JULY THE FOURTH.

July the Fourth, the one hundred
and forty-second anniversary Of Inde-
pendence Day, will assume new and
significant meaning. 1t not only marks
the anniversary of freedom, but it is
the day upon which the nation will re-
new its pledge to the cause of univer-
sal freedom The basis for the great
celebration of the foreign born and
their sons and daughters is contained
in a petition addressed to President
Wilson by representatives OF % foreign
nationalities.
The governors of all states and may
ors Of all leading cities arc co-operat-
ing in the plans for celebrations, pa
rades, pageants, mass meetings and
speeches on the part of Americas for
eign born to manifest their loyalty to
the United States and the cause for
which it fights In granting the petit
ton of the foreign born for national
proclamation, President Wilson has
said: "As July 4, 1916, was the dawn
of democracy for this nation let us on
July 4, 1918, celebrate the birth of a
new-a greater spirit Of democracy
by whose influence we hope and
believe, what the signers of the Decla-
ration of independence dreamed of for
themselves and their fellow country
men, shall be fulfilled for all man
kind"

THE SCARCITY OF LABOR

The scarcity of labor for many in
dustries and businesses has become an
acute and perplexing problem already
and indications are that it will be
even more serious before the end OF
the summer.
The work or fight" rule will send
to essential industries thousands of
young men, and will further reduce the
available man power for jobs that are
clamoring for attention.
While little or nothing has been said
about it, the newspapers have been
particularly hard hit This is true OF
the weekly press IS well as of the
daily. Indeed, the latter. by paying
increased wages, have Ftsi less worry,
but the smaller plant has been greatly
handicapped. There is now demand
throughout the state for experienced
linotype operators and printers, and
wages for the latter are in many in
stances so to IS per cent. higher than
at this time last year. Many shops
have Jobs that are going a-begging, re-
gardless Of the salary offered. simply
because there are no men obtainable
for the places.
There must be a REIMBURSEMENT along
all lines. There must re curta1lmeht,
doubling up. new system, in order to
meet the changed conditions brought
about by so many men going into the
military service. The employer who
waits before planning to perfect
new arrangements for the future is 60
ing to find himself in critical condi-
ton This is one time when time must
De taken by the forelock, and even
then there arises the proposition Of
finding the right kind of labor
Eventually, if the war continues for
two or three years, it must resolve
itself in this country into more women
taking up the work formerly done ex-
clusively by men.

THE WESTERN UNION

The refusal of the president of the
Western Union Telegraph Company to
accept the decision of the War Labor
board, presided over by ex-President
Taft, puts that company in a not very
enviable light
At time when the country is at
war and Geographic communication is
one of the most essential items for use
by both the military and naval forces
of the country, the president of the
Western Union forces an issue in or
der to compel the United States to
acquire" his company at whta would
undoubtedly be good profit. Govern
ment ownership has suddenly become
popular, with Uncle Sam guaranteeing
interest and profits.
There is new way of looking at
this entire proposition, however,
which might put different phase on
the matter, even from the Westerns
Union presidents point of view. There
was recently passed by congress an
act whereby any one "obstructing the
military or naval operations of the
United States at time of war" may
be imprisoned for not less than thirty
years or fined 10000 or both. This act
is Public No. 135, Sixty-Fifth Con-
gress, Second Session." and was Gre
ated to punish the willful injury or
destruction of war material, or Of
war premises or utilities used in con-
nection with war material, and for
other purposes" It is specifically cit
ed in this act that whoever interferes
with or obstructs the United States
= in preapring for or carrying on
war = 9 or shall injure or destroy
war premises or war utilities >
shall be subject on conviction" to the
fine mentioned. "War utilities are
defined as telephone and telegraph
lines.
President Carlton, in his attitude
as obstructionist at this time is put
ting himself in precarious position.
The act above referred to was mainly
designed to cope with labor agitators
not open to reason, but it would be pc
culiarly fitting if Mr. Carlton should at
this time be made to see the light
Perhaps, if he does not watch his step,
Uncle Sam may make an example of
him.

GARRY on"

The war has given currency to
many words and phrases, and attach
ed to them in some cases new shades
of meaning-as in carry on
1t is said in accounts of air raids
on London, while bombs were drop
ping near the theatres and there was
a stir among the audience, there was
heard the call, Garry on!" and the
performance continued. The soldier in
the trenches carries on"
The earliest use of the phrase in the
modern sense that has been found is
in "Hudibras
And is this all? Is this the end
To which these carvings on did
tend?
Shakespeare's use of the phrase
carry on" does not come under the
classification in which it is now used,
but merely in the ordinary sense, as
in "Troilus and Cressida," where it is
said of one that he carries on the
stream OF his discourse"
The dialectic use of the phrase re-
fers' to behavior or conduct and gen
orally in bad sense, as in instances
culled from Wrights English Dialect
Dictionary.
None of the citations of its use go
! back more than half century. In
TON Cringle's Log" by Michael
Scott, begun in Blackwood's in 1929
the first instance Of its use in the
war meaning is in the closing sentence
/ of the first chapter, describing the
battle at sea between an American
frigate and a British man-of-war of
Bermuda, and the British vessel was
glad to evade its stronger zoe at night
