MORTALITY RATE
AMONG CHILDREN
In Region Where "Protec-
ton" Reigns
IS ALWAYS QUOTED VERY HIGH
Striking Contrast Between
That Section and COun-
try at Large.
PLAIN QUESTION NOW ASKED
(By Clyde II. Tavenner.)

(By Clyde II. Tavenner.)
Washington, Aug. 24.-In the
city OF Lawrence, Mass, where
the highly protected wooden mills
hold forth; where boys and girls
work for So, SO and 81 a week, and
fathers and mothers work long
hours for So, So and 81 week for
full time, AZ out of every 100
deaths are those of children under
years OF age. And OF these A.
children, 35 are under year of
age. The doctors declare the big
majority of these children perish
because their mothers labor such
long hours, under unsanitary con-
diticns in the wooden mills.
But mark the percentage of child
deaths in Lawrence particularly:
Forty-seven out of every 100 per-
sons that die in Lawrence are child
rem under 5 years OF age. Now
compare this with Seattle, Wash
There, out OF every 100 persons
who die, but 10 are children under
years of age.
The average for the whole coun-
try is 81 children under years OF
age instead of AZ as in Lawrence,
and for the whole country 10 out of
every 100 deaths are of children
under ] year of age, instead of 35,
as in Lawrence.
In Fall River. Mass. where the
Wooden Trust also operates, 80 out
of every 100 persons that die, are
children under years. At New
Bedford, Mass, another wooden mill
town.. 40 out of every 100 persons
that die, are under years, and the
great majority of the 49 are babes,
These peopl who work in tn
These people who work in the
wooden mills are protected" That
Is, the multi-millionaire Wooden
Trust magnates who come to Wash
ington for excessive protection, say
that the sole reason they desire tar
in rates which give them a monop-
oily on American markets and per-
init them to charge double the val
ue for wooden clothing, is that they
are protecting" their employees.
In addition to making this plea,
the trust magnates. OF course, make
liberal contributions of money to
the campaign funds of the party of
protection. The result is such bills
as Schedule X of the Payne-Aldrich
law.
Here is a plain question for the
American people to ask themselves:
Why should they longer permit a
comparative handful of millionaires
to force them to pay eXorbitant
prices for every article OF wooden
clothing they wear, on the pretext
of these rich men that they are
protecting" their employees, when
these EMPLOYEES are not only not
being protected, but are being paid
such low wages that they are prac-
tically compelled to live like cattle?

Flock to State
Big Increase in All Land
Values Coming

North Dakota Is on the eve OF q new
era.
Everything points to a mighty for
ward movement by the entire state
and close students OF conditions in
the northwest are unanimous in the
opinion that the next i've years will
witness the greatest growth in the
history of the commonwealth.
There are many reasons The state
this year has had started a great sys-
tenn of railroad extension by every
trunk line traversing 1t.
The Great Northern has, made the
biggest move for extending its lines
with the new Fargo-Minot cut-off and
plans a still further extension from
New Rockford west into Montana. The
500 has also done q great deal of ex-
tension work. The Northern Pacific
has opened up a lot of new territory
west of the Missouri and in other Sec
tions of the state.
Another reason Is the tremendous
crop taken from the soil of North Da-
kota this year. The state benefits not
alone from the direct value of this
crop, but almost to Al great IN eX-
tent through the widespread advertis-
ing that 1t has received throughout the
nation on account Of having a crop
that stands out above other states of
the country in a year remarkable for
great crops from coast to coast.
With money and settlers flowing into
the state-and the tide of both has
already started-real estate values will
advance, new business enterprises will
be started by the score. the states al
most unlimited natural will
be developed as they have in
the past and a great period of pros
perity will be ushered In.
Already business houses have felt
the thrill IN pulse of the new life,
| Everywhere there is optimism. Money
is freer than 1t has been for years.
Business is brisk in every line and
there is small place for the grumbler
and knocker in North Dakota,

England's object In insisting upon

route to India. The British empire Is

all the time intriguing with the small
tribes and petty sovereigns OF the
Balkans peninsula with the general
idea OF making the situation so intol.
erable that the other powers will sup
port her In most any measure which
would get the Turk out OF Europe.
This constant stirring up OF trouble
by Russia has served to keep the
people, of Bulgaria. Servia, Greece,
Montenegro and the Christian pro-
vinces of Turkey In Europe at the
boiling pitch all the time. Four hun
dred years OF constant. unspeakable
cruelty by the Turks on the Balkan
Christian people has instilled into tho
latter a fanatical hatred of the Mos
lens that Is positively a frenzy.
All this has made II possible for
the little rulers to build up large
standing armies, well equir ped, well
officered and we'll drilled. King Fer
dinand OF Bulgaria has the largest.
and Of recent years II has been his
ambition to build up an empire In
southeastern Europe, with himself as
ruler. much as Emperor William Is
ruler over the states and Kingdoms or
Germany.
Servia also has ambitions. The
Montenegran monarch, long a prince,
has recently become king. Greece,
although not too strong. feels that IL
Turkey is to be sliced up she should
have a piece.
The present situation arose out OF
the Albanian rebellion of year or
two ago which Turkey put down with
characteristic barbarism. Many AL
banian rebels crossed into Montene-
gro and the Turks followed. This
aroused the king Of Montenegro, who
threatened war.
Just at this point Turkish mobs at
tackled and killed q large number Of
Bulgarian residents Of Turkey. Then
barbarities Of Turkish soldiers In
Macedonia became noised abroad.
Thus the whole Balkan group OF
nations were aroused and the situa-
ton has been becoming more strained
every week.
