ALL passenger steamers?
Was not THEIR government on
the job-federaI inspectors as well as
city policemen right at the dock
seeing that laws fer the protection of
the lives of passengers and crew were
rigidly enforced?
Well, the people took it for granted
as they take much for granted con-
corning the law and its enforcement.
And the inspection, the law and
the entire governmental machinery
wasn't worth a tinker's dam until the
Eastland had turned turtle and
dumped her precious, trusting hui
man freight into the Chicago river,
and down, down to death with scarce
ly a fighting chance for their lives
THEN organized Government rose
to it's grandest. OficiaIdom became
human and went the full limit of hui
man endeavor to save life, rescue
dead bodies and start on man-hUnt
for somebody to punish.
There can be no criticism of OFF,
cialdom when the raw human being
bursts through uniforms. A grating
policeman may risk his life to stop a
runaway horse, or plunge into the
lake or river to save human lives. |
The best part of him is MAN, not |
official
And now horror arouses all the
best there is in all of us. Newspapers |
that never called attention to danger
Gus steamers are in keen competition |
to raise funds for the relief of strick- |
en- families for men, their manhood |
stirred up until it rises above their
greed, will generously do for the dead |
what they won't do for the living.
Let a girl attempt suicide in the
lake because of poverty, and kind /
people will rush to her assistance, al
though they paid little or no attention
to her before she was looking for
work.

! they denounced the seamen's union
for demanding, and getting, more
protection for themselves and pas
sengers.
Some of these same seamen had
protested to YOUR government
against the Eastland Had their pro-
tests been needed then there would
probably be no Eastland horror now.
Oh, yes, OficiaIdom is busy NOW
that it has happened. The LAW is
on the rampage with blood in it's
blind eye. Arrests have been made.
More may be made. There will be in
VestigatiOns, indictments, trials, and
possibly convictions, sentences, pun
ishment.
And while remOrse is on the Job
there may be rigid inspection. The
searchlight may be turned on other
steamers, and faults found that Of
f1cialdom couldn't see until this awful
thing happened.
It took the Iroquois theater horror
to bring about real inspection of the
aters - until people had time to
forget.
It took the sinking of the Titanic
to make OficialdOm see merit in the
seamen's biI-and yet the sinking Of
the Titanic wasn't lasting enough in
it's effect to force OficiaIdom to pay
heed to the solemn warning Of the
lake seamen's union about the excur-
sion boats of Chicago.
If we-aI of Us-were one-tenth
part as effective in protecting life as
we are in sOTrOwing over death there
would be, less occasion for sorrow.
We are ALFRED stingy with our ounce
of prevention and Iavishly generous.
with our pound of cure.
In this particular case somebody
will be eteTnaIy damned, because out
of the guilt of its own conscience Of,
fcialdOm will damn and denounce
and go man-huntinP for a goat In

COMFORT ON THE FARM.

No Excuse For Homes Lacking In
Modern C~onveniences.
The farm is conceded to be the most
healthful place in the world to live. 1t
Is time now to take serious thought as
to II and see II we can't
make our farm homes the ~pleasantest
and most convenient spots also. writes
a contributor to the Farm and Fire
side.
There Is no longer excuse for homes
which are totally lacking in modern
c~onveniences and labor saving devices.
The man who today remarks that
what was good enough for my grand
father is good enough for me" is not
considered conservatives; be is set down
either as a lazy good for nothing or a
lunatic. Nor does he speak the truth.
The grain on his farm Is not cut with
a sickle nor tied by hand.
The homes which lack comforts are
becoming rarer each day. but there are
many cases where more might be done
to bring the house equipment up to the
standard Of town houses-cases where
natural resources close at hand are
neglected and the owner fails to per-
ceive his opportunities for introducing
new cOnveniences.
The back breaking drudgery of carry
ing water from the spring or we'll to
the house should not be tolerated on
any farm which holds the least preten-
sion Of progressiveness. The gasoline
engine or electric motor. the hydraulic
ram or even a windmill will raise the
water from its source. and you have
only to provide a tank to receive 1t.
In mild climates this tank may be
built out of doors and pipes laid in
shallow bitches to the house. If the
