THE GOOD
 GREEN EARTH

I sometimes sit and ponder o'er the stories I've been told, of mansions in the heavens and the shining streets of gold, and of the pearly gates they say are way up in the sky, where the chosen people enter when their time has come to die. And often think that if the Lord will let me have my way, the hills of old Missouri are where I'd want to stay ---I would rather wander in the wales of this green land of mine than walk the gilded boulevards where dazzling jewels shine. do not banker for the shores along the Jasper Sea---thc Meramec and Gasconade look mighty good to me. For the earth is my sweet mother and love her every scene---I would not trade for streets of gold her scented lawns of green. And even through the winter days, when snow lies o'er the glen, my soul would wait n patience till the springtifne came again. do not care for heav'n nly harps and all the tinseled ttings---I'd d rather listen while the thrush his simple carol sings. would not feel at ease at all away beyond the sky---Td feel far more at home. know. to stay here when die. ---Ex.

INTERVENTION
 IN MEXICO

Let no workingman allow himself to be swept off his feet by tn e agonized cries of an inspired prostitute press for American intervention i'll Mexico.
 There is well-de6ned conspiracy by capitalists who have money invested there, to influence public sentiment to- ward that end. Much money is being spent and interested newspapers ar e spreading grossly exaggerated stories of alleged outrages.
 The millions of money invested i'll Mexico by American capitalists, and for the preservation of which intervention is desired, was so invested i'll the expect ation of reaping enormous profits through the exploitation of the ''peon" labor there.
 Money so invested is gamble,
 The insecurity of the government was one of the risks incurred.
 Why should American lives and treas ure be expended o insure tn profits hoped for?
 The life of o Il e American mothers S brave D oy is Q nor e consequence, o more value, than all the dirty dollars with which these gamblers play
 The war of the secession in America also caused much loss and hardships to foreign investors to the cotton manu- lecturers of England whose business stagnated during the struggle,
 We would not brook interference then; why should we interfere ill the internal disputes of foreign land
 The only excuse we can offer is the utter helplessness of Mexico against the superior force we can muster And that would be the attitude of a bully.
 Let Willie Hearst and the others who have money bet on the possibility of reaping huge profits from the cheap labor of the helpless Mexican workers do their own fighting.
 The American workers would be the ones expected to furnish the fighting force, and finally pay for tha money ex- pended ill case of American interference. And the workers have nothing to gain thereby. .---Ex.

Like trampled flower she lay there Tn the cabin on the hill; ''Jennie's sick, " said Tom, her brother, To the foreman of the mill Tossing in her restless fever, On blanket soiled and torn, Lay this work-worn child of sorrow, Eight sad years since she was born. Then her fevered fancy wandered And her eyes grew wide with fear Mamma hurry! there's the whistle I'll be late if I lie here. See the wheel above the window, What big one. See it whirl! Mamma, I'm so tired of working And I'm such a little grill" Can't have dolly, Mamma, Like the one we saw to day? Are there mills in heaven, Mamma3 Won't God let me run and play? See how fast the Spools are running Faster---f -faster---Oh! my head! No-I did not do it No. sir, Please did not break the thread!" There, my fingers caught, 'tis bleed

 Stop the wheel and let me go Mamma, quick, the wheel will kill ne! Stop it Oh, it hurts me SOL" Then the angel paused beside her; Famed her with his cealing breath Touched her beating hesrt and stopped

Sam Gompers, the capitalist labor leader, has no use for Reds. Gompers has as much use for the Reds as the Reds have for Gompers. No grafter has any use for those who expose his graft. The working class has had many years of Gompers and it has done them little good, but HOW through the edu- cational work carried on by such Reds as Debs, DeLeon and thousands of other Reds, the workers are getting oil to Gompers aud they are beginning to realize that Sam is the best friend that the capitalist class ever had.
