seems to be, Better half a life aseptic

Without a days delay machiner,

Commissioners to secure the co-opera

of States to the West in dispensing
the bands of /. w. w. and their rag-tag.
and-bobtail followers who, scorning and
refusing work, are on their way to
Washington to complain that they can
not find it.
This "army" was organized in. Cali
fornia and as proof of the utter worth
lessness of its members it is sufficient
to say that they lost the sympathy and
aroused the ire even of Gov. Hiram
Johnson when they refused to consider
offers of employment at good wages.
They are simply banded together for
the purpose of obtaining notoriety which
they hope will bring them food without
toll for the next few months. I'm
fortunately this herd of hoboes are re-
ceiving assistance along the route from
people who are compelled to work for
what they have to eat. Some OF their
|benefactors, whose sympathieS are easily
worked upon, have been simply misled.
Others have helped them on their way
as the easiest method of getting rid of
them. By one means or another they
are making progress, and while it is
possible that, as the warm weather ap-
proacheS, they may find more at
trsctive stopping place, Washington cam
not afford to take chances of having
them come here if any possible way
can be found to distribute them among
States and municipalities which have a
surplus amount of compulsory public
labor awaiting the necessary talent.
Washington has not yet forgotten its
experience with Coxey's army, almost
a score OF years ago. After the fasco
on Capitol Hill the city found itself with
several hundred tramps on its hands
with no means of support. Camps
were provided for them and they were
fed for weeks through public charity. |

There is no reason or excuse for per-
hitting this new army 10 foist itself |
on the Capital. Possibly the admins
tration might lend its influence in bring
ing about cooperation with governors
to keep it away, especially when it is
brought to mind that it was the last
Democratic administration that was
honored by visit from an army of "the
unemployed after tramp across the
country.
Long before this band of work
'hirkers can reach Washington there
will be plenty of employment in the
West, upon which they will have
tudiously turned their backs. Sympathy
on them is misplaced.

They were comfortably seated and were
waiting for the kettle to boil. when hor-

ON the scene.
Immediately a wild rush was made for
safety, while the raging creature pounded
after one lady who, unfortunately. had a
red parasol By great good fortune she
nipped over the stile before il could reach
her. Then, reeaining her breath, she
turned around.

claimed. Here have been a vegetarian

Among Preston Gibson's qualifca-
tions for diplomatic post or high
position in the State Department New
York newspaper mentions that he dances
the Gibson glide" clad in "black coat,
satin shorts, silk stockings, a lace jabot
and fancy waistcoat." All very fine,
but that doesn't clinch the job, for he
has never danced the "half-and-half"
with Mr.. Vernon Castle. That gentle
man says over his own signature:
Whatever Mr.. Preston Gibson may
say. and l know him very well per-
sonally, | have never had the pleasure
Of dancing with him or any other man."

will have to look further.

Here's the bishop of the Episcopal
Diocese of Massachusetts demanding
that every church collection be counted
in the vestry and the amount put down
in book in the presence of at least
one witness" He says: when a poor
woman drops dime-part of her hard
earned wages-into the contribution
plate she not only has a right to ask
what becomes of it but the church has
a right TO demand that the utmost care
be taken in the use of and accounting
for this sacred gift" The good bishop
has discovered that some church treas
nrers are in the habit of counting the
collections at their homes. Next thing,
some of the up-to-date churches will

cash registers attached.

Ii is easy to understand much of the

taken away?
