1G helpless human derehct, was
hanged in the Cook county jail last
Friday morning for the killing of a
policement, while young Evans was
under the influence Of moonshine.
Evans was hanged because he had no
money. Had he belonged to any Of
the several powerful gangs that op-
crate here in Chicago he would be in
10 more danger Of death than had he
merely stolen a banana This should
be a lesso nfor those who might be
tempted to initiate their betters in
the prohibition enforcement depart
ment in the matter Of violating law.
before a man can commit murder
u with impuntty in this tough town
he should first join a capitalist politi-
cal organization, the Crowe-Barrett
wing of the G. o. P. preferred. Hav-
ing done this he should become a
member of gang" and salt away
some money In the accumulation Of
the coin little slaughter might be
indispensable, but with the fruits of
his toll and the political pull, nothing
but the merest accident should pre-
vent the aspiring citizen from dying in
bed. Richard Evans paid the price Of
unpreparedness. Now, as Arthur Bris-
bane would say, If he only had fleet
Of airplanes-
THIS is democracy! Those who
4 had their doubts should prepare to
shed them now. Not that the average
American-the kind that joins the
klan-has anything to she'd But on
with the story. "A pair Of pretty
hands upon which good many dol
lars have been spent for manicuring,
peeled potatoes today in the Campbell
soup factory for 80 cents an hour"
This is how the International News
Service starts the tale about Miss
Elmer Dorrance. tsycar-old daughter
and principal heir Of DR.. John 7. Dor
rance, multi-millionaire and big soup
inthe-can man. 1t is quite obvious
that if the poor little rich girl must
work for 80 measly cents an hour,
even tho her papa owns the factory,
the rest of the help have no reason
10 kick.
EyLINOR is starting at the bottom,
~ she says, and we think she will
stay there until the publicity dies out
and millions of babies will take many
more drinks of Campbell's soups.
Then Elinor will quietly marry a bank
rupt European count. I'm proud of
her" said DR.. Dorrance. ITS some
thing of a relief these days to see a
girl Of the flapper age think of some
thing else beside tea-ing, dancing,
drinking and smoking" And a final
paragraph: "Elinor recently returned
from a select French finishing school
at Sorbonne. She is the only unmar-
ried daughter of Dr. Dorrance. whose
wealth is estimated at fifty millions"
Now. here is a chance for soup-jug
Cling factory worker to make fifty mil
lion dollars.
JlARL CARROLL, the theatrical pro-
IL Queer. could buy carload of Mo
roccan girls for the price Of one bath
tub full Of champagne. Since Earl
was prohibited by puritanical city
government from expressing his gay
ETY. to his hearts content, he went to
Europe and few from Paris to Mo
rocco to witness the marriage of the
three sons of the Sultan to three
daughters of the desert. Carroll Is
not wasting his time. What he saw
there. in the way of nudity and aban-
don. should provide him with enough
Inspiration 70 rake in million dollars
from the bourgeoisie Of New York
without having to waste his cham
payne.
