A MODERN FANTASY.

The lights glittered brightly in the
spacious cafe. At tables on which
never a thin-stemmed glass sparkled
with its bubbles Of joy sat disconso-
late couples, whining and dining.
Clouds of tobacco smoke, tho only re-
naming dissipation the law permitted,
hung low throughout the room. Here
and there walters passed to the ladies
the assorted cigars, while gentlemen
putting pipes with huge bowls mixed
their favorite blends Of tobacco in
cocktail shakers.
Off in an alcove sat q bosed young
habituee, her silkily sinuous dress pro-
fusely covered with glittering sequins
and war. taxes. One jeweled hand
lazily licked into the chicken q Ia
king the last of her perfumed cigar
cites. Hastily her escort rolled her
another and placed it between her car
mine lips. She puffed once-then rose
and flung the lumpy, ill-maae thing
blackjack in his false face.
"That's not the kind that mother
used to make,' she shrieked.-ndge.

which the people once had direct and
actual interest, but who now have
nothing but befogged memory Of said
interest.
Rates have gone up and service has
gone down. Duluth, city committed
to public ownership Of public utilities,
finds itself dangerously near utter
helplessness in its power to save rea-
sonable telephone rates to the public
and, perhaps, utter helplessness as to
acquiring, owning and operating q mu'
nicipal telephone system.
The city commissioners are doing alb
solutely nothing 80 far IS their con-
satusnts can sec. With the somnolent,
scheming, snarling samuelson, with all
his entanglements and poverty Of intel:
lect for city attorney, perhaps nothing
could be done, even If this complacent
and mediocre administration tried.
The people should mako their voices
heard to an extent that some honest,
capable and energetic lawyer viii be
employed to see II the people have any
rights left In the Zenith company, as
against the Bell company. Quick,
sharp, decisive action is imperative.
If the absorption Of the Zenith COM
pany and its prospective liquidation
have not gone too far, then the Zenith
telephone system should be condemned,
taken over and operated by the city,
with rates barely above cost and with
in the reach Of thousands who really
cannot afford the present sky-high rates
of the greedy, monopolistic Bell COM
pany.

WEALTH AND LABOR.

Robert Burns, the Scottish poet
who lived at the time of our revo-
luton, was one of the world g fore
most champions of democracy. He
had the knack of producing un-
answerable arguments Of which
the following stanzas are typical:
See yonder poor, o'erlabor'd wight
So abject, mean, and vile,
Who begs a brother of the earth
To give him leave to toll;
And see his lordly fellow worn
The poor petition spurn,
Unmindful, though a weeping wife
And helpless offspring mourn.
If I'm designed yon lording's slave
By natures law design ID
Why was an Independent wish
Fer planted in my mindf
If not why am I subject to
His cruelty or scorne
Or why has man the will and power
To make his fellow mournf

THE PRESENT CRISIS,

Count me o FER earth g chosen heroes
they were souls that stood alone
While the men they agonized fo,
hurled the contumelious stone:
Stood serene and down the future saw
the golden beam incline
To the side of perfect justice, mas
tered by their faith divine,
BY one man g plain truth to manhood
and to Gods supreme design.
Then to side with Truth is noble when
we share her wretched crust,
Ere her cause brings fame and profit.
and tits prosperous to be just;
Then it is the brave man chooses.
while the coward stands aside,
Doubling in his abject spirit til HE
Lord is crucified,
And the multitude make virtue of the
faith they had denied.
For humanity sweeps onward; where
today the martyr stands,
On the morrow crouches Judas with
the silver in his hands;
Far in front the cross stands ready
and the cracking fagots burn,
While the hooting mob Of yesterday
in silent awe return
To CLEAN up the scattered ashes into
History's golden urn.
They have rights who dare maintain
them; we are traitors to our sires
Smothering in their holy ashes Free
dom's new-lit altar fires;
Shall we make their creed our jailerF
Shall we in our haste slay,
From the tomb Of the old prophets
steal the funeral lamps away
To light up the martyr-fagots round
the prophets Of today?
