He Pays an Income

Shawano, Wis, Oct. TIA book
agent from large city, who visited
Shawano recently, probably would not
be surprised if he runs into George
Washington or Christopher Columbus,
before he leaves this district.
Said agent called at the home of
Henry Washburn. Two little girls
were playing in the front yard.
"Is your mamma in?" said the
agent. sweetly.
"No, she's gone to visit my grand
mother" was the response.
"Where is your grandmother"
"She-my grandma libes at Pickett
but just now she is with her mother y
with whose mother" roared the
stranger.
"My grandma is with her mother,
/ said," was the rather tart response.
Then came the awful shock.
'Does your great grandmother usu-
ally live alone?" was the agents next
question.
"No, she takes care Of her father.
His eyes are getting poor and she
reads to him.
The solicitor all but tainted. When
he returned to the business section
he made inquiries. This is the infor-
nation he obtained:
Marjorie and Mildred Washburn are
daughters Of Mr.. and Mrs. Henry
Washburn, of Shawano. Mrs. Wash.

people are further from any idea of
attack on this government, no people
would or have gone farther to pro-
tect that government"
I'VE hear much of the struggle be-
tween capital and labor" he said,
looking about the conference room.
What is capital? 1t is this table,
that chandelier, coal, wool, sugar, and
SO forth. They are dead things,
inanlmate things, material things
the things that are subject to barter.
''lf the old conception of labor and
capital still prevailed, we would find
women working in the mines and
there giving birth to children; we
would find children working IA hours
a day.
why this anxiousness to have
unions of workers Incorporated? SO
as to re-establish the ancient guild
system? SO that the government
step in and rob the workers.
Upon what pretext is this for
mula proposed ? In order that we
might be MIXED in damages of all
advantage that might otherwise ac-
crue to.us? | do not attempt to say
that unions have not sometimes VOL
ated contracts, but not oftener than
the employers have violated agree
ments with workers.
Loree Answers.
Referring to the collective bar
gaining resolution before the confer
ence, he continued
"If you wanted to deny the labor
ing people of this country this as
|piration, you should have denied
their grandfathers and grandmoth-
ers a common school education.
"You should have started genera
tions ago, not now. We at least
know our rights and the day has
come when labor dares to assert
those rights. If we wish to go Oh
forward in progress as a homogen-
sous nation, working together for
one great cause, you must give labor
the right to association, to be heard,
Ito be represented in the councils of
industry and of the nation by such
Representatives as we chose, whether
of legal knowledge or not"
When Mr.. Gompers concluded, Mr.
Loree said that he had referred in
advertently to the war labor board
ence board as the body from which

sions during the war.
II do not see how my statements
could be construed as reflection on
organized labor" Mr.. Loree added,
: 'but in case it has been so constru-
ed, wish to express my profound re-
! greet. The members of organized
, labor entertain patriotic sentiments
| equal to any Of u.s."
John Spargo, a member of the
public group, broke into the discus
, sion to assert: "The right Of collec-
| tive bargaining was won in the Unit
ed States many years ago, and no &C
ton this conference can take can de-
prive labor Of that right
Mr.. Spargo pleaded with the dele
, gates to heed the warning sounded in
Russia and to realize the justice Of
: the plea placed before the confer
ence by the members of the labor

Poles Compiling
List of BOlshevik
Minsk ATROCITIES

Warsaw, Sept. 1O.-(By mail. y
Inc Polish government is compiling
the story of the atrocities committed
under the Bolshevik region in the
city of Minsk, now occupied by the
Poles. The latest, brought by an
american Red Cross worker, who has
just returned from a relief assign
ment in that newly occupied city,
concerns the murder of woman
hospital assistant who was rash
enough to express the hope that con-
dltlons would improve when the town
fell to the Poles.
The director of the hospital in
question, smarting under an Hide
served rebuke administered to him by
a surly official of the Red regime,
warned the latter that the arrival OF
the Poles would bring change for
the better. For this he was deport-
ca to Smolensk. His woman assis-
tant, who ventured little further in
expressing her opinion, was shot IN
70 grave on the dawn before the
taking of the city by the Polish
arm Y.

Rats Yearly Cause
5000, 900, 1000 Damage

London, Oct. 16.--Rats do a yearly
damage in the United Kingdom of
5000 900, or nearly five dollars
per head of the population, according
to generally accepted figures. The
prewar estimate Of this damage was
$75,000,000. The seriousness of the
situation has resulted in the inaugu-
ration of country wide campaign,
headed by the Board of Agriculture,
for the destruction of the pests.

boast such loyalty from it's laboring
classes and that no other nation in

of free assemblage and free express

FORGOT THE BABY

We do not believe there was in the
last Legislature of the State of Kan
sas, a single member who would not
gladly sacrificed his entire herd of
cattle, hogs, bees, or any other stock,
were it required to save the life of
the baby, or any other member of his
household. Yet in the face of all of
this family devotion, he voted $4,000
for the health of his hogs, cattle and
bees, and but $1,000 for the babies.
The health and life of his own flesh
and blood must have looked insignifi-
cent indeed when placed in compe-
tition with the denizens of the hog lot.
The infant in the cradle; the sweet,
chubby, happy, prattling, smiling,
helpless baby. The devoted mothers

$4,000 for the preservation of his
health, as against $1,000 for the
baby's physical welfare, even the bees
were given $4,000, one thousand more
than was subscribed for the health of
the sweetest member of the human
family No wonder Dr. DeVilbliss,
head of the department. of child

the returned soldier?


That the soldiers will control the
affairs of the United States in both a
business and political way for the next
forty years or more, does not mean
that mi1itarism will prevail and con-
troll The two or three million soldier
voters will hold the balance of power
in all walks of life and which every
way they vote, the affairs of the ma
ton will be directed that way The
fact that any candidate for Office, civil,
political or religious, was soldier in
the world war viii awaken a sympa-
thetic response in the minds of all
other soldiers and if he is worthy at
all he will receive their almost solid
support. Moreover, there are plenty
of plain citizens who stayed at home
who will vote for soldier in prefer
ance to anyone else The soldier vote
controlled following the civil war but
there was on miIitarisnn. Neither will
soldier control following the world
war mean mi1itarism.
