No sooner Is tn spirit o Christ
mas giyin' exhausted till we're seized
with tn spirit O retrenchin' an,
after a season o spendin', with tn
New Year jest around tn corner we
talconsciously fall int retrospec-
tive mood an take a personal invoice
an soIemnly resolve t make better
shown both morally an financially
at tn close o tn comm year. So
we start off tn New Year with lofty
resolutions. Well quit drinkin' or
chewin' or smokin' or swearin'.
Maybe our new resolution II include
all Of 'em.
But we never seem t think O tn
many other things we might elimi-
nate from our program fer tn com
In year that would not only better
our chances in tn hereafter but
which would make tn path O life
far pleasanter fer those who by force
o circumstances are compelled t toll
crate US.
So let those O us who are perfect,
aside from smokin', drinkin', chew
in an swearin', dig around a little
an see if we can't find few things
besides tn ole moss covered habits
aforementioned that we could cut
out with profit t. ourselves an those
We uingle with.
Next t thinkin' only O. ourselves
tn worst habit is irwin t save
everything we make don't know
which Teller a community has tn
least regard fer-th' one who lick
up ever penny he gifts his hands on,
or tn Teller who holds on Z ever
cent that comes his way, bat ! have
my suspicious.
Iron County news. [volume] (Hurley, Wis.) 1913-1950, 1917-12-29

Livin' beyond tn outskirts o our
incomes is another habit that is
worse than either smokin' or swear
in an a habit that is doin' much t
create a widespread distrust in So
ciety. Robin Peter tn grocer, t
pay Paul, tn auto dealer, kin have
but one result.
We never hear O our women folk
maxim any New Years resolutions.
Theirs many things they might re-
solve t do besides cuttin' out eggs.
Their resolutions might have a
blightin' effect on clubs an billiard
rooms an other refugees fer TIL hen
pecked an homeless, but they would
help t revive that feelin' O love an
respect fer women that seems t be
goin' out O style these days.
Good resolutions accompanied by
a great flare O trumpets last about
as long as an ice cream cone in a
Turkish bath. Tn Teller who boasts
that he's goin' t ONT ymokin' never
throws his pipe very fer, an tn fell
Ter who proclaims from a store box
that he's thro' with tn demon rum
is about as reliable as tn statesman
who says he's thro' with tn Repub-
hcan party.
Let's DO somethin' original this
year an gather up a whole lot O
nasty little characteristics ar try t
do away with 'em fer good. We've
all got 'em. If you can't find EN-
ask somebuddy who knows you Z
pos 'em ont. They're there.
Theirs lots o folks who don't
chew or emoke or swear er drink who
carry a full line O mean traits.

"a
Make VOW that while it stays
You'll make the most Of its glorious days,
And
What? That sort Of resolve is old?
Sounds like a tale too often told?
You've made it every New Years day.
Then frittered the live-long year away?
Well, sposng you have? What's that to do
With this particular year? It's new!
New, you crouch, not the same old kind
Of muddled up year you've left behind
New each day and each minute tool
New each second is fresh-laid new!
New for the things you've left undonei
New for the you haven't runl
New for ambitions unachievedl
New for mistakes unretrieyed
New for unfinished efforts too
New for the things you mean to do!
Never one day in its bill of fare
is like another day anywhere.
And if year can be fresh and new
Why in the dickens can't you be too?
You can! So wash from your care-stained face
OF memory's dirt the last small trace
Put Ambitions garments bright,
Light your cigar with the Futures light
And say to yourself: "The old years dead.
Bury it deep! Look right ahead!
Here's New Year laid out for me,
AS full of chances it be,
So out of my way and let me go!
It's up to me, and by jings! III showP'
Then start And keep at it Hang on! Stick
You'll notice the difference mighty quick
And you'll find, before is halfway through,
It's the Happiest kind Of year for you!

Arrests Soon
To Follow
Documents Seized in Last
Raids Show Plots Extending
to Many Localities

WASHINGTON, Oct 1.-The great
harvest of indictments returned at Chi
cago. it was authoritatively stated to-
night, is only a fraction of what the
government will reap as the result Of
its nationwide raid on Industrial
Workers of the World Offices on Sep
tember 8.
Only those regarded as the chief
figures in the alleged conspiracy to
thwart the government in it's war plans
have been indicted. Tons of documents
seized in the raid have yet TO be stud
led. their disclosures catalogued and
arranged for use in further proceedings.
In obtaining indictments against l66
alleged ringleaGers of the conspiracy
the Department of Justice has simply
skinned the cream Of the investga-
ton. Documents in its possession are
understood TO show extensive and far
reaching plans. confined 20 particular
localities, and designed TO affect local
situations.
Contrary TO general belief. no direct
connection has been shown thus far be-
tween the alleged leaders Of the con-
spiracy and the huge German corrup-
tion fund believed TO have been operat-
ing in this country since Americas en-
try into the war. Many indications
point strongly TO the connection, but
none, it IS reported, is absolutely con-
tirmatory.
This development has led officials TO
believe that the full scope of the con-
spiracy's operations has not yet been
revealed So far as yet determined,
there was no master spy, no sing con-
trolling head A group of fairly gen
erous proportions, the evidence indl-
Gates, has been in charge of the entire
programme.
Various phases of the investigation
were discussed to-day at conference
between Attorney General Gregory,
Assistant Attorney General Fits. who
directed the work of making the raid
and the preparation Of evidence for the
grand jury. and A. Bruce Bielaski. chief
Of the departments bureau Of investi-
cation.

WASHINGTON, Oct. lit was stated
to day that the part of this govern
ment in the Bolo Pacha affair had been
confined to examining into his money
transactions in this country at the re-
quest of the French government 1t

large transactions with certain New
York banks, and this government had
given its services TO tracing the money
after 1T was received here from the
Deutsche Bank. of Berlin.
State Department officials refused 20
make public the proof gathered here OF
Bolo's connection with German financial
sources, saying that the story might in
terfere seriously with the work of the
French government.

the Imprisonment and reported impo-
sition of death sentence upon Alex
ander Berkman, the anarchist. Agita-
tors who came here recently from the

speakers scoffed at American liberty
and said that the bourgeoisie ruled
that country, and the Bolsheviki au-
dience applauded only mildly.
A threatened demonstration agains.

out. The government, preparing Tor
eventualitics, had sent an armored
motor car and a detachment Of troops
to guard the embassy. Ambassador

Bile harm. and did not request guard.
After the adjournment of the meeting,
the guard was recalled.

Chance for Women TO Serve
The actual work of selling the bonds,
Governor Strong said, would rest large
ly with the women, because of the large
percentage of men called TO the colors.
These women, he added, would actually
