CIRCULATION WEEK ENDING-SEPT, 11, 1920 10,941 NEW YOEK'S BOMB OUTERAGE. « New York has experienced a bomb explosion as its result a loss of life which °h cannot fail to arouse every agen- cy of city, state and country for the apprehension and punishment of the in- stigators as well as those who actually did the dirty work. Whatever may have been the object of the explosion at that point, if there was any significance in the location, it cannot fail to be realized that human. ity against whom there could have been no feeling has been made to suffer the brunt of it. Death and injuries have been caused withy impunity and appar- nothing worse than the partial wrecking of private and federal proper- ty has been accomplished. That this bomb explosion had been carefully planned is indicated by the cireumstances. Efforts to regard it as an accident are entirely upset by the losures which have been made by e police. That it was a deliberate case of planting a high powered explosive in the front of the establishment of a well known financial firm seems to be clear- 1y established. “Whether it is the begin- ning of another series of bomb outrages or whetber it is the result of a deter- mination to use direct methods instead oying the mail for such dastard- remains to be seen. It is made pl that red influences are still work in the country, that chists are within our midst pre- : y wreck property but to take the life of any human being that may be within the immediate vicinity of their operations when they get ready to act and that in spite of such methods as are being employed to frustrate their efforts greater vigilance and adequate punishment needs to be employed for the on of such a dangerous ele- becomes increasingly evident mpossible to escape just such ges if the toleration of those who flagrantly disregard law and order is going to be permitted. It is to be sin- cerely hoped that New York will be able a4 out more about the plot and the ors than it has been able to do ome of its other murderers. BOOSTING THE LIMIT. Without having produced proof of his claims, or in fact taken the trou- o personally appear and take ad- vantage of the opportunity that was af- forded him to tell the world under oath what he had been so glibly uttering from the political platform, Governor “ox gives way to more of his irrespon- eibla declarations and now says that the campaign fund which he alleges the ublicans are raising to buy the pres-| dency amounts to $30,000,000 instead | of $15,000,000. Just how when and where the in- Tease took ace he doesn't attempt to say. In fact he is even less expHcit in regard to the larger fund than he was relative to the smaller one. Thus far he has not produced a quota sheet to back up his claims and he doesn't say whether he is still multiplying by two or four or six. Of course if he thinks that the figures which have been given by the republi- can officials as the ones denoting the fund the party is undertaking to wraise should ke muitiplied by six he will e able to get scmewhere close to his new total. But he is still trying to feed the imagination of some of the people by dwelling on conditions which do not exist and which neither he nor bis representatives have been come an where near proving, w total, coming as it did when able to osure was made by the Maine that republican strength had ded expectations, may indicate the evident movement by trying to con- the Westerners by means of a lot upported statements that the ade of green cheese. What t of his $15,000,000 claitn we isciosed in the returns from at state, and it is more than probable e west will steer for the side of ty and not be carried away with a lot of allagations which are foundation- rresent rate of progress for it will not require many weeks will be put up into the billions the standard bearer of the demo- party. THE RIGHT DECISION. General endorsement will be given to the action of the policy committee of the anthracite miners in reaching. the de- cision recommending the issuance of a proclamation to the men to the effect that they return to their work at once. The miners' organization has approved the award. Under what amounts to the same thing as a strike the men are re- aining from returning to their work and fulfilling the contract into whieh their organization, authorized to act for them, has entered. They have found that such a movement was useless in trying to sway the president into re- opening the award. They have suc- ceeded in greatly reducing the produc- tion of coal but they have failed to profit thereby They have made the coal users of the country face a serious sit- uation and paved the way for more money being exacted from them in order to keep warm the coming winter. The dscision that the men should re- turn to work at once is qufte in accord committee any plan for trying to break the contract just as soon as the men are back at work. Such an idea has been suggested but the president, it would seem, disposed of an encourage- ment in that direction when he indicated the men that a contract could not be nsidered a scrap of paper. ‘Whatever ig done with the committee recommendation or Whatever is the final outcome of the present situation, it becomes more and more evident every day thal the situation surrounding the production znd distribution of ceal in this country is far from being on a pre- per fasis. There has been the regula- tion of a lot of business which it cannet help Feing felt didn't need it 2ny more than the coal industry does today. WHERE DEVELOPMENT IS NEEDED ‘While the country is feeling the effects’ of the newsprint shortage many ways there cannot fail to be interest in the opinion given by Chief Greeley of the: United States forestry service to the effect that Alaska contains resources sufficient to produce 1,560,000 tons of, paper each vear. Chief Greeley has been making an investigation in that region for the purpese of getting a bet- ter idea regarding the résources as. to timber and water power of the national forests. What he finds is perhaps ne more than should have been expected. It is fully understood what a command- ing position Canada holds in the news- print business because of the vast ex- tent of its pulp making forests. Simi- larly there was reason to expect that Alaska would be equally productive in that direction, and while other means of meeting the situation are being work- ed out another source of supply is re- vealed which simply requires develop- ment. This calls atteation again to how rieh in resources is that territory way up to the northwest. When it was purchased the sum paid was cogsidered a large amuont for an unknown quantity but when it is realized how greatly it has served as a producer the purchase price sinks into insignificance. And in spite of all that has been gotten from there in the way of supplies Alaska is far from being developed. The fact is that we have failed even now to appreciate what an important deal was completed when that territory was acquired. The contributions it has made have gradually awakened a great- er interest therein and we are gradually| coming to realize that more instead of! less attention should be devoted to its proser development, Some years ago government assist- ance was given for the building of a railroad into that region that coal lands might be reached and transportation furnished for meving other supplies in and out. That marks a good beginning but it Alaska is going to be permitted to do what it can there must be more at- tention devoted to it than has ever been given before. ENFORCEMENT WORK. With the shifting of James Shevlin, the government prohibition enforcement officer who has been looking after the liquor violations in the New York dis- trict, to another post and the replacing of him with Chief Boyd of the revenue department the metropolis has reason to wonder whether it is going to be changed from the condition of being “more wide open than ever” in the way of booze or Whether just ome of those moves which threatens - trouble but amounts to nothing has been made. Indications would seem to point to the fact that an effort was going to be made to clean up the city ant that a new broom had been selected for the purpose. That Shevlin should be re- talmed in the service though shifted to another point indicates that thers was no sidestepping his duty in connectien with the existing “wetter® than ever” conditions but that he didn't . measure up to the size of the job. It remains to be seen whether his successor will and what different methods he will em- ploy to do so. But while there may seem to be an effort to better conditions in the me- tropolis the mere changing of the en- forcement officer there indicates only a lecal rather than a general undertaking. And yet from the condijions that prevail in other and less populated localities it is evident that the whole work of en- forcing the federal amendment must be carried on along different lines if pre- hibition is going to amount te any- thine. ‘As at present plenty of proof is avail- able every day that those who main- tained that prohibition could net be en- forced were justified In their statements. It is true that a government force for such work and the preper ceoperation from the states cannct be obtaired in a minute, but when an effort is made to clean up New York it should not be over- looked that there is a similar need pre- vailing throughout ths covmtry, Streets and the police courts all show hew wet the season has been. EDITORIAL NOTES. The miners are making the big mis- fake of digging for trouble instead of coal. The outlaw strikes are not proving the success that those responsible for them expected. Now that school has cpened there arc those parents who figure their long va- cation has begun. The man on the cormer says: No oné complains much over wrinkles that are on the other person. Those who felt they couldn't afferd to hoard 25-cent sugar are now thanking (heir stars that they didn't plunge. Governor Cox says prohibition is a dead issue. There are these who are able to find plenty of kick in spite of it. When Attorney General Palmer goes on the stump for Cox he ought to com- fine himself to telling how he has re- fluced the cost of living. The little Roosevelt says Harding is old fashioned. If standing for the na- toin's welfare is old fashioned the coun- ty wilP agree with hin.. There are those who feel Governer Cox's throat would no. be so bad had he not swallowed that tale about a slush fund to buy the presidency. It might be well to find out before next Tucsday whether the legislature can do just as it pleases .or whether there are comstitutioual restrictioms. Complaint is made because parents do not impress safety regulations upon the with the action of the officials in accept- ing the award. The attenpt to force the president to get for them more than the facts ns presented to the commis- sion warrant is plainly unjust, and it is 1o be hoped that there is not involved ’a the recssmmendalipns AR ke maliav. children, when adults are ust as heed- less in many cases as are the children. “What's the good ef it?” demanded the senior tragically. “Here T have to write a twenty page term paper on thropolegy and everything—so I can’t go with you to the movies, thanks. Isn’t it awful?” 7 “Outrageous!” declared the handsome young football star, sitting down beside her. “That’s an awful course for you to take. Nothing in it shorter than five syl- lables—didn’t any one tell you? And a term paper on top of it! Come on and go—it's Harold Hoteyes and Lucille Lu- cerne and you shouldn't miss ‘em.” “Oh!” wailed the pretty senior, “and I was crazy to see that film. Sutth?; mperhuceheinwwuldlshw have done it before;” only I've always been too busy. Il have to sit .up all night. 1 just know I shal! Anyhow, Clarence, what would you say anthre- pology really was?” “I can‘t bear to see you looking ®so worried,” declared the young man. “It isn’t right fer yoy te grow pale over a thing like that, lith! I think I shall g0 and spedk to Prof. Grimm myself and tell him what's what!"” “Mercy, no!” cried the pretty semior. “In the first place, he never would hear you and in the next he weouldn't pay the least attention to you if he did. He never pays any attention to us. Why, if I walked up to his desk and said, "Prof. Grimm, I have the small pox and the girl next to me is coming dewn with leprosy’ he’d say ‘Yes, yes’ and continue writing in his notebook, and that is all that would happen ! “They say that Prof. Grimm never reads the girls’ term papers anyhew, be- cayse he clatms that women haven't brains eneugh to study anthropology, so I want to write something perfectly won- derful and stun him into an apology!” “I am sure you will’" the handsome football man told her. “If’ he doesn't give you an A I'll puneh his face! Mak- ing you work this way! The meovie will take only an hour and a half, Edith— you will feel so much more like working it you go to it and let your brain rest up, you know!” “No Clarence,” ‘the pretty senier told him resolutely. “I must work every min- ute! What did you write about when you took the course?”. “I?" echoed the handsome football man a trifle startled. “Oh, just a—er—gener- A PAPER al sort of paper. Why, you can say that it's a wonderful study—thatll Jolly Grimm—and terribly interesting and something about the races of men—oh, you know! They say Harold Hoteyes does a leap for life in this picture that beats anything else all hoilow!” “Lote of big men say the movies are just as educatiional as—as anything,” said the pretty senior. “I suppose loads of girls would just go and let’ the term paper wait but I am not so careless as that., It wouldn't take me long to write it if 1 had any idea how to go on after I had started. The ideas you have given me are simply marvelous, Clarence! You don’t know what ~ help you are! Twen- ty pages is an awful lot, don’t you think? Maybe I should have stayed home from the movies before and worked on it and not waited till the last minute—I'm get- ting so nervous !” “Pooh!” said the handsome football man. “Now, Edith, you must stop this warrying or you'll make yourself ill! I am sure if Prof. Grimm knew how you ‘were slaving over it and hew wrought up you are he'd be the first one to recom- mend that you drop it and get a little recreation! Change of thought and all that, you know ! I guess you've forgotten Grimm,” sighed the pretty senior. “Oh, Clarence, the more I think of what is before me the more frantic I get! If T flunk the course I can't graduate! I don't belleve he ever did really define authropology— he just talked. What'll I do?" “I don’t care whether you ever gradu- ate or not,” declared the handsome foot- ball man. ‘“When—er—when we are m- m-married and I introduce you and say, ‘this is my w-w-wife” I shan't feel at all obliged to add, ‘She didn't get any ered- its in her anthropology course, but T love her just the same.’ So you see it doesn't make any difference! Get your wrap and come on!" “Wh-why, Clarence!” gasped the pret- ty senior, never heard such talk! May- be 1 am working too hard, though, and perhaps it would do me good to stop for an hour or so—anyhow, I simply must see that movie! I may get an idea for my paper there ! “I wouldn’t be surprised,” said the handsome football man happily. — Ex- change. IN THE DAY’S NEWS Minsk. “Ome of the least interesting among Russian cities in its physical aspects, Minsk has an ecomomic history that helps in understanding how Bolshevism spread so readily among the Russian people,” says a National Georgfaphic Society bul- letin cencerning the city where the Poles and the bolsheviks have been meeting to discuss peace terms. “The industrial history of Minsk is. es- pecially significant in view of present conditions in Russia. It was one of the centers Where ideas long germinated which” blossomed forth .so suddenly into bolshevism under the hothouse influences of war distress. There, in the early nine- ties of the last century, a group of dilettantes formed a Working Man's Union, later mote accurately termed the Union for Strugle. Promulgation of lit- erature, smuggled inte the country or printed in secret, was a major activity of this group in Minsk. Few working- men belonged to it. “In the course groups, working i of five years these Moscow, St. Peters- burg and Minsk, had accumulated a num- ber of followers, few of whom agreed. They mave wide publicity to the dectrines of Marx, mixed indiscriminately with every variety of radicalism, native and imported. - With such a diversity of aims little was accomplished, and it was with the hope of formulating a definite programme that the Union for Strugele and a committee of the Jewish Bund heid their notable cenvention at Minsk in 1838, From that meeting arose the So- cial Demoeratic Working Men’s Party. “The professed aims of various groups at that conference have a familiar ring. One urged that labor séek ‘complete lib- eration from the yoke of capital,’ another broadly declared for ‘immediate improve- ment of the condition of every working man,’ a third frankly provided that the mass of their adherents sheuld not have a voice in the direetion of the group, but rather should be ‘disciplined by con- tinuous agitation.” “Once mere Minsk figured in an in- teresting chapter of Russla's ecenomic history when Znbatev set two women to organize a labor party, among the Jews, under police protectien. Originally an agent provecateur, Zubatov, when pro- moted to a high office ameng the political police, undertook to organize labering men so their growing discontent would Sale sold.

In Minsk a rival organization, the Universal Jewish Labor Union, immediately was formed which quiekly eliminated the ‘po- lice union.’ “Minsk is built upen the Svislotck river, nearly. 500 miles southwest of Moscow by rail, and has a pepulation of 105,000, fully half of whom are Jews. It was the capital of the old Russian government of Minsk, which included some of the least fertile and least developed regions of the fallen empire. “Its annual fair, held in March, fur- nished the ghief event in the town's lifs. Its trade, mainly in cern, lumber and leather, gained perceptibly when it be- came the intersection point of the rail- way from Moscow to Warsaw and that from Libau to Kharkov. Formerly it maintained a municipal pawnshop. “The clty has passed through the hands of many masters. In the time of Will- iam the Conqueror it was a dependency of the Princess of Podolsk.

A young soclety woman had been visiting at her meother's home for about a week and during that time had start- led the entire family by some of the statements she had made and some of the things she had dome. But none had had the courage to criticise her until one day her grandfather, who made his home there, said: “Helen, my dear, if yeu live to be ten years older you will then be very much like your mother when she was your age.” Helne dimpled at the evident compli- ment. “Net hardly that long, grandfa- ther,” she demurred. “I knew that wo- men grew older much more rapidly than they do new, but still—" “FHddlesfocks!” intérrupted grandfa- ther, “I wasn't thinking of them grow- ing older. I dom't know anything about that. What I was thinking about was how much faster they grew wiser.” Remarkable Women.

Cutting another reed he found sound again, but of a different pitch, and by combining a number of theke reeds, aft- er probably many efforts, he evolved a set of perhaps an octave of consecutive tones, and thus developed what are now called Pan's pipes, the first organ. Then someone discovered that the ad- din gof a mouthpiece made the blowing easier, and that instead of many tubes, one alone could be lengthened or short- ened by the use of finger holes, and =0 the shepherd’s pipe. The shepherd soon learned that by using a pipe in each hand he could produ¢e twe tones at the same timy, and here we have the begin- ning of harmeny. ‘The invention of the bellows, probably with the blacksmith's forge, furnishing a means for obtaining more wind, made if pessible to use larg- er pipes and more of them, and in this have the foundation of the modern pipe with the addition of a keyboard we organ. The organ of today has three depart ments—blowing plant, action and pipes. The first usually consists of a fan blow- er, the wind at a pressure of from four to ten inches by the water gauge, be- ing conveyed to the organ chest, a box of about eight feet in length containing the valves which admit the wind to the pipes, which rest upon the tep in double rows. The organ key desk contains ahe keys, from two to five sets of five octaves each; the pedal keys, which are the bass of the instrument and whyh are played by the feet; the stop knobs or tablets, one for each row of pipes; the couplers, for connecting the different keybdards Catarrh Of The Stomach Is Dangerous “Thousands Have It and Don't Knew It,” Says Physi quently Mistaken for In —Heow to Recognize and Treat, “Thousands of people suffer more or | less constantly f(rem furred, coated | tongue, bad breath, sour, burning stemach, frequent vomiting, rumbling in stomach, bitter eructations, gas, wind and stomach acldity and call it indigestion, when ig reality their trou- ble is [ catarrh of the ue’ to stomach,” writs c 'w York physi- ian.
