3s-YEAR.oLD MULE MEETS
WITH A QUICK DEATH

Mule limbo, picked up on the
streets last Tuesday by the police of
Ducas street station for vagrancy met
a quick death today at the hands of
DR.. P. e. Bailey, agent of the st. Paul
Humane society. Jimbo's age was I'M
certain but Dr.. Bailey, who examined
the hind hoofs and jaw where the
teeth used to be, estimated his age
as more than 3S years.
limbo was arrested last Tuesday at
South Robert and ConcOrr. streets. 1t
was evident that he had no money,
no work, no settled place of abode
and could not account for his conduct
SO he was taken to the Ducas station
and given some bran and fresh air
to munich. Hay was not useful to him
because he had no false teeth. The
placidity of his disposition and the
fact that he had put the kicking habit
behind him made him a general IA
vorite and when DR.. Bailey pronounc-
ed limbo ready for the next world
there was general sorrow among the
patrolmen.
Medical science could not do much
for Jimbo," said DR.. Bailey; without
his teeth he was bound to decline in
health. Besides, his wind was defec'
tive. He was running on three cylin'
ders and he missed on one of them al
that."-St. Paul Dispatch.

industrial Relations

The obvious partisanship of Chair
man Walsh of the United States Com
mission on Industrial Relations has
already detracted from the prestige
of that body considered as a unit.
But as the commission Is divided for
mally into three groups, one repre-
senting the employers, another the
employees, and a third the general
public, and as each individual, as well
as each group, has been permitted to
express in supplementary and minor
ity reports such of his conclusions as
differed from those Of his colleagues,
the conduct of the chairman may be
accepted as of only incidental import
ance in the general work of the COM
mission.
The Dispatch has already discussed
the report Of the findings of the rep
resentatives of the employers as out
lined in advance in the news reports
of last Saturday. The surprising
feature Of the advance account a
it's many concessions in favor Of the
cause of labor and its arrangement Of
certain practices of large employers.
The revelation to the public of the
full report brings with it eve more
surprises of this same character. If
there we're anything of an anti-labor,
pro-capital spirit in the members Of
the commission representing the en-
ployers before the inquiry was begun,
that spirit seems to have been ex-
tinguished by the investigation, The
spokesman Of the employers appear
to have arrived at the conclusion that
the most friendly service they could
perform for their clients was to ten
der them timely warning that certain
policies must be altered or they
would invite disaster.
Such is the character of the report
of S. Thurston Ballard, of the en-
ployers' group, an excerpt from which

of chief significance produced from
the sum total of the commissions act
ivities:
Any student cannot fail to trace
certain fundamental causes which
underlie industrial unrest, which
will continue to grow until either
the causes are peacefully removed
or revolution ensue
The first lies in the inequitable
distribution of the fruits of in
dustry.
Our industrial system makes it
possible for one man to take un
to himself and claim as his own
a fortune of 100000 900 or more,
while millions of deserving men,
awaiting themselves of every OPP
%portunity for unremitting toll, are
only able to secure a grave in the
potter's field
The creation of such fortunes
naturally breeds in the mind of
the pOssesor the sentiment, belief
and practice that he is superior
to society and not subject TO the
law. The possession renders him
practically immune from the pen
alties prescribed by the law.
This warning has often been SOUND
ed by men identified with the radica
and progressive schools of polite
and has been discounted accordingly

Stole One Mans Car
Another Mans Wife

Leo Hardy, of Blandinsville, ILL.,,

charge of stealing a Ford car belong

Hardy, accompanied by a woman
and a boy, was seen to desert a Ford
automobile in the southwestern part

fore finally leaving it, however, the
license number was taken from it and
as afterward ascertained, deposited in

The suspicious actions of the party
caused the neighbors later to notify
Sheriff Elkins, who in turn wrote the
secretary of state of Illinois inquiring
to whom the license had been issued.
In the meantime 1t was discovered
that the man and wonlan and child
