dividing line they are met by a we'll
fed, slick-looking guy, who shouts at
the top of his voice: "Come on, fell
lars, right this way for paradise, the
man who wrote Paradise Lost was
blind and didn't know what he was
doing-Tm the gink that put the dice
in paradise on" The way he
took them across the street would
have made the Pied Piper of Hamlin
town look like selling platter in a
bunch of derby winners. He led them
to a stately building, where they en-
tered elevators and were whisked to
the top and ushered into a room vi
brant with the sounds of a thousand
brass instruments-not made of the
metal used in angels trumpets, but
real telegraph instruments. One big
fellow in a striped suit whirled on the
"Gink" who had enticed them in and
exclaimed: "Whaddayamean, para
dise!-this is hell. I've heard of it
before"
What's the matter with the West
ern Union? Amt Jones School of
Telegraphy catching any more suck
ers? They have to impose on a lot
of convicts that are powerless to
keep away from it and force it on
them. It's a fact they have dis
charged hundreds of operators in the
past year on account of no work for
them. It's a fact that old timers
over at the w. U. have been making
less than half time all winter. It's
fact they maintain blacklist and dis
charge operators on suspicion of be-
longing to the Commercial Telegra-
piers union. They break up homes,
drive men to suicide, drive them from
their native land and in many other
ways make life miserable for their
employees.

WANTS THE REASoN.-I would

like to know why they single out the
United Charities and make it an OBJ
ject of attack. Is it not as well, if
not better, conducted than any other
private or parochial institution, hos
pital or school? All of them are con-
Quoted for profit. Every dollar con-
tributed to such propaganda is a dol
lar for the destruction of public in
stitutions.
Our public schools, hospitals or
other institution properly conducted
are worth 100 private monopolies.
One aged or mothers pension is
worth 100 charitable institutions.
Uncle Sam stepped in and estab-
lished one system Of postoffices and
forbids anybody to start a rival to it.
Then is it not just as essential that
Uncle Sam should step in an destab-
lish a system Of public institutions?

RAPS JUSTICE

RAPS JUSTlCE.-I would say JUS
tice as handed down by some of our
judges and juries, for instance, after
the supreme court decides that pick
citing is lawful there are judges who
can be found that will issue injunc-
tions against it. Then again that
Priest Mullen verdict, in which the
jury said: I'VE, the jury, find the de-
fendant, John Mullen, committed the
act charged in the Indictment, but at
the time of the commission of said
act he was an insane person and
since the commission of said act has
permanently and entirely recovered
from said lunacy or insanity"
What right had the jury to pass on
the saneness of the defendant That
was the most foolish verdict l ever
heard. If he had been a poor man
no such verdict would have been
given. So 1 say again, justice as
handed down by some of our judges
