 How do you-all go after things here? Do you get up big fund and send a committee out after the thing you want, just like you were going out to kill snakes? That is the only way to do it.
 T read what Congressman Paine, of New York, had to say about Hot Springs, and l didn't like it. He is all wrong. He is unjust.

If they could bathe and room and board yis- itors there for a dollar a day it is the governments duty 10 do it. They own the hot water, and there's no such water in the world as in this city.
 "l want to see the Democrats, now that we are in power do something for Hot Springs and the south. That's been the trouble with our party. They are afraid it seems, to go after things that will benefit the south. Out west they will spend thousands of dollars cutting out new trails that no one ever follows, or spend mil lion dollars on deepening some river, and the government ought to realize what it's got here. If they don't do it, make them a proposition to take over the hot springs, or offer to buy it. You'll find they'll hold on to it. I believe in keepins eyerlastngy at them.

the presence of a vast throng of
people that overfowed Independ-

large number Of prominent men
from all of the original thirteen
states, the president delivered
glowing tribute to the fathers OF
the republic, who had gathered

of his remarks he made a slguiti'

the Mexican people for liberty,
saying that "It 1t the duty of the
United States to help them in their
struggle against oppression" and
that the destruction of property is
not at all important question there.

day that of the candidates for the
Democratic nomination for U. S. SEN
ator my personal choice would be
Barratt O'Hara. The reason for that
is that as lieutenant governor Of Hi
nois he tried to use all the power he
had to do something, or to have gov
eminent do something, for the low
wage slaves.
The average politician won't brave
the wrath of the newspapers like
O'Hara did when he exposed such
captains of industry and exploiters Of
humanity as Julius RosenWald.
OHara is now paying the price for
offending the newspapers by expos
ing their big advertisers. There ap-
pears to be a conspiracy of silence
on their part. No mention is made
of O'Hara. He is ignored. The papers
don't even let their readers know he
is running,
Yet this lieutenant governor did
more for wage slaves by that inves-
tigatiOn than Gov. Dunno has done
during his entire career. The publicity
given department store Wage-slaVery
during that investigation was helpful
all over the country. It resulted in
many large employers Of labor in
many states establishing a minimum
wage for. women higher than they
had ever paid before.
l have never heard of either Sui
Ivan or Springer taking as keen an
interest in the working class; and if
either of these last two is the Demo-
cratic nominee, with Sherman run
ming on the Republican ticket, the |
only chance the working class will |
have to get friendly senator from
this state will be to support Raymond
Robins on the Progressive ticket, as
there will probably be small chance
of eIecting a Socialist this year and |
not much chance for a Progressive |

Democratic ticket and Sherman on

Biz wins no matter which is elected.
The Chicago War; like the little
war we are having right here in Chi
cago much better than the one over
in Europe. Over there the soldiers
are killing one another. Here they
merely call one another naughty
names.
Politics is war, of course, but the
Chicago war now on won't alter the
map of Illinois. While that European
war may force this entire country to
buy a new set of Biographies from
the school book trust.
This Chicago war isn't so hard on
the women, either. It gives the men
who think they are saving their
country a chance to go out nights
and meet up with the boys. Some of
them may come home picked, sOused
and piflicated, but they won't be
buried in soldiers grave.
I suppose imagination has lot to
do with what a man thinks he is do
ing in the political war. He gets all
het up and thinks he is saving Chi
cago, Cook county, the state of Hi
nois and the United States of Amer
lea, but in fact he is only helping one
set of fellows try to get some jobs.
Another lovely thing about our
home war is that the candidates will
permit Americanized Germans, Rus
slams, Austrians, FTenchmen, En-
glishmen, Poles, Irishmen, Italians,
etc., to vote at the same voting
booths.

A NOVEL IDEA IN THE TREAT
MENT OF WORLD HISTORY.
Larned's Division Into Six Great
Epoohs.

Larned's wonderful History of the
World treats the life of mankind for
seventy centuries like a great drama.
He divides it into six well-defin ed
acts or epochs, the chapters being
the scenes. Before the curtain rises
on each act. the reader beholds the
chief actors in a prologue-in which
appear the mighty characters whose
deeds and words have made or mar
red the destinies of nations. Their
biogra plies are fascinatingly sketch
ed by Larned, in the light of whose
luminous intellect the reader beholds
them in their true relation to world
history. In his treatment of the
events and happenings of history,
they assume a logical relation. and
the general plan and progress of civ
iliZation is made apparent to the
reader. The Importance of this great
history to the public cannot be over
estimated. We urge those of our
readers who have not yet done so.
TO at once avail themselves of our
generous coupon offer, beginning
with today's coupon which appears
elsewhere in this paper.
