 Wells uses as the basis of the great strides of science the development of atomic energy produced by the com bustion of atoms of bismuth and of lead. which left ashes deposit of god the retaliation of the alchemsit S dreams, and in the first installamei { of the book depicts horrible results upon the human race of this vast accumulation of the yellow metal. ,
 Holsten, the greatest of all Euro pean chemists" and the hero of this novel, made the discovery in 1883. and dd 1t in this manner
 He set up atomic disintegration in a minute particle of bismuth. It ex- ploded with great violence into a heavy gas of extreme radio-actiyity which disintegrated in it's turn in the course of seven days and it was only after another years work that he was able to show practically that the last result of this rapid release Of emery was geld.

 But the thing was done-at the cost of blistered chest and an in. iured finger, and from the moment when the invisible speck of hismuth flashed into irving and rending en- ergy, Holsten knew that he had opened a way for mankind. however marrow and dark it might still be to worlds of limitiess power"
 Science makes rapid strides rom 1883 and 1955 Holsten and an in ventcr named Roberts produce an en' zine which is operated by atomic energy Two Indian inventors also produce an engine operated by the same power.

'"ABOLISH CHILD POVERTY" is NEW SLOGAN
PROPOSED FOR AMERICAN CITIES

ABOLISH CnllQ pOVorIy! Is the new
slogan of Judge Henry Neil, the Oak

father of the mothers pension idea.
Neil is about to make tour of the
cities of the country to carry his new
humanitarian and economic slogan

mo city may claim to be rich,

borders who is not properly fed,

Judge Neil as he started on his tour
today.
81 am searching for city which

questions, and abolish child poverty"
Judge Neil asks questions when he
arrives in town. That is the method
he uses when he carried on the most
successful reform campaign in Amer
lea, and in three years had the
mothers pension system adopted by
law in 10 states. AS result of its
initial agitation thousands of chill
dren To-Day are led, as they are
schooled, without the faint of char
ity.
Among the questions Judge Neil
will ask are:
What relation, if any, is there be-
tween the millions of money on de-
posts in our banks and the fact that
children in this city have not proper
care on account of poverty?"
Should any city boast of its
wealth, resources and opportunities
when half of the children born of
parents who are poor die before they
reach school age?"
Should the business men of this
city unite and abolish child poverty?"
Can acity claim greatness if there
is child-poverty within its Hmits?"

DICK jones SHOULD
CARRY NOMINATION
He Stands for All Progressive
Measures Senator Pugh Is N i.
With Reactionaries.

AS the primary contest for the SEN
atorial nomination in the Fifty Eighth
District draws to a close, the indica-
tons are that Richard Jones will lead
the other two candidates.
Mr.. Jones has been making an &C
tive campaign and has had the sup
port of Progressives Of all parties.
The record of Senator Pugh Is tell
ing strongly against him in these days
when men are alert on public ques-
tons. ~
Carl j.. Buell. in his book, 1.-THE
Minnesota Legislature of 1913," thus
characterizes the record of the affable
and pleasant Senator who is striving
for denomination in the Fifty Eighth:
Voted against every progressive mea-
| sure except to take the committees
away from Burnqquist." >..* .
Those of us who have followed
Senator Pugh's record know that Mr..
Buell. is correct in his statement, and
the people of the Fifty Eighth, Dis
trict, who count among their numbers
many of the most progressive intelli-
gent citizens of Duluth, are not going
to- give their support to man who
has been so consistently reactionary.
Dick Jones stands for the principles
in which a majority of the people
of the. Fifty Eighth district believe.
A. great many of the voters in the dis
trict are members of labor organiz-
ations~"and gratefully remember the
excellent service which Dick has rem
dered to the labor union cause, in
Guiding his services as attorney as
an associate of Judge Fesler, in Sc
curing the dismissal of the injunction
proceedings commenced by the Street
Railway company against the strik-
ers during the street railway strike
of 1912.
| If the voters of the Fifty Eighth
district express their true sentiments
at the polls next Tuesday, Dick Jones
will be the high man on the list.

< Fortunately copies Of the photo
graphs were in the office Of the studio
| and had escaped the sneaking hands
of some individual. These pictures
were obtained Tuesday to be used as
evidence of innocense in a plea for
pardon to President Wilson.
At the time the pictures were taken
it had been reported that union men
were working on, the P. & r. dock
with non-union men contrary to the
laws of the Structural Iron Workers
union. Photographs were taken of a
leg under construction showing the
men who were employed on the job.
The purpose of this was to circulate
the picture through the official organ
of the union and in that way have the
union men identified, and if necessary
expelled from the organization. -
In comparing the picture produced
at the trial with the one taken for
Mr.. Beum it developes that the pic
lures were taken at least 600 feet
from each other. In short the game
was merely to get a structural. iron
worker even if 1t were necessary to
have trumpet up evidence against
him.

otherwise known as detectives is

evidence against the detective agency
which was implicated in this affair is

CHILD LABOR rs NOT ... IN.

labor in its great Industries because it
costs too much, were the views Of
Louis w. Hine, Of New York, ex-
pressed in an address in Louisville,
KY. III. 81. Il. ST.. ..s>, I -. :t.
Child labor is not economical to in
dustry, he said, for the reason that
the returns from such service are poor
the amount Of work done is much
smaller and is of an inferior quality,
although requiring greater supervision
which adds to the expense Of the pro-
duct, as do also the greater proper
ton Of accidents. The greatest cost
to the industry, he maintained, was
Of inefficient workers due to their
having been prematurely sent to work
and unable to do good work later ii
life. h; ss# ~ # II Is 81 I. s S.
The cost to society comes IN the
maintenance Of homes for delinquents

low wages undercuts wages Of adults,
who, then being unable to property
