THE FREE EMPLOYMENT BUREAU

Every day the Illinois free employ
ment bureau connects workers with
jobs, and nearly every day of late 1t
has published tale of places waiting
for men and women whose capital lies
in brain and muscle, rather than in
bank accounts. The latest call OF this
sort was for farm help, at wages run
ming from s35 to s45 per month. How
strange, by the way, tariff barons
must find it that American farmers,
though paying such wages, are still
able to sell their products In London
and Liverpool in competition with
crops grown by the "pauper labor" of
less developed lands!
The record OF the employment bu'
reau shows that the state Is prosper
Gus. Also, 1t gives some notion OF the
enormous benefit which Gov. Dunno
conferred on workers when he secured
the creation OF this bureau, whose
free and unselfsh service is saving
thousands Of men and women from
the extortions formerly practiced upon
them The time has passed in Illinois
when a man wanting work has to pay
for a job.-Chicago Journal.

IGNORING THE GERMANS.

The gang of bosses who are ruin
ing the Democratic party In Chicago
have decided that they can get along
without the German vote. They have
put up county ticket without a Ger.
man name on 1t and openly boast that
they don't need the Germans" This
sort Of Know Nothingism may be pop.
ular with the gang, but 1t is not popu.
lar with the people. Fair play Is
jewel and in this cosmopolitan com.
munity every nationality deserves to
be recognized on big county ticket.
The Germans are not the only people
prescribed. There Is not one man
named on the gang county ticket who
had native American grandfather.
Native Americans are tabooed. Irish
Democrats all over Chicago are indig.
nant at this action of gang OF Newly
Rich Contractors and Graft Hunters
for using methods which bring men
of other nationalities into the belief
that the Irish want all the Offices. This
is not true. The Irish.American Is
the most generous Of men and he be.
lieves in the elevation of worthy tel.
low citizens regardless Of the place Of
their birth. This noble sentiment does
not appear to have taken root in the
small minority of Irishmen who com.
pose the Office Holders Union and
the Contract Extractors' Political AS
sociation. These fellows, intoxicated
with success, drunk with power, and
proud of newly acquired wealth, be.
lieve in putting no man into Office who
will not agree beforehand to do their
bidding.
The Germans of Chicago are to be
congratulated upon the fact that the
Gang Machine has wilfully ignored
them.

which had the convention campaign
In hand, that the league had received
assurances from 105 members Of the

either opposed the resolution or failed
to vote on It. Fourteen Of these, nine
Of whom represent Cook county dis.

pledges.

BLUE SKY LAW
 SAVES THOUSANDS

Little Rock, June 3.-Since the passage by the legislature of the first act for the establishment of the so- called blue sky department, for the regulation of stock investment com panies, there have been examined 79 applications for authority to sell and offer for sale stock or bonds in Ar kansas. Of that number thirty five have been either denied outright, or have been required to so modify their business or corporate status as to satisfy the commissioner of their fairness.
 The applications thus denied have total of $1,721, ,255 of stocks and bonds, the sale of which had been asked. w. T. Maxwell, in charge, said: "It may not be claimed, how ever, that this amount of money has been saved through this department to the people of Arkansas, but it is certain that this amount of question able investment has been kept away from our people, and the possibility of fraudulent or unfair investment circumscribed to that extent. Every purchaser of corporate stocks should be satisfied of its pedigree"
