FUGITIVE.
I will forget the things that sting:
The flashing look, the barbed word.
I know the very hands that fling
The stones at me had never stirred
To anger but for their own scars.
They've suffered so, that's why they

For, wounded, might strike in turnl
So, none shall hurt me. Far and free
Where my heart flies no one shall learn

Eagle River review. [volume] (Eagle River, Wis.) 1890-1927, 1916-06-23

Here is young woman, one
of the poor aristocrats, deIiber-
ateIy setting forth to capture
rich husband. Perhaps Mary
will honestly fall in love with
Jim Sheridan and be happy in
her marriage. Do you think she

Does it seem to you that
Edith Sheridan has enough fine
stuff in her soul to write such
verse-even though It was writ
ten when she was seventeen
and now she's past twenty and
rather hard?

BY FRANK 6. NENKE.

Aviation is the greatest sport IN the
world" asserted frank Coiiyn, who
has been birding" 1t Tor nigh onto
seven years
"How many flights have YOU made
"Oh. about 1900; perhaps a few
more" replied the veteran bird man
1--WE travelled something like $1,000
miles IN the air and nothing ever has
given me the same pleasure, the same
marvellous sense OF exhilration as
has flying 1t is wonderful
Most folks have the idea that avl1t-
ing is dangerous II isn't half so much
so as automob,ling The air Is far
safer than the roads I've had several
narrow escapes in flying That was
during the carly days OF the sport when
the machines wepc somewhat imperfect
I've never got a scratch as the result
Of flying accident, but I've been IN
an automobile smash up and had a
dozen narrow SQueakS in them An
airShip for mine
Weren't YOU ever afflicted with dil-
lincSS while in the air
Never. Such feeling is unknown
after a person sails away from the
earth. Some think that If they were
in an airship they would get a wild
impulse to Jump, or would become
nauseated But nothing like that hap
pens. In an airship one has feeling
of perfect security
DIZZINESS Unknown in Air.
"Oitcntimes people have said to me
that they would like to take ride
but they fear they will 6e subject to
the same dizzy spells that come to them
when they look down from some high
place. am afflicted the same way
on earth II look down to the ground
from a height no greater than three
stories. hardly can control the crazy
impulse to Jump, But in the air its
totally different
"Thc terrible cold is tho only real
discomfort that one suffers while in
the air The higher up you 60 the
colder it gets Also it becomes wndcr
Up there nothing breaks the sweep OF
the wind, like on earth II it is blow,

earth it probably is sweeping at sixty
miles or more an hour up high

We asked
Unless the engine cNplodc,, he /,

doesn't shoot down Just as soon as the
motor halts 1t remains ailoat, straight

little time; certainly long enough for

Airships Much Safer Now.
Coiiyn declared that the development

has been as great as the changes made
in automobiles in the last ten years.

soon have quantities of manufactures,
produced at low cost and as we shall
have the money they will want to sell
here. Should the gates be open they
would improve the opportunity and food
us with their products.
In labor's interests, therefore. the
gates should be well guarded. We
should have a tariff considerate at all
points Of the difference in cost of pro-
duction between home and abroad.
American labor should not only be kept
employed. but employed at wages recog-
nizing and supporting the American
standards of living.
A tariff for revenue only is not the
poor mans tariff. 1t carries some in
cidental protection, but what the poor
man needs is tariff which carries pro-
lection per Sc; which is constructed to
give the home producer the preference
in the home markets. Hence, when the
campaign gets under full Roadway, those
speakers who give fullest time to the
tariff will draw audiences composed in
liberal measure of men deeply con-
cerned about wages as well as other
questions of importance to those who
work with their hands.

been made by Congress not only for
his widow, but for all others who are
dependent upon the fuctuating and
usually inadequate pension fund. But Ip-
polito's partial recovery seemed to check
practical sympathy to the point of non
action, and the matter has Jagged, until
now, as DR.. Walter points out in his
letter, the man is dropped from the
pay rolls pending his full recovery Of
health. He is not retired and cannot
draw pension. He is alive and there
fore his wife cannot be placed on the
pension roll. This in itself is a pre-
posterous anomaly. There should be
some method by which men injured in
the line of duty may be maintained on
full pay so long as there is a prospect
of ultimate recovery or placed upon a
dependable pension roll if they prove
to be permanently disabled.

Radicalism and Government.

William Allen White is among those
bull moosers who are inconsolable at the
Chicago outcome. He describes himself
as one of those earnest radicals who
saw in the progressive party the or
ganization of definitely radical party"
and says that those radicals stand on a
lonely and rather dreary shore. looking
at the ebb-tid and the wreck
A sad picture. as Mr.. White sees it.
But he should cheer up. The situation
is not as he imagines.
The fact is that "a definitely radical
party" even if successful at the polls.
would not long remain definitely radi-
cal Office would Conservative it, so to
say. This is not a country of radicals,
by radicals. for radicals. On the con-
trary, its size and progress testify to
the dominant quality of the people.
That quality is conservatism.
Radicalism may thunder in the index.
1t has several times done so. 1t did so
in the democratic campaign of 1892 on
the tariff question, when a tariff for
revenue only was promised. But the
promise was not redeemed. The Cor
man Wilson law was a hugger mugger
affair. and on that account failed.
Radiealism marked the Bryan appeal
in 1896, but the country would not have
it. But if Mr.. Bryan had been elected.
the ffty-cent dollar promised would not
have been issued He and his friends
in office would have been conquered by
conservatism. In the face of certain
financial wreck for the country they
would have drawn back.
Had the bull moosers won in 1912 it
is anything but likely that their pro-
gram of social justice" would have
been carried out. Charged with the re-
sponsibilities of office. they would have
recast and modified the more important
oil their propositions. 1t is the safest
of bets that the recall of judges and
judicial decisions would if offered have
been overwhelmingly defeated.
Radicals. like the poor. we have at
ways with US. They are found in all
parties. Some are able and interesting
men. and, in way, perform good serv-
ice. But they are never in the majority.
They have never controlled a national
administration, and never will. We have
too much at stake to surrender the di
rection of affairs to extremists, however
estimable they may be as men and
citizens and persuasive in the presenta-
ton of their policies. What Mr.. White
deplores the loss of met a natural and
deserved fate.

Labor and the Campaign.

Representatives of organized labor at
tended both the republican and the
democratic national conventions, and
submitted for platform recognition
labor's further desires in the matter of
national legislation. Both conventions
paid heed. But there is some dispute
now as TO which convention showed the
greater sympathy with labor, and hence
IS 10 what labor's response is likely to
be in November
Il has been demonstrated time and
again that no man or set of men car
rics what is called the labor vote in his
rocket IT is not deliverable in blocks
10 either party. II is divided, as it
loud be. Its salvation lies In doing its
own thinking, and its own voting. Its
relfare would be injured if it refused
n campaign years to take into consid-
ration the general welfare Of the coun-
try. Labor cannot prosper unless the
r7un'ry does; and prosperity at the e1-
pcnse or labor could not last, and would
Ge expensive TO the public while it did
asst
As at all times, labor is now greatly
interested in the tariff. Protection ap-
piies TO the American wage scales as to
american production. Both should be
sept high. Neither should be at the
merey Of the foreigner 1t is quite as
important that the American wage
- that the American capitalist earn
dividends
This year the tariff takes on a new
