Wash, matter Spt Ht ott, 0 comes ‘oor Enemies of Society ‘There are two classes of men in the world who are the enemies of society : opposed to the welfare and happiness of mankind as a whole At the one extreme are those who exalt property rights above human rights, whose motto is, “Business Is Business,” who, in order to more strongly entrench the ad vantage and privilege of great riches, seek to 3 tively — every aspiration for better things that may spring up in the heart or mind of the laboring class. At the other extreme are those who, smarting under in justices to themselves and their fellow workmen and being without the mental balance to adopt a rational course, resort to violence—the knife, the pistol, the bomb—in a misguided attempt, utterly abhorrent to all right thinking men, to solve their personal problems and the age old social and economic problems in a perfectly futile and indefensible way. s These two classes are equally the enemies of society. But, is not the former more dangerous because its crimes are not yet identified as crimes, either in the public mind or on the Statute books? Society long since defined direct murder and found a way to punish it by death or life imprisonment. But society has not yet found a way to deal with those enemies w ho, from their entrenched position at the top of the social order, take their ever-increasing tol! of the blood and sweat of the millions and millions of their fellowmen; who force women into prostt oe ition aa eeoond-c i) UD vo tx onthe, Bix monitha B18 | Enemies in that each stands for things} THE STAR—WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 6, 1911 average imag: | that raising chickens means . nothing more than going out every morning and throwing |f some corn to} them.” We bung on straps tll our hands were blue, We waited on cars and ounsed clean through, We coughed up nickels till our fin gers ached, We stood rotten service un our conscience quaked; And then when we got right good and mad.

But =< virtues, gone mad, light the fuse and pull the trigger The McNamaras are guilty not alone of murder but of the gankest treachery to the cause of labor. No penalty that society might have meted out could be too severe God speed the day when society shall similarly define and punish the crimes of those other enemies of society -the men at the top, the breeders of hate and violence in the heart of the ‘man at the bottom. And these two classes are the enemies of society because they make for war between the two brothers—labor and capi tal. Two brothers, both the servants of man, who should work together for human comfort, welfare and happiness. Because of fanatic McNamara, the fair-minded employer will be more apt to distrust his employes. Because of the merciless master, labor will be more apt to/f distrust its employer. f And distrust breeds hate and violence, and so the vicious circle is complete. GOOD EVENING!

A Great Man’s Daughter | Miss Laura Harlan, daughter of the late Justice Harlan, deprived | ‘of her means of support by her father’s death, goes to work to earn her| That sets a fellow thinking Evidently, John Marshall Harlan died poor. “Every brave man, in ‘one way or another, gives his life away," said Carlyle. Justice Harlan! ‘was a brave man; his life didn't “pay” in the ordinary meaning of the term. He might have made millions as a corporation lawyer in private practice. He might have enjoyed extraordinary opportunities for “in-| Yestments” in the thirty-four years that he held a place of tremendous power over big business, but—he died poor . Do you know, we have an idea that if Justice Harlan looks down from above, he is not a bit ashamed to see his daughter ‘ning her!

Enough toys for thousands} of youngsters are displayed To get a clear view of the drift of things in this country, take INi-| nols as a concrete example. During the past 10 years, for the first time | in its history, the rural population actually declined—fell off 45,000 Chicago alone tiow has 49 per cent of the entire population and waxes bigger every day. Thus the number of persons engaged in providing food gets less and less; the number consuming food, larger and larger. We are not complaining or drawing pessimistic conclusions from these facts. We call attention to modern tendencies. Doubtless they mean other changes, but they should be such as will make the world a better place to live in. ——— — = > In the Editor’s Mail taor xtar: Knowing ‘The Star is the only paper from which a poor man can get justice, 1 wish to call your attention to a patent Medicine faker who has been selling his dope to poor working men, who are being caught like flies.
