Case Of Abuse.

Evening Capital News; l noticed
your comment Sunday morning re-
garding the divorce suit of Jessie
Roark versus James Roark. No com
plaint filed in court could adequately
re present the conditions as they exist
ed regarding this family. Mr.. Roark
had taken his wife and seven children
up into the gulch on tributary OF
Shafer creek to as isolated spot as
it would be possible to imagine and
there resided The father seemed very
adverse to labor and had it not been
for the charity and kindness of their
nearest neighbors and the efforts or
the wife, the family would have been
entirely without either food or cloth
| ing. Due to the charity and kindness
of Mrs Ward and Mrs Frank lnger-
ham. the family has been furnished
with fruit and vegetables and such
clothing as they could spare from their
own families.
| AS set forth IN the complaint, on the
| eighth of this month, Mrs. Roark took
her children and went to the home OF
Mrs. Ward for the night. Their young
est child, six months of age, was III
and such medical assistance as could
be given by the neighbors, was being
rendered 1t. Along in the night Mr..
Roark came and. when no one was
present except Mrs. Ward and Mrs.
Roark, forcibly took all of the children,
most of them improperly clothed. and
carried them back to his cabin. being
a mile or mile and quarter away
Realizing the seriousness of this action
to the infant, several OF the neighbors
took a team and wagon and together
with Mrs. Roark went to his cabin
and tried to induce him to let them
take the baby that it might be fed and
cared for. He barricaded and locked
1.-THE door and would neither admit his
lneighbors nor surrender possession OF
lany Of the children.
Il The only thing that could then be
accomplished i'm a peaceable way wal
, TO secure an order OF the court for the
custody Of the children. Mr.. Schrib-

 The question of the $3o00oo.000 Chinese loan is too big to interest the multitude It is something for the international bank ing houses and financiers. The fact Which obtrudes itself most plainly into view IS that the money lenders are scheming the best they know how to grab off advan- tages, tantamount to usury, and that the crafty Celestials are seeking to protect themselves and at the same time get the cash. This great loan is not to the adVah- tage of the peoples of Europe or the Western Hemisphere. In the long run, u will promote Oriental industries and bring the countless hordes of cheap Chinese Ia- borers into competition with the hign- priced labor of America and the mod crate priced labor of Europe. There are those who look to see relentless trade warfare between the Orient and the CIVIL fzed countries of the Western Hemisphere within the next twenty years-a revolution more portentous than any seen In the worlds history.

Walters mamma at last said he could have the party. and all Waters
little friends who had Teddy bears were asked to come over and bring their
Teddes for the party.
"A low table was set in the payroon, and little chairs were placed around
it for the Teddy bears
When Walters mamma brought the children in to see the table they were
greatly pleased There werec cakes and candies and apples and oranges on it,
As it was really the Teddy bears party, for ponteness they were served
frst
so each little girl and boy offered a cake to his or her Teddy bear and
said, Have some But the Teddy bears Just sat and stared straight before
them out of their beady eyes and wouldn't take a bite.
Then one little girl took q chocolate scream and stuck it right on the end
of her Teddy bears nose. 1t looked SO funny that ali the children laughed
and each stuck a chocolate on the end Of bis Dr. her Teddy bears nose.
Now they can sit right back there until they ca their candy said the
children. And they seated their Teddies against the wall and on the door

MINERS AND SOCIALISTS.

The Evening Bulletin of Philadel-
phia takes up the action of the United
Mine Workers concerning politics and
makes the following comment:
The vote of the United Mine Work
ers of America against endorsing the
socialist party as the political party of
the laboring class, by more than three
to one, was no more significant than
was the attempt of an Illinois leader
Of the socialist forces to explain the
defeat. 1--WE decided" said this man,
that it would be impolitic at this
time for the convention to attempt to
bind the 300, 900 miners in the United
Mine Workers to the socialist party"
The decision appears to be confirmed
by other acts of the convention, as well
as by other evidences in the indus
trial world at the present time.
AS we have said in earlier comment
on the McNamara's revelations, trade
unionism will not be obliterated by the
resentment of the nation against such
lawlessness. Its lesson will be severe,
but if it learns the lesson, it will be en-
abled to perform it's useful service,
with a confidence on the part Of the
people which has been ~Iessening
steadily under the influence which
dominated the organizations generally
in recent years.
