is ohscurcd by the remote past. Enough
is known, however, to warrant the as
scrtion that many of the present day
folklore tales are Il mixture of stories
that were brought over by the earliest
Spanish conquistadores. Others were
handed down through the centuries
from the days of the Toltecs and Aztecs,
and still others may have come across
the Western seas. probably from China.
In this latter connection it has recent
ly been scientifically proved, it is stat
ed, that the so-called Indians of South
crn Mexico are descendants of the
Chinese. This theory is based ON the

has inherited his vocation from
his father should feel that he has
some claim to protection of his
inheritance which will enable
him to earn living.
If modern governments cannot
devise laws which will meet the
ever growing labor problems of
the world, which seem to be the
underlying cause of most of our
troubles, then these governments
must fail and fall and a new or
der of things must arise from
the chaos which such condi-
tion will bring about.
It is inexcusable that fair and
sufficient labor laws have not
been enacted. There is no reason
why such a law, fair to employer
as well as to employe, which both
will respect and obey, cannot be
drawn.
Our statute books are filled
with laws for the protection of
real estate and other property.
There should be just as much
protection, if not more, for la
Dor which is all the property
big percentage of the people of
the earth possess. Life is worth
just as much to the ditch digger
as it is to the multimillionaire.
And oftimes he is a more valu-
able citizen because he at least
produces something.
The butterflies of plutocracy
toll not, neither do they spin. But
the law protects them. The busy
bees of industry who both toll
and spin are more in need of
protection and more deserving
of it.
We need labor legislation. The
time is coming when we are go
ing to have it. Our forefathers
repudiated government without
representation. Labor will be
forced to do the same thing if
capital does not play square
with it. With proper labor leg
islation objectional labor organi-
cations will become a thing of
the past. The agitator will be
relieved of the opportunity to
preach class hatred and ferment
class discomfort.

A Pipe That Brought Fame

A fine old meerschaum and dis
orderly man We're responsible for the
fame of Claude Raquet Hirst, the
painter, who. fellow-artists say, is un-
excelled in the work in which she has
found her meter. This meter is paint
ing old books and old pipes. And its
discovery was made quite by accident.
Many years ago Miss Hirst loaned
her studio to "A fellow-painter who was
waiting for his to be completed. Says
Miss Hirst. HE was like me, he was
not very orderly. His tobacco things
We're always around; and one day 1
noticed what an attractive group they
was a glorious color. 1t was like old
ivory. / had always liked old books
and old engravings, so l put the pipe
with some of my old books and painted
them. 1t came out very well, and 1
sent it to the Academy, which was
then in an old building on Twenty-third
Street. 1t sold Immediately. II. o.
Havcmeyer bought it,
Since the sale of that first little
picture Miss Hirst has painted nothing
but old books, and always on an s by
10 canvas. As an artist says Her
pictures are of an intimate kind that
people like to get near" In fact at
exhibitions they are apt to be hang
ing crooked, as. it is said, people take
them down so many times to hold them
and look at them. Two years after the
sale of her first painting of the meer-
schaum pipe she married the owner of
the pipe, w. c. Fitler, the landscape
artist.
Mrs. Filter has painted few large
pictures, but most of them are on
small canvasses. AS she says:
Il always paint small things that 1
can paint the actual size; my books
are small books, and 1 never use mag
nifying glass to work with. / can't
do it. l get things too large. / only
use glass to see if the little faces
in the engravings l have painted are
right. Some women like to sew to calm
their nerves, but l paint books''
Because of the detail in her work
Mrs. Filter has been called the female
Harnett.
One of the artists favorite books
which she uses in many of her studies
is small volume of Paul and yir-
ginia" in English, published in London,
May "a, 1706.

Producing Bee of Industry
Needs Protection More
Than the Butterflies
of PlutOcracy
By VICTOR NEuHAUS.

A strike is warfare. war IS
II N murder. The contention
II 4 that there may be peace
full strike is erroneous. The very
word, "strike," means to attack.
The strike is a dangerous
weapon. Its use should be re-
stricted. And this restriction
should include the lockout, as
well. 1t is nothing but strike
of the employer.
How could the people in the
coal fields at Herrin have famil-
iarized themselves with such
fiendish, barbarous murder! How
could they have outraged civili-
zation with such inhuman atroci-
| ties!
We are trembling in the throes
of an epidemic of crime. 1t has
become a contagious disease the
world over. Our methods of
combating it are about as eff
fective as fighting forest fire
with a squirt gun. Retribution
is about the only antidote we
know. The most popular method
suggested is application of the
law of the desert-an eye for an
eye, tooth for a tooth, life
for a life.
That is as far as we have adj
vanced in our boasted civili-
zation. Morally, we are no furth-
er advanced than the people were
at the time of Moses.
We are not seeking a cure but
a prevention. Just as the mod
ern medical scientist looks for
those methods which will prevent
disease so must our modern So
cial order adopt measures which
will make murder impossible. We
must seek the cause before we
can prevent the effect.
You can no more teach the
world today to murder and to-
morrow expect it to hold life sac
red than you can permit child
to do a certain thing today and
expect unquestioned obedience
which you prohibit the doing of
that thing tomorrow.
It cannot be denied that sys-
tematic training of the people of
the world for warfare stimulates
the lust for murder, as it justi-
fies the taking of human life to
certain extent. Man, like the
beasts of the jungle, acquires a
taste for human blood.
To justify the maintenance of
military machinery, the govern
ments of the world have always
needed an underdog. Some part
of the population that differed
from the majority in race, re-
ligion or in education has been
used. This underdog performed
the part of scapegoat and all
the shortcomings and crimes and
unaccountable occurrences were
saddled upon these radicals"
who were stigmatized with all
that was bad and whose rights
never existed. This state of facts
applies to a certain degree even
in these United States.
The ruling classes have always
defendet their own rights, giving
little recognition at any time to
the underdog who has certain
hereditary privileges, assertion
of which has earned for him such
names as radical" anarchist" !"
We are degenerating into a
people of professional fault find
ers. We are ready to sit in
judgment at any time on the
other fellows shortcomings.
Those happenings at Herrin
bring to mind that human nature
seems much the same as it was
1000 years ago in the days of
Nero when the Roman blood-lust
was satisfied in the arena.
