Constance Talmadge, motion pic
ture actress, filed in the superior "
court, today a suit for divorce from
radi
cals within it. Until organized labor cleans its own houst its
essentially righteous cnuse. based upon a square deal for the working
man is headed for the rocks
This bombing outrage in Chicago may or may not have been the,
work of organized labor, until the ease has been tried in the courts,
it is only fair for the people as a whole to reserve judgment.
But with one recognized labor leader an ex-convict, with two
others convicted of participation in highway robbery, and with
threats of violence against the Landis award a matter of common
knowledge, organized labor hasnly itself to Manic, that public sus
picion is aroused against it. 1
The vast majority of the rank and file of organized labor are law
ridding and loyal American citizens, lint they have too long, actpii
eseod particularly in the large cities, to radical manipulation and
control. The time has come, it has been here in fact, for several
years, for this decent and fair-minded majority to assert its au
thority and elear its ranks of llolshoviks and bomb throwers, putting
its ship on an even and self-respecting keel.
Ben W. Hooper, chainniyi of the I'nited States railroad labor
board gave an address yesterday at Toronto, Canada, before the rail
road brotherhood convent ion, which was very much to the point. lie
said:
"I am increasingly imp-rossoa with the dominant importance
of the human clement In all la bo r otmtroversiea.
'There can in- rtnlity be no such thinsr a a conflict between
capital and labor. Capital la only the accumulated result of labor
The capital of today is the labor of yesterday. There may be a
controversy between the man who furnishes the labor of yester
day and the man lio contributes the labor of today. This la merely
a contest between man and man and not between the laboring
mankind some gigantic ogre as the soapbox orator so vigorously
proclaims.
"As I sit upon the railroad labor board I see before nte men
animated by the selfish instincts of human nature. On the one
hand are the men who represent the owners of the labor of yes-
terday, now typified by dollars, tracknice and general equipment.
On the other hand- is the living, pulsating labor of today. They are
essential to the efficient operati on of railroads.
"The only thing for which we can reasonably hope is that, as
the years go by the beneficlent s pirit of Christianity will soften
the hearts of men into a finer and deeper sense of brotherhood."
This spirit once made the controlling spirit of organized labor, and
the controlling spirit of organized capital, as well, and the great
dangers now confronting this country socially and industrially will
vanish as night vanishes before day.
Let organized labor initiate this policy. For the abuses of organ
ized labor, and the dangers now confronting it, render its action the
more imperative.

What I have said Is preliminary to

I have no disposition st this time

democrats take care of their troubles
without republican assistance. We
have enough of our own.

In the deplorable contentions that are
agitating and distracting this com
munity today they wlll advertise
themselves as Unfit hold a posi
tion on the bench ol this district.
Personally I look upon the position
of Judge as one of great responsibility
and dignity, any of us at any time
may be compelled to go Into court to
defend our life and reputation or our
property, and I im lure we Would
want to feel that we s-ijre appearing

judgment It U a grave mistake to try
to force these Judicial candidates Into
taking part through the newspapers
or otherwise In thts.'ruck of racial,
religious and factional animosity. If
this course is to be pursued logically
some good but fanatical citizen will
come out and challenge one or both
of our candidates to state whether
hey belong to the Knights of Colum

secret obligation to give their first
allegiance to the pope at Home.
To certain republicans who appear
to be greatly disturbed over the pres

hat our candidates take sides In the
public press I will say this. that

able to state that neither Mr. New

If between now and the 19th the

COMMUNICATIONS
Regarding Rural Schools
To the Editor: So much has been
said lately againgt the rural schools
and in favor of closing them and trans
porting the children to the city schools
that I feel that I must say something
for the "country bcIkjoI."
At first I was In favor of transport
ing; "Why yes, it will do away with
our petty neighborhood school fusses".
give our children an equal chance with
the city children, and take so much
responsibility from our shoulders; in
fact it will be just like having a nurse
to mother one's babies instead of do-'
ing it ourselves.
But when my little girl complained
"Mama, please don't send me away to
'town school' where I'll have to be
away from you and sinter and brother
all day long," I then began to see her
side of the situation, and I began to
realize how I Bhould have felt if my
parents had sent me away and de
prived me of the "dear old barefoot
school day$."
Who among us parents would part
with the memories of wading In the
'brook or ditch, romping on the grass
I that had no "keep of f" signs infesting
it, snaring lizards, picking flowers-and
finding blrdnests at recess and noon?
Learning nature study as It can be
learned only in the country. Our chil
dren deserve as good aswe got.
A few days ago my little one came
in and said, "Mama, I told Sammy
Jones I found a dandelion and he said
What's a dandelion? Don't he really
know? He s been to school." Yes, he
has attended several terms, but each
in the ity schools. For my part I'd
rather my six or even eight year old
could discriminate between the songo
an oriole and a blackbird, and the ap
pearance of dandelion and buttercup
(and . I have met high school seniors
who could not) than have so much
technical knowledge. Every child
should have a taste of both rural and
city school life and If they don't get
the rural training at the tender age
when they should be close to us when
will they get It? We have to trans
port them for high school. So let's im
prove our country schools so we may
keen them closer to us, closer to
Nature and closer to God.
The last ten or fifteen years has
marked a great decrease in the coun
try schools with a corresponding in
