THE MINE DISASTER.


| We cannot help but wonder why
some people can say that the coal
miners are not justified in asking for
wages sufficient to maintain a decent
standard of living, when we take into
consideration the rate at which min
ers are losing their lives, principally
through the refusal of mine owners
to make the mines safe.
Last week about 120 miners were
killed when an explosion caused by
black damp caught the entire day
shift of mine in New Mexico. While
we have received no authentic reports
of this latest disaster and have moth
ing but newspaper reports to base a
conclusion on, we hazard the guess
that negligence on the part of the
operators was the cause of the ex-
plosion.
| 1t costs money to make mine safe,
bat if miner is killed his family or
friends must foot the funeral bill.
The disaster in New Mexico is not
the first one of its kind to happen in
that particular mine. About 20 years
ago similar explosion took toll of
over hundred lives. Nor is it the
first serious accident of this nature
in the recent past. In Colorado last
fall over 100 lives were snuffed out
because the owners did not provide
proper ventilation; in West Virginia
recently over so deaths occurred from
the same cause; in Tennessee rs or
more died the same way; and hum
dreds of cases are reported where
from one to ten miners give their
lives that people may be kept warm
Tor that the boss can save few
dollars by not providing the proper
protectionl.
And yet, there are those in the
great state of Illinois who want TO
further endanger the lives of coal
miners by repeating the law that is
supposed to force mine owners to
make their mines safe!
A million tons of coal would last
family long time. Statistics show
that one life is lost for every million
tons of coal mined, and that for every
million tons of coal mined there are
AZ minor accidents.
What part of miners life do you
consume yearly?
We also often wonder why people
do not get excited when a mine disas-
ter kills large number of people,
just as they do when an engineer
runs his engine into an open switch

Editor of The Review:


| am farmer living in Champaign
county, and | am glad your paper
has come out in favor of the new hard
road plan for the county. We need
these roads, and need them badly.
One has just to compare conditions as
they have existed in the past to those
of even the oiled roads to see the
benefit the farmers will derive from a
system of paved roads.
Why, remember only few years
ago when the farmers could not get
to town for two weeks at a time. Co
ing way back, remember when my
grandfather used to haul his wheat to
Chicago, using two yoke of oxen to
draw load of fifty bushels. One
summer he got stuck in the marsh
south of Kankakee and didn't get out
for three days. remember about
30 years ago it was impossible to
travel by vehicle between Champaign
and Urbana during the rainy spells
in the spring. That great unoccupied
area between the two cities known in
the early days as kansas" was i'm
possible. And out west of Cham
paign on the Springfield road, | have
seen the mud so deep that all traffic
was shut off for weeks at a time. 1t
was along this road in the neighbor-
hood of the Copper Slough that
Abraham Lincoln's horse got stuck in
the mud while he was on his way from
Springfield to attend court in Ur-
bana, and Mr.. Lincoln was forced to
be absent from court an entire day.
/ l remember as recently as 1915, that
when | was going to Champaign in a
one-horse buggy, got stuck in the
mud on Springfield avenue between
the Arthur road and Prospect avenue
and had to leave the buggy in the
mud and proceed to town on horse
back.
These recollections are mentioned
to show the improvements We have
today over those OF former years.
But these improvements are not
enough. Give US roads that can be
Travelled at all times, and one big
problem of farm life will be solved

DISC0VEREDl WHAT Is A
CAPITALIST.

You can't beat California.
They go the limit in California
Whatever is started in California is
finished. You have to hand it to the
Californians.
If a Californian starts in to be a
progressive he goes the living limit;
if he aims TO be hard boiled be be-
comes the original ten-minute egg.
Mr.. Henry S. Mckee, vice-president
of the Merchants National Bank of
Los Angeles, where everything is the
very essence Of the Wilderness of the
which, wrote a book on "The A. b.
C's of Business" 1t tells it all.
Nothing remains to be said.
Most important of all, we now
know what and why is a capitalist.
Mr.. Mckee has handed out "a gem
of purest ray SERENE" glittering
jewel of bewildering brilliance, a
regular humdinger of a sparkler.
Listen mates:
The capitalist is the fruit of our
industrial experience. He Is the only
contrivance, except the savings bank
and the insurance company, by the
use of which we have succeeded in
accommodating much capital; and it is
only by obtaining and using capital
that we have risen out of the cave
and wigwam. 1t has been proved
that the only way we, as a people
can save enoagh capital to insure the
continuance of our industrial life is to
put so much income into the hands OF
one man that he cannot consume OF
| destroy it, and thus cannot help saw
ing 1t. After saving it there is nc
place 1t can go except into industry
In this way we get it saved, which
is the important thing to America as
a whole. Just who saves it does not
matter much. Saved and employed
in productive industry, it serves all
of us about equally well, no matter
who owns it.
So, the reason why about capitalists
is that we need them as institutions
in which to accumulate money so that
we can have something to use in run
ming industry. Give capitalist SO
much money that he can't spend il
and he'll put it into industry.
Fill sponge SO full of water that
1t can't soak up any more and give
the pail the overflow.
The reason for having silk is that
the labor left over from making silk
can be used in making Bingham.
Mr.. Mckee forgets that most bust.
ness is run on credit, he forgets that
labor makes commodities upon which
values rest. He forgets-but why
shouldn't he forget?
For an original explanation and
justification of capitalists the golden
orange has to be handed to him.
And let 1t ben California orange, by
all means.
Long live the Angelenos; whatever
they do they do to FRAGILE Harri-
son Gray Otis should give cheer
from his grave for Henry Mckee.

and causes the death of a large num-
Der of passengers; or when a mob OF
coal miners runs amuck and kills a
large number of scabs.
In the case Of the mine accident,
the people are taught to believe the
accident could not have been prevent
ed; in the case of the open switch, the
people are taught to believe the en-
gineer disobeyed orders, and in both
cases they have no way of being told
the truth in the matter.
Just now the coal miners are asking
that their minimum hours of labor be
six hours a day for five days a week,
and in the face of a reported coal
shortage, the people are being led to
believe that the miners want to cut
their hours down to this figure.

PRINTING ART TURNS WORLD
INTO MIGHTY BOOKSHOP

Since the invention of printing, it is
estimated that sixty million books have
been turned from the worlds presses,
while the amount of labor, time, paper,
and ink consumed in their making is re-
garded as incalculable. On the average
100000 volumes are published each year.
In the last century over eight and half
million books appeared. The three largest
libraries in existence are the British
Museum Library, with four million vol
umes; the Bibliotheque Rationale, Paris,
with three million; and the Congressional
Library at Washington with two and
half million.-Ex.

the world is often accordingly surprised
by the spectacle of victory where defeat
was looked for as a matter of course.
who would have thought he had it in
him?' is world-old cry. The optimist
may not, in truth, have it in him, but is
reinforced by his belief in the backing of
the universe when a man works hard and

justified at least seven times out of ten
