Fought Labor Movement
Confronted With Danger.

The United Mine Workers OF Amer
lea win not stand for any reduction
in wages. according to the December
issue Of the United Nine Workers
Journal This policy Is stated in con.
nection with a discussion OF the
movement among employers through
out the country for reduction OF
wages in the various Industries. In
the article John l. Lewis. internation-
al president OF the miners union. Is
quoted as follows:
"Under no circumstances viii we
permit any reduction in the wages OF
the mine workers OF the country.
There is not going to be any return
TO prewar wage conditions. Any re-
duction In wages Is an economic mis-
take. II never produces any good re-
suit. What the mine workers have
today we are going to hold, and we
propose TO continue TO make progress
instead Of going backward"
ut Is well known that there Is in
the country today well-defined, high
~ financed and ably conducted move
ment on the part Of employers op-
posed to trade unionlsm to break down
the unions and reduce the workers to
the open-shop, low wage SYSTEM" the
Journal says. THAT is one of the
greatest dangers that now confront
the labor movement"

HNHE birth of the new year, as
we are well aware. Is variously
celebrated, but how many
people know of the manner in which
the momentous date is set7 Do you
realize that the new year is really
hours old before the great bulk of the
civilized world is able to celebrate its
arrivall
Priority In rejoicing over the event
Is actually given to the untutored in
habltants Of the islands Of the South
Pacific. The first Of the civilized world
TO greet 1921 was the people of the far
away New Zealand. Sweeping west
ward, the change of date crossed Asia
and then the old world Of Europe and
Africa before starting over the Allan
TIC to America. Onward 1t sped at the
rate Of a thousand miles an hour until
the FIRST day of the new year died away
In the middle Of the Pacific.
In the United States the idea of an
nouncing broadcast over the land the
birth OF the new year originated with
the officers in charge Of the naval OBJ
servatory In Washington. About Is
years ago II was suggested that the
telegraph companies dispatch at mid
night from Washington a series Of sig
nails proclaiming the exact moment of
the new years beginning. The Idea
wes taken up and signals we're sent
out at midnight and at one. two and
three O'Clock In the morning follow
Ing in order that each great time d.
vision Of the United States should re-
ceive its own appropriate midnight
signals from the capital.
The practice has now become fixed.
The signals used are akin to those sent
cut each midday. These begin five
nlnutes before the midnight hour by
way Of warning. and cover each second
of the clock except the twenty-ninth.
the last five OF each OF the first four
minutes. and the last ten of the final
minute. After this last long break
there is a single prolonged contact. the
beginning Of which announces the ex-
net instant Of arrival of the new year.
Since the beginning Of this service
other telegraph and most of the cable
The Jones County news., 1920-12-23

companies have lent their cooperation,
and signals are now sent covering both
North and South America. all our colo
NAL possessions, Australia, Japan and
the principal nations of Europe Some
idea of the speed with which these
New Years greetings are flashed from
Washington to distant points can
be gathered from the fact that 1t takes
less than 0.4 Of a second to reach the
Manila observatory; 0.5 Of second
to reach Lick observatory. California;
2.25 seconds to cover the distance be-
tween Washington and the coast sur
'vey station III Aiaska-this includes
relaying.-and four seconds to let the
Wellington observatory in New Zea-
land know that the new year has
reached us after the celebration has
been hours old.

QUEER NEW YEARS CUSTOMS.

Volumes might be written upon the
queer customs and curious supersti-
lions connected with New Years day.
Literature Is full Of them. grave his
torians have preserved them for Us,
and versatile poets decked them with
fairest flowers OF fancy. From Chau-
Ger, Sweet Spring OF English Song,
from Spencer and Herrick. Milton and
Shakespeare. down to the humblesr
magazine rhymes OF today--one and
ali--they have paid tribute. A wise
essayist describes the day as "a

Gunnison, Nov. 3-In the fastest.
snappiest game of the season, Gunni-

against the Delta Eleven here Satur-
day afternoon In the first kickoff
Gunnison lost her star tackle, Pat
Grafton, who suffered broken leg in
an accidental collision with another
Gunnison player. However, Coach
Krause's men closed up the gap and
pushed the pigskin over for touch

five straight victories for the Gunni-

PAPERS LIE As USUAL
FROM FORCE OF HABIT

'rhe big dailies all told us in
screaming headlines of the awful de-
feat of the Nonpartisan League in
North Dakota, in the very first issues
after the election. Later they began
crawling back and say now that the
result is close. The actual fact is
that Gov. Frazier is reelected by
10000 majority. Mr.. Ladd is senator
by about the same, and every single
Jeaguer on the ticket was elected.
While nc reports are available at
this writing it is pretty sure that all
the initiated amendments calculated
to destroy the industrial program OF
the League were beaten to a frazzle.
Just why the falsehoods were pub
lished as they were Is hard to under
stand except as stated I'm our head
to this article. They got so used to
lying in the campaign they just could
not quit when printing the returns.

NO SPORT IN HUNTING SEAL
Simply Evolves itself Into 4
MsrelIess Slaughter.

Hunting the seal from the icy,
storm-swept coast Of Newfoundland
ID not sport: 1t is toll, whereby 10
part the Newfoundlander wins his
scanty measure Of bread, says Spare
Moments. The hunt IL dull and hid
eous slaughter. scurrying pack and
the swinging and thrust Of an iron
shod gan. q merciless raining Of
blows. with a silent waste of ice all
splashed with red at the end of 1t.
There is no sport in this, nor is there
any fear Of hurt. for TIM seal pleads
and whines like a child. even while
the gafr is falling; but the chase is
beset with multitudinous and unfore-
shadOwed perils. The wind gathers
the Ice into foes and jams 1t up
against the coast, an Unreasonable.
Jagged expanse of 1t interspersed with
plains; then the Newfoundlander
takes his food and his goggles, and
sets out from his little harbor, start
Ing at midnight that he may come up
with the pack at dawn. But the wind
which sweeps the ice in inevitably
sweeps 1t out again without warning
In an hour, or day or a week; nor
does 1t pause to consider the situation
Of the men who are 20 miles off shore.
1t veers and freshens and drives the
whole mass, grinding and heaving, far
out to sea, where it disperses 1t into
Its separate fragments.
The lives Of the hunters depend up
on the watchfulness of the attenuated
line of lookouts. from the women on
the headland to the first sentinel with

ThorouahIy AnaIicized.

"The Mortons are bit too English
for u.s." remarked Elkins. "They take
the London papers exclusively. talk
mainly about Chesterton and Shaw.
and even have their windows stained
foggy so that when anyone looks out
through them the streets appear like
those In London. However, that isn't
why my wife and / stopped calling
there. When their Anglomania de-
veloped to such degree that they
kept a large wastebasket standing In
the hallway. that settled it."

land
And left US dreaming how very fair
1t needs must be, since he fingers
there.
And you, oh you. who the widest
yearn
For the oldtime step and glad return,
Think of his faring on as dear
In the love of there as the love oh
here,
And loyal still as he gave the blows
Of his warrior strength to his coun-
try's fees.
Mild and gentle as he was brave
When the sweetest love of his life he
gave
To simple things. Where the violets
grew,
Pure as the eyes they were likened to,
The touches of his hands have strayed
AS reverently as his lips have prayed,
When the little brown thrush that
harshly chirred
Was as dear to him as the mocking
bird
And pitied as much as man in pain.
A writhing honey bee wet with rain.
Think Of him still as the same, say;
He is not dead, he is just away.
