MARY MOONEY

A STORY of hope deferred that maketh
the heart sick" was the life Of Mary
Mooney, who died at IS on the eve of Labor
day in San Francisco.
Eighteen years ago Mother Mooney saw her
son Tom snatched from the family, tried for
killing ten persons with bomb, convicted and
sentenced to hang. Never did she doubt what
the whole world now knows. that Tom was
innocent that he had been victmized by a
conspiracy During all those years she believed
that one day truth and justice would triumph
over class hatred to open San Quentin's great
prison gates for him.
Old as she was, recently she set out to rouse
the world to the horror of what California
was doing. She travelled 10000 miles, to the
capitals of Europe. and to Washington, and
pleaded with kings, dictators and Presidents.
She had begged five Governors for pardon,
written thousands of letters, made scores of
speeches in her Irish brogue.
Just before she died things looked brighter.
Upton Sinclair had promised Mooney a
pardon and had been nominated for Governor.
An appeal was being taken to the United
States supreme court. Hope lay in both direc-
tons.
Mary Mooney never will see her boy free
and vindicated. Will the rest f.us?

GRIM REMINDER

IF the last car of Russia has ghost, that
shade must have INDUCED in an ironic
chuckle or two the other day-a chuckle at
death-bed.
For blind, nearly deaf woman of 9O-odd
was dying in a Czechoslovakian village near
Prague. and the ghost of the last cars could
be pardoned if it found something grimly
amusing in the circumstances.
This woman was Katharine Breschko-
Breschkowskaya and since that name is
pretty long and unpronounceable, it is SIM
pier to refer to her by the title she used to
wear so proudly-"grandmothe of the Rus
sian revolution"
She was already an old woman when the
last Romanoff was shot to death in cellar at
Ekaterinburg; and before that time she had
spent no less than fifty years of her life in
one or another of the cars prisons for revo-
lutionary activities.
She had been one of that devoted band of
Russian dreamers who hated autocracy and
oppression and risked the worst that the car
could do to bring them to an end.
Well, these dreamers finally had their
way The cars government fell, the Sibe-
rian prisons we're emptied, and the great era
of democracy and freedom seemed at last
ready to dawn across Russia.
And then the revolution ran out from I'M
der its little grandmother.
Instead of freedom and democracy, Rus
STA got Communism. The car was dead, and
his mobiles either were dead or in exile; but
there was no place in the new order for those
who had given their lives to the fight against
czarism, unless they happened to believe in
the particular kind of revolution that Russia's
new rulers we're handing out.
So this aging veteran of the cars prisons
had to fee from Russia, just like any purse
proud nobleman. She went to foreign lands,
remarking that she had waited half century
for the downfall of the cars and was willing
to wait equally long, if need be, for the down
fall of the Bolsheviks.
And when she came to her death-bed, at
last. one of the friends who fastened to her
side was Alexander Kerensky-another revo-
Iutionary who found the revolution running
out from under him, and who dares not re-
turn to Russia.
So the cars ghost must have smiled
grim little smile A revolution is such an in
calculable thing. Starting one is like loosing
some great, uncomfortable force of nature.
The solid land itself seems to break up
and the one who started it all is no safer than
anyone else.

COME AND GET 1T"

ITO the music of this familiar dinner call
Chicago has started paying its teachers
their long overdue salaries.
The back pay came out of fat feed bag
of s263OOOOo, of which s225OO 900 was a fed
eral RFC twenty-year loan. This loan had
been made legal by new act lobbied through
the last congress by the Illinois delegation.
Certainly the teachers should be paid. But
Chicagos payof isn't pretty picture any
way you look at it. Why should Uncle Sam,
with all the legitimate calls on his generosity,
have to advance millions to rich city to pay
delinquent teachers salaries? Because that
citys politicians had tangled its tax and as
sessment system into hopeless snarl. Given
this situation and the specially framed law,
the federal government could do no less than
it did
Other mendicant cities should be warned
by the Chicago mess. Most of them probably
can not borrow under this new law which re-
quires revenue producing property as security
for federal loan.
They need to curb their politicians and re-
form their Anticipated and unfair tax methods

hopes that the cases Of petty graft and politics
that marred CwA's otherwise splendid services
are being eliminated from the state programs.
Such a wage leaves nothing for grafters and
exploiters.
The most hopeful sign is the governments
determination to offer a better answer than
charity. The rural rehabilitation program,
CCC. the subsistence homestead projects. other
experiments are feeling their way to more last
ing relief There should be more useful work
to At the training Of the unemployed instead
Of wasteful made-work. Chiefly, hope lies in
forthcoming plans for social security.
Fortunately the government realizes that
it must do more than just keep the wolf from
the doors of its destitute. In place of costly.
inadequate and unscientifc doles it is fornu-
lating plans for a nationwide system for
social security to put before the next congress.

ANOTHER WINTER COMING

THE critical nature of the unemployment
l. relief picture in the United States is
shown graphically by the news that just about
one-fourth of the inhabitants of New York
City now are receiving substantial relief OF
some kind.
Welfare Commissioner Hodson says that
fully 100000 New York families are on relief
now, and that the number may rise to half
million before the end of the year.
The effort to find the money to finance
this tremendous relief load is Earring New
York to its foundations, naturally enough.
Such load can not be borne indefinitely.
1t can not be borne at all without full pub
lie realization of the prime Importance OF
keeping people from starvation.
If the New York case we're an isolated in
stance. things would not be so bad But it is
not. All across the country the situation is
very similar 1t is not pleasant to think OF
what may happen if substantial and last
ing industrial revival does not come very soon.

MORE FOR FARMERS

EARM purchasing power is going to be up
l. this year, in spite Of the drought. Latest
estimate are that farm income from the
year will exceed 100000 OO0-fully bill
lion above last years figures.
A good part of this increase, Of course, is
due directly to the federal governments bene-
fit payments. These are expected to run to
approximately $78O,OoO,OOO. Higher prices for
farm produce will make up the rest Of the
anticipated increase.
Now while the bulk of this rise is artificial
the good effects OF it should be evident never
theless The farmer will be able to buy more
things this year than he bought last. This,
in turn, will help to stimulate industrial pro-
duction-and, we hope, will help to start us
on that upward spiral by which the prosperity
Of each class or group communicates itself to
the whole country.

By An Ex-Convict
I am writing in reference to an
article written by Ed Featherin-
gill, headed "Incompetency blamed
in Jail breaks"
I know from his article that he
is not informed as to the present
condition of places of incarcera-
ton. There always will be Jail
breaks under the existing form of
government.
Most inmates confined in in
situations in this country are there
because of the struggle for eX-
istence or what might be termed
economic prisoners.
Prison punishment in this state
and in other states is barbaric,
and if you would suffer the
punishment imposed on you by a
bunch of low minded guards, you
soon would become desperate and
you would be glad to obtain
liberty by escaping, thus risking
your life and if returned, more
time added to your sentence.
For very slight infraction Of
some prison rule, the warden

TUESDAY. SEPT. :. 1894
THE ANSWER

INDIANA should by all odds be the best gov
erned state in the country. Situated square,
" in the Valley Of Democracy" its people are
known throughout the world for an intense.
continuing interest in politics Theoretically.
an alert citizenship is the fulhllment Of the
American ideal.
Why then should the name Of Indiana have
become a synonym for lax law enforcement?
Why should We be celebrated throughout the
western hemisphere for the Dillinger mob?
For prisons that are mere sleeves? For courts
so lax that gangsterism laughs at them? For
the fact that great state has surrendered to
the underworld?
The Democrats have an answer. They Will
tell you that they have inherited nauseating
mess from previous Republican administra-
tons. which callously and stupidity sold out the
public interest to every vagabond special in
terest that came along with a twenty dollar
bill in its wallet.
The Republicans have an answer. They will
tell you the Democrats. elected to power by
voters Of both parties. have sacrificed trust
placed in them to build a wholly selfish and
bungling political machine-unable to fulfill
llG lAlluaAltlltdi oDllBdllOu VI BOFeIuIueuL,
protection Of lives and property.
Both are right. No state in modern times
has been victimized by such incredibly ignorant
and corrupt leadership as has Indiana. Not all
Republicans are knaves. Nor are all Demo-
Gratis fools. There are high-grade, public
minded individuals in both parties-men who
could restore this state to its traditional and
rightful place. if their respective machines
would allow it.
The answer to our law enforcement prob
lem is simple and inexpensive: take politics
completely out of the police and penal systems.
Civil service and the merit system can do it.
Give a young man a real chance to make life
career in the state police. in our prison admin
istration. Give him surety in his job a decent
salary. the right to pride in his work and a
pension for his dependents if he lays down
his life for his fellow-citizens.
That is a common sense, reasonable pro-
gram. which will be opposed to the last ditch
by the professional politicians of both parties
Why2 Because they wish to prostitute law
enforcement to keep themselves in Office.
Partisan politics has no place in this prob
lem. The voters of Indiana should remember
that. in the last analysis. they are not Demo-
Gratis or Republicans, but Americans.

REPORTS METEORITE
IN BRILLIANT FLIGHT

By Phillip w. Carpenter.
After reading my copy of The
Times, I was surprised not to see
something in print about the mete-
orite that fell at 8:46 p. m, Aug. %.
I have worked nights as a tele-
graph operator for the Pennsyl-
vania railroad for a period OF
twenty-seven years, and have seen
hundreds of meteorites, but nothing
like this one. 1t so happened that
I was looking out Of an east window
when suddenly the sky lighted up,
and instantly the meteor appeared
the most beautiful object I ever
have seen in the sky.
1t appeared the size of a large
barrel and quite close; in fact, I
thought it would fall in a field near
where I was. It's color was a bril-
liant blue and. it suddenly exploded
with quite a display.
Its flight duration, to my eye,
was about five or six seconds. l
wondered if any one reported this
to your paper. Undoubtedly, others
beside myself must have seen it. 1
would be pleased to know more
about this.

Former Convict Discusses Prison Life

Sometimes a man is punished
by being made to stand at at
tention in a small circle on the
floor for long lengths of time.
Try this. Just do without food,
except two thin slices of bread
and a cup of water three times
a day for a period of three days.
1t makes you very weak. Try
standing erect for five minutes
without moving your body or arms
or speaking a word and see how
you like it. That taxes every
nerve in your body and also every
muscle, and very soon you will
be so weak you hardly can stand
at all.
Everything produced in insti-
tutions in this state nets a large
profit for the state. Prison Off
Gals don't try to reform prisoners.
That would be impossible to I'M
dertake with degenerate guards,
many of whom do not have a
grade school education.
Men in prison should be taught
a trade or be able to attend
school and educate themselves, so
that they will be capable of earn
ing livings when released. There
should be more probation under
the direction of a probation Off
Ger who is fitted to help other
men.

A SPLENDID RECORD

ONE Of the most encouraging signs in mod
~ ern government is the fact that graft is
stin news. public official who conducts his
office with a decent regard for honor and
Justice is seldom in the headlines. People still
expect Just such behavior from those in whom
they repose their trust.
So Mayor Reginald Sullivan and his con-
troIler. Evans Woollen Jr.. have received little
attention from the press. Their administra-
ton has been untouched by even breath Of
scandal.
There have been no payless paydays for
city employees.
While bigger and richer cities have wall
lowed in bankruptcy. begged the federal gov
eminent for aid, the credit of Indianapolis has
remained sound.
Mayor Sullivan began his term with $751;
600 indebtedness wished on him by his pred
ecesscr. He will end it with a surplus OF
around quarter of million dollars.
We know of no other city of this size which
is even within reaching distance of a surplus.
Most municipalities are wondering where the
money is coming from for the next garbage
collection.
indianapolis has been through the worst
depression in the history of mankind and has
come out-with a surplus
City officials who can hang up such a rec
ord should have a special decoration invented
for them
