WHAT DUNN THINKS. kindly
allow me to try and wake up Brother
Wells, author of article, Newspaper
Liars. Hull House Riot. Did the
trust press ever bait their hook with
the truth to catch suckers. Brother
Wells swallowed bait, hook and all
when he so innocently condemned
the starving unemployed for refusing
to take dose Of Aunt James sooth-
ing salVe, a Well-knoWn remedy, es-
peciaIly prepared, under the employ
ers' pure food act, by Big Business,
with directions as follows: Take one
dose Just before marching, causing
confidence, rest and, slumber, With
out a parade or food until Lincoln's
birthday Then you viii wake up
cured Of the desire to work" The
small dose administered by Jane ADJ
dams last Sunday has killed the un-
employed movement, and thousands
of innocent readers, like Brother
Wells, join the mOurners with Jane

UNEARNED INCREMENT.-It may
be of interest to sum up some Of the
effects of our present system of per
hitting private absorption and spec
ulation in uneaTned increment or
ground values.
The census of 1910 shows an in
crease Of 4 per cent in the cultivated
land area while the population in
creased, 81 per cent and land values
ia per cent. The net result of all
this is congestion or population, due
to the fact that the area of used
land does not keep pace with the in
crease in the number of human be-
ings.
A II per cent increase in the price
of staple foods and higher rents, the
general result of which is our present
business depression, it is obvious that
many lines of business must suffer
when the purchasing power of the
general public is curtailed by Excess
sively high prices for rents and food.

already registered, whereas, out Of
80, 900 qualified male voters in the

every day that women have no civic

This statement was made by Miss
Mary O'Conor Higgins. of Omaha,

q meeting of the Women's Homestead
Association In Boston recently de-
manded that girl stenographers be
kept in wire cages while at work to
keep them from flirting with their

that practically at the same time Elihu

suffrage movement was held last night
at the corner of Fifth and Broad

ing was Miss Elsie Hill, OF Connect

Miss Hill took strong issue with the
statement that the proposed amend

that 1t in no wise deferred the States
from setting up and classification or
qualification for voters. merely max
ing 1t impossible In the future for any
state to discriminate against any of
Its citizens because OF sex. She de-
,clared that women merely wanted the
same rights which are now conferred
on foreign males coming to America.
Miss Hill is an attractive and con-
lvincing speaker, and held her audi
ence well IN hand.
