GOES FOR WARS

Probably you paid at least $500
income tax and here is the way it
went: Sixty-eight cents went to pay
tor past wars, including pensions, in
terest and dividends to railroad bond
holders. Twenty-Five cents went to
pay for the up keep of the army and
navy so we will be prepared for the
next war, and the balance 10 cents
went for all other purposes.
Hundreds and hundreds of cars
pass over our roads whose occupants
are known as Tin can tourists" They
spend nothing in the state except for
two things-can goods and gasoline.
They burn the gasoline wearing out
our roads, and by all the rules of
fairness we should have a tax col
lected by the retailer on every gallon
OF gasoline sold. By this means we
would reach these Tourists" for thei4

FIGURED IN HISTORIC PAST
Representation Of Monarch oof the
Time of Abraham Now in
Pennsylvania Museum.

In the dim old days of the patriarch
Abraham people looked very much as
they do now, judging from the oldest
representation of human figures un,
earthed by the toiling brotherhood OF
psychologists. Two striking figures
one standing and one seated, are in.
Guided in the elaborate design Of the
clay seal, or postage stamp" which
has excited the enthusiasm of DIR. LIE,
grain, curator of the Babylonian sec.
ton of the University of Pennsylvania
museum.
DR.. Legrain has figured out the in
scriptions of the little tablet as indi,
eating that it dates from the period
when Cur Of the Chaldees," mentioned
in Genesis in connection with the his
tory of Abraham, was flourishing
kingdom. And he finds reason to be.
lieve that the seated figure, decorated
with f1ounces of beautiful ACCORDION
plating, is portrait of his majesty
Ibi-Sin, the last. king Of Or and pos
sibly an intimate friend Of the Father
Of Israel.
To the modern eye both figures are
remarkably well drawn and lifelike
iR attitude, especially considering the
fact that they were modelled in clay
on a very small scale. DIR. Legrain
thinks the tablet served the double
purpose of seal and postage stamp
on sack of money forwarded to a
banker named Shulpae by his rever.
ence the high priest of the temple OF
Or, at which Abraham worshiped.

back to work pending an audit
OF the books to determine the
ability of the company to pay
what they have never proved is
other than a JUST AND REA-
SONABLE wage, has been de-
MED by the U. S. District court.
1t is to be presumed that the re-
fusal resulted from objections of
the company to such procedure.
The objection that it would be
unfair to the men at present en-
ployed by the road to displace
them with the men who are at
present on strike, is not really a
sound one. Men who take posi-
tons made vacant by strikers, do
not expect those positions to be
permanent. Many of these men
who are now at work could be
Justly replaced because of their
lack OF knowledge of their work.
The number of mishaps that are
occurring to the road is evidence
OF that. Several accidents have
occurred for which regular en-
ployee in normal times would
have been discharged and be-
cause of which, had be been a
union man, his rating with his
union would have been lowered,
if he was not blackmailed from
the union as undesirable because
of incompetency.
The Enterprise refers to the
possibility Of the road being
iunked. That is, as the Leader
has observed before, an idle
thought in an idle moment. The
true solution of the whole rail-
road muddle is government own
ership and operation which
would enable distribution of
losses and gains between well
developed and partially devel-
oped and partially developed sec
tons of country, encouraging
more rapid development in sec
tons like South Georgia and
making unnecessary the contin-
ued and growing overcrowded
conditions in the industrial sec
tons,

Did you ever ask yourself serious
ly why the railroads should reduce
wages. Do that now and see if you
can give an intelligent answer. You
can very easily answer the question
as it applies to farmers, because they
are getting less for what they SELL
This answer would also apply to
manufacturers. for nearly all of them
in every known article are now SELL
ing those articles for less than last
year this time. Hokever, in the rail-
road business this does not apply in
the least, as matter of fact the rail-
roads are getting more for what they
sell now than they did one year ago.
The farmers are paying more freight
on every ton of guano shipped this
season than they did last year, and
old Mr.. Ultimate Consumer, is paw
ing an additional tariff on everything
he uses. You will find the answer to
the question is this: The large en-
pleyers OF labor are determined to
crush the power of Union labor, so
they can again have Industrial
Slavery.
