The Coddled Author

Is he likely to repay cOddlingf
,Mr. Ezra Pound, an smiable oracle,
is Of the opinion that he is. At all
events he sketches in Paris letter
to "The Dial' a delectable scheme
for keeping the wolf from the door
Of the literary artist, where It's
howls disturb the serenity Of cres-
tive composition. 1t appears that
once upon time "there was q man
in a small town who had Pisanello,
Pier Francesca and Mino da Fie-
sole all working for him at one
time or another" These three, as
is we'll known, worked TO good pur-
pose. Ergo, thinks Mr.. Pound,
there must have been something
helpful about the man who hired
them, SO he would revive the func-
tons of the wise patron.
"The modus Of Bel Esprit" he
tells US, 'fs a simple annual sub
scription Of 500 yearly; the society
has no running expenses (or at
least none chargeable to members)
and the aim is to free, one at q
time, as many writer's and artists
as possible; this by giving them the
deficit difference between o reason
able cost Of living and the amount
they can make By the sale of their
best work and nothing but their
best work under current conditions.
This means that they are not ex-
pected to interrupt serious work By
doing the vendible trivial, and that
they will not be penalized (on the
pocket for destroying their in
ferior stuff"
Could anything be lovelier--for
the beauc esprits? First they catch
their Pisanello or their Chatterton,
which, of course, ought not TO be
difficult in an era bursting With
them. And then they treat the case
according to its requirements. We
would give q wilderness Of monkeys
to see them doing 1t, helping to de-
eide between the best and the in
ferior stuff, pigeonholing "the ven
dible trivial" (for the great mans
heirs to sell at a profit the moment
the breath is out of his body and
altogether putting the artistic con
science on q solvent basis. "This
appears fairly simple TO me-" says
Mr.. Pound, Of his big-hearted
scheme. But we wonder how many
authors there are left in the world
who really want TO be freed by
any committee Of beanr esprfts--
authors, that is, who would be worth
freeing.
Hardship Is good incentive, says
Mr.. Pound, until it kills. A good
axiom, no doubt, and in the abstract
there Is everything to be said for
sle support of your true artist. The
world owes him living. But your
true artist will persist in wanting
70 work for It. Coddling makes for
fiabbiness. We shall be told that
the beauz esprits can do lot 70 aid

CHICAGO, June "a (Associated Press)
---Tabulated returns in the strike refer
endum of the nations railway shopmen
were prepared to-day for the canvass of
the vote by the general committee OF
ninety rail union chalrmen.
b. M. Jewell, president OF the railway
employees department of the American

tors. Mr.. Markham also pointed out
that when the s135, 100000 wage cuts
become effective July 1, they will leave

LABOR LEADER BLAMES
HERRIN MINE OWNERS

ST. LOUIS, June "a (Asscciated Press).
Frank Harrington. president Of the
Illinois branch of the United Mine
Workers of America, issued a statement
here to-day. saying the trouble at the
Lester mine. near Herrjn, was precipi-
tated by the coal company attempting
" ~ run the mine non-unicn, with i'm
| ,rted strikebreakers under armed
| .uards.'
Men familiar with the conditions in
the mining camps in Illinois and the
character of Illinois miners had impor-
tuned the company not to attempt to
operate" Farringtons statement said.
For several days previous to the out
break of the trouble the mine guards
had been stopping citizens on the public
highway near the mine and had COM
PEELED them to submit to being searched.
This naturally created an intense feeling
Of indignation.
"wednesday June 21. the union
miners met in mass meeting and de-
c;1ed to go to the mine TO try, by peace
full means, to persuade the non-union
men to stop working. Upon approach
ing the mire and while still on the pub
lie highway they were fred on by the
mine guards and two of their number
were killed. The men who We're killed
were not armed. In fact thcre is no
evidence to show that any of the union
miners were armed. but instead every
thing indicated that they were on
peaceful and legal mission.
Following the killing of their two
comrades the miners disbanded. but re-
assembled in greater numbers during
the night near the mine and on the
break OF day Thursday morning were
again fired on by the mine guards. This
second attack seemed to infurlate the
union miners and It was at this juncture
that the trouble reached its highest
point"

ACQUIT SMALL IN
CONSPIRACY CASE
Illinois Governor Found Not
Guilty and Cheered by a
Noisy Throng..
TRIAL LASTS NINE WEEKS
Illegal Transactions in State
Funds Charged to the Ex-
ecutive by State.
TRIAL LASTS NINE WEEKS

WAUKEGAN. H.. June "a (Associated
Press) jury trying Gov. Len
Small found him not guilty at :SS this
afternoon. The jury was out one hour
and thirty-five minutes.
Cheers that shook the rafters of the
ancient Lake County Court House
greeted the verdict. Friends by scores
poured through the gates to the bar
Enclosure to grasp the Governors hands.
The case against Gov. Small started
nearly year ago when the Grand Jury
OF Sangamon county began an investi-
cation at Springfield. the capital. July
3. Eleven days later Gov. Small, Lieut.
Gov Fred E. Sterling and Vernon Cur
tbs. banker of Grant Park, ILL.,, and
brother of the late Senator Edward Cur
tbs, were indicted.
There were four indictments. The
three defendants were charged with
embezzling 100000. Gov. Small alone
was charged with embezzling s500O00
during his term as State Treasurer.
Lieut. Sterling was charged with
embezzling 100000 while he was STATE
Treasurer. The fourth indictment
charged the three jointly with con-
spiracy and operating a confidence game
involving $2,000.000 of. State money.
Gov. Small announced he would re-
fuse to submit to arress, and after the
court at Springfield had received the in
dictments the Governors counsel con-
tended that he was immune by reason
of his official position and set up the
claim of ancient monarchi<l law that
'the king can do no wroLN." Judge
Smith overruled the plea.
Finally Sheriff Mester besieged the
Capitol building on August 9 and the
Governor submitted to arrest at the Ex-
ecutive Mansion and gave bond. Later
the Governor and Mr.. Curtis obtained
changes Of venue 10 Lake county and the
case was shifted here. where eventually
all the indictments except the conspiracy
bill were dismissed.
The case went to trial nine weeks ago
and three weeks were spent in selecting
a jury. The case was marked by much
legal jockeying.
The essence Of the States charges was
that the Governor while State Treasurer
conspired with Senator Curtis to loan
State funds to the Chicago packers on
short term notes paying as high as 81
per cent. interest, of which only 2 per
cent. was alleged to have been paid td
the State.

FARMERS GIVEN AID
INPLAC|NG TURKEYS
At MARKET POINTS
Growers Given Advice as to
Shipping Birds and Names
of Reliable Buyers.
(Tribuns's Helena Bureau.)

Helena, Nov. 11.-Definite assistance
in marketing Montana's Sarge crop Of
turkeys is offered poultrymen of the
state by the Montana department of
agriculture, which now has ready for
distribution its first. circular on tur-
key marketing. Growers of turkeys
are urged to write for it. This cir
cular goes to county agents. poultry
associations. home demonstration agents
and turkey ~raisers direct, giving COM
plete directions for fitting, killing, pick
ing. dressing, packing and shipping the
birds: freight and express rates to
available markets, and lists of reliable
buyers and handlers of dressed poul-
try, together with quantities asked for
by each firm, prices offered, and direc~
tions for shipment of the kinds of stock
desired by each.
Price quotation circulars supplement-
ing the original bulletin and giving spe-
cific price offers by local and out-of-
department of agriculture weekly, and
possibly more frequently during No
vember and December.
Offers have been received by the
Montana department of agriculture
from several out-of-state firms that
have outlet for the entire poultry pro-
duction of the state. These buyers EN-
phasize the ~desirabihty Of shipping only
dressed stock, and only plump, No. |
grade birds.
In issuing this circular. the depart
ment says: Montana is peculiarly
well adapted to raising turkeys. having
abundant range, the right kind Of small
grain crops, and relatively little rain
in the season when the birds are most
affected. The ~'blackhead. disease which
is prevalent in the east has gained little
foothold in Montana. Turkeys fatten
best after cool weather sets in, and
by that time the grain in this state
has been harvested and threshed and
the turkeys have had opportunity to
fatten and make their living on waste
grain in the stubble and about the
stacks"

FINE FOR
ACHING KIDNEYS
Eating too much meat may
clog the Kidneys, then
the Back hurts.

Most folks forget that the kidneys.
like the bowels, get sluggish and clogged
and need a flushing occasionally. else
we have backache and dull misery in
the kidney region, severe headaches,
rheumatic %twinges, torpid liver, acid
stomach. sleeplessness and all sorts of
bladder disorders.
You simply must keep your kidneys
active and clean, and the moment you
feel an ache or pain in the kidney re
gion, get about four ounces of lad Salts
from any good drug store here, take a
tablespoonful in a glass Of water before
breakfast for a few days and your kid
neys will then act fine. This famous
salts is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithia.
and is harmless TO flush clogged kid
neys and stimulate them to normal ac-
tiyity. 1t also helps %neutraiize the
acids in the urine so it no longer irri-
tates, thus helping 10 relieve bladder
disorders.
Jad Salts is harmless; inexpensive;
makes n delightful effervescent lithia
water drink which everybody should
take now and then to help keep their
kidneys clean.
A well-known local druggist says he
sells lots of Jad Salts to folks who be-
iieve in trying to correct kidney trouble
while It is only trouble.
