is a touch of delicacy and daintiness
about Il which places IL far above the
average of vaudeville attractions.

COMRADE DYE ASKS SOME
PRACTICAL QUESTIONS
Dear Editor.

Dear Editor.
Times are getting no better fast
The plutes have been telling us for
two years that prosperity was only
thirty days ahead of us; but 1t seems
that we do not make much progress
catching up with 1t. Thirty days, yes,
that's what they said two years ago;
and now they say, only wait thirty
days longer"
I know 1t is very discouraging, but
what are you going to do about 1t?
What Is going to be the outcome =?
What will It result in? How much
longer will the people be put off with
this thirty-day promise7 How many
people in this little town (and I know
1t Is worse In larger places) will say,
Il must have help; have not had a
bite in my house to eat for two days,
and ! can not get a thing to do
Many people would surely have died
for want of food If it had not been
for charity. But already charity is
beginning to sway, and groan under
its awful burden.
Now what are you going to do
VIII some one answer? Are you going
to submit yourselves and family to be
starved to death? Are you going to be
, cowed like a whipped dog, or will yor
raise your head like men and womer
: and make one awful struggle for life
and freedom?
, ] know they are promising us ev
, erything, If we will only wait thirt,
. days. But let me tell you something
. | know this has been hard winter
r ! know when spring comes It will re
l lieve the situation, to a certain extent
? but next winter will be so hard tina
e it will make us think we had prosper
e ity this winter And II the working
class do not get together and chang
this system,-for they are the onl
power on earth that can bring abou
change,--the death rate from starvs
ton will grow until it will equal tina
caused by the European war.
Now what are we going to do abou
it? What is the use of trying the r.
publicans again, they can not do an.
thing for us. There is only one rem
edy, and that is for the working elias
!. to unite, and work together as one g

Syracuse, n. Y.-Theodore Roose-
yelt admitted under cross-examination
Monday in the suit for alleged libel
which William Barnes has brought
against him that while governor he
had freely consulted the Boss" of
the Republican party in New York
state in reference to the appointment
OF officials in the state government,
and various legislative and political
matters. The "Eoas' named was
Thomas c, Platt, who at that time
represented New York in the United
States Senate.
The former President said he took
the advice of the senator In many
matters, among them appointing a
Democrat to the office of tax commits
sioner. to please Grady" whom the
Colonel described as a lieutenant
boss of Richard Croker, then leader
OF Tammany hall.
The testimony resulted from ques-
tions asked after letters of a series
that passed between Roosevelt and
Platt had been read to the jury.
In one letter Col. Roosevelt asked
the senator's advice about making
speeches. in another Senator Platt
told the colonel he had received a
copy OF bill introduced by Grady. in
which the senator said he considered
1t inadyisable to give Tammany from
S3,0O0.000 to $l2.0o0,000 on an appro-
priation to expend upon the water
front OF New York as lit would be
simply putting an unnecessary club in
the hands OF those people, with which
knock our brains out"
And. in the last letter read, which
was dated in 1901. Col. Roosevelt told
the senator that he did not want to
be vice president of the United States.

could do anything. but he would like
to be governor of New York for an
