AN INHERENT RIGHT.

Justice said John Adams, is the chief end Of
government and the chief aim of human rela-
tons. Quoting this, Governor Allen Of Kan
sas, declares that the question of the hour is
whether the government shall be regulated by
the people or by ''unionism driven forward by
un-American labor leaders," In Waterbury,
Connecticut, recently strikers waylaid and mis-
handled people who wished to work. Such oc-
currences will not be possible in this country
very long; for neither Samuel Gompers any
other champion Of unionism can defend them.
The right to work is as clear the right to
cease work. AS long as labor organizations Of
fer legitimate advantages to members men will
properly join them. But if they can be main
tanned only by illegal restrictions on the rights
of other citizens they will wither and cease to
exist No argument worth a moments notice
has ever been offered in support of the right

day vanities in women's dress and pre-
dieting dire results upon the future of
the human family have greater pre-
cedent than ground for their fears.
Such predictions are as old os the
written word For instance, turn to
the third chapter of Isaiah and see
how the stern prophet of old inveighs
agains THE foilies Of his time.
Because" he warns, "the daught-
ers of Zion are naughty and walk with
lstretched-fOrth necks and wanton eyes
walking and mincing as they go, and
making tinkling with their feet, in
that day the Lord will take away the
bravery of their tinkling ornaments
about their feet, and their cauls, and
their round tires like the moon, the
chains and the bracelets and the muf-
flers, the bonnets and the ornaments
of the legs, and the headbands and
the tablets ard earrings, the rings
and nose jewels, the changeable suits
of apparel, and the nantes and the
wimples and the crisping pins, the
glasses and the fine linens and the
hoods and the veils.'
True, the time has not yet come
when an angry Deity has taken from
either the daughters OF Zion or their
gentle sisters, all these vanities upon
which the prophet set the indignant
mark of his Just wrath. But surely
there is no man today but that rejoic.

sing-sack waists the girls wear now
to nose jewels.
And after all, while we do not wish
to seem disrespectful to either the
prophets Of old or of today, personally
we do not believe the Lord will ever
take from the daughters of Zion or
their sisters of any other creed or
race this satisfaction and pleasure
in little things like jewels or dresses
or cauls or wimples. For, denied
this, how could they reconcile them
selves to share the earth with those
hulking, childish, lazy, helpless, bully
ing. selfish beings known as men?

TODAY'S BIT OF VERSE
PRECEDENT.


One day through the primeval wood
A calf walked home as good calves should,
But made a trail all bent askew,
crooked trail, all calves do.
Since then three hundred years nave Heo
And infer the calf is dead.
But still he left behind his trail,
And thereby hangs my moral tale.
The trai1 was taken up next day
By lone dog that passed that way
And then wise bell wether sheep
Pursued the trail DER vale and steep,
And drew the flock behind him, too,
AS good bell Nwethers always do.
And from that day, DER hill and glade,
Through those old woods path was MADE
And many men wound in and out, -...
And lodged and turned and bent about,
And uttered words of righteous wrath
Because twas such crooked path;
But still they foIlowed-do not laugh
The first migrations of that calf,
And through the winding wood way stalked
Because he wobbled when he walked.
This forest path became lane
That bent and turned and turned again;
This crooked lane became road
Where many a poor horse with his load
Toiled beneath the burning sun,
And travelled some three miles in one.
And thus century and a half
They trod the footsteps of that calf
The years passed in swiftness fleet,
The road became village street;
And this, before men were aware,
A city's crowded thoroughfare
And the central street was this
Of renowned metropolis!
And men two centuries and half
Trod in the footsteps Of that calf.
Each day hundred thousand rout
Followed the zigZag calf about,
And DER his crooked journey went
The traffic of a continent
A hundred thousand men were led
By calf near three centuries dead. q
They followed still his crooked way,
And lost hundred years day;
For thus such reverence is lent
To well established precedent.
A moral lesson this might teach
Were 1 ordained and called to preach
For men prone to go it blind
Along the calf paths of the mind,
And work away from to sun
To do what other men have done
They follow in the beaten track,
And out and in, and forth and back,
And still their devious course pursue
To keep the path that others do.

MORE PERSONAL VIEWPOINT.


Palmer, acting on his own initiative and wholly
without authority of law, permitted the Louisi-
ana sugar growers to charge eighteen cents a
pound for their product and agreed not to
prosecute them for selling at that price. He
had no shadow of right to do this-no more
authority than he would have to promise the
cotton planters immunity in selling their pro-
duct for dollar pound His action therefore
lis another fragrant case of ''self -willed auto
cratic substitution of a mistaken personal view
point for the obligations of the law Palmer is
thus as culpable as Post, whom he so bitterly
denounced for turning red reprobates loose on
the land in flocks. He is even more blameable,
for as the chief prosecuting officer of the gov
eminent he would naturally be supposed to
know and uphold the law. But the man who is
responsible for both these evils-the distress
ing price of sugar and the failure to deport the
radical desperadoes as required by LAWS the
man in the white house who could control both
Palmer and Post or dismiss them from Office any
moment he saw fit. Is he In touch with his
|subordinates? Is public sentiment allowed to
reach him? Does he know what is going on!
Chicago is going to have the largest hotel in
the world, which news serves as reminder that
the devotion of so many people to hotel and
apartment existence to the consequent decline of
home ifemay help explain the existence of many
Of our social ills. It is sad commentary on our
people that such considerable element should
be so averse to maintaining homes. It is a
symptom Of the decline in true A1nericanism,
for our forefathers were home makers as well
as nation builders and they were as successful
in the former as In the latter. When the home
was in the ascendant in American life, there
was less crime less corruption in politics and a
higher morality. The home owner, even the
home renter, has stronger and more active
sense of responsibility in matters affecting the
public welfare and is therefore more likely to
be good citizen Men and women with homes
to care for have not so much idle time on their
hands as have those living in hotels and apart
ments, and the devil knows full well what idle
time is good for.
