The Glorious Gobbler.
the glorious gobbler!

All hail the glorious goobler!
When autumn skies are gray
He mounts his china platter throne
And rules Thanksgiving Day;
It is a noble oval
With gflded garlands fair,
Or It may be an heirloom priced
OF old blue willow ware.
Salute the glorious gobbler;
Enough sometimes it's a hen
That dawns in appetiZing brown
Upon our famished ken).
He wears his festal dressing
Contrariwise, within,
Receiving all his subjects true
In nothing but his skin.
Here's to the glorious gobblerl
Though far afleld they roam,
Yet in his honor every year
The children gather home.
His drumsticks beat assembly
From mountain top to sea,
He wears a golden celery crown,
The king OF birds is he.
Long live the glorious gobbler,
With his attendant pies,
Mince, pumpkin, apple, cranberry,
And each of generous size.
OF all the famous monarchs
From Ecuador to Spain,
He Is the only one who boasts
An undisputed reign.
-Minna Irving, in New York Sun.

Domination Of the Press.

w. ). Carter, president of the
Brotherhood of Railway Firemen and
Enginemen, delivered a remarkable
address yesterday before the con-
vention of the American Federation
of Labor in Baltimore. He declared
that the danger that confronts all
working people today is "the coer-
eion or subornation of the public
press by the master class" and as
serted:
The coming of the penny paper
has done more than anything else
to place the press under the domina-
ton of advertisers. Unfortunately,
labor has but little to do with adver-
tising; practically all of the adver-
tisements come from the master
class"
Mr.. Carter then explained that
when the railroad brotherhoods be-
gan the eight-hour movement a year
ago "a few men in New York City,
who direct the affairs of all the rail-
roads" undertook one of the greatest
publicity campaigns the world ever
has witnessed. He further declared
that he has positive evidence that
provision was made to spend mil
lions of dollars for advertising ito
prejudice the public against the
brotherhoods."
Such statements delivered by an
intelligent man before a body of in
telligent men hardly can be ignored.
The statements are intended to mean
that because advertisers buy adver-
tising space they influence" the
news and editorial columns.
Such meaning obviously is alb
surd to any who know about news
papers. 1t probably was intended
only for those who do not know
about newspapers. But there are
certain fundamentals about newspa-
pers which show how closely Mr..
Carter adhered to fact.
A newspaper that is unfair in its
news and editorial columns to any
one class of people loses the support
Of those people. A newspaper unfair
to the brotherhoods in the present
fight is almost certain to lose the
support of the entire laboring class
and the laboring class, broadly speak
ing, is all the people with the excep-
ton of those who are in what Mr..
Carter calls the master class" A
newspaper without the support of
the people is a newspaper without
circulation. A newspaper without
circulation is newspaper without
advertisements.
Therefore, it seems that one of Mr..
Carter's statements should be amend
ed so as to read: "The coming of the
penny paper has done more than
anything else to place the press un-
der the domination of the people"
Mr.. Carter's statement that the
master class" made provision for an
advertising campaign to prejudice
the public against the brotherhoods'
probably is true. 1t also is true that
the brotherhoods likewise made pro-
vision for an advertising campaign,

The consolidation of government and
trade interests in European countries
brings the imperative need of like CO.
operation in this country. For several
years It has been the American policy to
prevent the combination of Industrial en-
terprise In the handling Of big business. :"
Great corporations in world trade have
been dissolved by order Of the court as
unlawful Our principal instrument in
the extension Of American trade to for
eign lands has been placed under the ban
of American law. 1t should be made the
business Of Congress to reverse this pol
icy. at least so far as II extends to
foreign fields II we are to hold our own
in the trade after the war we must have
cooperation between the government and
American business; we must have a law
permitting manufacturers to combine for
the purpose of developing foreign trade.
