FREE SPEECH ISSUE.
(New York Times.)


 In the state Washington there is probably def mite knowledge the that brought about the sangunary little battle at Everett Sunday but for the rest of the country with the shock of surprise and even only know that some men on steamer and some others a wharf used each other in an encounter that looks alarmingly like civil war
 That the l. w. w. ranged on one side, and that posse led by sheriff had been gathered to drive the in vaders away indicates who fought for and who against law and order but has happened often when the w w was concerned denial of free speech is charged and none is quite happy when that accusation is made by men willing risk their lives in vndication of their grievance.
 Jneasiness thus caused would be greater however if experience taught what it is that the organization in question wants be free to say and do In civilized community of course absolute freedom of speech is as inconceivabe as is absolute freedom of religion or ot anything Only alone an island that nobody else cares to visit either talk act exactly as he peases As soon he has companion, the mere fact that both cannot sit the time onthe stone necessities compromises and restrictions and all know what restraints must put tongues if life is to be anything except constant
 The l. w. w. conception of liberty does not work ill practice since makes allowance for the feelings and preferences, the rights and privileges, of neghbors

WHERE ARE THEY?

Since last September, we have heard the re port that the government was to have revenue cutters in these waters to protect the fishermen and others who are obliged to face the storms that prevail during the winter months. Has any body seen anything like government patrol boat hereabouts? It may be that the department IS waiting until a dozen or more have been lost be- fore it stirs. This is where an ounce of proven tion is worth pound of cure.

SOMETHING IS GOING TO HAPPEN.

Yesterday telegraphic news told us that a grand jury in county of one of the Middle We5o states was investigating the report that "one thousand carloads of potatoes were being held up for higher prices' A few days ago thous and upon thousands cases of eggs were discover ed in cold storage in Chicago and elsewhere. Flour is being held up by spectators; sugar meat shoes and everything that the working class of people use, and cannot get along without, is be- ing boosted up beyond their reach. Really is the world getting mad? It looks that way.
 Here we have men who are trying to starve the people in order to squeeze few dollars out of them. These vicious hOldups can only lead to starvation, either way. is a case of "starve or pay the price" But what about the morrow? The people may have the price today, but unless they get an increase in wages, they cannot pay the price tomorrow So either way, it is starVe. But before the people give up the ghost they are going to fight. This fight may be directed against their employers; or the government; but fight they shall, unless the government steps in and regulates the price of commodities.
 A few days ago, the coal miners of Wales went on a strike for higher wages. Previously, the government prohibited the operators of the mines to increase the price of their product With an increase in wages, they could not produce at profit. They closed down their mines. The government stepped in and increased the wages but permitted the operators to increase the price of coal Now, in this case, the wage earners were benefited but at the expense of the consum- CTS. If the consumers cannot pay the increase, what then? The trouble with most of the gOV- ernments is that they regulate matters only in spots The whole machinery seems to be out of gear. However there is something wrong some where. Or it may be that the world is getting mad. Be that as it may, something is going to happen, because we have reached a point where "you put your hand in my pocket and I'll put mine in yours" does not obtain; the stronger does both.

And ere her yarn had been quite spun,
Another's theories were begun
She had one.

But thus and so she thought she'd do
She had two
The next one added, "Let me see;
These things work out differently
She had three,
The fifth drew On her wisdom store
And said, ara have to think it Ger"
She had four.
And then one sighed, 81 don't contrive
Fixed rules for boys, they're too alive"
She had five"

She had six.
And one declared, There's no rule

But do your best and trust to heav'n."
She had seven.

ABRUPTLY CHANGED His MIND
Jersey City Man Had Cause 10 Recon.
slider the ACCESSIBILITY of Cutting
Up State of Texas.

We had been talking for half an
hour or so on the subject of dividing
Texas into four states, and the mar
from Jersey City, who had a front seat
in the stage, insisted that the matter
ought to come up for congressional &C
ton. We finally drew up at a way sta
ton to change horses, and as we got
down to stretch our legs the one ma
tive Texan among the eight passengers
pulled out bowie knife and confront
ed the Jersey man with:
so you reckon that there's huff
of Texas to make four states?"
"It's-its a very large state" re-
piled the man, looking with anxiety
at the knife.
Exactly. You are also a very large
man"
Yes"
do you reckon there's nuff of you
to make four men?"
We'll, hardly"
IF should even slice off your ears

Voices Of the Sea.

In "The Log Of the Shark" by Char
milan Kittredge London, is this bit of
sea description;
"The sea is not lovable monster
And monster it is. 1t is beautiful. the
sea- always beautiful on one way or
another, but it is cruel and unmind-
full Of the life that is in it and upon
it. 1t was cruel last evening in the
lurid low sunset that made ii glow,
duly, to the cold, mocking, ragged
moonrise that made it look like death.
The waves positively beckoned when
they rose and pitched toward our boat
iaboring in the trough. And all the
long night it seemed to me that /
heard voices through the planking,
talking. talking, endlessly, monoton-
ously, ENORMOUSLY, and | couldn {
make out whether it was the ocean
calling from the outside or the ship
herself muttering gropingly, finding
herself. If the voices are of the ship
they Will soon cease, for she must find
herself But If they are the voices
Of the sea they must be sad sirens
that cry. restless, questioning, unsatls
fed--quaint homeless little sirens"

VALUABLE SOAP BERRY TREE
Qualities, Besides Its Worth as
a Cleanser of the Skin.

The jaboncellO, or soap berry tree
(Sapindus saponara), grows in the
humid parts of western Ecuador. 1t
attains a height of about fifty feet
and has wide-spreading branches and
immense quantities of fruit of the size
and shape of cherries.
The nearly transparent yellowish
skin and pulp surrounding the round
black seeds are so saponaceous as to
be used instead of soap by many peo-
pie of Ecuador, being equivalent to
more than fifty times their weight OF
that material.
The hard, polished seeds have been
used extensively in Spain and England
for waistcoat buttons, for they are
very durable and seldom break. They
are used also as beads.
Although considerable quantities of
the berry are utilized locally, tons OF
them rot on the ground every year,
there being as yet little foreign de-
mand for them. Since they contain a
large percentage OF saponin, they
should be of value in the manufacture
Of soap.

Business was very brisk, so the firm
appointed Patrick foreman, a position
OF which he was very proud
He was always fusslng around, or.
dering this and altering that. One
morning his gang of men stopped

known voice OF their now foreman
shouting loudly.
Down below on the ground stood
Pat, yelling Justify, and waving his
arms wildly.
"Oi say, you, up therel" he shout.

DOLLARS AND DUCKS.

William r. Jones, IN his most eX
cellent paper, the Frankfvrd (Mo)
Chronicle, says il is well for young
men to know that dollars are like
ducks one follows another-aud though
they may waddle along slowly and with
some effort they will eventually yet
there.
We have young men IN this town
who are just starting out on the road
OF life, but where that road will lead 70
is for them to say.
They are earning a few dollars now
and as time progresses their earning
capacity will increase. If the early
accumulatons are thrown to the birds
it is more than likely that in later life
the Duzzards will roost on the graves of
their ambition.
But II their first dollars are careful
" laid away in n we'll sewed pocket,
and this lesson of thrift and frugality is
f0stered and encouraged, then in time
the bank will become the depository OF
their earnings and Accommodations and
eventually wealth and the eagle will
soar over the heads of ccessful men.
Those who waste today will squander
tomorrow, and tomorrow is the agent
Of the devil and the prime minister OF
hell.
Keep an eye on the young men Of
our town, but keep both eyes on those
who spend wisely but not foolishly,
who are full OF life and ginger, but
never carry it to excess, whose eyes
are fixed upon the eagle and not upon
the buzzard,
Like the waddling duck, they may
advance slowly 5ur they will get there
| in time.

WI, Reu.Heads Are Seldom Bald.

The reason why redhaired people
are less subject to badness than 9TH
ers Is said to be this: Their hair is
relatively thick, one red hair being
almost as thick of five fair or three
brown hairs. The consequence is that
with 10000 red hairs the scalp is well
matched. whereas with the same num-
Der of fair hairs one is comparatively
bald.

Plants aud flowers are forms of beau

And no home, however poor and mea-

surroundings. When passing through
the crowded tenement districts on cars,

the work OF adaptation is lost. The
proper way Is to gather enough from a
good crop to supply seed for two or
three years thereafter. Good seed will
keep without depreciation this long.
Go out into the cornfield before the
first killing frost, gather a good supply
OF the best ears to be found on stalks
growing In competition with others;
hang these ears up In some place where
they will be protected, but at the same
time have a good chance to dry out
quickly. When dry enough to shell do
so and put the seed away where it will
not be exposed to too great changes in
temperature and moisture Any man
can follow the simple directions here
given and plant his fields every year
with good, vigorous growing seed
which he knows IS adapted to his farm.
The matter of seed supply Is case
Of avoiding trouble rather than trying
TO remedy the trouble after 1t has ar
rived. If no seed of the last crop Is
available the farmer is in bad shape.
He must purchase his seed. and In do
ing tn1S ne 1S IN grave danger or on
tanning either poor seed or seed Of late
maturing varieties.
Home grown seed that has been we'll
cared for even though 1t was not thor
oughly mature, is almost certain to give
better results than imported seed. BY
home grown seed is meant seed grown
on the farm. or In the same county. or
where the same general conditions af-
fected the crop. The point to be. EN-
phasized ia that the farmer In M!une-
sofa or North Dakota should not send
for seed grown In southern South Da-
kota or Iowa. II this Is done the crop
resulting will almost certainly be inn
mature next fall when 1t is necessary
to harvest
