If the Chicago Federation Of Labor
was seeking a way to "get in bad" it
could not have found a better one than
in its action indorsing the work of
Emma Goldman and Berkman and an
nouncing its opposition to the depor-
tation of aliens who are members of
any union affiliated with the Amer
lean Federation of Labor. No such
brazen demand for the exemption of
any class from punishment for
crime was ever heard, at least in
America. The decent citizens of
America, who after all form the vast
majority in the country, have shown
plainly that they are tired of the al
len radicals and their. vicious activi-
ties, and the sooner union labor rec
ognizes that fact, the better for 1t.

A recent example of the work of the

Hoboken with IL members of the

and other crimes. The troubles. which
broke out on the eastward trip, were

Great Britain will never consent to
separation of Ireland from the en-
pire. but is willing to give 1t the larg-
est possible measure of self-govern-
ment and to give this at once. Such
was the statement OF premier Lloyd
George to parliament. and he then
proceeded TO give an outline of the
home rule bill which the government
will introduce when parliament reas-
sembles. The measure will create w
legislatures somewhat on the Amer
lean model. one for the southern part
of Ireland and the Roman Catholic
part Of Ulster, N the other for
Protestant Ulster. Above them will be
the council of Ireland, elected by the
two legislatures. The latter bodies
haze the power to combine at any
time without the consent of the Brit
ish parliament. All powers not re-
served to the imperial British pnrlia-
ment are given to the legislatures.
These reserved powers include peace
and war. foreign affairs, the army and
navy, defense, reason. trade outside
of Ireland. navigation. wireless and
cable, coinage, trade marks. light
houses, n the appointment of the
higher judiciary until the legislatures
agree on a plan for the appointment
of judges. Also reserved are the in
come tax, customs and excise, but
the excise may be reclaimed by Ire
land by agreement of the legislatures.
Ireland is to collect all of the taxes
and retain all but a fair contribution
to the imperial expenses.

Admiral Sims, who commanded
Americas nava fighting forces in the
war. started what may develop into
u real navy scandal when he declined
TO accept the Distinguished Service
medal awarded him by Secretary of
the Navy Daniels. The admiral. in
his letter to the secretary, accused the
latter of injustice and discrimination
In making up h list of those to re-
ceive medals n navy crosses. and
expressed his indignation at the giving
of the medal to swivel chair officers
and to officers who lost their vessels
Mt sea under circumstance that might
not be to their credit. while 1t was
refused to others who displayed great
bravery n g%allantry in combat.
Many of the latter. recommended for
the decoration by Admiral Sims and
approved by the board of awards,
were cut from the list by Mr.. Daniels.
The admiral said such injustice would
go far toward destroying the morale
of the navy and he did not wish to
c~ountenance 1t by accepting the medal
awarded to him.

basis for the charge of favoritism,
that he was determined to decorate

is not vet closed. 1t was said in
Washington that the admlral's action
was very likely to bring about a con-

Addressing the chamber of deputies,
the French premier made the first
authoritative statement concerning the
conference in London. The two prin-
cipal decisions made, he said. were
not to make peace and not to COM
promise with the soviet government
of Russia. The allies were deter
mined, he added to be the allies of
all peoples attacked by bolshevism and
would maintain a barbed wire around
Russia, notably by aiding the Poles,
Roumanians and others along the
frontiers. He expressed full conf
dence in the Anglo-Franco-American
pacts and predicted a solution of the
Fiume difficulty. The chamber there
upon gave the government a vote Of
confidence, 1853 to II.

Delay of the Germans in signing the
protocol rendered futile the hopes of
the supreme council that peace would
be proclaimed by Christmas. Though
the council had indicated that it would
lessen Its demands for reparation for
the scuttling of the interned German
war vessels if the Germans could
prove that they could not turn over the
material required, Won Lersner, chief
of the German delegation, felt it nee
essary to carry the amended terms
to Berlin for submission to the gov
eminent. 1t was announced in Lon
don that Premier Lloyd George would
go to Paris this week to confer with
Clemenceau.

The house of IN as a whole
received the scheme with approval,
but there is little hope that it will
please any of the Irish factions. In
that fact, it is said, lies the best
nance of its success. Lloyd George
took occasion to say what he thought
of the recent attempt to assassinate
Viscount French. lord lieutenant of
Ireland. He declared it was not only
despicable and dastardly, but one of
the most foolhardy political crimes
in history.

Really, the Fiume dispute seems at
this writing to be on the eve of set
Element. The Italian cabinet has ap-
proved an agreement with D'Annun-
zio on the basis of proposals made by
the government. This. it was report
ed, was hat Italy should keep in its
possession the whole of the armistice
line, reaffirming the right of Fiume
to decide Its own fate and assisting
it financially to resume its activities
under the regime of n free port. The

city. 1t was said that Captain DAN

this result and that he departed from
the city.
AS for Russia, the ~bolsheviki seem
to be getting along very well in n mil
itary way. They have beaten Petlura
and his Ukrainian army, and are said
to have cut off the retreat of Deni-

way of escape is into Roumania. The
Esthonians and the bolsheviki, 1t is
announced. agreed On the questions
of frontiers n military guarantees.

served to whet the interest of the investing world, and it is an obvious matter of general knowledge and be- lief that Mexico presents the largest field and the most attractive oppor- tunities, considering availability and other economic conditions, for min ing investment that exists today.
 There is evidence that the financial world is disposed to accept the new Mexican government at it's word and to judge it favorably from it's acts. There is an expectation that the American and other foreign govern ments whose nationals are chiefly concerned in the rejuvenation of the Mexican mining industry, will arrive at such an understanding with the Mexican authorities as will assure the continued development and prog ress of the industry under conditions that are equitable and advantageous to all concerned.
 It is hoped and expected that it will not again be necessary to write chapter concerning the decadence of Mexican mining for political req sons during this generation or for generations to come, because the de- velopment of Mexico's mining re- sources is matter of supreme inn portance to Mexico and of direct con cern to the United States and to oth-- CT foreign nations.

Her System

The young mother was worried over her youngster. Sometimes I think there is something the matter with his ears," she said, "for he does not answer me when I speak to him; and often he doesn't seem to under stand that I've given him any direc- tions. I wonder if I should take him to an ear specialist
 The mother of four grinned. "I've found just such deafness among my children" she said, "but I didn't let it worry me any"
 "What did you do for it?" inquired the young mother, anxiously.
 "Why, I just spanked 'em all around" was the reply, land they heard beautifully for several months after that. ."-Springfield Union.

MAKES HIS OWN, WITH
 HIS OWN; WON'T AGAIN
Prescott, Dec. 12.

Prescott, Dec. 12.
 The raisins are mine, that sugars mine and the peaches are mine; why in thunder can't,I do what I like with my own property?" That is what "Tennessee" Smith, 75, otherwise Thomas H. Smith, pioneer of Arizona, demanded when arraigned on a charge of making his own liquor. For years he made his own on his com fortable ranch at Ash Fork, and no one ever questioned it. He had not read the newspapers much, and did not know anything about the Volstead law or any other prohibition regula- tion. He did not see how any law could be passed to take away the right of a man doing what he pleas ed with his own property provided he didn't hurt anybody else.
 The court decided that it would sus- pend judgment for two years while the pioneer promised on his part that if that was the law he would obey it.

FINDS DAUGHTER
 WITH CYPS|ES

DOUGLAS, Dec. 12-After seven years of untiring search Eli Miguel of Charlottesville, S. C., has reccov- cred his daughter from band of gypsies with the aid of the local au- thorities and the department of jus tice.He found her a mother with a child by her gypsy husband and with them has returned to his home.
 Seven years ago, Miguel lived with his daughter in South Carolina, where he was horse buyer for the govern ment, and the little girl, then twelve years old was studying the violin. Then Spera Antonio, a gypsy, came into their life. Presently he disap- peared with the child. The father aroused all the Federal authorities and pursued every clew. He could find no trace.
 ~ About three months ago he learned of a band of gypsies en route to Cal- ifornia in automobiles Securing a leave of absence he put off on the trail. Meanwhile the department of justice learned of a band on it's way
 from Tombstone to Douglas. Fred J. Wright, detective of Phoenix, was sent by wire from the father to Doug las. He spread net of local police to prevent the band from crossing in- to Mexico, and himself came to Doug las. Constable-elect Billy Fourr and Deputy Sheriff Sam Boucher and Ser geant Townsend took up the case here, when the father arrived. They rounded up the band and tool; it to the police station.
 The girl was with the band.

Mining was indeed at low ebb at the beginning of the Diaz regime in Mexico in 1876. The inauguration of the stable government and liberal foreign policies by Diaz and the con- struction of government promoted railroads was the occasion and incen- tive for a new era in Mexican min ing. Beginning about 1876, Ameri- can capital was first attracted to mining in Mexico, at the outset nat uraly on the states nearest the bor- der, and soon throughout the whole country, anticipating or following projection of the trunk line railroads
 The progress and development of the American interest in mining in Mexico need not be told here in de- tail. Operations were undertaken in practically all parts of the republic on an effective scale and with mod ern improvements. Data compiled in 1907 shows that the American invest ments at that time were in excess of billion dollars, which of course, in cluded the railroad investments, which represent more than half the amount. The investment in mines was $223,000,OOO and in smelters $26,5O0,O00. The oil industry, which then was in it's beginning, is credit ed with only $15,000,00O, subsequent ly enormously enhanced. The in vestments in mining and other in terests, of other nations, from the same compilation, were, British, $43,6OO,OO0; French, $5,OOO ,0OO; other foreigners $S,3OO,OOO. In contrast with these vast sums stands the Mexican. investment in mining, ST. 5OO,OOO, in smelters, $7,2O0,OOO.
 These figures are, of course, not subject to Sofficial confirmation but
 they are based on data cotfipiled by the writer in collaboration With oth- CT engineers intimately and long fa- miliar with Mexican matters. It was also estimated about 1910, that the American and British interests together actually controlled and oper- ated about 90 per cent of the going mines of Mexico, an estimate not, however, credited by official Mexico.
 The statistics of the producers of Mexican mining, which are available in official and other compilations show effectively the results of the American and foreign operations in Mexico, during and up to the period when political conditions again be- came unsatisfactory and history, as cited in the preceding paragraphs re- peated itself, as is its wont.
 It is needless to repeat the events of the last decade in Mexican af- fairs, as concern the state and pro- gress of mining development. It is true that some of the larger con- panies have continued to operate as conditions permitted and that there has been fair maintenance of out put in some of the districts, but for long interegnum, there has been no new American capital invested in Mexican mining, or in fact any for eign capital, with the result that to- day, under the new order of things, Mexico presents a made to order sit- uation, for new mining investments and new mining development.
 The period of exclusion of foreign capital from Mexico, has effectively |

FAIR TODAY AND TOMORROW; < FRESH SOUTHEAST WINDS
PASTOR TALKS ON SUBJECT OF MARRIAGE

A special musical programme by the New London Symphony orchestra and the first of series of nine 'fireside sermons by Rev Arthur F. Purkiss featured the Sunday evening service at the Central Baptist church. The New London or chestra rendered several numbers during the service with exceptional ability on the part of the dozen musicians com prising the orchestra.
 The topic chosen by Rev Mir Purkiss for his first sermon of the freside series was God and Marriage. When a man can put the gospel at the heart of every thing he does-that is religion, said Rev Mir. Purkiss The happiness and joy of the home depends entirely on the relation ship of the husband and wife. The young man can't afford to have a gri who can't and won't work It Is fine to have home. but if you don't get the all. It is no disgrace not to get mar ried. Single blessedness is better than double purgatory.
 The young woman who wants to get married wants to put herself in proper condition to be married. The young | man likewise. It is fine for hus- band to have tastes in common, sports
 in common and social engagements ir l common. I think the husband and wife should have religion in common. I have 1 serious doubts as to whether a Christian | should marry non-Christian. Husband and wife should be Christians together
 One out of every seven are divorced and there are more than one out of every seven who wish they were divorced. Wher ! there is so much chance of shipwrecl | why not have the guidance of God? MeI and women, you can't get along withou | Him.
