act with pretcnse of compelling "vagrants" to work a certain number of hours each day. When in reality it was passed for the sole purpose of disrap:ing labor orga- nizations. But there's at least some consolation, in the fact; that it's not very soothing to the "self exalted patriots ito learn that the union coal miners of West Virginia will not tolerate the enforcement of the "so called anti-laziness law" when it is being used to intimidate union men.
 There is no patriotism n the war between capital and labor. Not a article!
 The mar who owns the property be he Mongol or Ethiope, Caucasian or Molynesian has only the supreme rights. All wars that have been fought everywhere since this sad world began have been to renew, confer or abolish certain titles to property, and the property so abol- isncd, if abolished, has been trans ferred to others who were still supreme Who in the name of Providence has the better right to the good things of West Virginia, the working people or the capital ists who buy and sell nations and tho people of nations like commo- dities? Who trade and barter the virtues and the vices. the morals and the crimes, the bodies and the souls of human beings for the pal try gain to be obtained thereby? This is in truth a serious matter. !; Consider the enormous buncombe that one used 70 heer concerning American flags flying on the seas, when you could walk on board some of those elegantly built boats flying the House Flag of the Pacific Mail and see them manned by Chinamcn.
 Very few shipping masters have ever asked a man what his nation ality was just so long as he could trim a helm or furl sail ond worked at low wages. No employer ever turned down worker because he was not born on some particular part of this earth just so long as sutfi- cient profits were to be extracted from that particular piece of labor power he purchased. Profits not patriotism is what counts in bus iress, nothing else. It is for the workers that this humbug is perpe- tuated by the bosses that they may be content to have their attention diverted from the real facts at is sue to some particular form of mortal slavery which will paralyze the efforts and be2umb tho encr- gies of the workers struggling for industrial freedom. And tho next tire unions gre attacked for lack of patriotism, just think of the patriotism winch was recently ma infested in West Virginia Legisla- Cure to ma:rtGin the profits, and rights of property against those whose labor Glonc made tt valu- able.

 B. J.-No. That's sensible

 B. Well, the nozscnse lies in
 that very sentence. If the ballot is a rattle, unless there is a phy- sical force back of it, then it must
 be sheer nonsense to bother with
 the ballot at all. Physical force
 will have to be used anyhow. Why no. start with physical force? Whats the sense in frittcring away
 energy on the ballot, when it needs backing? That's nonsense; sheer nonsense, l say. U. S.-And say you made a
 mistake to invite me to that meet

 before you elected the sergeant-at-
 arms?
 B. J.-No; :. but there might be. Ard there has been disorder be-
 fore; and we found it harder to
 elect a sergeant-at-ar:ns after the disorder started than before. We
 simply provided for the emergency.
 There were several people there wEo we know would create a dis
 turbance if they had chance.
 That's why we elected a sergeant at-arms. And we gave them warn
 ing.
 U. S.-And ycu thereby did the
 very thing you claim i3 nonsense,
 when done by the Socialists. If it
 is nonsense to try the ballot first
 before using physical force, then
 it is nonsense to give the disturb CTS warning before firing them out. | B. J. begins to look silly. U. S.-If sense consists in start | ing to fight first and discarding
 the ballot, then sense would have consisted at your meetings in start |

They are always finding some
thing patriotic for us community
folks to do The government has
for some time been telling the far
mers to build more silos and to put
greater acreage under wheat.
And the government S motive is
praiseworthy.
Equally praiseWorthy is the lib
erality with which the government /
commands wage increases nearly !
every time a trade dispute arises.
Railroad employees began getting
theirs before the days of govern |
ment control, and with them the
trend is still upWard-also with
freight rates, to make the increase
possible. The same thing has hap
pened to the lake steamship lines
and to many other branches Of in
dnstry.
But the government don't sh wv
farmers how to compete with in
creaslng wage scales in the towns,
or to keep skilled help on the
farm. Washington has even de-
clared that $4,000 month is e.
nough for a dairyman-a an illum-
mating pronounccment likely to
enlighten dairymen as to the wis
dom Of quitting diaries. The sal
airy would be enough if a dollar
contained as many nickels and rep
resented as many pieces Of pie as
in the good old days. But Just az
present there are many farmers

RecoIlections of Other and Slower Days

for about tenth what this sixty year ago monstrosity cost.
 don't recall clearly many things about domestic management before the Civil war of 1s61-'65. But I well remember how, during that war, the prices of many necessaries rose to such a height that small farmers could not afford to buy them. I recall some of the devices this particular were out of our reach. We made a substitute for the one out of sweet fern and sassafras and some other
 feaves:~ and for the other out of rye and corn, parched in the oven and then ground.
 For meats, we raised our own pigs, our own veal, our own mutton, and our own poultry. A system of neigh borhood sharing developed by which one farmer would, when he butchered | a calf, divide with two or three others, each one returning an equivalent of | veal when he, in turn, slaughtered one
 Same with fresh pork and mutton and l beef
 | We thought then we. couldn't raise wheat, but we did raise rye and corn
 and oats and buckwheat. "Rye'n In- l jun" was the standby for bread. Sugar
 was so scarce and high that we start
 ed beekeeping to get honey and made what maple sugar we could from a i few scattering rock naples in the woods
 Canned vegetables or fruits were unknown, those times, but my mother made many preserves" and my father
 always packed at least one barrel of l choice apples and one of winter pears with dry oats, which kept them fresh and with small decay until March and
 April. As I contemplate the array ot canned corn and peas and beans and l asparagus and spinach and tomatoes
 and berries and peaches and pears an6 duinces, etc, now filling a long cellar shelf, I wonder what some of the old timers would think if they could come | back I suspect they'd wonder if we weren't having altogether too many good things and altogether too handy One thing is borne forcibly upon me as I think over the old times, this an.
 niversary day, i. C., that we're mighty sight better off, even at the worst than our forebears. They suffered privations greater than any we're ask. 1 ed to endure.
 Yet the very fact that we, their de- scendants, are here. is proof that they
 pulled through.
 If We can't do as much and as vel
 and endure as much as they did, il
 must be that we are made of poorer | stuff
