Barometer of Public Opinion
",nahcr American" Writes.

Editor world: l read with much interest tho
opinion OF the one who signed himself as AN
American" All employers do not do like his.
there Is not one In a hundred that do. IIc Is
both employer ana employc; yes but how many
laborng do you in his position? 1t is
men like him, who never had the experience
never came IN touch with the union that are
doing the kicking they kick hut don't know
anything whatever Of what they are talking
about
The wife OF his employer and his wife are
friends but venture to say that his employer
is person OF no great wealth or his wife
would not oven be recognized As for his car
COW and chickens. ne Is indeed fortunate to
have them, there are not many that do. And for
having a hired girl to take care OF his children
ma to do the housework. he Is again moro
fortunate for most wives OF laboring men have to
do their own work and many have to do the
work of others, In order to make both ENDS
meet.
The American. IL he is an American says that
the labOrng man wants TO get all the money
he can for as little work possible What
about the employer? lie doesn't think about
that does he? No, because he is one of the
more fortunate, and what should he care for
the less fortunate? The employer wants to get
all the work he can for as little money as
possible, and the merchant sells as small
amounts as he can for all the money he can get.
So an organized labor men are criminals
| admit that there are fanatics in everything
hut many. many things have been done and then
laid n the door OF organized labor mat they
never did nor even thought about doing. There
has been lot of dirty work on that side which
no one knows anything about,
Food prices scared before thore was demand
for more wages, How do they expect the
working men to live. II they don't want to give
moro wages, why keep down their prices then
A to what the prnfessed American said about
the miners and railroad men. the smallest child
would have enough sense TO know that he was
guessing at what he said. He must have had a
,reann like that Having been in the coal min
int. district fer many years, ! know the condt-
ton of their homes, l don't think he has had
much experiences and had better keep his
mouth shut IN he finds out what he is talking
about
Goodness' what II he and his employer do
belong to the same lodge2 such things exist all
over the country and what has that got to do
with Q anyway
mine have done az much II not more, II his
forcrather Is like him ne didn't do much, but
we need now o. some good Investigation and a
suulre deal with everyone, then everyone Will
be happy. Thcro is no particular class Of people
20 blame for tho present conditions. All are
more OF less to blame and what is 10 he done
now is to quit sluabbling and do something.

HEING YOUNG

There ts no treasure. sought or sung.
So sweet as that of being young;
MouarCha look down upon the boy
And envy him his years of joy;
Rich men tho barefoot boy behold
And for his chance would give thoir gold,
An men OF skin would give their fame
Their vanuuished youth once more TO claim.
He that has youth stI holds the seeds
OF greatness and IT, manly deeds.
To nina the morning skies are fair
And there Is beauty rNerNwheres
Upuu his heart no burden lies,
Tears have not over drained his eyes,
The elorics of The world remain
For him 10 fight for and TO gain.
There's none so great or rich, but he
Wishes once more a boy 20 be,
Life grants 20 uoue such treasures rare
As those which youth alone may share
The glow of health, the radiant smile,
The freedom from the sham Of style.
Great deeds not done, and songs unsung,
Belong 10 hun who still is young,
Richer Is he than millionaire
who has not Yet come into care,
a .Monarchs with all that they possess
And all their pomp and regal dress
Have no such bank accounts OF JOY
As those belonging TO a boy
Like shining pearls the years are strung
For him 20 count who sim is young

Esperanza employees named Culvert and
Dietrich, and W. b. Johnson. a British
landowner.
Five of the captives are reported
either to have made their escapes or
to have been released by the bandit
chief because their lack of prominence
led him to believe he could not collect
ransom for them. Zamora, who mas

demanded 100000 pesos for the release
of johnson. 1t was not learned what
figure he placed on the Americans.

MOB HOLDS SWAY

Belfast, Aug. o2-Rioting is in
progress in Risburn as result of the
assassination today of Inspector
Swanzy. An attempt was made to
wreck the shop of sim fem leader
within forty yards of the scene Of
the crime and only intervention by
Ulster volunteers prevented it.
The crowd then attacked the resi-
dence of a Nationalist Republican,
who fired from a window. His as
sailants returned the fire and wound
ed him.
The crowds were out to burn the
house of every Nationalist in Lis
burn. Boards were wrested from
windows that previously had been
smashed and fire raiders entered
buildings calmly to complete their
destruction. The local fire brigade
declined to interfere and the Belfast
brigade showed reluctance to respond
TO calls, as seven hundred men from
Lisburn travel daily to Belfast to
work in the shipyards. A renewal of
the trouble here is feared.
Last night large crowds assembled
outside the Cork Jail and prayed for
the hunger stricken there. Special
prayer and masses for the men were
offered in all the Catholic churches
Of Cork today.
