SAGE TEA KEEPS
YOUR HAIR DARK
When Mixed With Sulphur 1t Brings
Back Its Beautiful Lustre
at Once

Gray hair, however handsome, de-
notes advancing age. We all know
the advantages of youthful appear
ance. Your hair is your charm. 1t
makes or mars the face. When it
fades, turns gray and looks streaked,
just a few applications Of Sage Tea
and Sulphur enhances it's appearance
hundred-fold.
Don't stay gray! Look young.
Either prepare the recipe at home or
get from any drug store bottle OF
HWyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound" which is merely the old-timee
recipe improved by the addition OF
other ingredients. Thousands of folks
recommend this ready-to-use prepar-
alton because it darkens the hair
beautifully, besides, no one can pos
sibly tell, as it darkens so naturally.
and evenly You moisten a sponge or
soft brush with it, drawing this
through the hair, taking one small
strand at time. BY morning the
gray hair disappears; after another
application or two, its natural color
is restored and it becomes thick,
glossy and lustrous, and you appear
years younger.

MUSIC is PROMISED

Lackawanna, N. Yin a public
statement Corporation Counsel Weiss,
who was recently elected, says he will
prove that the previous city ad-
ministration was dominated by the
Lackawanna Steel company in the in
terest of no one but the steel COM
pany and "its paid lackeys."
He charges that an attempt was
made during the steel strike to assist
the steel company by provoking a
riot in the hope that the governor
would send state troopers to this
place, and by brutality take the heart
out of the foreigners" and so break
the strike.
81 never yet heard of the state
troopers or state police being used
for anything else except to break
strikes" said the coropration counsel.

WANTED---22O WORKERS AND FARM
ERS IN CONGRESS

There are nearly 90,O00,000 wage
earners and farmers in the United
States. Yet they have not more than
a score of representatives in both
branches of Congress.
In a real democracy the workers
and the farmers would control the
Government.
The workers and farmers should
have $50 men in Congress if they had
their share. The lawyers alone have
260 members. The bankers have
many times their quota, as have the
packers and the food gamblers. The
steel trust, the sugar trust, the lum-
ber trust, the mine owners, are more
than adequately represented.
Labor and the farmers control the
governments of Australia, Denmark,
the Province of Ontario. They elect
the ministry, they make laws for
those who produce. Labor is coming
into power in Great Britain as we'll
Labor and the farmer will continue
to be the Cinderellas of politics in
this country so long as they are will
ing to sit in the chimney corner.
They have the votes, they have the
power, and by the very spirit of dem
ocracy they should control this Gov
ernment of ours.

Privilege controls this Congress; it

a way to do this by adding a sales

Trust Pension Plan
Unequal to Unions

Washington-The annual report Of
the United States steel and Carnegie
pension fund just issued, and the last
report of the International Typo
graphical union pension fund shows
the difference between philanthrophy
and the organized workers theory of
"help yourself"
The trade union fund is maintained
by each member paying an assess
ment of one-half of l per cent on his
earnings while the trusts pension
plan depends on the good will Of the
employer.
The report of the union shows that
it pays higher rate, with less years
of service and with a lower age aver
age than that of the trust. Leading
differences between the unions sys-
tenn and the trusts are:
Average monthly pension paid by
the trust since 1911 has been $21.55.
The union had paid $5 week since
1909. Starting with the first of this
year, the rate is $6 a week.
The trust and affiliates has 2,94O
pensioners out of approximately
100000 employees. The union has
1,483 pensioners out of a membership
of $4,000.
Last year the trusts pensions
amounted to $733,707. The unions
pension expenditures was $337,330.
Average age of trust pensioners
is 1854 years. The unions average
age is 64.94 years.
Average length of service of trust
pensioners is 1922 years. Amy mem
ber Of the union is eligible to the pen,
sion if he or she has been in continu-
Gus good standing for 20 years, is not
less than 60 years of age and is un-
able to secure sustaining employ
ment.
The trusts pension is awarded at
the will of the board in charge of this
fund. The unions pension can be de-
manded as right by any eligible
member.

Forced Arbitration
Opposed by GOmpers

New York-Compulsory arbitration
in any form violates the principles of
American liberty and will be resisted
by labor, declared President Gompers
at the annual meeting of the national
civic federation.
The A. F. of L. executive said there
were numerous instances to prove
that while many employers are fair,
"as a rule, that which the employer
comedies is that which the insistent
demands of the workers press home
upon him. And that is true not only
in private employment and public
utilities, but is equally true with gov
ernment employees, whether they be
of federal, state or national govern
ments.
"Look at any country on the face
of the globe and you will find that
the country in which there are fewer
strikes, or no strikes at all-you will
find in that country the lowest stand
ard of life as compared with any
other people or any other country.
You will find that industrial depend
ence, servility and docility exist in
the countries where there are no
strikes. You will find in these coun-
tries the most backward, the least
development in industry and COM
merce: you will find in these less
civic pride of the people in and for
their country: you will find impo-
tency rampant in the country, either
for its own cohesion or for interna-
tional defense.
"In these countries you will find
less civilization than in any of the
countries in which strikes occur. If
the absence of strikes meant indus
trial and commercial prosperity; if
the absence Of strikes meant the in
dependence of country, its progress,
it's wealth, then China ought to stand
at the head of civilization"

British UniOniSt
Discusses America

Observation-Disclosures chatter
in America does not impress William
A. Appleton, writing in American
Federationist, current issue. The
writer is secretary of the British Cen
eral Federation of Trade Unions. His
last visit to this country was as a
delegate to the international labor
conference, established by the peace
treaty.
'In estimating the future of Amer
ica," says the British trade unionist,
sit is always necessary to take into
consideration the extraordinary pow
er of the national spirit and the ex-
tent of the agricultural basis.
american trade unionists will go
a long ways to improve wages and
conditions, but they will not go an
inch to hurt America.
Tourists who only see New York,
Chicago, Detroit and other cities
where the alien population happens to
be numerous, sometimes dream of
successful revolutions, but their
dreams are not likely to materialize.
"a buoyant, confident, all-pervading
Americanism exists almost every
where. 1t was the love of America
which feeds the passion for self-edu-
cation and leads to the erection of
buildings and monuments such as no
other nation possesses. Sometimes
these buildings and monuments lack
qualities which Europeans prefer, but
they never lack the expression of
force and power and nationality.
"This great nation is divided into
48 sovereign states, each jealous of
its own rights and dignity, but all
jealous of the rights and dignity of
the United States"

Pan-AmeriCdn Unity
Needed for Workers

Washington-The Pan American
Federation of Labor has issued a
manifesto to the workers of all
American countries in which atten-
tion is called to the third Pan-Ameri-
can labor congress to be held in the
City of Mexico, beginning July IL
IL next.
The document is signed by Samuel
Gompers, C. A. Vargas and James
Lord, president, secretary and treas
urer, respectively, of the Pan-Ameri-
can Federation of Labor. Workers
in the various American countries are
urged to prepare now to be repre-
sented at the congress. The mani
festo says:
Until short time ago there had
been no means of communication be-
tween the masses of the peoples of
the American countries. The only re-
lations existing were those established
by the financial, commercial and in
dustrial interests, and as every one
knows, these interests are not always
actuated by desire to promote the
welfare of the people, nor do they
represent the higher and nobler ideals
Of the peoples of the American cOun-
tries. These interests are actuated
by three motives; namely, profits,
profits and more profits. In their
mad rush for material aggrandiZe-
ment they completely lose sight Of
the rights and the interests of hu-
manity.
"Since the financial, commercial
and industrial interests of Pan
America are so closely allied and are
every day extending their activities
over a wider field opened up by the
conditions created by the late war,
it is all the more evident that the
wage earners of Pan-America must
unite for their own protection, for IN
our present day the organization Of
the wage earners on purely national
scale will not be adequate for the
protection and promotion of their in
terests and for the attainment and
realization of their hopes and as
pirations.

Worse Than Reds
VELVET TREAD OF PROFITEER
is SILENT TO MR.. PALMER
Senator Capper Gives Startling Facts
of GOuging Process and Declares
that Consumer is Helpless
While Criminals are
Protected

"Our greatest present menace is
anarchistic greed here at home," de-
clares Senator Arthur Capper, in a
bitter attack on profteering and the
incapacity or the inability of the de-
partment of justice to cope with this
growing evil. "For three years we
have permitted it to do its worst to
the devoted people who are the back
bone of the nation and who must be
its ever-present help in time of trou-
BILE. In that time we have made 49,
900 brand new millionaires. We must
stop this thing soon or be prepared
to take the consequences. The time
has come for Washington to prove
its ability to deal with this dertruc-
tive evil"
Coincident with a prediction that
the price of shoes will be increased
so per cent, next summer comes a
statement from the Central Leather
Company of a declaration of an extra
dividend. The stock of this company
has doubled in value in year and
recently a large issue of new stock
has been added to its liabilities.
"While the people contemplate
going barefoot" says Mr.. Capper,
"the leather trust walks on velvet"
He points out that while the public
is being prepared for higher shoe
costs leather company declares a
dividend of So per cent. The stock
of the Cuba-American Sugar Com
pany has increased 200 per cent dur
ing the last twelve months, which is
an Illuminating explanation of the
high price consumers are paying for
sugar.
While the nation is hungry and
cold, the United States Steel Corpora
tion makes an annual net profit of
100000, and its once worthless
common stock scars to values of un-
belief.
eve have 100000 homeless peo-
pie in the United States as a result
of the melon cutting in lumber" says
Senator Capper, "and there has been
shameless profiteering in that in
dustry."
While evidence exists of this crimi-
nal exploitation, there is no record of
anything of practical nature being
attempted by the department of JUS
tice to protect the people. "In just
a few weeks" he says, "Mr. Palmer
rounded up and imprisoned 4,500 reds.
Yet the reds are in a pitiful minority
compared to profteers. We deport
the reds, but our chief trouble makers,
the gougers, we still let run wild"

them in perpetuity on the backs of
the people.
Third-privilege wants universal
military training. Privilege hesitates
to load this burden on the American
people on the eve of an election. 1t
is awaiting more opportune time.
Fourth-privilege wants to crush
unionism; it wants to enact anti
strike legislation ard then with new
alien and sedition law, and an At
torney General of its own choosing,
it can put men in Jail for even dis
cussing the right to strike.
Fifth-privilege wants to lay its
hands on the nations water power;
it wants it for the electrical trust. 1t
wants to convert the white coal into
light, heat and power. Not for serv-
ice, but for monopoly profits.
Sixth-privilege wants to be in a
position to coerce Mexico, possibly to
send American boys to Mexico to col
lect the debts of Wall Street.
Seventh-privilege wants to estab-
lish dollar diplomacy; it wants great
army and a great navy to menace
the world, to enforce American i'm
perialism and to secure concessions
and privileges with machine guns and
battleships, as has been done in the
past.
Privilege never was so powerful.
Privilege never was more highly or
ganized. And the things privilege
wants mean political and economic
slavery to the worker and the farmer.
The worker and the farmer can
only protect themselves by political
action; by sending their own repre-
sentatives to Congress pledged to
their interest. The place to strike
is in the primaries. In Republican
district a man should be nominated
who can be relied upon to oppose
these things. In Democratic dis
tIict a Democrat should nominated
WHO will oppose these things.
Labor and the farmer have the
votes. They only need to mobilize
these votes for results.
They should begin to organize now.
1t will be too later after the primaries
close.
And there never was greater reason
fer such union and for such an ac-
tiOn than now.

BIsBEE MOBBERs ON TRIAL

Some of the "best citizens" of Bis
