Raymond Robins
Politically Dead

The broad avenues to political grave
yards are also paved with good inten-
tions. Nevertheless, the entrance OF
Raymond Robins into the Hughes cam
paign probably marks the end of his
usefulness to the Democratic movement.
Henceforth he must, having made the in
itial overtures, incline more and more
to the standpat group.
Originally militant radical, he
brought to the Democratic movement a
brilliant intellect and spiritual fervor
for democracy, as well as the rare gift
of oratory. Financial independence gave
him the leisure to pursue his ideals Life
was rosy for Raymond Robins.
Returning from a trip around the
world, with religious movement, fl
nanced by rich and powerful interests, fl
had acquired an imperialistic viewpoint.
His entry at that critical period into the
Roosevelt movement-a strange mixture
of the heroic and the sordid-threw him
into contact with forces stronger than
himself. In order to gain standing in
the Progressive councils, it was unavoid-
able that he accept the protective idea.
And having accepted this, he must of ne
cessity have accepted its logical coral
idl y, miiitarlSm. olep ny sUep he mas
conceded ground, basing each concession
wholly upon expediencey.
And yet, had Raymond Robins reso-
lutely turned his back upon the baser
elements in the Progressive party, and
followed the lead of fundamental Demo
Gratis like Francis ]. Heney, it might
have been possible to free himself from
his plutocratic entanglements. As it is,
We fear that, having made his bed, he
must lie upon it; and when one has felt
the soft bed of plutocracy, he has little
liking for the harsher couch of Democ-
racy. Yet his choice must be source
of keen regret to those who had hope,
for his leadership in the great fight.
Let no Democrat be mistaken; Ray
mond Robins having conceded much to
privilege, must concede even more. Hav-
ing become its associate, he must turn
back or become its servant. Hereafter
it will be easier to do the wrong than
the right thing.
Yet there is no cause for Democrats,
least of all fundamental Democrats, to
be disheartened by individual defections.
Individuals may retard, but cannot halt
popular movements. Altgeld and George
saw the inevitable conflict between the
masters and the disinherited but their
faith in the inevitable outcome kept
them serene and -teadfast. Had Ray
mond Robins had the faith of John Pc.
ter Altgeld and Henry George, he would
have chosen rightly. Meanwhile the
fight goes on.-The Public.

1T SOUNDED OMINOUS.

A man who had been married four
times was so unfortunate as to lose all
his wives. Such a matter of course had
his weddings come TO be in his town that
when, after year of widowerhood, he
announced his fifth engagement, one of
the neighbors said:
Richard, | suppose getting married
comes pretty natural to you by this
time, doesn't it,"
"Well," said Richard after due re-
Election, this fifth marriage amt going
to seem so natural. Old Parson Begg's
off on a trip 10 Europe, and he's never
failed TO tie the knot for me. / said to
Mary that | didn't think it would feel
like wedding without Parson Begg, but
she said that it was her turn TO choose
and that she meant TO start off with
that young minister that just came to
town and that if he did well she guessed
she'd stick TO him. She didn't explain
what she meant, but it sounded kinder
ominous to me"

CHARLIE DEACON TRAVELS
FOR ''EYES OF THE WORLD"
PUBLICITY STAR FOR CLUNE FILM
COMPANY OF LOS ANGELES.
Former Superintendent of Union Print
ers HONS Gives Up Job as Manager
of Labor Temple.

With gay bedecking which gives no
sign of the regrets on both sides which
it leaves behind, jolly caravan will de-
part from Los Angeles in a few days
by motor for a transcontinental tour,
says the Los Angeles Citizen
Charles w. Deacon, for the past year
and half manager of the Los Angeles
Labor Temple and for fifteen years pre-
vious to that superintendent of the
Union Printers Home of the Information
al Typographical Union at Colorado
Springs, will go leisurely over highly
picturesque route to the East, where Mr..
Deacon expects to find in future an out
let for his energy and ability.
MIR. Deacon came to Los Angeles for
the sake of his wife's health. As she
has fully recovered her vigor, the fam
lily, including Henrietta Deacon, Proctor
$. Deacon and Betsy Ann Snowdrop, a
blooded French toy poodle, will accom-
pany Mr.. Deacon up thru the Yellow
stone and on to Chicago
The same capacities which he dis
played in building up the Union Printers
Home have been shown in Los Angeles
by Mr.. Deacon, and the local labor move
ment will regret to lose one of its best
factors and most engaging personalities.
Covering the top, back and sides of the
tourist car are banners which will her
aid to that part of the country ira
versed the fact that the Clune Film Pro-
ducing company of Los Angeles, which
was responsible for the film masterpiece,
Ramona" is now engaged in making a
lavish pictorial translation of Harold
Bell Wright's story of California ro-
nance and adventure, "The Eyes of the
World"
Mr.. Deacon is a great admirer of his
gifted fellow townsman (the author lives
much of the time in Hollywood, having
an immense cultivated estate in one of
the canyons reaching out from that sub
urb), and undertakes this boost largely
as a labor of love.
The Clune company promises an elab-
crate cinema version OF this story upon
which all the resources of their large
studio in Hollywood will have been de.
voted for several months when it is
completed September /.
The scenario was prepared by the au-
thor of the book and in it he has elab-
GRATED upon the original story to a con-
siderable extent.
As the Clune company exceeded ex-
pectations in the case of Ramona" its
promises in this case are being generally
taken at their face value
1t is safe to say Charlie" Deacon
will contribute in no small degree to-
ward advertising this film masterpiece,
as his trip across the continent will
furnish good "story" for the newspa.
pers in every town he stops between
here and Chicago.

Hughes Anti-Labor Record Is
Made Known by Sam Gompers
Republican Nominee Was Against Danbuy Hatters and
Supreme Court Justice Declared Labor of Human
Beings a Commodity of Commerce

it is brief, reaffirms all that the court
declared in its 1908 opinion.
"There is another opinion of the
United States Supreme Court, written by
Justice Hughes, which throws light upon
his attitude upon this principle, which
is of fundamental Importance to the
workers of the country. 1t is his opinion
in the case of Truax VS.. Reich, a case
which involves the constitutionality of
the Arizona anti-alien law. Under that
law all employers of Arizona who en-
ployed more than five workers were for
hidden to employ less than so per cent
who were qualified electors or native
born citizens of the United States. In
that decision Justice Hughes took the po-
sition that the injunctive process applies
to personal relations.
Takes Unequivocal Position.
Justice Hughes made more definite
his endorsement of the theory that In
functions apply to personal relations.
Mr. Hughes has taken an unequivocal
position. He endorses the abuse of the
writ of injunction against which wage
earners have vigorously protested,
and which they have tried to cor.
rect by remedial legislation in order that
they might enjoy the rights and oppor-
ttnltles OF free citizens.
THE above is accurately the informa-
tion which you asked and | take it will
be of Importance to you, as well as to
the working people and liberty loving
citizens all over the country and enabling
them to understand the mental attitude
of Mr.. Hughes, who is now a candidate
for the presidency of the United States.

Reliability of Things

This morning l watched a multitude
OF ants hurrying about an ant-hill. To
me they seemed so small and insignifi-
cant. With my foot ! could have de-
stroyed their hill and crushed them all
to death. But how did they seem to
themselves? Probably very important
perhaps important as human beings
feel. They looked as if they considered
what they We're doing was very urgent,
they went at it with such devotion
and with such an air of enjoying the
exercise of their faculties. Perhaps their
eyes made them magnify one another
thousands of times. For all we could
tell, theirs might be world of marvels
and mysteries far greater than our own,
with tremendous interests and excite
ments. 1t is well for us now and then
to consider the relativity of things. To
some people a little parish is the whole
world. To others, the whole world is
little parish. Perhaps the most fortu-
nate of all are those who are able to
get away from the world and put Il,
so to speak, in its place and to take
their proper place in the universe. But
even here there can be n great differ
ence between people. Thos who accept
the universe as material thing with It's
whirling worlds and feel their insignifi-
cance of their own place in it may be
as far from the truth as those whose
interests are bound by the parish On
the other hand, those who live in the
parish may be nearer to an understand
ing of the universe and what lies be-
hind it than the greatest of materialis-
tic philosophers.-John ID. Barry.
