nation Of white man to succeed q
negro as mb.ister to Haiti.
This, together with the announced
purpose of Iostmsster General Bur
leson t. segregate t'.c negro clerks in
his department and TIC failure of the
department to put through the nomi-
nation of negro democrat A. reg
istrar of the treasury Of Oklahoma,
dispels sll sen1blal ce of the very
thought of freedom, new or old. It
may be rardonablc for the southerns
III congress and in me cabinet to dis
Tlay their feelings toward the negro,
out it ill becomes The president of
the United States to allow his south
ern blood to influence his actions as
distinguishing between the white man
and the colcored man, with discretion.
The president is certainly going to the
extremes of exhibiting his southern
blood of the negro when he sends a
white man as minister to a black re-
public, an office that has nearly al
ways gone to the colored race.
1t may be that the threat of the
southern senators that they will Bit
terly resist tie appointment of ne
groes 70 any important federal office
has something to do with the presi-
deuy recalling the name of A. E. Pat
terson as minister to Haiti, and to
weaken in his efforts to secure the
Endorsement of the negro registrar
of the treasury, but that shows very
weak man, and it certainly reflects
little credit on the high Christian
ideals the country has been led to be-
lieve President Wilson possesses if
he is to submit to prejudice in deal
ing with this race which has made
such desperate and largely success
ful struggle against disadvantage.

dreds of inmates scurrying out Of
town or scattered them to more quiet
portions Of the city, was the first
move in the campaign to make Chi
cago good" Former States Attor-
ney Wayman superintended that job,
and for time the red lights were
really dimmed. Then came the Chi
cago vice commission, reaching for
more information concerning the So
cial evil. The O'Hara white slave COM
mission delved some more and over
tapping the "red-light" district probe,
prodded the "whhite-light" district in
side "the Hoop" to find out what part
the all night restaurants and cafes
played in making Chicago an unholy
and wicked municipality.
Close upon the heels Of these in
vestigators came Sergeant Jeremiah
O'Connor, the Cook county Anthony
Comstock, with sharp eye to nude
ladies' who parade in art store win
dows. Innocently enough, the SER
geant started something when he took
September Morn" into custody and
presently council ordained: "That
any person who causes to be exhibited
in a public place any picture of a
nude female, shall be held guilty of a
misdemeanor." Or words to that ef-
feet.
Major Funkhouser, second assistant
deputy superintendent of police, charg-
ed with responsibility of seeing those
things that Sergeant O'Connor's train
ed eyes didn't see, spotted the ami
NAL dances, and showgirl singing "In
My Harem." He came to bat with the
next pronouncement.
1.-THE suggestive dance" said the
major, "must go. Likewise, the sug-
gestive song. Bring in the next dancer
that doesn't behave-and see that they
are all dressed"
Mayor Harrison had some thoughts,
too, on the dress question. He thought
that if Chicago was going to be good
she ought to be made to put on her
clothes. So the mayor had drafted
an ordinance hitting at tights, deco
lette effects and the habit that some
cabaret performers had of wander
ing around amid restaurant tables
where the sheerness of their sheer silk
duds and the low cut gowns were all
the more evident at close range.
The collective wisdom of the board
of alderman proved the mayors views
about dancers getting too friendly
with the diners and they passed the
ordinance-but in some manner the
anti-tights clause was lost in the shuf-
fle-and the city council boasts few
bald heads.
Your cynic will tell you that the old
levee district can hardly be called a
spot for meeting of ministers sons
not yet; that worse things than
September Morn" can be seen on pa
rade down State street, that week
after it was suppressed "In My Har-
EN-" was being sung as gaily as ever
across the footlights, that several
cheap show houses on South street
every day draw their crowds because
of the freedom from clothes of fe-
male dancers, and that the cabaret
ordinance is being observed-now and
then.
But making Chicago good is job
that has building a new Rome back
ed into the bushes, according to the
| reformers, and it will take more than
a day, they say. But the main thing,
they will add, is that Chicago is real
ly trying to be good.

The Seigel Mountain Mining COM
pany is reported to have made. a
rich strike on their mining property
on Seigel mountain, above Animas
Forks. The assays show some of the
ore to run as high as eight ounces
gold and 400 ounces silver. This COM
pany is made up of Delta county peo-
pie, and have been working in that
section for some time, cross cutting
and driving for the ore chute. They
finally reached the ore chute, and
opened up some first class ore. We
understand it looks very encouraging
ly. They are crowding their work
there, trying to open up the ore chute
so as to ascertain it's size. This prop
erty is in good section and there
is every reason to believe that this

Last Thursday evening it was when
old Dame Fortune was in an ugly
mood and seems to have taken out her
spite on Arthur Hamilton, who farms
in the upper Spring creek country.
Some sixty-five tons of alfalfa hay
were burned, as well as small sta
BILE, harness, saddles, tools and other
paraphernalia. A small boy and a
handful of matches-as usual in such
cases-was the cause of the fire. The
loss falls heavily on Arthur and such
an incident is deplorable especially
when the loss is to a man who gets
his by hard licks and the sweat of
his brow.-Ignacio Chieftain.

GIRLS! DRAW A MOIST
CLOTH THROUGH HAIR
TRY THIS. HAIR GETS THICK,
GLOSSY, WAvY AND eEkUTi-
Full AT ONCE.

Immediate?-Yes Certain?-thats
the Joy of it. Your hair becomes
light, wavy, fluffy, abundant and ap-
pears as soft, lustrous and beautiful
as young girls after Danderine
hair cleanse. Just try this-moisten
a cloth with a little Danderine and
carefully draw it through your hair,
taking one small strand at a time.
This will cleanse the hair of dust, dirt
or excessive oil, and in just few mo-
ments you have doubled the beauty of
your hair. A delightful surprise
awaits those whose hair has been
neglected or is scraggy, faded, dry,
brittle or thin. Besides identifying
the hair, Danderine dissolves every
particle of dandruff; cleanses, purifies
and invigorates the scalp, forever
stopping itching and falling hair, but
what will please you most will be after
a few weeks use, when you see new
hair-fine and downy at first-yes-
but really new hair growing all over
the scalp If you care for pretty, soft
hair and lots of it, surely get q
cent bottle of Knowlton's Danderine
from any drug store or toilet counter
and just try it.

It is the general opinion that in case
new trial should become necessary the
Government would be even better pre-
pared than at the first trial and would
have no difficulty in bringing about
the conviction of the defendants The
confessions recently made by George
L. Davis, a structural iron worker, who
was arrested a short time ago upon
the charge of having been connected
with certain dynamite outrages, have
placed into the hands of the Govern
ment a great deal of valuable evidence
against many of the defendants of the
previous trial. Two men, Ortie Nc
Manigal and Ed Clark, who actually
did much of the dynamiting work, tes-
titled for the Government in the first
| trial last fall and Davis would be a
third dynamiter to testify in case of a
second trial.
The history of this great conspiracy
case dates back to 1905, when the Iron
Workers Union began its struggle
with the National Erectors' Associa
ton, an organization of structural stee
and iron contractors employing non
union workmen. 1t appears that in
the course of that struggle, between
1905 and 1911 the conspirators of the
Iron Workers Union caused more thar
one hundred dynamite explosions t.
