CLOSEST OF CLOSED SHOPS

Indianapolis, Ind, Jan. 21.-Prac
tically all the locals in the anthracite
fields which have sent delegates to
the convention of the United Mine
/ Workers of America are delinquent
and on that account not entitled to
representation in the convention.
The subject was brought before the
convention today In an appeal to seat
the delegates The convention did so.
The report Of the committee attrib-
uted the delinquency to the new tariff
and currency law, many of the min
ers being employed only a part OF
the time and to the absence of a
check off system Dispatch to the
New York Sun.
Without doubt, the hardup condi-
ton of the United Mine Workers is
in large measure correctly attributed
to the new tariff, which has led to the
unemployment of many thousands Of
mine and other workers. Is it not
about time for the labor organizations
of the United States to give more at
tention to the close relation between
the tariff and unemployment and
wages? Intelligent inquiry along this
line will lead to but one conclusion,
namely that an adequately Protect
i've tariff Is the best possible guar
antee, the only sure guarantee OF
work and wages. A tariff which shuts
out the products Of cheap foreign Ia
Dor is in itself q closed ship of the

HE LIKES THE PICTURE

The Brooklyn Eagle, newspaper
which cannot be accused of fervid
devotion to the policy of protection,
but which stands high as an intelli-
gent defender Of American business
rights, is not favorably impressed
with the attitude of the Wilson ad-
ministration toward business. The
Eagle quotes the Attorney General as
saying that 1t is not for him to con-
slider whether the destruction of o
great business will hurt the farmer
or the merchant; that 1t is not for
him to consider even the general
welfare of the public. His function,
says the Eagle is to destroy or to
ruin, or to cripple-if he can. His
function is to make as heavy as pos
sible what the president has called
the burden of existing laws. His func-
ton is to set the juggernaut In mo-
ton. And, as to consequence, the
American truthfully says that since
the tariff bill was passed:
We have had 70 days of diminishing
production of gradually extending
encouragement, of falling bank clear
ings in all sections of diminished
building operations and Of languish,
ing trade.
Isn't it about time that the face
of picture such as this was turned
TO the wall? 1t can hardly be pos
sible that Secretary Redfield likes
the looks Of It.
No; the picture is not going to be
turned to the wall until protection.
list administration turns it. We arc
just beginning to experience the new
freedom, and the schoolmaster Of the
White House likes the picture.

MIGHT PUZZLE THE SAINT
Good Old Bishop Seen Wondering at
the observanees Accompanying
hls Natal Day.

In the general exchange Of greet
ings. that vary from the penny card
to the expensive floral offerings to
friends. sweethearts and wives, It
may be interesting to look to the why
and wherefore Of this days celebra-
ton.
In the first place, there doesn't seem
to be any reason why little Eros, the
god Of love. has been 80 hopelessly
tangled up with the austere bishop
who gave his name to the day.
Tradition gives us no reason for at
tributing love songs or lifting mes
sages to the good old saint. Indeed,
he was far from the thoughts of the
human emotions. His tranquil stead
fastness to the Christian faith
brought down the wrath of the Claud-
ian persecution, and he was thrown
into prison. The blind daughter Of
the keeper of the prison pitied the
unfortunate captive and tried to com
fort him. She was rewarded by the
return of her eyesight, due to st. Val
entine, legend tells US. Because Of
streets and finally beheaded.
Perhaps the pity of the blind girl
was akin to love, and there may be
this faint claim to the Invasion of
this factor.
At any rate, ladies have sighed and
lovers have burst forth into avow-
ais Of their affections, on paper.
In the days Of the quill pen, the
valentines were considered a luxury,
and hours were spent guiding and
painting and decorating with verse,
homemade and otherwise. Hearts,
doves and cupids were brought into
play. and II one halted for declara-

Carnival Here All This Week.
Monday night marked the op"l ing Of all
the many and varied attraction s Of the
Tropical Amusement Company, who are
scheduled TO exhibit In Abbe>ille all OF
this week. .
A clean, well. regula' ed aggregation is
this carnival presenting twelve shows OF
unusual merit, two sensational free acts
and carrying an Italian hand Will, h at its
Monday. concert IN the square sur rised a
large audience with an extensive program
rendered in b way that proves every men,
Der of thu band TO he a real musician.
On the extensive midway are fWl nd ex-
hihitions appealing to every class Of show
goers, the long string OF attractions Icing
headed by the ever popular riding devices
the nferry-go-round or flying jimmie and
the Ferris wheel. A giant fat baby, a frog
boy, the Malay prince, a den Of huge
snakes and a mother and baby octopus are
all seen in one show known as the Five-in-
One. A most mystifying entertainment
is provided by the Dunbars fresh from big
vaudeville houses) in the pavilion known
as Egyptian Hall, while at the Beautiful
Orient one sees portrayed the customs Of
the East as they really exist. Joyland is
q popular show which is mirth-provoking
to the most austere. The Jesse James
show provides thrills a-plenty and the Au-
tomato City especially pleases the ladies
and children. Good comedians, singers,
dancers and coon-shouters furnish a first
class performance at the Old Plantation
and there are innumerable other features
which lack Of space will not permit us to
mention. All In all, The Tropical Amuse-
ment Company have a bang-up show Of
which the most pleasing feature Is its alb
solute cleanliness and freedom from OBJ
scene and suggestive performances.
The carnival will be open every after
noon and evening during the week. X
