THOUGHTS TO THINK
ABOUT

Conscience is often made into
a cloak to clothe the nakedness
OF wrong doing, but conscience
never weaves the web well.
Man destroys the true es-
sence OF himself by thinking
overmuch of himself, conceit
will defeat man.
Duty is delightful only when
diligently done; dreaming in
stead of doing brings a deluge
of decisions.
If you are in need Of a type
writer or any kind of office fur

crate price, read the columns of

WHY SPIDER WAS THERE

When Mark Twain, in his early
days, was editor Of Missouri paper,
a superstitious subscriber wrote to
him saying that he had found spider
in his paper, and asking him whether
it was a sign of good luck or bad. The
h1morist wrote him this answer and
printed it:
"Old Subscriber: Finding a spider
in your paper was neither good luck
nor bad luck for you. The spider was
merely looking over our paper to see
which merchant is not advertising, so
that he can go to. that store, spin his
web across the door and lead life of
undisturbed peace ever afterwards"
Wealth today consists of 5 per cent
of natures gift and IS per cent of
labor.-Stephenson.

take the places in the mills The
logical inference of the remarkable
document issued by the Everett Com
mercial clubs committee was that It
was enough to warrant the quick
killing of man to prove that he was
q member Of the Industrial Workers
Of the World. and that he was sliding
strikers in the organized labor move
ment.
In that temper of ruthless EXTERN
ination Of I. w. w. and of labor fed
erationists alike the prosecutions in
Seattle Ito which place the trial was
moved from Everett) is now proceed

The state federation Of labor of
Washington, through its president.
e. p: Marsh, has recognized the sim
lister and cynical fight on labor that
is centered now in this effort to crush
labor organization by putting away"
it's leaders. Some of the men killed
d1seme, Of those now on trial were
E- sW.-ss.s ..zx;1~..but the industrial strug-
Elett1 which they and all the workers
in that field offered their help was a
strike of ,.underpaid' and >i1l-used
trades unionists. President Marsh of
the Washington State Federation
conducted a careful, patient inves-
tigationr of all the causes and events
of the fighting: His statement, fix
ing the: blame for the rioting upon
the ofheial~nposse" and upon the fl
nancial interests opposed to labor,
has proved unanswerable to those
now conducting the prosecution.
Congress Not to Intervene.
congressman of the state of Wash
ington, who were appealed to by the
Washington Federation of Labor for
a congressional inquiry in aid of the
prosecuted workers, have replied that
congress would not likely intervene
because the facts and the struggle
were too local" :.
But as a. matter Of demonstrated
fact national issue Of the industrial
ing another dramatic exhibition in
these Seattle trials.
What happened in Everett and
what is happening in Seattle are only
link in the chain Of expressions
with which great corporate interests
throughout the nation controlling
billions OF dollars capital, are seek
ing to increase their power over I'M
organized workers by keeping them
unorganized. The usual opportunities
that workers now have through Or
ganization in their own trades unions,
to raise their standard of living have
frightened those whose profits and
whose power are threatened by Ia
creased wages and increased power
acquired by wage earners. The efforts
Of workers to realize their better op-
portunities have been met or antici-
pated by such conspiracies and COM
binations to beat down the labor
unions as these perverted prosecu-
lions Of the Pacific coast.
! Can the trials in Seattle be tajr
when based on unfair prosecutions?
The legal processes of this country
and it's industrial processes are on
trial there as we'll as are the workers
who must defend their lives.

WIFE IS KILLED IN BURGLAR TRAP
 HUSBAND BUILT

HARMONY, w. Va, April l2.-on two successive days the home of J. Arthur Shaw, a baker, was robbed while he was at work. The house was unoccupied during the day, Mrs. Shaw and her four children being on a visit to relatives in Connellsville, Pa.
 Determined to foil any future burg laries, Shaw tied string to the knob of the back door and attached the end of the string to the trigger of a rifle. He arranged his trap so that the rifle would be discharged when the door opened.
 Mrs. Shaw returned home uneXpect- edly the day that Shaw had arranged his burglar trap. Finding the doors locked she had one of her children climb through the window and m- latch the back door. She then opened the door The rifle was discharged and the bullet entered her brain. She lived only few minutes.

 "Snakes!"
 ''I done gofe lost nah appetite fO' eels," said Jasper. as he shot for the hall door. In a few seconds the snakes, not given to living in water, began to crawl over the table, and dropped to the floor. A policeman had to be called in to "arrest" the reptiles and quiet the walters.

Washington, March 12.-Official dis
patches to the army department on
Friday established that Cuban govern
ment forces have regained control Of
Santiago, the stronghold of the rebel
uprising. President Menocal has mott
fed this government that Governor
Munoz, in command there, represents
him and the recognized Cuban govern
ment. Consul Griffith, at Santiago, in
an undated dispatch received at the
state department, said American ma
rines had been landed there to protect
Americans and their property.
The repossession of Santiago and
the capture of the rebel leader, Gomez,
and his staff are regarded here as
marking the collapse Of the rebellion.
Dispatches do not say whether there
was a fight, but say the rebels, ''realiz-
ing they were traitors about to be cap
tured," threw away their arms and fled
to the outskirts.
1t appears from the dispatches,
which are incomplete, that the Munoz
forces took the city by a coup within
it and before the Menocal troops
marching on Santiago had arrived.
Munoz previously had declared him.

government and at his request Ameri-

BAGDAD IS CAPTURED
BRITISH TROOPS TAKE IMPoR.
| TANT CITY FROM TURKS
AFTER LONG CAMPAIGN.
BATTLE IN DUST STORM
Drive of General Maude Into Ancient
| Capital of the caIiphs Called Great
est Victory of War for the Allies
| Defeat of Gen. Townshend Recalled.

London, March 13.-Bagdad, the
chief Turkish city in MesopOtamia and
formerly the capital of the empire of
the caliphs, has been captured by the
British forces. Announcement Of the
capitulation of the city was made on
Sunday by the British official press
bureau.
The statement was issued on re-
ceipt of a telegram from General
Maude saying the British forces had
occupied Bagdad early Sunday morn
ing. No details of the capture of the
city were contaSed in General
Maude's dispatch.
During the day the following Off
cial report was received concerning
the operations against Bagdad, carry
ing them up to Saturday morning,
when the Turks had been forced back
TO within three miles west and south
west of the city:
"The enemy was driven from this
position to another position two miles
In the rear.
During the 9th our forces on the
right bank (Tigris) drove the enemy
from his second position, bivOuacking
on the ground gained. This advan-
tage, notwithstanding a binding dust
storm and a violent gale, was pressed
on the morning of the 10th, the Turks
being pushed back to within three
miles west and southwest of Bagdad."
General Maude's drive nOrthward
along the crooked Tigris since the
capture of Kut is regarded in London
as one of the most spectacular and
brilliant feats of the war.
