How a state which when it is

American navy is a question be-

BY giving Wilson the vote it
did, California, with its record
and Wilson'S record, presented
itself as the champion boob state
of the American republic.
The only thing needed for the
perfection of the irony was that
the workers who want laps ex-
cluded in order that American
standards of comfort shall not be
lowered, should have tried to de-
liver the state TO the administra-

down national courage.
California, which wants ev-

Stefan Balsic in evening dress in

She recognized in him the man
beside whom her own social ex-
perience was that of provincial
debutante.
The table was laid in a room

meal progressed the host took up
his duty of conversation, speak
ing lightly and easily of topics
pleasant to both; of a new opera
by one of the greatest young ltal-
ian composers, whom he knew; or
certain Russian Dancers he mad

by his charm and practiced tact
into showing herself not dull. Aft

this hour sparkled.

rose with sense of confused time
and values. How was II possible
to like and respect her abductor

no know, but she laid her fingers
on the arm offered and walked
beside Stefan Balsic to the door
of the princess tower. There he
bowed formal leave, and she went

SIONS ON the transaction!
The anthracite coal operators
and their Wall street mentors are
the "Edisons" of this wonderful,
quick-action profit extractor that
soothes the public into twilight
sleep during the operation.
We all remember the great an
thracite coal strike in 1902 and
the strike commission appointed
by the president, and the increase
in wages and prices of anthracite
coal.
Wages Up 10 Per Cent.
But before the strike of 1902
miners wages had been increas-
ed voluntarily with consequent
increase in the price of coal.
DR.. Scott Nearing, who knew
too much to hold his job In a
great state university, says:
Labor disturbances have been
very successfully employed in late
years by the anthracite operators
as a means of increasing coal
prices. PUBLIC SYMPATHY is
WON FOR THE TRANSACTION
BY A SIMPLE, PSYCHOLOGY

Wages were increased 10 per

The 1912 agreement is said to
have added THIRTEEN MILLION
DOLLARS to the cost of anthra-

mine worker seems to have gain

1912 agreement"
The railroads now proclaim
that there Is to be a nationwide
strike by their employees in train
and yard service, and they pro-
claimed this six mdaths before a
single conference was held with
the representative committees of
such employees, and before it was
known that an agreement could
not be reached without a strike.
Evidently the railroads are
determined that there shall
be a strike. They are as
surfing the public that If
these employees are granted
an eight-hour day, il will
cost the people of this coun.
try ONE HUNDRED MIL
LION DOLLARS!
Let US hope that one-fourth OF
this amount will filter through
the fingers of these railroad fin

The Other House

IL was a wild trail that led 10
the house of Michael Balsic; such
a trail as Jack Rupert had never
yet encountered in Europe OF
America. Loose stones cut the
tires from the rims, delaying
progress for repairs. Sunset was
flaming along the west before De-
lights envoy sighted his jour
ney's end.
1t was a bare, bleak group OF
houses fixed on broad ledge
against the mountainside. The
largest house in the village was
that of Michael Balsic.
