reckoned as
particularly conservative at the COM
ing session.
Once more, it will have a progress
sive presiding officer in Lieutenant
Governor j. A. A. Burnquist,
who will see to it that committees are
framed so as to give every measure
a fair show.
Beside, this time the senators will
be two years nearer to an accounting
with the voters of their districts than
they were at the last session.
Moreover, some of them have been
going to school to the people and
finding out that the people want
things and are in earnest about it

Official Paper of Redwood County
MARCH or THE BLACK MOUNTAIN

This poem by Gilbert Keith Chesterton, wa
cabled from London to the New York Sun:
What viii there be to remember
OF us in the days to be?
Whose faith was a trodden ember
And even our doubt not free.
Parliaments built of paper
And the soft swords of gold
That twist like a waxen taper
In the weak aggressor's hold
A hush around Hunger staying
A city of serfs unfed,
What shall we leave for saying
To praise US when we are dead?
But men shall remember the Mountain
That broke its forest chains,
And men shall remember the Mountain
When it marches against the plains,
And christen their children from it
And season and ship and street
When the Mountain came to Mahomet
And looked small before his feet
His head was high as the crescent
OF the moon that seemed his crown
And on glory of past and present
The light of his eyes looked down.
One hand went out to the morning
Over Brahmin and Buddhist slain.
And one to the west in scorning
To point at the scars of Spain.
One foot on the hills for warden,
By the little Mountain trod,
And one was in garden
And stood on the grave of God.
But men shall remember the Mountain,
Tho it fall down like tree:
They shall see the sign Of the Mountain
Faith cast into the sea.
Tho the crooked swords overcome it
And the Crooked Moon ride free,
When the Mountain comes to Mahomet
1t has more life than he.
But what viii there be to remember
Or what will there be to see-
Tho our towns through long November
Abide to the end and be?
Strength of slave and mechanic
Whose iron is ruled by gold
Peace of immortal panic
Love that is hate grown cold.
Are these bride or a warning
That we turn not to the sun,
Nor look on the lands of morning,
Where deeds at last are done?
Where men shall remember the Mountain
When Truth forgets the plain
And walk in the way of the Mountain
That did not fall in vain,
Death and eclipse and comet.
Thunder and peals that rend,
When the Mountain came to Mahornet
Because it was the end

An excellent way to sew hooks and eyes
on the placket OF a lingerie dress, SO that
the stitches will not show through the sheer
material, is to first sew them on to a straight
piece OF material. then sew It on to the
plaeket being careful to take your stitches
through the facing Of the placket only. This
straight piece also keeps the bias cut of
placket from stretching and pulling out Of
shape. The tape hooks and eyes can be used
on dresses Of heavier material.
Seams Of lingerie DRESSES may be finished
neatly and effectively By setting in narrow
lace insertion or hemstitched beading This
carries out the sheer eject OF the gown and
there are no ugly seams showing through.

AGGmpse of the New Materials.
BY ELIZA SPENCER.

A glimpse OF the new spring materials
only given to a chosen few-shows the same
important feature Of the last winter, q soft
and rough finish In effect, possibly more en-
phasiIed.
Width Of material is again repeated. and
even the cotton and merceriIed goods come
much wider.
All the regular goods and well known mate
rails, OF course, are with US. sometimes
changed a little and given a new name but
even at this early date there are q few really
new materials.
An entirely new material that will be seen
in the best imported models and to be used
by the exclusive dressmakers. is a material
called alto-cloth. II is all cotton. in a loose
open weave, resembling a fine wooden home

SO soft and yet durable. In white and the
light colorings It will make the most at
tractive costumes. For dressy suits and
afternoon costumes nothing could be prettier
and daintier, and It has the advantage OF not
crushing. Combined with handkerchief
linen. hand embroidery, and real heavy Iaces,
the most beautiful lingerie gowns could be
made OF II.
The material that will doubtless have the
greatest vogue for all kinds Of costumes will
be taffeta. We have seen much taffeta this
winter. but II seems 50 essentially a spring
material, for nothing Is cooler or more fresh
looking and It Is soft enough not to crush.
