Music in Common Noises.

Camille Saint-Saens, the French COM
poser, best known for his opera, Sara
son and Delilah," heard music in the
commonest noises when child. He
would plant himself in front Of a
clock to hear it strike. Seated on
a small stool before the fire he used
to wait for the tea-kettle to sing.
In book of recollections, Saint
Saens says that his friend, Pasteur,
the great bacteriologist, was the OBJ
ject of public wrath when he first
announced his new treatment for
disease. A mass meeting was held
to protest against his serum dis
coveries, at which an eminent man
said: .Scientific questions should be

In various parts of Bohemia, now

prevails, that of Easter riding" On
each Easter day, at four o'clock in the
morning, the riders assemble, dressed
in black and carrying crosses, flags
and other emblems. From Schonwald
they proceed on a three hours ride
to Kuhn, where they attend service.
The priest, after a sermon wherein
he refers to the horse as symbol of
power, bestows his benediction on the
animals and their riders. This done

thAt export demand should eventually
absorb all Of our present North
American surplus.
With good harvest weather and pro-
ducers selling disposition, receipts Of

Corn,--at the lowest price for ID
years, during the month Of August is
still meeting with a steady foreign
demand. The Government report
shows prospective new Corn crop
about 2OO, 900 under last year, but
$4,000 in excess Of the five year av-
erage. In consideration Of the un-
usually large foreign requirements
with which the previous five year av-
erage did not contend, no burdensome
stocks now seem likely. ~

oats may have to rely on borrowed
strength and very cheap price. The
comparatively stronger position OF
corn, barley and wheat, and the light
crop this year, should eventually be
helpful to oats prices.
Wheat has many bullish possibili-
ties which must be respected, but we
are still inclined to regard these pos
Fsibilitis as long distance developments
which are in return dependent upon
the out-turn of the Southern Henri
sphere crops. Heavy hedging pres
sure and Worldwide money and
credit stringency may prove for the
present rather formidable obstacles to

RENEWED EFFORTS
FOR AMNESTY
Special Appeal for 1s1 I. w. w.
Prisoners House Picketmg
Possible.


Efforts to get action from the
Harding administration on amnesty
for the remaining 200 political pris-
oners in federal prisons are being re-
newed by the organizations which
participated in the demonstration at
Washington in April. These organi-
cations are the American Civil Liber-
ties Union, the Socialist Party, the
Farmer-L Labor party and various To-
cal bodies. Activities have been part
" suspended since April because Of
| the implied promise of administrator
representatives that action would be
taken following the passage of the
peace resolution.
Inquiries at the Department OF jus
itice and at the White House since the
passage Of the resolution show that
practically nothing has been done,
either toward general amnesty or
the release Of a substantial number
Of the remaining prisoners. Attor-
ney-G General Daugherty has had sub
! mitted to him at his request the Civ
lii War amnesty DEGREES and the re-
cent DEGREES of foreign countries in a
memorandum prepared by Albert De
Silver on behalf Of the American Civ
| i Liberties Union and Morris Hillquit
| on behalf Of the Socialist Party.
| The present plans call for reopen
| ing the Washington amnesty office,
| formerly in charge Of Mrs. Harriet
Stanton Blatch, and succeeding her,
Mrs. Otto Branstetter. It is agreed
that some one must be continue usly

Special efforts for the 131 |. w. w.

prison are being made by the Ameri-
can Civil Liberties Union and local
defense committees.
The efforts are being made both for
the men as group and for those IN

THE Pr RESENT ORDER

80
It seems sorter but of place to say
The Present Order when II is 50
very evident that The Present Dis
order" would be more appropriate,
There is no order ID the world today.
Everything is disorder, and, getting
more disorderly with every tick OF
the clock
But you know the old fogies and
standpatters talk about The Present
Order meaning the Capitalist Sys-
tenn Of government that has been in
vogue over the world for many gem
erations. And they say that system
lis the most wonderfully perfect thing
that ever was, and it just must be
preserved and perpetuated in all 81
it's original glory.
Well, just stop and look. Let your
eyes wander about over the world and
behold the wreck and ruin that this
same glorious Present Order" has
caused. At the beginning Of the
time of trouble" and for hundreds
of years back every nation was 8
capitalistic nation. The capitalist
theory Of government held absolute
sway everywhere. f it was such q
perfect system Of government, why
didn't it keep the world running
smooth and prevent the awful wreck
that has come? II it was such q good
tree, why in the thunder didn't il
bear better fruit?
The champions Of the capitalist
system cannot deny that their sys-
tenn was to blame for this terrible
smash-up. Germany, England, France
and all the rest of them were capital
ist to the bone. They were all rid
ing on the capitalist car and doing
things in the approved capitalist way
But you see what happened.
And now they want us to pick our
selves up out Of the wreckage and
crawl right back on the same old car
that wrecked us. They admit that
some Of the wheels are gone, and the
axles terribly twisted, and the sides
caved in, and the boiler busted, but
still the plutes think it is a pretty
good old car and safer than anything
else on the road.
The way the plutes and capitalists
are praising their old wreck of a
system and recommending it as a
good car for the world to ride in

ment saw in a paper the other day.
A man was advertising a Ford for
sale, and as well as I can remember
it went something like this:
"For sale, one Ford about ten years
old;
Going at bargain must be sold.
You can use it for anything you
please,
From cleaning out wells to climbing
trees.
The only thing that it seems to lack
Is the habit Of going and coming
back.
Some of the piston rings are broke
Don't take nothin' to make it choke.
Engine misses more than it hits;
You've got to cuss until it quits.
Timers worn till it amt no good;
Somebody's throwed away the hood.
One rim busted and three spokes loose
Tenders rattle to beat the deuce.
Hard to start when the weather's
cold.
Clutch is loose and the brake won't
hold.
Got no ti1es-runs on the rim;
Dam good Ford for the fix it's in.'

LAST IN WASHINGTON

Poplar, Montana Police depart
ments and newspapers in Tacoma
and other cities in the state of
Washington will be asked to aid in
q search for Edwin Ault, 26-year-old
son of Mrs. L. H. Ault, of this city,
who has been missing for over a year.
Mrs. Ault already has written to the

cities, but up to the present has
learned nothing, and she fears that
her son has met with foul play. Mrs.
Ault last heard from her son a year
ago last May. At that time he was
at logging camp near Dayton,
Wash. He wrote his mother that he
would later send her check. He
sent one for $50 and that was the
last ever heard from him.
III Ault left Poplar a year ago last
spring with his brother Lawrence and
Orville Vinger to go to the logging
camps in Washington. They work
ed for a time near Tacoma and Day
ton, but after that Vinger and Lawr-
ence Ault returned to Poplar. Edwin

brought forth performance higher
than the official competitive records.
Cutler has been practicing assiduously.
The match will close the professional

For the next six weeks Horemans will
devote himself to exhibitions around
the country and will sail for home in
