( DEBS' CRITICS.
Men Rot In Jail Because Their
( Opinions Differ From
T.. Others, He Says.
BY NORMAN HAPGOOD.

An element tina t never seems to
lessen, in the difficulties between the
entrenched few and the unprivileged
many is the arrogance Of the fortu-
mate whenever they feel safe.
CALLS ADVICE BAD.
The Philadelphia Ledger admirably
represents the desire of the rich to
keep everything they have got and
add as much more as possible. 1t has
broken loose in an editorial that re-
lpuires a little attention. 1t says:
., Norman Hapgood suggests to his
socialist friends, II such they be. that
'Kheir plans to picket the White House
IN protest against the continued inn
Iorisonment of Mr.. Debs is for the
moment inadvisable.
"Mr. Hapgood counsels the Social
lists to wait a couple of months n
by that time Mr.. Debs has not beel
released, Mr.. Hapgood infers that
Nlcketing the White House will be =
happy thought and entirely in order.
'Mr. Hapgood's advice, If it may
mus be construed. is bad advice. If
followed, 1t will inevitably get those
who accept 1t into very serious
Srouble.
MISTAKEN ON FACTS.
J This country is in no mood to ac-
kept public demonstrations of any
sort from those whose record in the
time of its peril bears the tint Of
tsaffron or is clouded by disloyal
Thought or deed. No matter what
happens to Mr.. Debs, the Socialists
Are not going to picket the White
Fouse. That is settled and estab-
Arshed fact"
Oh. is II? How grand and cour-
lA&eous and red-blooded that editorial
writer sounds. sitting in his comfort
Able chair emitting sounding common
spiaces TO show his superiority to
those less naughty than himself. But
lhe is mistaken about his facts.
Every arrangement had been made
TO picket the White House. When my
protest was printed in was sent to
Eugene Debs, and he himself tele-
lgraphed and asked to have the pick
letting called off, in order to give the
lnew administration a fair chance to
,ahow whether it had learned anything
III ON the mistakes of Palmer and Will
son in applying czarism to opinion.
1t Is a terrible thing, isn't it to
seek methods of forcing attention to
the fact that 100 men or so are
still rotting in jail because their
bpinions do not agree with those of
khe editor of the Philadelphia Ledger?
SUFFER BITTER WRONGS.
If that editor or owner wants to
press his views on the administration
he can 60 down to Washington and
have a pleasant. nourishing meal with
Hhe Attorney General or the Presi-
tdent. or he can hire people to write
Screeds.
1t is awful that poor devils who
have no chance to eat with those In
.power should seek attention in other
ways after the bitter wrongs against
them have lasted too long.
The Ledger does me the honor to
head its editorial "The Real Menace"
and concludes 1t thus:
"The real menace turks in the ad-
hnonitions Of those who. with plausi-
tble words, stir the low-brcwed to
action and to violence"
OF course everybody who works
with his hands is '1ow-brow." What
about the real menace OF complete
mendacity. since no violence OF any
kind Is contemplated?
What about the real menace Of

DUPED BRIDE
IGNORANT
Girl Killed by Husband" on the
vasari Believed Herself
Lawful Wife.

NEW YORK. March 23,-Ernes-
tine Dressed, the pretty Brooklyn
girl who was slain aboard the steam
ship Vasari, just as the vessel had
crossed the Equator on March 10,
by her 'bridegroom," Louis Cam
pagna, a prosperous Brooklyn fruit
merchant, went to her tragic death
unaware that she had been duped
into an illegal marriage.
HAD JEALOUS QUARREL
She died believing herself the vic
tim of an enraged husband who had
become jealous because she had de-
cided to dine that evening in the
ships dining ROOM instead Of In the
stateroom with her husband" This
was disclosed yesterday when the ship
arrived at Hoboken.
During the five minutes that pre-
ceded the murder and suicide, the
two engaged in a furious argument
in their stateroom. In substance,
Campagna upbraided his bride for
smiling at some man at the Neptune
celebration an hour before, as the
Vasari was crossing the Equator.
The girl pleaded she meant no
harm by smiling. Then five. shots
followed. The mortally wounded
young woman staggered from the
cabin, into the arms of Anna Riley,
stewardess. AS she stumbled out
of the smoke filled room. she moaned:
~ didn't mean it-God knows /
didn't mean it,"
She wore an evening dress-just
ready for dinner.
A second later another shot was
heard. Two stewards ran into Cam
pagnas cabin. On the second hoor
they found Campagna with pistol In
his lifeless hand.
After the wife and Ave children he
had deserted in Brooklyn had taken
action which resulted in his deporta-
tion from Argentina. Campagna ate
his meals in his state room. On this
night, however, the girl insisted on
eating with the rest of the passen-
gers.
All aboard the ship were firmly con-
WINGED that the twenty y-three-year-o
bride" was the dupe of the forty-ave
year-old man who induced her to
marry" him in Brooklyn on January
and go off to Buenos Aires on q
honeymoon"
Plying her, the immigration au-
thorities at Argentina did not reveal
the true reason for their deportation.
They spoke of an "error" in the pass
showed her name had been Ernestine,
while the passport gave her name as
Vivian. She explained she was gen
orally known as Ernestine.
Campagna knew better. When he
realized there was no hope of escap-
ing the return voyage to New York,
he obtained permission to go ashore.
There he mailed a bulky package to
his lawyers. He said to his guard:
Don't tell my wife 1 mailed this
The next morning the young won,-
an, highly excited. reported that
their cabin had been entered and
valuable papers stolen. Campagna
appeared to ignore the theft"
That the girl did not enter into .
suicide pact is disclosed by the fact
two days before she was slain she
wrote to her mother in Brooklyn,
telling of her happy honeymoon
She said she was coming home soon.
Funeral services were held on the
upper deck by the purser, f. w. New.
ton. Campagna's body was cast into
the sea. The services for his victim.
however. were more complete. All
wept as her body, draped in an Amer-
can flag, was lowered into the ocean.

AUGUST BUSY MONTH
FOR STATE TROOPERS

During the month of August mem
bers of the State Police made three
hundred and fifty arrests. gave aid
and assistance after ten automobile
accidents OF q more or less serious
nature. and recovered four stolen
cars. From comparative stand
point this is an excellent record. An
interesting point which is worthy of
mention is the large number OF differ
ent cases upon which the State Police
have been called. Never before in
the history Of the organization have
the services of the troopers been
needed in SO many different ways.
The monthly report shows that the
offenses resulting in arrests were
widely varied and the police were
kept unusually busy in every section
OF the State. II the following months
prove as highly satisfactory as the
first month in the fiscal year, a new
record will be established by the State
Police for 1871.
Blind pigs. Illicit stills and rum-run-
ners all came in for their share OF at
tention during August. Eight stills
were successfully raided and more
than two thousand gallons OF liquor
confiscated. A noticeable fact in con-
nections with these raids is
that the stills are more crude
ly constructed than those which
have been brought to the
attention Of the troopers in the past.
In some cases the connections were
boiled up In oil cans and the mash
was allowed to stand in dirty tin YES
sells. Fully seventy-five per cent OF
the liquor confiscated during the past
month was Of a poisonous nature.

INDIANS PLAY
LA JUNJA FIVE

Owing to a misunderstanding be-
tween the management of the La jun
IN Shop, Steel 'Y' Wire Mill and Pu-
eblo Indian basket fivcs, weekend
court arrangements in Pueblo have
been rather upset The Indians were
to have played La Junta in that city
last Wednesday night. but were un-
able to make the trip. They asked for
a date on tonight. Then the Steel w.
Wire Mill quintet advertised that they
were to play La Junta in this city to-
night.
Finally tho La Junta management
called Pueblo by telephone and made
final arrangements for an Indian
game in the valley town tonight. Thus
the steel "Y' baskctccrs were left
without a game.
The steel workers, however. made
arrangements with a Manzanola bas-
kct squad to come to this city TO play.
while the Pueblo Indians will go to
la Junta for a game with the Santa
Fe Shops crew in that city.
From reports current yesterday II is
believed that the Indians will go to
La Junta in a badly crippled condi-
ton. Captain Talbot was unable to
get in touch with tho entire squad
last night. but stated that he was
sure that tho trip would be made.
