DON'T CONDEMN "Y" BECAUSE
OF PARKER

We heartily endorse the following
sentiment which Homer Guck express
8 SO nicely in the Houghton Mining
Gazette:
Yet let US not condemn the
work OF the Y. NJ. G. A. for the
errors OF one unfortunate secre-
tary who probably didn't do much
thinking when he refused to coun-
tenance a dance. Let US not con-
denim the Y. NJ. c. A. work when
we read stories like that one pub
lished in the last Sunday Times
OF New York, telling OF the refus-
al OF the organization to accept
volunteer worker whose worth
was acknowledged. whose exper-
fence was unQuestioned and who
offered service without pay, be-
cause she was a Unitarian and
not some other religious believer.
These things are too bad. But
they are not, to any thinking man
or woman, conclusive arguments
against the Y NJ. c. A.. They are,
on the other hand. simply eviden-
ces that exceptions to the rule
always are to be found in any or
ganization. They are evidences
that among a body of high class
workers Of the finest type always
there are some individuals who
lack tact and judgment and com
mon sense and who look upon
their personal opinions as over
shadowlng those of the men they
are supposed TO serve. We do not
believe that the people who gave
their money so willingly to sup
port the Y. NJ. G. A. camp work are
open to argument as 10 whether
dancing Is good or not good for
soldiers. That's the business of
the soldiers and their officers
And soldiers, from the time OF
Wellington and Washington, have
always enjoyed dancing. We hope
this Camp Custer Y. NJ. c. A. secre-
tary isn't so peculiar in his person
al ideas that he refused soldiers
permission TO smoke in their
building.
Criticism Of the Y. NJ c. A. becaus
of this man Parker should not by an
means apply to the work of the asso
citation in general, but should be di
rected TO the eliminating from Y N
c. A. work men Of such narrow view
az Parker.
We happened in with this man Park
er recently. and from our experienc
with him we feel that Bro. Guck wi
be disappointed i'm his hope about thi
mans personal views. He glibely in
formed us that the American army !

The people of Crystal Falls are to
vote on the adoption or rejection OF
a new charter and some of them, OF
the class who are always suspicious OF
the real progressive men in every
community are claiming that Tom
Conlin, editor OF the Crystal Falls
Diamond Drill has some personal axe
to grind in advocating favorable
vote for the charter Charters be-
come obsolete in time and reyisions
are necessary TO proper government.
And generally those with the least
property interests are loudest in their
objections to better business methods.
These fellows argue that the things
which were good enough for their
grandfathers ought to be good enough
for their grandchildren. which shows

THE LIVES OF MEN.

Are the lives OF men worth safe
guarding? Which is the more valu-
able. that some one who stands in"
gets a whack at the public crib. OF
that the men who 20 down in mines
10 earn their daily bread gets pro-
lection?
We refer to the matter OF a mine
inspector Careful inspection by a
competent man would have entirely
ayerted the recent disaster at the
Amasa-Porter mine. There Is no use
to offer any excuses for that accident.
Some cases there are when accidents
yes, catastrophies-are unavoidable,
but that case isn't in point in this in
stance The men at the Amasa-Port-
er mine are victims OF pure politics.
The thousands OF dollars worth OF
property loss-an item that Is OF sec
ondary importance--is a like victim
Ask the sorrowing wife. mother,

IL the lives OF their dear ones are
worth anything TO them. Ask the
owners Of valuable property if their
investments are worth paying some
attention to the qualifications of the
man TO whom their property is to he
entrusted.
IL is currently rumored. and we
have taken some pains TO check uu
some OF these rumors, for It is not
our purpose TO attach TO any man
blame without some foundation OF
fact for the statement, that the in
spection of the mine was infrequent
One Crystal Falls resident whom
we know TO be a man OF good repute
and who had been employed in the
mine for over year. says that he
saw an inspector their once in that
time. BE that as it may, certain it l.
that following the rst cave, insult

property to insure to the men whom
the inspector is supposed to guard
the protection that the county Of Iron
Is paying for.
Lives OF men can no longer %

are alive To the crime that has beer
