 City Limits

July 1S R - Overcoming the resistance Of armed guards of the Pacific Spruce Cor poration's mills here, mob of about 400 men, women and chll- dren rounded up the company's Japanese laborers yesterday. loaded them and their belongings into mo- tor cars and trucks and carried them beyond the county line. leav- ing them to shift for themselves.
 No weapons were used in the fighting with the guards but first fights were general and several of the mill force and townsmen were severely beaten.
 Martin Guermer, Charles A. Buck and w. S. Colver, leaders of the mob, were arrested by Sheriff Hors- fall and deputy and the mob dis persed.
 The names of at least fifty other participants were taken by the of ilcers, 1t was said.
 The trouble was the result of a disagreement of several weeks standing between certain laboring groups and the company over the employment of Japanese labor at the company's sawmill. The march on the spruce mill followed a brief but fiery mass meeting in the streets, at which agitators haran- gued the crowd. The mob was led by a man waving an American flag. None of the Japanese was injured.

Loss Put At s20,o00--Feople in Ad. joining Houses Thrown
 From Their Beds

Niagara Falls, N. r. July 15- An explosion, believed 10 have been caused by a dynamite bomb, wreck ed a two-story brick and frame dwelling In East Falls street at 2:45 o'clock this morning. The building was owned and occupied by Joseph La Tona, an insurance agent and supervisor from the third ward. Fire followed the explosion and the building and contents are total loss. The damage Is estimated at s20,00O. No one was injured in the blast, all members of the La Tona family be- ing out of the city.
 Five minutes before the explosion occurred a patrolman on the post tried the door of the store and mo- ticed nothing unusual about the place. The blast blew the roof off the building and rocked other build ings for a block, throwing tenants from. their beds and breaking many windows In adjoining structures When firemen and police arrived on the scene flames were shooting from ssll sections of the building. Bremen tfoundo four cans that had contained s,gasoline in the ruins, La Tona recently announced his candidacy for renomination as su- pervisor. Police believe political enemies among the foreign born community may have been responsi- hle for the explosion.

DEMONSTRATING A NEWS

We wonder just what might have
happened to Gram" Durham had
she been afflicted fifty years ago
after the manner sshe confesses she
now is, confesses in these words:
i've been seeing things until it
seems I can't see any more, and yet
I want to go right on seeing things.
Gram" is now, like 50 many of us,
fevered by desire for novelty. Fifty
years ago she evidently was en-
crossed in doing things, as a re-
suit of which she is recognized as a
fitting companion of the level-head-
ed old gentleman whose real worth
and skill is attracting wide attention
and he not losing his head but keep
ing his feet upon the ground that ne
has trod safely and with gratifying
independence for seventy years.
If nothing more, this lovable old
couple have demonstrated the power
Of wholesomeness, naturalness and
good sense, when skilfully presented,
to occupy place on the front pages
of the daily press, to the exclusion of
degenerates and abnormal lime
lighters. The only regret is that
such worth appears to need a press
agent.

WOMEN IN INDUSTRY

The employment of married wo-
tnen outside the home is surely q
matter Of concern to that home, also
It more or less is a matter of con-
Germ to the public interested in see
Ing that the homes have a fair
chance.
Data collected i've years ago show
Cd nearly two million women en-
ployed in gainful occupations. Dur
Ing the period, 1910-1S2O, there was
m increase Of 5s.7 per cent in the
number Of married women engaged
In manufacturing. mechanical in
dustries. trade and transportation
One wonders whether this increase
persists. The department of labor
recognizes the need of securing such
knowledge but this would REQUIRE a
large amount of field work. Secre-

Once the little girl made perfectly
satisfactory dolls out Of corn-cobs,
suitably attired with odds and ends
from mothers workbasket; the small
boy made coasting vehicle from a
barrel stave and watched with COM
pretending eye the blacksmith fash
ion his skates, and his imagination
was capable of visioning Indians
fully as satisfying to his mind as
are the Apaches Of the Bowery by
way of the movie. Are all these
attachments to be won by others and
the child left no opportunity to de-
velope his creative faculties? Or
are these methods become mere
trivialties to the child that devotes
his attention to building a radio set
or to reading about the Einstein
theory?
Anyhow, the chairman of the New
York State commission on mental
detectives appears in print with the
assertion that with the aid of the
movies we are developing spoon
fed mind. He concludes: Il should
say that continual attendance at the
movies might make just the differ
ence in a normal individual between
a good mind and very mediocre
one, or an average mind and a poor
one"
Then as to the abnormal or sub
normal mind he finds occasion for
greater apprehension. "The come
dian of the film knocks a man out
with a length of lead pipe, the
audience laughs, the weak-minded
spectator among them. We could
hardly wonder If he went out after
ward and felled his pal with a similar
blow Just because he had the notion"

The granting of Christmas pardons
is custom that should be honored
in the breach. For one thing there
aren't enough to go around: Again,
favoritism shown criminals exerts a
very bad influence. If a pardon is
deserved the occasion for granting it
should be now, not Christmas nor
the Fourth of July.
