WHY THEY HATE. O'HARA
The words which follow were
spoken by Lieut.-Gov. O'Hara, March
I, at close of third session of the
O'Hara Welfare Commission, then
known as the O'Hara White Slave
Commission. They and their carry
ing out explain better than anything
else the fierce hatred of Big Bust
ness for the Commission. and they
also explain why these servants of
Big Business in the House intend to
choke the Commission to death:
This commission has the power
to summon before it anyone it
pIeases. ! intend that it shall sum-
mon before it the big employers of
Chicago to explain how it comes that
they are paying starvation wages to
young girls, and thus driving some
young girls to the streets.
1.-The miIIionaires who pay. their
young girl employees starvation
wages are in the same class with
the professional white sIaVers, the
pimps. They are just as responsible
as the white sIaVers for such wrecks
of human lives as have been before
this commission today
81 do not care how may millions
a man may have; do not care what
his social standing may be; intend
that he shall explain himself to this
committee if he be one of those who
drive young girls to shame and help
ruin the Womanhood of Illinois by
the low wages they pay those who
have helped them make their mill
lions"

THE NEW JERUSALEM

The spirit of modern progress is mov

playing havoc with its ancient pictur.
esoueness and hoary traditions. accord
ing TO the Rev. S. +. Graham, president
of the Wesleyan Theological seminary

"In Egypt" he said, ''the new order

of thing where the hand of English In

SINGING MOTHERS.
Charm of the Music of Their Voices to
Their Little Ones.

They came TO me in a dream-those
singing mothers. A long. slow pro-
cession of shadowy forms. beautiful as
rainbows and as wonderful, singing a
strange haunting melody full of mys-
terry. First came troops of girl moth
ers. clasping their little babes with
tenderness that was half fear and
with Vide. inquiring eyes filled with
holy light aud the consciousness OF the
deepest realization of life Then came
strong mothers of youth. leading hap
py faced children and confident with
a sense of power. bnoyant with hope
and radiant with promise. Last of all
came silver mothers of men. leaning
on their stalwart sons and. though
bowed with years. yet gloriously
young in spirit. hallowed by memories
and glowing with the victory of
achievement. And /. mother. watch

the divine Significance of motherhood
and all the hidden meanings in the

All this is music in a marvellous
mood, hut there is no music on earth
more appealing or more far reaching
than the voice of mother singing to
her little ones. No audience ever lis
tened with keener rapture to any
prima donna than that little group
gathered in the twilight hour at a
mothers knee. 1t is her dearest JOY

RAID ON BANANA BUTTER.
Judge Lands Active, but Treasury Has
No Complaint Against Makers.


The officials of the treasury depart
ment are at odds with United States
Judge Kenesaw NJ. Lands of Chicago
over his action in directing the United
States attorney there to institute an in
veSdgation by the federal grand jury
on charges that the packing companie:
which manufacture oleomargarine are
defrauding the government out of the
internal revenue tax of 10 cents .
pound on colored oleomargarine. The
tax is only half cent pound on the
uncolored product.
Some time ago the Oleomargarint
manufacturers devised new method
of making the product from banana
oil. Through their counsel they sub
mitted to the treasury department not
only all the ingredients. but also the
finished product, to ascertain whether
they would be prosecuted for evadine
the ten cent tax if they used the new
method. The government chemists
made an analysis of the samples sub
mitted and Informed the manufactur'
ers that they could use their method
without being liable for the higher tax
According to the officials of the treas
ury, the packing officials are innocent
of any deliberate evasion of the inter
nal revenue tax and have co-operated
with the federal officials in freely sub
mitting their samples and process to
the government chemists for official
sanction before its adoption.

soIons In an uproar.

Some years ago the Spanish cabinet
decided to take legal proceedings
against certain members of Parliament
who were suspected of misusing pub
lie money. The opposition resolved
at all costs to prevent this. and for
forty hours on end they kept up most
amazing uproar. They cheered and
shouted. and sang litanies in chorus
The effect OF the latter performance
was extraordinary. One deputy would
loudly intone verse. all his friends
chanted the response. and so they went
on for nearly two days and nights un-
til truce was proclaimed.-Pearson s

KAISER STILL COLD TO SON.
Crown Prince May Pay Emperor In
His Own Coin.

His Own Coin.
1t seems to be quite the usual thing
for reigning monarchs and their heirs
to be at loggerheads. We can all call
to mind the treatment of the Emperor
Frederick of Germany by his son, the
present kaiser.
And it looks very much as though
the latter gentleman is likely to be
paid out in his own coin, for the es-
arrangement between the crown prince
and his father shows no signs of be
ing healed. This being the case, the
quarrel between the two assumes an
altogether international importance,
for at any moment the crown prince
may be called upon to assume the
reins of government.
Since his views are opposed to those
of his father, it naturally follows that
when he takes his place at the helm
he will steer the German ship of state
upon a different course to that which
has until now been sailed.
The refusal of the kaiser to associ
ate his eldest son and heir with hin
in the government of the empire has
aroused a considerable amount of pub
lie attention.
The crown prince is universally
liked, and his consort is a favorite
with all classes. 1t is generally ac
knowledged that he is capable leye
headed, sensible and able young man
wholesome in every sense of the word
and possessed of many qualities that
might be used to the advantage of his
fellow countrymen.
