Carefully gathered statistics show
that in the city of New York the gar
ment workers are afflicted more fire.
quently with tuberculosis than any
other class of workers. The majority
of these workers do not, as is often
thought, work i'll their homes. They
work in the tall crowded buildings,
situated in eongested districts, ten.

where every floor masses hundreds of
workers. Many are tubepculous with
out knowing it. Others know that
they are tuberculous, but perhaps
fearing their discharge hide their dis
ease as long as they can; but in the
meantime they disseminate the germ
of tuberculosis by coughing in their
neighbors' faces or over the clothing
they manufacture, or what is still
more frequent, spread the disease by
careless expectoration. New York

The Haines Brand of Courage.

The Denver Times of August 81
pays Governor William r. Haines !
nice little compliment and seems
some what surprised at what MainE
people could have told it long ago
that the Hon. William T. has way
OF being frank and fearless that wins
friends even among his opponents,
The gentleman also has IA square jaw
that should indicate to any observer
that he is not turned aside nor feazed
by small obstacles. Maine is toda y
enjoying a living demonstration of
that in real enforcement of law
such as it had not experienced in a
long time.
The Denver Times says:
Governor William T. Haines of
Maine is the possessor of a rare
brand of courage. A Republican
governor from rock-ribbed Republi
can state. he faced a Democratic audi
ence at the annual Democratic club
picnic at Lakeside yesterday after
noon and spoke what was on his
mind.
Il have listened to my Democratic
friends tell you what they have done
for the nation he said, but | be-
lieve If you will stop to consider you
will find that they haven't done L.
yet"
The Republican governor had lis
tened to flights of oratory on the
Democratic tariff and currency plat
form, but that did not prevent his
giving his Democratic audience some
advice.
Don't be too partisan ne said.
Don't play the demagogue, and re-
member that labor and capital must
go hand in hand. Remember that
commerce is entitled to fair share
of protection and remember, also, that
it has been the great moneyed inter
ests of the country which have built
up your state"
Governor Haines said other things
not exactly in keeping with the
Democratic point of view, but his
audience liked his frankness. The
applause that greeted his remarks
proved the unusual situation of Re-
publican governor making the hit of
the afternoon at strictly Demo-
cratic gathering.

First Get a Clean Bill,

The signed statement of Robert J.
Peacock of Lubec, would seem to place
E. NJ. Lawrence of Lubee, Progressive
candidate for Congress. in tight
place. 1t has been repeatedly sug
gested throughout the campaign that
Mr.. Lawrence was putting up a good
sized bluff by threatening right and
left. while carefully avoiding the
frank and open placing of himself on
such important measures as have
been in question.
were an official, Mr.. Lawrence has
been open to public criticism 1t is
by such defense that the people are
saved from being imposed upon by
wolves in Sleeps clothing. 1t is only
when such criticism is manifestly
manufactured for the purpose of in
juring the personal standing of such
candidate or official, has he remedy IN
the law.
We believe the rumors were so ap-
parently well grounded as to be of vital
interest in labor circles. That Mr..
Lawrence did not promptly and un-
equivocally make his position plain,
was his mistake. 1t seems hardly
possible that there could have been So
much smoke without small amount
OF fire. And bluff that might last
until after election is a poor way to
cover ones past record.
The Kennebec Journal has not used
the Harrington and other reports in
the case because it had no time in
which to investigate the unsupported
statements. But now that the cam
paign is over we would suggest to Mr.
Lawrence that it might be well for
him to clear up this matter and place
himself right before the public. 1t
might help him in case he ever cared
to become candidate for Office
again. A clean bill of health is a
handy thing to have in the pocket
when asking for public approval.
The worst charges made against Mr..
Peters in the campaign were confined
TO Lewiston Journal classification of
him in it's hephenated history of
such asinine declarations as made by
Senator Beveridge. At Augusta
Beveridge said of Mr.. Peters: Re
dictionary? OF course he is reaction
ary, II you don't believe it look at
his picture" At Gardiner Mr. Bev-
eridge again displayed the breadth
and reliability of his utterances by
declaring: Peters is so reactionary
that he walks backward"
Pretty serious charge, wasn't it?
Coming from such a source in such
manner and after the speaker himself
had been sneering at the declarations
of Mr.. Peters on all the great public
questions of the day.
That has been the chief worry of
Bull Moose leaders during the cam
paign: the fact that the platform of
Hon. John A. Peters was more sub
stantial while just as progressive as
their own. All their speakers and
their organ have sneering1y referred
to it, as if it were impossible for any
man or party to favor "A policy abreast
of the times unless he wore Bull
Moose emblem and beloved about the
iniquities of everybody who does not
wear the tag.

HOW MOTTO TRAVEL.
Seeking "All the Comforts OF Rome
No Way, to See Foreign Lands

Man finds in Rome what lie takes
there" and the tourist in the Carrib-
bean seems to carry there only an in
tense inconsistencies for his native nag
and main street. Such being his atti-
tude of mind, all he sees only makes
him the more homesick. The il-paved
streets and narrow sidewalks, the tood
cooked in oil. the tiny street cars. the
boy policemen, the fact that the ma
tives de not speak his laneuaSe-ail
these things combine to fill him with
discomfort. That he is seeing many
wonderful, curious and beautiful things
that he cannot see at OakNiew or ROCK
port does not satisfy him. He wants
the wonderful. curious and beautiful
novelties, but he wants them with all
the comforts of home. He wants palm
trees. mooniit plaZas, guaya jelly and
the dungeons of Moro castle plus buck
wheat cakes and Vermont maple sirup.
Ninety per cent of the Americans who
go to Havana visit hotels that cater
especially for them. To meet the de-
mand of the tourist for home cooking
and pies like mother used to make
they give him food that has been ship
ped South in cold storage and prepared
by a Spanish chef who does not under
stand American cooking. And on his
return home the American traveller re-
ports that in Havana you can get moth
ing you can eat. That does not estab
lish .he fact that he is an authority on
food, but only that he never lunched

mopolita. or the Dos Hermanos. He
will not learn that it is we'll to drink

they do not take the walk. Instead,
the women of the party visit the local

HIGHER THIlNGS
.OFLIFE

In meeting the multitudinous
duties and responsibilities of life,
we should not overlook the fact
that the accumulation of money,
or making a living, as we COM
monty term it, is not more import
ant than making a life.
Large crops, fine stock, fine
houses, and a fat bank account are
all very desirable, but eagerness
for this gain should not cause a
narrow life.
Life should afford time, oppor-
tunity and inclination for the best
things in life, contentment and
happiness. The association with
our neighbors and the enjoyment
of the better things of life should
have attention, even if some of
the utilitarian energies must be re-
Taxed.
To live a good and useful life,
rear an intelligent family that will
make society better, is noble.
Wealth is not to be compared with
good influence for the better
ment of man.
Let US not forget that in making
life we increase our capacities for
enjoying the pleasures of life and
the association of those who live
near US.
There are those who have been
successful in gaining wealth, but
in neglecting education and social
relations with their neighbors, and
have not the capacity to enjoy it.
Wealth, or even moderate means,
is of little value if it can not be of
use to make those with whom we
come in contact better.
Let us make life worth living
and our living will be commensur-
ate with our lives.
The Newark journal. (Newark, Ark.) 1901-1959, 1913-08-22

with patience and persistence they
are sure in the long run.
In the olden days, when this
country was a wilderness, it took
the hardest sort of courage fol-
men to be pioneers. 1t takes as
much or more courage of another
sort to be a pioneer in our civilized
age, when it comes to starting the
task of upbuilding in our country
districts. The man who launches
it is going to run up against
enough snags and discouragements
and ridicule and indifference to
make him feel that he is wearing
a crown of thorns.
But in the end, if he is right,
and possesses enough perserver-
ance, he will triumph and be re-
warded by the crown of gold that
comes from the gratitude of his
awakened friends and neighbors.
