To Rest With Miners

To Rest With Miners
 Mt Olive, H., Dec, ] Op-Mother Jones will rest in death where she fought in life-beside her "boys." She willed that she be buried in the Mt. Olive Union Miners cemetery. the metropolis dedicated 10 the strikers killed in-the Virden mine riot Of 1898 Her grave will face the memorial. She recorded her wish three years ago in the Macoupin county court house.
 Green hills slope down 10 the ceIn- ,tery-hjlIs reminiscent Of County Cork. in Ireland. where Mother Jones was born Mary Harris more than century ago.
 On one Of these slopes one OC- tober day in 1898. the striking miners marching 10 the Nirden mine in protest against the importation Of Negro strike breakers, were halted by guards outside a stockade In the ensuing fighting, eight strikers were shot to death.
 General Alexander Bradley led the main driveway from the plot re served for Mother Jones.
 Often Visited Graves
 Five Of those killed in the Virdcn riot-Whom labor calls martyrs 10 uniouism'-sleep ln the Mt. Olive memorial Mother Jones often came 10 the graves Of her brave boys"
 After the peace between the strik- CTS and the operators, the mine unions sought 10 purchase q part Of both Mt Olive cemeteries for their dead. but their offers were rejected.
 So the Mi Olive Union Miners cemetery Nas laid out, the only recropoljs Of organized American la hor. Here any union miner may be inferred without cost.
 Plan Funeral
 Since Mother Jones life began drifting into the dusk, labor leaders here have planned for her funeral
 They want her body to lie in state in the Mt. Olive labor assembly. Her picture in the room has been draped in black. On the same panel. a painting Of the sinking battleship Maine sets the time of the Virden riot-a miners fight that eliminated in the establishment Of the eight hour working day
 The miners of southern Illinois are torn apart now in a war over control of the United Mine Workers Of America.
 But the death Of Mary Jones. the Mother Machree Of labor. has re- united them in an armistice of rev. erence.
 Born In Cork
 Mother Jones saw plenty of hard = ship and trouble in her early years and the conflicts of the American working man appealed both to her sympathies and her love Of daring. She was born in Cork. Ireland, May |. 1830. Her father. Richard Har- ris, an Irish agitator, came to Amer ica and obtained a job with rail- road construction crew in Toronto. His family soon joined him.
 Mary's first experiences in the working world, which started soon after she finished common school. alternated between sewing and teaching. Her first teaching position was in convent at Monroe, Mich.

 Last May { Mother Jones-she Was seldom known by her full name ot Mrs Mary Harr1s Jones-cele- ura,ed her io0rA birthday. Labor leaders from all over the country gathered al the Burgess home. Mother Jones insisted on being talk en down stairs 10 greet them and see her birthday cake, The day was a great one for Mother Jones in an- other respect, for a telegram arriv- od from John n. Rockefeller, Jr., Of the family against whom she had fought bitterly.
 Calls Him Good sport
 Hes a damn good sport" said Mother Jones. I've licked him many times. but we've made peace"
 Another tribute 10 Mother Jones came from Emalino Pitt. United States commissioner connected with the office ot the secretary Of labor. She sad:
 Mother Jones was Americas $ greatest woman patriot-a great soul Her entire life has been given m service 10 humanity She is one who Uaged valiant battle in the interest of that divine right of hu- man justice to all men. She stood for all that was noblest and best in Womanhood. for the defense Of help less childhood believing as Christ taught, Tnasmuch as ye have done it unto the least one Of these yet have done it unto me"
 Mother Jones wanted the world 10 know or the kindnesses of the Burgess couple and others who have been her friends In q statement dictated during her last illness she gave humble thanks for kI1dnesses that have been shown her.

Relief from Gas
Stomach Pains
Dizziness

The doctors tell US that 80 per cent
of all sickness is due tc stomach and
bowel troubles. You can't be well II
your digestion is bad; you are likely
to get sick unless you relish food and
digest it properly.
Tanlac has a wonderful record as a
relief from digestive troubles, even
those of years standing.
Local people, many Of whom you
know, are highly endorsing Tanlac.
For example, Mrs. Ellen White says:
"For years / suffered from indiges-
ton. l got no relief FROM anything
until | took Tanlac. After my fourth
bottle, feel like a new person and
have fine appetite"
If you suffer from gas, pains In the
stomach or bowels, dizziness, nausea,
constipation, or torpid liver; if you
have no appetite, can't sleep and are
nervous and all run down, you need
Tanlac. It is good, pure medicine,
made of roots, herbs and bsrks. Get
a bottle from your druggist today.
Money back if it doesn't help you.
Accept no substitute.

DRY PLANS HANG
ON TRANSFER

All proposed plans for a reor-
ganization of the prohibition
service are contingent on the
passage by Congress of the bills
transferring the Dry Bureau from
the Treasury to the Department
Of Justice. .
The suggestion has been made
that the number of enforcement
districts be reduced from 26 to
TO- the latter number conforming
to the judicial circuit lines.
Another proposal was for or.
ganization on judicial district lines
and that with an assistant
United States attorney to direct
enforcement in each district.
Should the reduction to 10 be
made it would mean the abandon
ment Of 16 district headquarters.
although officials said that no
doubt deputy enforcement offic-
ials would be detailed for those
sections.
There are many candidates for
the potential post of prohibition
director, including several Of the
present prohibition administra-
tors, but Justice Department offic.
ialS said that no tentative selec-
ton had been made. If Attorney
General Mitchell follows his
policy of the past, 1t was thought
probable that he would bring in
some new blood" for his enforce.
ment machine.

CENSUS To TELL
| WHERE ABODE
IS APRIL |

AL though the entire month of
April will be needed to complete
the taking, population figures in
the 1880 census will be compiled
as of April /.
i If. for example, person dies
between April / and the time the
cenSuS-taker arrives, he will be
counted. Children born after April
4 will not be counted, although
they may be two or three weeks
old by the time the cenSus-taker
arrives.
Getting everybody counted once
IN the place where they belong
and nobody counted more than
pnce is one of the biggest prob
aems the Census Bureau has to
consider, for each district must
be credited with its proper popu-
katton if apportionment Of rep
tesentation in Congress Is to be
borrect.
s Counts Depends on Abode
! Each census-taker will count a
plumber of persons who are not
actually in his district when the
eount is taken. Among these will
pc: Persons temporarily absent.
persons attending schools or col.
geses located in other districts,
nd persons Ill In hospitals or
~anatoriums in other districts.

Lies, a question of where a per.
Jon votes, or where he pays taxes
pr owns property. It is a uues-
aen Of where he lives; the usual
place of abode" ... ... "..
I Students in colleges and uni
RersitieS who have no homes else
where will be enumerated in the
District in which the school Is
located. Teachers will be enumer-'
Ated at the place where they are
keaching when the census is
taken.
Employment Question
: Among the IS questions to be
asked about each person will be
''were you actually at work yes
terday?" Those who answer mo"
will also be asked whether they
have employment and are temp
orarily out of work, or whether
they have no work at all.
Those persons who are found
10 be entirely unemployed will be
asked the following four ques-
tions:
| !. Are you able to work?
L 2. Are you looking for a job?
y 3. For how many weeks have
you been without a job?
4. Reason for being out Of a
dob, or for losing your last job.

M. Doran is not a candidate for
the new job. He will either stay
in the Treasury to take charge

This is the most important issue
before the American people. Be-
side it, all others sink into insig-
nificance. We can make no pro-
gress along the lines of social re-
form or betterment if our people
are to be reduced to the level of
poverty for the masses accepted
in the old World. Millions of our
people have come here from Eur
ope to seek better conditions of
life. They do not propose now to
be dragged down to the European
and Asiatic level in order that a
few men here may make greater
profits temporarily. It is time
that we should rally around
new Declaration of independence,
and fight for the right of the AM
erican people to enjoy the heritage
which has come down to them I'M
der institutions which make the
measure of national prosperity the
degree of comfort, luxury and OPP
portunity, in which the average
man can live. We are asked to
turn aside from the national and
international policies which have
made this the mosl prosperous
land in the world. For a dozen
years we have been witnessing the
disastrous effects of turning our
backs on those policies. Let us
turn back from the swamp into
which we are invited to the solid
ground upon which Washington
and Lincoln, Roosevelt and Nc
Kinley stood. Upon our ability
to do this against the great finan-
cial influences which seek to lead
our people astray, depends our alb
ility to make and keep America
the promised land of opportunity
for common men.

Administrator Hoover after the
World war, gave that as his reason
