HANDING IT OUT ON THE LABOR BEE
Secretary of of New Jersey.

1t was dismal morning. in Novem-
ber when Tom Merrill left his little
home in Franklin for his journey to
the Office of the Labor Bee. Now
usually, Tom, who was "boss" around
the printery, would hasten his step,
being at his desk before the arrival
of his force. On this particular morn
ing, however, he took the long way
round and stopped at the village post
office. Casually glancing over his mail,
he noticed a letter postmarked Rails
ton Corners-and this was where Tom
had spent his boyhood days. "Ah," he
said, land so it goes. Can it be from
old Bill Hackett, haven't seen him. in
twenty years" And then sprucing up,
he resumed his journey to the office on
Main street.
Tomorrow would be publication day
on the Bee and everybody was busy.
Dropping the bundle of letters on his
desk, Tom went upstairs to the COM
posing room.
"Good morning, boys" came from
Tom, who was apparently worrying
over something. "I expect to be away
for a few days and when / get back
l may have something to say to you"
Slipping downstairs again, Tom was
soon in the midst of his work, for the
editorial page would require some at
tention, owing to the "wet" and "dry'
election which was but two weeks off.
The whistle blew, it was IL o'clock,
and the force was scurrying home for
dinner. Tom leaned back in his chair,
when he picked up the letter from
Ralston Corners. Carefully opening
the envelope, he drew forth type
written document from Brown and
Smith, counsellors-at-law, and then he
eagerly read down the page. Old Bill
Hackett had passed to the great be-
yond some three months back and in
the will "all was to go to my friend,
Tom Merrill" Could it be true? OF
course, his first thoughts were about
poor Bill, whom he had not seen in
twenty years, and then to think he
was to receive the entire estate. He
must get in touch at once with Brown
and Smith.
A train would leave at 5 and that
would get him to Ralston Corners in
time for breakfast the following morn
ing. This he would do and after at
tending to the details Of the Labor
Bee, he walked down to the depot.
Arriving at Ralston Corners, Tom
hied himself to the hotel for little
breakfast-and then to look up Brown
and Smith.
Now Tom was doing a whole lot of
thinking as to the outcome Of his
visit to the lawyers Office. Down
Market street. All, there it was, No.
BOB, one fight up.
Soon Tom was in the midst Of nu-

SHOULD REFLECT HEATING.

To the People of Colorado:
Those that have families should re-
member kindly the man who has fur
thered the interest for the child labor
law, Mr.. Edward Keating. This same
law that was put thru should at all
times be remembered by every good
and beloved family to take his name
and give him every ballot in our good
state just to show our appreciation for
him and the good work taken up by
him in this case. When you clearly
understand that all corporations in
the country fought against this law
and now try to repeal the same. /
only hope anyone that ever tries to
enact one against the child labor would
drop dead. Those are my good
thoughts and willing at any time to
keep expressing myself for the future
good of humanity's sake. This law
of child labor was started fifty-eight
years ago by dear beloved woman
long time to create law and now some
corporations are behind it to break it's
neck. only hope theirs will be bro
ken first Come, people of our great
and glorious state, that has all the
silver lining and brightness, let us in
the good name keep it and crown it
again with glory. Such things as this
and many other matters pertaining to
humanity should be fought on these
lines to victory. Always preach in
your town or neighborhood the name
of Edward Keating.
Yours truly,
OLD RELIABLE SOL.
