Professor Scott Nearing was dis
charged from the Pennsylvania Uni
versity because his social researches
ns made public by him, and more
especially his statements relative
to female and child labor, gave of
fense to Big Business. Now there
was nothing either exceptionally
radical or exceptionally revolution
ary about Scott Nearing’s views and
he could hardly be termed a mild
socialist. But—“give a dog a bad
name and hang him". TTie other
day when Professor Nearing was to
lecture before the Toledo House
wives League an invitation was ex
tended to the eouncilmen of the
city to hear him. Thereupon said
one of them in protest “He is a man
that it is unfit anyone should heir
speak”. Two men neld similar
views. Yet it is safe to say beyond
what they had imbibed from some
papers regarding Nearing, they
didn't know a thing about him. lo
such heights of intelligence do the
brains of eouncilmen attain!

A caption to a newspaper story in
sin exchange says “Elephant breaks

rizes Town.” It is quite unnecessary
to add that this is not the G. O. P.
Kenus of the animal, and the city
wherein the occurrence took place
was not at Chicago—nor at Seward.
open shop.
The fight which is made against
the closed shop and lor the open
whop by employers is merely a con
tusion of issues. What is being
fought against is the union shop
and what is sought after is the
non-union shop. To declare that in
the open shop there is no discrimi
nation practiced may theoretically
be all right, but practically and ac
tually it is not correct. The open
shop like the open mine is gener
ally the mine where the union man ;
cannot get work—where the prefer- ,
once is given to (lie non-union man ■
and tlie man who is known as the j
union member g uerally gets his ,
walking papers.
The unionists know that. The v j
knowalso to what length the com

operatives to keep themselves
acquainted with the views, opini

to -uquire cir. /.unship in the United
States for which in early days his
co-religionists luul done so much

imperishable name of Whittier, only

upon Judge Boyle with an indig
nant rebuke of such pussy footed
xnollycoddleism refused to grant
the citizenship petition of the
Quaker. It is pertinent and in
order however to point out that for
the same reason Judge Boyle would
be under the painful necessity of
refusing citizenship papers to Jesus
Christ if He came to Camden? Yet
Boyle doubtless would bitterly re

In fact we will bet a dollar to a
doughnut that he would fight at the
drop of a hat if anyone denied that
he was anything but a follower 01
Christ. How remarkable is the de

days.
THK AGE LIMIT.
The recent papers contain all sorts
of comment wise and otherwise
upon the Roosevelt eclipse at Chi
cago. The plain truth is that
Roosevelt had passed the Age
Limit.. No longer can he enjoy a
fight for light’s sake. He is no lon
ger in a mood to boss the show. He
admits his being vanquished. Arma
geddon tor him has many terrors.
He is a has-been. And he cannot
come back. rt he poor old hat he
Inrow In the ring is brimless and
perforated. It would not adorn a
scarecrow, and would not mislead
e>. on a for.lish bird much less some
of those wise daws that control the
Old Guard.
WHICH IS THE SAMI'..
An exchange amends Shak?speiri
with “One touch of nature makes
the v hive woi:u sin”, tvhicn is to
bo still further extended by the as
sertion that “one touch of sin
makes the whole world kin”.
AS HIM, XYK SAW IT.
Some of the political fire eaters
who are seeing red war these days
and are mouth-filled for prepared
ness, might with advantage be re
minded of Bill Nye's long ago as
sertion on the subject:
“It is the duty of the Great
Orator to howl for war—and then
hold the other man’s coat while he
tights”.
