THE PRESIDENT AND LABOR.

When President Wilson acted as
first friend and advocate Of the Adam
son bill organized labor applauded MIN
and voted for him IN the succeeding
election. Now that the president, be-
ing elected and on his last term faFors
legislation TO prevent strikes what IS
or ganized labor going to do, support
him or oppose him?
There IS a general demand for les-s-
!ation calculated to avoid complica-
ton like that which forced a law thru
the congress without full debate or
sufficient consideration but in haste
lest an arbitrary embargo on all trans
oortarion should be enacted BY paraly-
sis Of the railroad lines Of the entire
country. The fact is that the delloer-
ate purpose Of the whole country is to
seek a remedy for a condition most
dangerous &c business.
The proposition that will come be-
fore congress backed by the president
does not call for enforced labor put
simply for the keeping Of contract
which Il broken suddenly would INFECT
huge damage on those who While not
immediate parties to the contract SUI
fer the greatest damage and discom-
fort from strikes. 1t will not deny Inc
right of any man to quit employment
but it will probably insist that those
EMPLOYED on public utilities shall not
strike until investigation by bodies as
impartial as may possibly created
shall have proposed basis of settle
ment. In short the legislation propos-
ed is protection of the public against
sudden strikes and lockouts. 1t will
assert the basic right OF the public
which in the last analysis is owner OF
the railroad franchises to intervene IN
| it's own behalf. And it should make
neither fish nor flesh of employees or OF
public utility corporations. .-
Without much doubt the question OF
compulsory arbitration will be promin-
ent in legislation dealing with paS!::
utilities particularly. It is hard to see
how any definite settlement could be
Preached, without it in instances OF es-
pecial bitterness.
! Organized labor has an opportunity
! It could not do better for itself than to
lassist in framing such a law. No class
or organization can be permitted to
[eontrol congress and legislation thru
physical force. whether bankers or ba-
kers. The proposed system for this
|country is based on that Of Canada
which has worked well and satisfac-
torily for a number of years there.

STOCK SELLING SCHEMES.

w aiIdCeS TdTHeI.J
In a recent issue, we spoke OF the
difficulties which publishers are ex-
periencing now because Of the large
advances in the price Of print paper
and other materials which go into the
making Of their publications. A num-
Der of publications Of general charac-
ter have recently been consolidated
some few have been discontinued.
Others are endeavoring to unload
their own burdens onto the shoulders
Of people who do not make their IN
vestments with as much care as they
should This Is done by selling capital
stock, sometimes in the paper Itself;
at other times the stock In q building

method The publisher organizes diff

as publisher, he makes deal with

DOUBLE ELECTION BOARDS.
Waterloo Times Tribune

Any of the larger counties in Iowa
would be able 10 hold their elections at
less cost with the double board system
than with the single board. 1t is well
known fact that after men sit on elec-
ton boards for twelve hours and then
take up the counting of the ballots that
the counting must go slowly. We know
Of election boards here in Waterloo
that were in continuous session FOR
sixty hours and drew pay for that
length Of time; when if the double sys-
tenn We're in force the work would have
been done one hour. at least. after the
polls closed Too, better men can be
secured for service, as few competent
men desire job that runs continuous
ly for twentyf four hours at least.
1t is a necessary reform. 1t is in the
interest of efficiency and economy.

Crank at Neigh
Draws Good Crowd;
Clinches Argument

Neigh, Neb., Oct. ESPECIAL y
A. L. Crank addressed large crowd
here this afternoon. In spite of the
fact the only available public hall OF
size was in use, Mr.. Crank addressed
a large crowd from an automobile on
the street. His audience paid close
attention and on numerous occasions
expressed its approval of his remarks.
He devoted his attention largely to
a discussion of the need of protec-
tive tariff, which would be imperative
at the close of the European war. His
remarks on the handling of the Mexi-
can situation were especially we'll re-
ceived, especially as he noted the
humiliating position in which the ad-
ministration had placed this country,
His address was particularly strong
in that he gave the Wilson admin
stration credit for the good things
which it had done, which put an added
point to his criticism of other acts
which he disapproved.

FEW DANGERS GO
. TO The MASK BALL
Social Leaders and Governors
Chaperon Event, Which Was
on Elaborate Lines.
NUMBER is DISAPPOINTING

The mask ball at the Den last night
was a pleasant affair, but the attend
ance might have been much larger
without taxing the capacity of the
building. In fact, there were only
about $50 spectators. There were,
possibly, $50 to 800 dancing.
There was big orchestra and all
the beautiful settings Of the castle of
the king, just as they were the night
before when the king was crowned.
The mask ball started off, like the
coronation ball, with the appearance
Of sixty dancing girls in flowing robes
OF green and yellow and red, sugges-
tive Of woodland colors. Several OF
the girls were only 8 to 5 years old
and their dancing and pirouetting won
great applause.
The evening dress of number OF
social leaders blended with the cos
tunes of the other maskers, the nurse
the bad man of the west, the Mexican
Dutch boy, jockey, toreador, "rube,
lady of the harem, Japanese, convict,
Arab and so on.
The Ak-Sar-Ben governors were
there also in their evening toys,
among those noticed being Messrs. E.
Buckingham, L. c. Nash, George
Brandeis, and their wives.
The fact that the turnout was dis
appointment was not concealed by
those in charge OF the ball.

The Old Ant Lion
G1ves a Fen Lessons

while keeping as accurately to the
curve as il his body had been the
tracing point OF pair OF compass,es'
he made a scoop-shovel OF one oil ms
legs, with which he continually
heaped loads of displaced sand upon
his broad head and jerked them, with
powerful -exertions OF the neck
muscles, to a distance OF several
inches beyond the outer limits OF the
circle. -,
The young ant-1ion looked on with
admiration. and would have clapped
his hands il he had had any, while he
watched this living combination OF
excavator and dredger, reinforced
with the ejecting powers OF cata-
pult, sweep slowly round the circle,
regularly widening and deepening
the original furrow on the inner side.
Round and round went the won"
derful insect, making circle within
circle, each at a lower level, because,
with an instinct to which science
could have taught nothing, he always
used as inside leg to scoop up the
sand, and meyer an outside one.
Thus, when at length he reached
the center, he was at the bottom OF
conical excavation in the sand, all
of the material that had filled the
space having been thrown outside
the circumference OF the bounding
circle. The depth of the excavation
was about two inches, so that the
sandy walls were as steep as they
could be made without caving in.
During this triumphant exhibition
of the highest skill and knowledge
of his race, the younger ant-lion re-
manned at the brink of the circular
cavity, peering down with increasing
interest and receiving frequent warn
ings from the busy worker below to
keep out of the way and to stop roll
ing sand down. Presently, provoked
by the awkwardness of the visitor.
who incautiously sent an avalanche
down into the pit, the excavator NUT
tered: "I'll fix you, young fellowp
He had just come upon pebble

exerting all his force, he hurled it

turber full under the jaws, like an
uppercut in the prize ring, lifting
him from his feet and rolling him
over. But he was tough-ant-lions,
naturally are--and no bones, or
their equivalents, were broken.

works finished. Slide down and do

sand by my side, so that only your

sooner or later some curious ant or
other toothsome insect will put his
feet on the crumbling brink and
come down with rush of sand, then
we'll have a real feast. You see
what it is to be skilful trapper."
