staged here and are not attending
in the numbers the entertainments
deserve. This being the first ever
attempted in Ely, many do not
know what chatauqua is and are
under the impression that it is some
kind of a religious revival.
Monday evening in addition to
the Mcdowell Playsingers, which
were very fine, c. E. Booth gave a
very entertaining lecture on the
subject, The Boy and His Daddy"
Tuesday afternoon and evening the
Parsonians held the boards in a
musical program and Tuesday
afternoon DR.. Harry Dieman
delivered an address on The
Basis of American Civilization"
Wednesday fine dramatic enter
tainment was presented by the
Chatauqua Players. Yesterday
Nine. fBodinhoff, a grand opera
star assisted a capable company in
the presentation of scenes from
grand operas. This afternoon and
evening the Jalma Ensemble of
fifteen musical artists will give the
final entertainments. This COM
pany is recognized as one of the
leading musical organizations of
the country and you should not
miss hearing them. In addition,
DR.. Willoughby will deliver a
lecture this afternoon.
1t is to be hoped that the people
will become somewhat acquainted
with chatauqua in this city and
that next year we may have a
successful meeting earlier in the
season.

Section 80 WaIkout

A walkout of the trammers and
surface laborers at the Section 80
mine took place Thursday of last
week and this crippled the other
works to the extent of a shut
down. Many of the men left for
other parts while others returned
to their work and at this hour the
mine is again being operated. Sew
eral deputy sheriffs are on the
ground and all wishing to work
are being put back.
The strike is the outcome of the
agitation of the red flag" bunch
at Winton who have been working
all summer to this end and is not
meeting with the anticipated sue
cess. The management of the
mine is confident that full crew
will be put to work in a few days.

Hughes has been finding fault
with the administration of Presi-
dent Wilson who is again a candi-
date and the press calls Hughes a
'knocker." Why should they
feel so bad? The old saying is
that every knock is a boost. The
part that hurts however, is that
Hughes has been telling the truth
and the Encouragement of the
affairs of the nation under the
Democratic policy is patent to the
most casual observer.

AND now comes the strikers OF
the Mesaba range asking for char
ity from the charitable organiza-
tons of the range cities to keep
their families and themselves from
starving. The I. w. w. has
miserably failed to live up to its
promises and while the leaders are
waxing fat on the money collected
the laborer gets nothing and is
forced to ask for charity. A man
who does not work, should not
eat" says the I. w. w. and the
truth of this is being forcibly driv-
en- home.

COMMENTING on the dethrone-
ment of King Bunk in politics, the
Grand Rapids News remarks that
no matter where the political
speaker goes nowadays, he faces a
show-me audience. His audience
does not take what he says as
granted. Intelligence has worked
itself into the most remote localities.
When the speaker goes to a cross
roads settlement, he finds that the
mail, the telegraph and the news
papers and magazines have antici-
pated him. He cannot success
fully tell the audience that the
moon is made of green cheese.
There was a day when this was
not the case. Iu the olden days
the people derived most of their
intelligence from these platform
orators. They listened to the
preachers and the politicians and
in that manner gained their in
formation of state and national, as
we'll as sociological and religious,
conditions.
knowledge is power and the
people of the United States, even
in the remotest settlements. have
been given power by the know
ledge they have gained from
periodicals and other adjuncts of
an advancing civilization. The
man who arises to harangue All
audience on any subject nowadays
finds many men in the audience
who can ask him embarrassing
questions. These men are no
longer willing to take the word of
the man from the outside world.
The light has been spread, and it
takes strong argument nowadays
to move an audience.
It is not lack of patriotism or
indifference to national ideas which
causes the enthusiasm of audiences
to lag. 1t is knowledge. The
people have telephones, telegraph
stations, mail, newspapers, maya
zines, talking machines, motor
cars, improvement leagues, debat
ing societies and Libraries. 1t
takes we'll equipped man to make
an impression on them, or to
arouse their enthusiasm over any
project which may be the slightest
bit in doubt. The politicians
complain of lack of enthusiasm.
There will be no lack of it on
election day. The thinking people
will speak.
Political revivalists are just
beginning to find out that the old
stuff doesn't go any more. +"

THE grand jury at Virginia has
returned indictments for murder
against seven, growing out of the
Myron and Ladvalla shooting at
Biwabik and the Alar shooting at
Virginia. Among the seven is
Sam Scarlet, Tresca and several
others of the I. w. w. leaders.
Now comes Haywood the boss
anarchist of the bunch and says
the labor of the country will be
tied up in a strike out of sympathy
for those indicted. We think
Haywood is talking through his
hat.

In Houghton, Mich, recently a
man was arrested and sentenced to
Jail for breaking bottles on a road.
This is the proper caper. Broken

the occupants.
