ments of tents in which the strikers
were living after having been turn
ed out of their shacks The women
and children had taken refuge in
the cellars. but the smoke aud
flames found them out. A press
report says.
1.-The bodies of eleven children,
and two women were taken from
the death cellar Of the tent at Lud-
low by Red Cross agents, where
they we're held trapped by the guns
of the militia in Mondays fight.
THE cellar is ten feet deep and
less than six feet square at the
bottom. in this hole lay the bodies
heaped together. The mothers had
evidently tried to shelter their
helpless little ones with their
bodies. But the babies-one of
them no more than eleven days old
struggled when the suffocating
smoke crept down. Their little
hands, Scared by the flames,
showed how they had. reached out,
trying to pull themselves out Of
the flames"
After this the strikers went out
on a campaign of vengeance and
wrecked eight mines; and other
innocent persons persisted. 1t is a
mournful spectacle of ruthless op-
preston on the one side and savage
and despairing resentment on the
other. Local public sympathy is
so strongly with the strikers that at
the recent elections the Labor
party swept all Southern Colorado.
The point is that throughout
these troubles the women have done
their full share of the suffering
and now they are doing their share
Of the dying. Who can say that
war-military or .industrial-is a
question with which women have
nothing to do?-A. S. B. in Wo-

HEARSTS ATTACKS ON BRYAN

William Jennings Bryan really
needs no defense against the at
tacks of Hearst. Between the two
men there is no comparison; there
a be nothing but contrast.
Bryan is truthful and honorable;
Hearst untruthful and dishonor-
able; Bryan commands respect be-
cause he is worthy of respect :
Hearst is net respected because he
is unworthy of respect. Hearst is
INSCRIPTIONS, Bryan is scrnpulous
in all his private and public deal
inHs.
Hearst attacks Bryan ostensibly
for many reasons. The real reasons
for the present attacks upon Bryan
by Hearst is that. Bryan knocked
the Hearst-M urphy plans at Balti-
more galley-west and thus brought
about the nomination Of Woodrow
Wilson. Bryan himself pays no at
tention to the Hearst attacks upon
him. II is unnecessary. The Ameri-
can people know Bryan. They may
not always agree with him, but
they respect him and, millions of
them love him with sincere devo-
ton. Where Bryan is best known
he is most loved. Where Hearst is
hest known he is most despised. g.
As to Bryan's alleged retreat
from the position of the Demo
cratic platform in regard to the
exemption of American ships from
canal tolls" he has done nothing
of the kind. The platform contra.
diets itself in regard to that matter
by standing against subsidies and
then declaring for toll exemptions
In the latter. declaration it demands
that we break our word. Frum that
position any man should retreat

course. No party can gain any.
