SAVED BY A HYMN.
Without Knowing II the Sentry Dis
armed His Opponents.

In his book "Why Men Pray" Or.
Charles Lewis Slottery retells one OF
Henry Drummonds old stories to isus-
trate his point that prayer produces a
sense of human fellowship.
zone Sunday night on an ocean
steamer a man spoke OF a hymn which
had just been sung as having for him
peculiarly sacred associations. He was
in the Confederate army in the Amer
ican war between the states and was
ordered at one time to lonely sentry
duty. AS the night wore on he felt
his danger, and to keep up his courage
he began to sing
Jesus, lover of my soul,
and after uttering the great prayer Of
this hymn he was comforted and felt
quite safe.
"a strange expression came over the
face of n fellow passenger on tho
ship. T. he said, was I'm the UniOr
army that night and had been sent out
with a party of scouts. We saw n sol
itary sentry, and my men bad thcit
rifles leveled TO fire, but just then We
heard the clear notes ringing ont Ia
the stiffness
Cover my defenseless head
With the shadow of thy wing
and said: Boys, lower your titeS,

We CAN NOT help to again men
tion that the paper makers are still
OF that old ancient way of doing
things. Ancient as far as wages
are concerned and a back number
when il comes to working hours
that are helpful, healthful ard bene-
fetal to a working man and his
family. Hamilton is one spot on
the industrial map where paper
makers work eleven and thirteen
hours per day. They go to the
mills early and they come home
late, the wages are a little more
than the average laborer would
make, but the hours are something
staggering and the men themselves
acknowledge that they have very
little time to think about the pi,iful
ordeal they are going through.
But it is no fault of anyone but the
paper makers themselves. 1t is
they alone who are responsible for
the conditions that ttey are work
ihg under, and they alone who are
keeping wages down by working
those eleven and thirteen hours.
We find that the paper makers are

physical makeup and that is

that as precaution the Deputy Marshall

immigration Bill Pending In
House.

Washington, Feb. 18-The Bur
nett immigration bill which his
been reported favorably by the
house committee on immigration,
is now pending in the house, and
will be considered within the next
fortnight.
The passage of this bill is not
questioned-the fight is to secure
two thirds vote in the event that
the president again vetoes the
measure, During the last congress
the presidents veto was sustained
by only four votes, and every eff
fort is being made by the trade un-
ionists and other friends of Ameri-
can living standards to defeat the
purpose of cheap labor advocates,
who, under normal conditions, have
made possible two men for every
job in the trustifed industries.
Trade unionists are urged to i'm
press on their senator's and con-
gressmen the necessity for immi-
grafton restriction.
A larger vote than formerly
should be secured, thus making
possible two-thirds vote in the
event of a vote by the president.
Unionists should protest against
compelling workers possessing
American ideals to compete indie
fnitely with the illtterate of south
ern and eastern Europe.

High Wages Check Disease

Washington, Feb. 18-"Pay the
worker more and he will live better
and his family will escape much of
the danger from disease, said Sur
geon General Gorgas, of the Uni
ted States army, in an address to
churchmen in this city.
I'm the treatment OF tropical
diseases he said, poverty must
always be considered az one of the
most important evils to be eradica-
ted. Doubling the wages of work
men in Havana raised them from
their former impetunious state and
enabled them to live mere sanitary
than before"
General Gorgas reviewed the
work OF his Is years spent in the
tropics; told how he and his CO.
workers eradicated the mosquitoes
from the canal zone; and how be-
fore that he had directed the scien.

Havana a place in which TO live
instead of one in which to die.

The boss that held the door shut

that they meant business and he

thing over that they themselves
had not the courage to do, and yet
they call themselves paper makers.
There are some cities that have
passed ordinances and some states
in this country that have passed
laws prohibiting the Italian organ
grinder from working a monkey

we find paper makers in the great

that he would do nothing for the
company as long as the Elk Captain

they got against old Captain that
he must be removed before fnan-
cial assistance Is rendered He's
harmless, he never killed anybody
and up to the mastering out we
don't think any of the soldier boys
in the bunch ever killed any body,
but they have been removed and
thirteen or so have been transferred

Captain Hunter is disliked because
he is not Of the same political smell
that others are and that is the sole
reason he has been mustered out.
If this is true, can't you see how
politics become so unmerciful that
it even goes so far as TO corrupt the
only protection the city had. Ii is
also said that the men who have
been transferred to Eaton are the
neucles for aew company to be
organized here in the near future.
We would suggest that they gather
up the gun toters around the diff
ferent founderies, perhaps they
will make true and loyal soldiers

Child Labor Bill Passed.
House Records Big Vote in
Favor Of Measure.

Washington, Feb. Is. BY a
vote of 337 to 46 the house passed
the Keating- Owen child labor bill
and this measure now goes to the
senate.
The act debars from interstate
commerce the shipment of products
made in whole or in part by chill
dren under ii years in workshops
and factories, and under 16 years
in mines and quarrles.
Practically all opposition cane
from representatives of southern
textils sections. Their arguments
were mainly on two points-uncon-
stitutiopality and interference with
the individual Congressman Aiken
of South Carolina presented the
latter sentiment as follows:
81 cannot lose sight of the fact
any interference with the right of
a parent TO put his child to work
at such age as he may deem wise,
if that labor is necessary for the
support of the family, is in a
measure subversive of the individ-
ual rights of the citizen. We want
no federal agents going through
oar mills and mill villages telling
our people when their children shall
go to work and when they shall
not, and telling our men and women
how many hours they may work
per day and how many not. And
why apply the provisions CT fed
eral act to children of mill opera
tives? Why not the children ef
lawyers, farmers, merchants or
other professions or callings? I
can readily conceive of the en-
ployes in manufacturing plants feel
ing righteous indignation at this
effort of the federal government to
supervise their private affairs.
This line of reasoning had little
effect on the members of the house.
The claim that the act was uucon-
stitutional was answered in this
manner by Congressman Garland,
a member of the labor group:
"I have listened to the discus
sions of this question as to the con
stitutionality of this bill We find
that there are d number of men of
eminer &C in the law have been
quoted as saying this bill is uncon
stitutional. / find there is another
large number who say it is not un-
constitutional. ! am not LAWYER.
As there seems to be a division of
opinion as to its consritutionality,
then, if we are going to err, let Is
err on the side of humanity. Let
US pass the bill. And if some court
declares it unconstitutional let il
do 50, but let US not stand here in
an attitude of fear as TO what the
court will do and refuse to do the
thing that ought to be done.
