r THE SOUTHERN
SUGAR NAN.

You car depend upon the Wilson
administration or any other Demo-
cratic administration, to stand In
with lhe .~Southern sugar industry.
After q Democratic tariff law had re,
moved the protective duty from al
most everything else, and had set a
date for the removal Of the duty on
sugar, the Democratic Congress re-
pealed the clause that would put sug
al on the free list, thus discriminate
ing In favor Of that industry. Today,
every act Of the administration that
has anything to do with sugar, is In
the interest of the Southern sugar
producer. Republicans believe In
building up American industry, but
they believe In following a defnate
policy that applies to all industries
alike.

TAKE A e START.

Opportunity is knocking loudly at
u community door. 1t is insistent
that 1t be permitted to enter.
The world Is crying for the products
Of the factory and Of the soil. The
demand is greater than the supply.
America q supply that demand
II 1t will.
We can supply our community por.
tion-if we will.
But are we alive TO the marvellous
opportunities that are offered usP Or
are we peacefully sleeping while other
communities skim the cream from
the milk?
Buck up, fellowsl

WHEN OUR EYES ARE OPENED

Collectively speaking, the American
eye is slowly closing to the pat of
honor, and right, and justice.
To the n Of greed, it Is a flaming
magnet which seeks TO draw every
thing Of value within its graspinR
folds. ~
The insane desire to get rich quick.
lv has deadened the pulse Of the ma.
tion, until civic and commercial vir'
tue possess about the potency Of q
long dead jellyish.
This is especially true since the
country plunged headlong into q sea
Of wild specializing and profiteering
following u entry into the world
war.
Time was when we acknowledged
that all men had rights which were
to be considered and respected.
But today most men accord them
only such IS do not interfere with
their own selfish ends.
The craving for gold and it's result
ant power is destroying the refined
sensibilities Of mankind until the
whole country Is becoming debauched
by the curse of the yellow metal.
But some day our eyes will be open.
ed-suddenly, rurely and re~lentlessly
We will face internal conditions the
like of which no loyal American has
yet dreamed.
If the trend continues downward,
the soul of American manhood will
be wallowing In a mire Of insatiate
greed and debauchery from which
only the most courageous will ever
emerge in any semblance OF honor snd
purity in this life.
Our government will face tho task
Of restoring law and order In the
midst OF bedlam and wholesale dis.
regard Of human rights.
The editors If the country press,
whose convictions are never smother
ed under the muzzle of corporate
greed, have long warned Washington
or the ever increasing tide which
flows only toward destruction. and
they are sounding a fresh warning &C.
day.
Shall this warning be heededq
Or will the government and congress
Just pussyfoot along until the proud
head OF the American eagle Ii lower
ed To the putrid one Of the buzzardl
Tosiavthis warning may sound pess

GLASS BOTTLE BLOWERS

Regular meeting of Branch No. "a
was held last Sunday afternoon, ana
the fact that the first meeting in May
is the time designated by the constl-
tuition to elect delegates to the annual
convention, and there being spirited
contest on, accounts for the large at
tendance at this meeting. There were
four nominees for delegates to the
convention, and two to be elected,
which resulted in the election of Pres.
VIM. Dover and Fin. Sec'y Theo.
Paige.
Four applicants for membership
were obligated and declared members
of Branch No. "a.
The recording secretary received a
petition from the Ohio State Fedora
tion of Labor for a referendum vote
on the Miller bill, which was circu-
lated during the meeting for sigma
lures of the members. The Miller
bill which was passed at present sea-
sion of the Ohio State Legislature over
the veto of Gov. Cox, if permitted to
become a law, will demoralize the ao-
ministration of the Workman's Com
penation law, and all of the depart
ments of the state whose duty it is to
administer and enforce the labor laws
of Ohio, by making the Industrial
Commission and the heads of the de-
partments, a part of the political
spoils system, and will aid the LA
bility insurance interests to secure
control of the Industrial Commission,
thereby impairing the administration

Delegates to Trades Assembly made
announcement of the labor memorai
service to be held at high school audi
torium on the 3rd Sunday in May.
