Main 9400 or Ind. 441 Rent sk for the Cireulatton In Lorna Doone the Ridd family fell into the power of John Fry, one of the hired men, by paying him more in the way of wages than the law allowed. By law, people were allowed to pay only so much; but the Ridds paid John Fry more, and he used their “crime” to extort other and further privileges from them! All of which is, somehow, brought to our minds by the awful state of things in South Africa, The “natural laborers of that region, according to a writer in the African World, the n of the white investors in the Dark Continent, are the Kaffirs. But the Kaffirs will not labor, says this indignant capitalist. Why will they not work? Because they can live nicely without! As if that were any reason! How can they live without work? Well—er—they do work a little, of course, but they have lands of their own, in @ sort of teservations called “kraals,” and by a short period of work on these lands, the Kaffirs are able to get along very well, and absolutely refuse to work for the purpose of “de- ing the country.” Sage i ‘Our shortage of labor,” says this writer in the African World, “is an“economic one, having its root in the system of land tenure by natives.” pi The remedy? It is not stated baldly, but it is broadly hinted. Rob the natives of their land, and they will have to work for someone else, or starve. “The spur of economic ure,” says our complainant, “must be applied to the mass of natives. All of which reminds us that the reason i fh Fry qwas able to command wages higher than the law allowed in the time of Lorna Doone, was because the t common lands of England had not then been fenced in and stolen from the “natives” of by the nobility. i ‘The cause of ity of labor” in all mew countrics is free lands. Free lands, or cheap lands, in any country will giske labor “scarce.” That is, it will make jobs more plenty than men. ‘This'is a bad thing for exploiters of labor; but t a fine thing it is for the -“natives,” whether they be irs, Britons, or Americans! The land system of any people — about as closely related to the wages thereof as Henry ge declared it to be. Ballinger has endorsed Humphrey for that life on the beach. No further arguments against the “lame duck” con- gressman are now necessary. Funny history repeats itself. Ten years the’ disheisl incest lnchaps rors’ calling.

It was done quictly, effectively, and with thorough organization, for the man behind the gun was Edgar C. Snyder, who ts now chairman of the campaign committee for George F. Cotterill, the progressive candi- date for mayor. Edgar C. Snyder does not permit any grass to grow under his feet. He knows what he wants, and he moves in a straight line to get it— and to get it In the quickest time. fo, while other progressives were quite content with the mere elec- tion of Poindexter, Bnyder perfect- ed the organization which gave to King county also a progressive re- publican central committee, Had the other counties done the same, we would have today a progressive state central committee, and we would be sure then that’ the state would not be sold out to a standpat Taft delegation, Started Hustiing When 6 Years Old.
