ORGANIZED LABOR AND THE
SALOONS.

R11AOO4SSs
Charles Stelzle, one of the fore
most thinkers and sociologists of
this country, champion of the
cause of organized labor and
powerful advocate of the reforms
for which the wage earners are
fighting, has contributed a con-
vincing article to the public prints
on the subject "Why Organized La
Dor Should Fight the Saloons" Mr..
Stelzle visited Paragould two years
ago and delivered an excellent ad-
dress to the laboring men of this
city. Because of his strong per-
sonality, his evident sincerity, his
great opportunities to study the sa-
loon question in it's relation 10 the
laboring man, his views on this i'm
portant question carry much weight.
He says:
THE way to determine whether
or not organized labor can afford
to stand for the saloon is to find
out what organized labor itself
stands for, and then see, how the
saloon comes up to it's standards.
"Organized labor believes in bet
ter Jobs for workingmen.
1.-The saloon and it's influence
takes away a mans job.
"Organized labor stands for
greater efficiency. 1t frequently
becomes responsible for lectures on
subjects dealing with greater eff
cheney for individual workers. La
Dor journals print courses of study
in technical subjects dealing with
the trades, so that readers may be-
come better workmen.
"The saloon makes workingmen
less skillful and drives them to low
er grades of employment.
organized labor agitates for
higher wages.
"The saloon and it's influences
tends to lower wages. There never
yet was a saloon that helped
increase his pay be
cause that wcrkingman patronized
the saloon.
"Organized labor is fighting to
keep children out of the factory
and in the schools. The National
child labor committee declares that
no organization is doing more in
this respect than is the trades I'M
ion.
THE saloon, because of it's in
fluence upon fathers and the nat
ural supporters of children, sends
children into the factory at an
early age. 1t deprives them of the
best things in life. They are for
ever robbed of the rightful heritage
of the child.
"Organized labor stands for the
dignity and elevation of woman
kind. 1t demands equal pay to
men and women for equal work. 1t
seeks to give woman her rightful
place in society.
1.-The saloon has a tendency to
degrade womanhood, and frequently
sends women down to the gutter.
"Organized labor is fighting for
the preservation of the home.
There is no agency that is do
ing more to destroy the home than
the saloon. 1t is the chief con-
tributing causes of poverty 1t does
more to bring about unemployment
than any other single factor, The
saloon disintegrates the home, scat
ters its members, and leaves it but
a memory.
1.-THE interests of the saloon are
always opposed to the interests of

DEFER APPO|NT|VE
EXCISE BID. ACTION
Some Aldermen Favor Adop-
ton, but They Appear to be
in the Minority.

A proposed ordinance to provide
for an oppointive Board of Excise
Commissioners in this city was laid
aside at a committee session of
members of the Board of Aldermen
prior to their adjourned meeting at
city hall last night. There were
some who favored its adoption, but
they were in the minority, and the
others voiced strong sentiments
against such legislation. The propo-
sition was dropped for an indefinite
period and it appears that it will not
be taken up this year.
1t appears that at least four out of
the seven city fathers were opposed
to the introduction of the ordinance
in question last night. The two Re-
publican members are known to
have been on the side of the opposi-
ton. Someone had the ordinance
prepared with the intention of having
| it introduced last night.
Adoption of Chapter 1O7.
The ordinance would provide for
the adoption of Chapter 107 of the
laws of 1901. 1t provides that q
council in a town or city, excepting
that of the first class, may adopt the
law in question and that within ten
! days thereafter notice accordingly
shall be served upon the judge of the
court of common pleas of county,
and he shall appoint three members
of the city's excise department They
shall serve for three years.
The principal objection raised by
opponents of the act last night was
that it would remove power from the
voters and would aid in increasing
the number of appointive offices to
an Objectionable extent, thereby get
ting away from genuine democratie
government. Argument advanced
! showed that opponents felt as though
too much power would be vested in
one man if judge were permitted to
name excise boards.

THREE FINE SKETCHES ON
BILL Ar THE MAJESTIC

With three sketches leading the
bill the Majestic theatre presents a
program to its patrons that is really
it For anyone that wants good
laugh, the slfctch which Miss Beat
RICE .dofgan presents as "Flossie OF
the 5 and 10 Store" will DO them
good. Mixed in the comedy there is
a lot of truth that shows how the
care free and outwardly careless girl
often has a big heart for the one that
is in trouble. The Blackmailers,
given by the Sue Higgins portrays
dramatically the fights of a politi-
clan to be straight and get out of
the power of a political boss who trys
every available method to blacken
his name. The play is well acted by
all the members of the company.
Lois Clark and Company give a
novelty sketch, in which there are
nine actors, showing some juvenile
talent. Dan Delmar won much ap-
plause by his limitations of feminine
singing, a man and a woman singing
duet, ending the singing part of his
act with a yoddling song He was
an actual rapid fire gun when it
came to telling jokes, not giving the
audience time to fully recover from
one before he had another on its
way.
The International Four gave sew
eral classical songs, musical selec-
tions and medleys of the latest musi-
cal hits. All these were well re-
ceived by the audience. Lovers of
moving pictures and comedy are
waiting for tomorrow when they can
see Weber and Fields in their film
feature The Delicatessen Shop"
