A REPUBLICAN, TRICK.

Friends of the child labor bill in con-
gress are highly fncensed by the action
of Senator Borah in attaching the i'm
migration bill as a rider to the Heating
Owen bill This, they believe, Will Sc
riousIy jeopardize the passage of the
child labor bill as the president will
probably veto it in that form The i'm
migration bill has no possible relation
to the child labor bill and this move
by the republicans looks to the friends
of the children like a mere political
trick for the purpose of putting the
president in a hole
At the Office of. the National Child
Labor committee the general secretary,
Owen r. LOvejoy, said: Senator Borah
has always been a good friend of child
labor reform and we hope to induce
him to save himself and his party the
embarrassment OF being spOnsible for
the defeat of the measure. The demo-
Gratis had wisely decided to steam
roller the half-doZen reactionaries who
have been standing in the way and
until this immigration rider was lOai-
ed on, we were sure of victory. We
have Just sent Senator Borah the fol-
lowing telegram:
We earnestly urge you to with
draw immigration rider from our bill.
Many republicans here believe your
party now loses all advantage it has
gained by forcing vote at this session.
American children have already borne
every conceivable burden. Why load
the immigrants on to their backs?

and he was not badly bruised, but
from the hour of that accident he be-
gan to stammer. The doctors said he
had received a nervous shock and that
IL he ever recovered from it it would
be from another nervous shock.
At the age OF eighteen he went to
work for and resided in the family OF
an uncle who lived on a farm. There
were only four in the family, and the
stammering would not be noticed nor
criticised
Miss Bessie Williams, a maid OF If
teen years, climbed an apple tree one
day in her fathers back yard. Bes-
sic had attained the height OF a third
branch when her hold gave way and
she fell down with kerplunk. After
she had been revived and found very
much alive 1t was noticed that she
stammered.
After two or three years, I'm which
the girls ailment got no better, she
was sent to live for awhile with her
aunt in the country and was told to
hope for a shock. 1t transptEed,
strangely enough, that the two STAN

acquaintance.
Did James Brice and Bessie Williams
fall in love? For sure they did.

THE MODERATE DRINKER.

Several weeks ago we so far forgot
our good manners as to explode abSut
a moderate drinker whose wife had
sent a pitiful appeal ffor advice TO
this department Yes we spoke very
disparagingly about the moderate
drinker-so much so that the editors
found a dash necessary between the
letters and in our explosion.
Now some of our good friends are
or were-moderate drinkers. No, we
mean they were our good friends;
most of them still continue to shorten
their allotment of years moderately.
So the the only apparent result of the
explosion was a shower of protests.
Out of the shower one latter, from a
school principal, is worth quoting:
Il was brought up in a home where
liquor was always on the sideboard for
any member of the family. l never
knew of any of us taking a drink 10
forget it | know my dear sir, that
alcohol is too often a curse and often
leads TO sexual excuses and so on. But
l think your statement is too sweeping
and when you place the whole array of
moderate drinkers in the class of
selfish towards who are prone 10 try
to eyade the trials and troubles of life
and their just responsibilities. How
ever, let us shake hands. Perhaps we
have different interpretations of the
moderate drinker l am glad to have
made your acquaintance, if only by
correspondence"
A good many other letters protested
in the same logical way. This one is
sort of a composite of them all. We
therefore wish TO revise our previous
opinion. Now we say:
D the moderate drinker, any
Il fe- Iv.Yx l. -

logical cuss in the world. For he ad-
mits that alcohol is a treacherous

tally, yet he drinks il. Now, what
sort of logic can lead a man to drink
an unnecessary, luxurious, expensive
beverage which he knows may do ir-
reparable harm, not only TO himself
but 10 his innocent wife and children
Well tell you just what sort of a logic
it is: the drinker is hypnotized with
egotism. He imagines himself above

GOLF AND INSANITY.

A golf course for the insane at the
Elgin hospital has been opened and
DR.. Gahagan, superintendent of the
institution believes it will do much
toward curing patients. When he first
announced, some time ago, that he in

that didn't worry the superintendent.
knowing something about the insane,
he ignored the ridicule of those who
knew nothing about them.
"One of our big tasks is to get the
patients to think about something be-
sides their troubles" he said. 1T was
my theory that golf would solve the
problem"
And he is convinced now that his
theory is correct. In their eagerness
to make a good score, the insane for
get their manias, shake off their pet
illusions and become more like human
beings. If it does not effect cures it
Will at least better the condition Of the
inmates.
If golf is a good thing to cure in
sanity, surely it is better as a proven
tive, for prevention is always easier
than cure. Rock Island ought to have
a public golf course and one not so
far away that the average citizen can
not visit it once or more during the
week and that without being forced to
pISchase an automobile for the pur-
pose. There are a number of spots
near the city that would make ideal
sites for links.
