PUSH .zELANDIA INQUIRY

Washington, Nov. 12.-Until it is
known whether the American steam
er Zelandia was in harbor at Pro-
greso, Mexico, or upon the high seas,
when searched by British warship's
crew, state department officials said
it was impossible to decide if pro-
test will be made to England.
The British government has advis-
ed the state department that its in
formation is that the Zelandia was
outside the three-mile neutral zone
and technically on the high seas. In
formation of the navy department
corroborated the British assertions.
Consul Germon at Progreso reported,
however, that the Zelandia was lin
port."

FATE OF LOEB RULE HANGS
IN THE BALANCE

SOOu.
When young Max Loeb moved to
appeal Jake Loeb's rule which forbid
teachers from joining the Chicago
Teachers Federation, those who
sympathized with the teachers were
not ready.
Eleven votes are necessary to re-
peal the Loeb rule. At present the
teachers can count on nine votes in
their favor, with two doubtful ones,
Harris w. Huehl and Mrs. F. E.
Thornton.
Until these can be lined up with the
teachers union, or some Of those
who voted against the federation be-
fore change face, the motion to wipe
off the Loeb rule will be useless.
The discrimination used by the
council in picking and rejecting
Mayor Thompson's candidates for
the school board gave birth to re-
joicing among the friends of the fed
Grafton.
The Rev. ]. Brushingham, politi-
cian-minister, slated to squeeze out
John Sonsteby, best friend the fed
Grafton had on the board, was side
tracked by the aldermen Monday
night.
A. Sheldon Clark, high-brow big
business man and close friend of |
Thompson, was voted out as a can
didate for the school board. Dr. Pie
trowicz, who lined up with the teach
ers, remained as trustee.
Charles S. Peterson, big printer,
''who found it his moral obligation to
chase the federation from among the
teachers" was turned down by the
council, but, as he was nominated to
succeed himself, he will stay. The
aldermen have stamped him with
their mark of disapproval, however.
John Metz, president of the car
penters' union, who, of course, voted
with the teachers when he was pres

ton and has already started scrap
for the union.
William Rothmann, bitter oppo-
nent of organization among the
teachers, was dropped for Mrs. F. E.
Thornton, mother with two chill
dren in the public schools. She has
not declared herself on the teachers
union squabble. In her the teachers
see sympathizer.
Bill Schlake, head of the Illinois
Brick Co., biggest anti-union brick
company in the state and principal
opponent of the carpenters in the
building trades strike, is gone. And
Harris w. Huehl, who has not come
out for or against the teachers, has
taken his desk in the board rooms.
R. ]. Roulston, second to Roth
mann and consistent in his opposi-
ton to the teachers union, stays
This because VIM. Selig, the moving
picture magnate, admitted he could
not attend the board meetings regu-
larly and withdrew his name.
So the teachers lost two opponents
and kept two. They gained one new
friend and held two old ones. And
there are two members who have not
declared themselves.
The fate of the Loeb rule may be
known within the next two meetings
of the board :

Have you noticed some of the recent
manifestations of capitalism? Let
me enumerate a few.
Pick up a copy of the kept press.
Here is what you get: Dope about
the gadabouts, untruthful advertise

fake issues, bought and paid for
editorials and columns of rot and
bunk and sensations about things we

don't get is honest treatment for So

should like to ask you and the world
what chance these strikers have to
win when allied against them are
the great forces of~the law, namely
our policemen? What right have
they to jeopardize the lives of the
people in Roxbury flats by their pro-
miscuous shooting when they are
supposed to protect life?
don't suppose the situation would
be quite so bad, but men detailed
across the street are the target for
the admiring glances of the ladies to
such an extent that they invite them
into their own homes and feed them
pie and coffee while their own hus-
bands are out laboring under much
the same conditions as the poor men
and women now on strike.
. It seems to me that all this energy
that they are putting forth to pro-
tect strikebreakers could be spent to
better purpose by catching the
thieves and murderers, and last but
not least, by keeping good women
from being molested by the undesir-
able trash that infests this part of

RUNNING THE YOUTH.-A recent
discussion in your columns on the
poolroom evils with which so many
young men become saturated de-
serves to be greatly lauded.
The pool halls of Chicago, it is OBJ
vious, are rendezvous for the young
element, some almost of incubator
age. Their greatest desire is Sue
cessful victory over the much-boasted
playing ability of their fellow COM
rades.
l often wondered as passed by the
door of one of those places if the
young man who frequents them ever
paused for a moment to consider that
every visit he makes there means so
many more heartaches and unalter-
able sorrows brought to life for his
mother. His mother, am sure, stays
at home praying silently that he son
may walk the paths OF life honestly
and bravely.
At this time and under present con-
ditions a young man is easily led
astray and harrassed in his efforts to
make a worthy citizen of himself.
Roads to success are too narrow for
some youths and too often they are
caught in the whirlpool of human de-
ytruction. They are then beyond the
line of future redemption; they suffer
their poor old mothers suffer.
We should also plead with munic-
ipal officials to eradicate poolrooms
and give the doWpfalleR bigger

MANY MATTERS 10COME
BEFORE LEGISLATURE

St. Paul, Feb. 18.-With almost
seven weeks of the session of the
Minnesota legislative body completed,
only a few really important things
have been done. .~>
The passage of bill permitting
the farmers of Northern Minnesota
to borrow money on their improved
farm lands at three per cent inter-
est, the money to be taken from the
state school funds, is probably the
most important bill that has passed
both houses. OF bills having passed
only one house, county option is
doubtless the biggest.
Among the things yet to be thresh-
ed out are, the division of st. Louis
county; possible legislation on the
matter of the now famous Ruggles
timber of Beltrami county; several
constitutional amendments; the re-
organization of the state government
which will include a bill providing
for the reduction Of the state legis-
lature to only one house; reor-
ganization of the educational sys-
TEN; telephone and public utilities
Legislation; legislation affecting
banks, insurance companies and pub
lie institution.

Governors E. w. Major of Missouri
and Edward F. Dunno of Illinois and

Minnesota sent invitations to 1900
persons including the governors of
states on the three rivers, and repre-

The invitations recite the need for
