MOONEY MEETING
nings)

There was mooney protest meet
ing" at the Orpheum last Friday even
ing. Many who attended from curl
osity to hear the Bolshevik firebrand
Maud McCreary, of Victor Berger's
paper, were disappointed as she did not
appear. There was a good audience
for rainy night. The meeting was
under labor union auspices and Gil
bert Thompson, alderman, deputy clerk
of court and erstwhile socialist candi-
date for congress presided-and filed
IN before and after the regular speak
ers, VIM Coleman, of Milwaukee and
Mr.. Cooney of the international Mach
inists union.
They gave the usual radical labor
speeches and urged the taking of a
referendum of union labor on the
question of series of five day general
strikes to compel the setting free of
Tom Mooney, who is serving life
sentence in California upon conviction
of participation in the preparedness
parade bomb outrage a few years ago.
1t happens that because one of the
principle witnesses against Mooney
later turned out to he "a perjurer the
presiding judge who sentenced him,
two federal investigating bodies and
many other persons worthy of atten-
ton have urged that justice requires
new trial regardless of belief in his
nnilt or Innocence

LAW ENFORCEMENT MEETING

Forty-six citizens attended a com
plimentaJy dinner at the Williams
House last Friday as guests of the Law
Enforcement League. Ex-Gov. Frank
Willis of Ohio, a prohibitonst of
celebrity, was the main attraction. He
spoke of law enforcement generally
but with particular attention to the
new prohibition amendment to the
L. 5. constitution.
The gist of the argument of Gov.
Willis was that prohibition is now in
the United States constitution. 1t is a
fundamental law ofthis land, and it
was put there by the win of the peo-
pie TO defy it is to defy democracy
and encourage bolshevism, more ter
rible menace than war Whether the
individual likes it or not, he must
abide by it while it is there, if he hopes
to preserve liberty. Least of all can
union labor defy it. To defy it is to
oppose collective bargaining. Personal
liberty and collective bargaining are
exact oppostes.
IF the rights which union labor has
won by generation Of hard labor are
to be safe, then those laws must be OBJ
served in spirit and not evaded by
technicalities
Gov Willis is brilliant speaker and
made profound impression. i. D.
French, secretary Of the local branch
opened the meeting and Rev, Whitstl
of the local NJ. Il. church presided
Pledge cards passed around were quite
generally signed.

Inc men ana women VINO are max
ing the Americans OF tomorrow are be-
ing treated with less consideration than
the ianitors who sweep out the build
ngs in which they are employees; they
are earning on the average, less than
the wages given to the scrubwomen
employed in the public buildings of the
United States Government. Normal
school graduates receive less salary
than street sweepers; high school prin-
cipalS and superintendents less than
section foremen; country school teach
ers less for instructing the farmers
children than he pays his hired man to
feed his hogs.
In certain town of Illinois, for in
stance, the average wages of fifteen
miners for one month was $2l7, while
the average monthly salary of fifteen
teachers in the same town was $50. In
other town miner, who, by the way,
was an enemy alien, drew more than
81, 700 last year, while the salary of
the high school principal in the same
town was $765.
No wonder there are fifty thousand
vacancies in the teaching forces of the
schools. No wonder the ranks are be-
ing filed with weak men and with inn
mature women who merely use the pro
fession as u stepping-stone to some
thing better. No wonder there are
thirty thousand teachers in the United
States who have had no schooling be
yond the eighth grammar grade. Small
wonder, indeed, that seven million OF
our school children are being trained
by teachers, mere boys and girls them
selves, who have had no professional
education whatever.
Never has there been a more urgent
need for high-minded, great-hearted,
splendidly trained, 100 per cent Amer
lean instructors to drive home the
vital lessons that these times hold.
Never had the future of the nation
been so clearly committed into the
hands of the teachers. And yet thous-
ands of men and women Of ability who
would prefer to teach are reluctantly
leaving their chosen calling, forced by
tie hard necessities Of their very eX-
istence,
The teachers ask no largess at the
hands of fortune. They enter their
profession for service, not riches. But
they invest years and money in prep
aration for their lifewOrk and the
knowledge they gain is shared with
others who themselves use it to their
own profit. Teachers, then, by every
right and in all justice expect re-
turn that will permit them and theiI
dependents to live decently and in com
fort.
Let euch community invest in schools
so that it may thereby invest in
trained manhood and womanhood thai
can play their part in the great perioC
of rebuilding and reconstruction tina
lies before us. Let each communit!
set for its goal, as far as Is practic
able, minimum wage Of at leas
81 900 year for the teachers o
America. This would cost the natioi
perhaps as much as we spent SO glori
ously In but one week of the great war

Died in this town on the 10Th inst,
Mrs. Emma S. Turpin, aged 4s years.
The deceased was one of the earliest
settlers of this place, having made it
her home for the last fifteen years.
She had been sick but few days when
her death took place, which was quite
unexpected to a large circle of friends,
who will miss her company and friend
ship, but who live in the hope that
their loss is her gain. The funeral
services were held in the Episcopal
church, where very able discourse
was delivered by Rev. Mr.. Dooley.

ITEMS FROM THE PILOT FILES
FIFTY YEARS AGO

The sum of $4,000 has been appro-
priated to complete the harbor at this
place, and which sum will insure one
of the best harbors on the lakes, for
the reason that it will be both wide and
deep. With the harbor completed, we
see no reason why the growth of Mani
towoc should not be onward until here
shall stand as fine city as ever topped
a hill.

On Monday night last, about l
o'clock a fire was discovered in the
building occupied as a store and dwell
ing by p w. Weiboldt, and situated on
the corner of Washington and Main
streets, on the south side of the river.
The engines were promptly on hand,
but the fire had reached such headway
that nothing effective could be done to
prevent the destruction of the build
ing together with most of its contents
1t is not known positively how the fire
originated, but it is supposed to have
been caused by a defect in the Chin
ney. Mr.. Weiboldt and family were
absent at the time, and did not reach
home in time to save any of their fur
niture or household effects, but most
of the goods in the store were saved in
damaged condition. The entire loss
is about $4,000; insured for $4,000.

On Saturday morning last a sad ac-
cident occurred, by which a young
child lost its life from effects of being
burned. On the morning named, as
Mrs. Woodbridge, wife of DR.. Wood
bridge (now absent) was attending to
some household duties in the basement
of her residence, she was startled by
the cry of her infant child which she
had left upstairs, and upon reaching
the place where it was, she discovered
it to be in flames. 1t seems that the
clothing of the child had ignited from
the stove during the absence of the
mother and although everything posi-
BILE was done to save it, the little suf-
ferer fingered for about six hours,
when death put an end to its suffer
