All see the one clearly today, but

The cotton mills where women and
little children work II to IA hours 4

the massacre of st. Bartholomew 8

We condemn the st. Bartholomew

For the State to pay the attorney
lon one side of a case and not the

to the old laws whereby free speech
was permitted to some and denied to
others.

free press today-but we can't yet

INDUSTRIAL LIBERTY.

The spirit of Liberty is the same
yesterday, today and forever.
The garments enveloping her
change with the ages; her guise to-
day is new and strange.
The struggle was once with kings.
That is nearly over.
The wild savagery of religious per-
secution has had an end. The lions,
the stake and the cross have passed
into the dim shadows OF pitiful and
pitiless past.
So, too, has been won the cruel
war for the privilege of free speech
and the loosening of the tongue has
brought with it the freeing of the
mind.
Today the struggle of great soul:
is for industrial liberty.

MY SHADOW.

1 have little shadow that goes in and
out with me,
And what can be the of him il
more than 1 can see.
He Is very. very like me from the heels
up to the head;
And see Kim jump before me when
jump into my bed.
The funniest thing about him Is the
way he likes to grow
Not mt all like proper chiIdren, which
Ii always very slow;
For her sometimes shoots up taller,
like an India rubber ball.
And he sometimes gets little that
there's none of him at all.
He hasn't got notion of how children
ought to play.
And can only make fool of men In
every sort of way.
He stays close beside me, he's a
coward you can see;
I'D think shame to stick to nursie as
that shadow sticks to me.
One morning, very early, before the
sun was up,
L rose and found the shining dew IN
every butte reap;
but my lazy little shadow, like nm
arrant sleepy head.
Had stayed at home behind me and
was fast asleep in he'd.

POOR HELPLESS CussEs.

Just how anybody could want to be
a doorkeeper at the republican con-
vention is just as hard as trying to
understand how any one could want
to be a delegate
Either is a dogs life as long as the
job lasts. The majority of people
seem to think that a delegate or n
doorkeeper has open sesame" to a
national convention and that they
can enlarge the building in which the
deliberations are held by stretching
1t in some mysterious fashion.
These requests for tickets or aG
mittance come in various phases and
FORMS The most of them it is really
distressing to be compelled to refuse.
A delegate has one ticket besides his
own for his family-a doorkeeper
cannot admit anyone unless he has a
ticket and there you are.
Yet great many people honestly
believe that either of these men can
get them in the convention il they
want to do SO. They have the idea
firmly imbued in their heads that
there is some mysterious under
ground way of either getting tickets
or smuggling good people inside tn
Coliseum. The higher officials of the
convention are beset with the same
difficulty. Take Col. Harry New
Life these days is an absolute burden
for him. He is afraid to appear or
the street. In the Congress Hobbies
people waylay him. They camp FOR
hours on his trail. His mail Il
swamped with appeals and he is alb
solutely helpless.
And there are others.

TIME GIVES PERSPECTIVE.

We are now seeing in the process
of making some very lively para
graphs of American history. Whether
present Roosevelt conflict with
the same interest that the present
generation gives TO Grants third
term ambitions is beyond our ken.
However, whatever position the
years assign the eventful doings of
these days in history, we may be
quite sure in thirty or forty years
hence that the time-mellowed per-
|spective they will have then will be
Ia most interesting one.

ANOTHER SIGHT.

South Chicago is known all over
the south end of Lake Michigan by
the glare of her furnaces and her
Bessemer steel plant. The lights of
the South Chicago mills are the
guiding stars of all ships bound for
Chicago and its vicinity. The steel
mills illumination has long been con-
sidered one of the most spectacular
nocturnal views in the Calumet
|region.
Now we have another sight, one
that will interest the visitor and will
serve to show the residents that one
lof its plants is in operation. This
new sight can be seen almost any
night by looking directly east on
92nd street. Looking in that direc-
tion you will frequently see a glare
which will light up the skies for a
few minutes and then all will once
more be in darkness.
The light comes from the new Iro-
directly opposite the foot of 92nd
street The new furnace is now in
Operation and from Ninety-second
street and Commercial avenue its
glare is pretty and welcome sight.
| Thus at one end of Ninety-second
street we have the Columbus foun-
tain and at the other the new Iro-
quois Iron Furnace building on made
| land, and made possible through the
persistent energy of the citizens of
South Chicago. 1t is another indica-
tor of our Industrial prosperity and
| is indeed a welcome sight at the foot
of our main business street All
those glittering, glazing lights spell
success and we cannot have too many
lof them. They are always a welcome
lsight and we always welcome an in

In the interim it should not be
forgotten that Battleaxe is not a pub

president of the Gary park board. His

Not Without Alloy.

Even If 1t be true that a reconciliation
between kaiser and crown prince is about
to take place.. the Christmas festival OF
the imperial family will not be one Of
unalloyed joy. The kaiser as well as the
kaiserin are said to be worried at the
constant 'love affairs of Prince Adal-
bert. which are said to be of an almost
Hapsburgian kind. The hearts of the
kaiser's sons have all been very suscep-
tible to the allurements of feminine
charms. The crown prince is said to
have had several affairs of the heart be-
fore he finally fell really In love with and
married the crown princess. But none
of his liaisons were of a very serious
kind and never caused any real anxiety
to his parents.
1t is quite different with Prince Adal-
bert. however, for after huttering about
like butterfly from one feminine flower
to another. he has now fallen head over
heels in love with popular and beauti-
full German actress, Fraulein Paula Erie
den. and swears that he is going to marry
her, no matter what Instructions his par
ents may decide to place in the way. As
an attempt to induce the young lady to
give her admirer the cold shoulder is said
to have failed. the affair looks rather
serious at present. As a first punishment
the prince will most likely be sent on q
long sea voyage. But he declares that
any attempt to make him forget his love
will only make him more determined to
marry her
