Impressive Pageant.

The pageant of Darkness and Light,
given by about 80 young people at the
Congregational church Sunday evening,
was a beautiful and impressive service
The meeting was in charge of Miss
Mary Robinson, who read the scripture.
Prayer was offered by Rev. Irving Gray.
An exercise, Little Citizens, by sew
eral children in costume, represented the
different classes in our country who
have not been taught the love of the
Saviour. The boy choir sang Faith of
Our Fathers in a pleasing ranner. The
solo, The Lord is My Shepherd, by f. o..
Allen, was enjoyed, as his selections al
ways are. Following this was the
pageant. In the front Of the dimly
lighted church on the raised platform
appeared five Young In i'll white
Grecian costumes, with large candles
and open Bibles. These were the in
tcrprcters. After singing an opening
verse, i'll the back of the church was
heard an unseen choir singing pray
er of Christians for vision and equip
ment of service. This was followed by
scripture recited by the interpreters
and the singing Of one verse of Hark,
the Voice of Jesus Calling. While this
was being sung the invisible singers,
dressed in white, came in bearing small
lighted candles. When the call was
finished thew answered by singing II
Go Where You Want Me to Go. At the
close of this there appeared cropping
figures clothed in black gowns, with
covered heads. The Interpreters sang,
They Are Cropping in the Shadows. The
girl at the head OF the line OF Chris
tians faced her sisters and sang alone.
o Come Let Us Go and Find Them.
which was answered by all the Chris
tians, O., Yes, We VIII Go. While
the organ was softly PLAYING each
Christian girl took a dark ROBBED figure
and throwing back the black covering
passed silently out of the audience.
There were still figures cropping in the
darkness who We're obliged to return
whence they came as there was no one
to lead them. The interpreters sang in
closing How Little We Have Done 10
Bring the World to Thee, Its Rightful
King.

WHAT OTHERS SAY

Should Scarlet, Tresca, ct al be
turned loose a mighty fine prin-
ciple in things material would get
an awful black eye. Perhaps they
did not fire the fatal shot-but
they melted it. Their flag stands
for such stuff. If this writer
hired someone to rob the local
banks we could hardly expect i'm
should our accomplices be
arrested. Had bear trap been
set for this Gurley Flynn person
upon her first appearance on the
range the miners would have
been at work long ago. Had a
good deep test pit been handy in
which to drop the agitators on the
first day of their appearance, not
a "gunman" would have been
seen. Free speech to some is mis-
construed Tower News.

1t is costing Uncle Sam about
$15, 100000 month to keep 100,
600 state troops and $4,000 reg
ular army troops on the border
and in Mexico. Expenditures to
date total more than $70,000,000.
1t is estimated that further ex-
penditure of $50, 100000 will have
to be made.
1t will cost close to 81 1000, 600
to bring the $4,000 state troops
now en- route from the border to
their home stations to be mus
tered out. 1t will cost similar
amount to move $4,000 state
troops southwark to replace the
men ordered home. This ex-
change of troops will continue
until the 20,000-odd men still re-
naming in the state mobilization
camps are sent to the border to
do their share of patrol duty

Uncle Sam believes in adver-
tising-if it doesn't cost any,
thing. The postoffice department,
army and navy departments are
constantly requesting publicity
but they fail to come across with
the regulation price. Many of the
circulars sent out request news
paper publicity, but with the un-
derstanding that there is to be no
charges for the same. The news
papers pay the regular rates of
postage, but Uncle Samuel at
tempts to secure most of his ad-
vertising free of charge, and many
of the newspapers, in generous
spirit, give publicity to the gov
eminent for nothing that the pri-
vate individual would be obliged
to pay for.-Stillwater Gazette.

LABOR VOTE NOT DELIVERABLE
This 10 the Outstanding Fact Which
Political Philosophers Deduce From
the Defeat In Maine Of Repre-.
sentative McGIlIIcuddy.

From among the numerous lessons
or conclusions which the political phi
losOphers can draw from the Maine
election one lesson or conclusion
stands out more sharply defined than
any other. 1t Jumps at you.
The labor vote, for the sake Of
which the Poltroon Congress tarred
and feathered itself with its own
hands only a dozen days ago. is not
deliverable by the traders who pre-
tended to sell 1t.
This salient fact Of the election Ii
illustrated conspicuously in the Sec
ond Congress district. There are few
places within the confines of our
republic where labor Is relatively
stronger than In the city Of Lewiston,
the home city Of Representative Nc
Gillfcuddy, and he has made q spe-
cialty Of 1t in his own political prac-
tice. In the Second Maine, II any-
where, would there be indications Of
any return, In the shape of votes, for
the surrender Of Congress to the four
BrOtherhOOds. After campaign
which might almost be called desper-
ate In its effort to save McGillicuddy
and one Democratic seat In the House
from the Republican onset, Mr.. Nc
Gillicuddy was defeated by an nd
verse plurality Of nearly 400, whereas
he had been elected to the Sixty
second Congress by plurality Of 1850
and to the Sixty-third by 1921.

land clearing the wonder is that
the one poor devil was able to stick
it out. The purpose of Amend
ment No. 1 which is to be voted
upon this fall is to provide a re-
volving fund which will be used in
clearing small portion on GER
tain state lands which are to be
offered for sale. This will en-
able a person to purchase land
from the state on long time, will
provide him with enough cleared
acres to raise his living, and will
be great factor in filling nor
thern Minnesota with prosperous
farmers instead of the untitled
lands that are to be found today.
Amendment No. / is worthy Of
passage and should receive a
large vote.-Nashwauk Herald.
The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1916-09-29

The reasoning power of the 1.
w. w. organization grafters is
certainly something awesome. Ad-
dresses made by Miss Flynn at
Virginia last week and also by
Jos. Ettor were to the effect that
meetings would be held all win
ter in the range towns and that
the organization work would be
kept up. Miss Flynn also urged
the miners to save their money
and give it to the One Big Union.
In order to save this money the
miners are to give up their beer
and other little extravagances.
In the face of statements made
at previous meetings this sum-
mer that the miners were ground
down by the corporations to a
RtQI NdIlOH UdSlS, ILLS ldSG gasp
sounds rather foolish. The miners
are very apt to forego all their
little pleasures in order to fatten
up big, healthy, grating bunch
of parasites like Haywood, Ettor,
Mccarthy, Flynn, Tresca, Little,
Grenir and others. The history of
the riot on the ranges has shown
the miner to his own satisfaction
that his interests are not in ques-
ton with the leaders only insofar
as they pertain to furnishing the
bunch with the cash. The pros
poets are strong that a few of the
outfit will be given steady jobs
at Saltwater before January
first where they will be able to
learn the art of Irvine making to
the tune of a few cents a day and
without the spaghetti and chicken
dinners which their poor deluded
dupes are are present rendering
them in the county Jail at Vir-
ginia and Duluth.

His record will also show that

ing to improve conditions under
which labor is performed.
Among the successful measures
Of local importance in which he
was interested was the securing Of
an appropriation for the estab-
lishment of a State fish hatchery
at Tower; also, the establishment
OF two annual terms of District
Court at Ely, a matter Of great
Importance to the people living
on the Vermilion Range. He also
took an active part in securing

Mr.. Murphy's knowledge Of the

perience gained by him as a men,
Der of the last session, well quail

When one sees the wonderful
crops that can be raised almost
everywhere in Northern Mime
sofa the first wonder is that there
are not hundreds of farmers where
there is now one. Upon looking
into the obstacles in the way Of
