All Love "oId Homestead. !"

One trouble with the American peo-
pie, declares an eastern journal, is
that they have not enough cherished
old homesteads. We have been mi
grant people We transplant ourselves
by habit We are Munchausens con
stantly engaged in pulling the family
tree up by the roots. Home is to
most of us more like a tent than like
a house. But through all our nomad
ism we yearn for the "old homestead"
Let all who can hold fast to it, or re-
cover it if it is lost. It's sentiment,
its inspiration, are priceless.

Getting After the Careless Citizen.


The farmer is held liable for dam
age if he builds fire and permits it
to spread to his neighbor's land; rail
road companies have been held liable
for damage done by the fire spread
ing from their rights of way. Why
not extend this liability to the man
with a basement full of rubbish, de-
fective chimney or other known fire
hazard, which results in fire and in
jury to his neighbor? Why not com
pei him to reimburse the city for the
expense of putting out the fire caused
by his carelessness? Pennsylvania
has such a law. A number of cities
provide this penalty by ordinance.
The large majority of fires are due
to carelessness, and there is no more
effective way to cure such carelessness
than through the pocketbook.

Orinln of t.Dounhhnvu

The word "doughboy" is slang
military term applied to an infantry
man in the United States army. The
word dates from the Civil war when
army wit was aroused by the large
globular brass buttons on infantry
uniforms. Someone-he must have
been sailor-dubbed the buttons
"doughboys" because they reminded
him of the boiled dumplings of raised
dough that are so frequently served
in ships messes and are known to
all sailors as ''dau@hboys."

Samuel GOmperS Says
MiddIemen to Blame
CITY PRODUCERS ARE ANXIOUS
TO COOPERATE WITH FARM
Frs THE FOOD PRODUCERS

I have been asked to set forth in
very limited space some expression
regarding the relation between indus
trial wage earners and farmers and
also in relation to the future Of Ameri
can labor in politics. Both are exceed
ingly important subjects.
Antagonists of all workers seek to
convince both farmers and city work
ers that their interests are antagonis-
tic Labor believes that farmers and
city workers, both being producers of
the necessaries and the comforts of
life, are entitled to a reward which is
not only an adequate return for their
labor but which enables them to live
in accordance with American stand
ards.
The factor that makes city products
cost more than they ought to cost in
the country and that makes country
products cost more than they ought to
cost in the city is the collection of
middlemen who stand between city
and country producers and who add
nothing of value either in production
or distribution.
Wall Street would like to have
farmers and city workers look at each
other and not see what stands between
When they look at each other they
ought to see what stands between
them robbing both When they do
that they inevitably realize their unity
of interest, their common ground of
action and their need for friendly I'M
derstanding and cooperative relation
ship.
Every useful, productive person in
the United States has unity of in
terest with every other useful, produc
tive person in the United States.
If we could get rid of those who
exist mainly to exploit we should have
much less troubles than we now have
the wheels of production on the farm
and in the city would run much more
smoothly, there would be much more
production in both places and the pro-
ducers would be much more adequate
ly rewarded.
It is necessary at this time to say
but little regarding American labor in
politics. American labor in politics is
much like American farmers in poll
tics as recent events have proved. Am
erican labor and American farmers get
ting together in politics merely means
that the rank and file of American
citizenship is getting tired of govern
ment by stand-pat and reactionary
politicians, and is determined to bring
about government in the interests of
the people. We believe thoroughly in
Lincoln's idea in that respect.
Wage earners and farmers alike are
tired Of subsidies and tariffs and spec
ial privileges designed to enrich spec
ial interests and believe it is time that
government began to take account of
humanity instead of dollars.
American labor proposes to use the
political machinery of the United
States to that end, and it proposes to
cooperate to the fullest extent with
the farmers of our country. We do
not propose to dissipate our energy in
any forlorn third party hope, but we
propose to make our energy count in
every section of the United States in
the interest of humanity and in the
interest of a government that will
consider humanity.-By Samuel Com
pers, President, American Federation
of Labor
