cal, JOHN and bob
Calvin Coolidge is a man of the
people . He was born and biought
up on a farm in sturdy old Vermont.
He has always been a hard worker
and has keen sympathy for other
workers. That is why he has always
been found on the right side in mat
ters of labor legislation, as is shown
by his labor record printed time anil
again in many publications. He is
considerate of the rights of others
and conscientious and courageous in
the discharge of his duties. He never
squandered his own money and he
does not believe in wasting the pub
lic money. His actions are always
, governed by what he considers for
the best interest of the whole peo
ple and that is why he should be re
elected in November. Labor should
vote for him to a man, if they want
to elect the one who has always
been alive to their best Interests.
John W. Davis is a high-class law
yer of great ability who has al
ways worked for the big interests
and probably always will.
Robert M. LaFollette has always
been for labor, when he had labor
audience .
THE THIRD PARTY
/
(From Illinois Labor News)
Every socialist, every communist,
every anarchist, every I.W.W., every
shirker, every clock-watcher and a
few misguided people, who think they
believe in public ownership of the
railroads, will be found in the ranks
of the third party. Some qf the lat
ter may change their minds before
Nov. 4, but it is safe to say that ev
ery one, who thinks that America is
on the way to the dogs, will vote
the third party ticket. ILLINOIS
LABOR NEWS is sure that, if the
third party could win, we would be
like the man in the story “In a hell
of a fix.”
Back about 1890, Fletcher Bros.,
of Minneapolis, large sheep ranch
owners in the Northwest, discovered
that a trusted employe had abscond
ed with a considerable sum of money.
Loren Fletcher, one of the firm, then
congressman from Minneapolis dis
trict, started in pursuit accompanied
by a detective . They trailed the man
to Winnipeg, captured him and start
ed back without waiting for extra
nit ion papers. They were 'Topping ta
the border by the Canadian officers
and taken back to Winnipeg, charg
ed with attempting to kidnap a man
out of Canada. It was then that
Congressman Fletcher -er' his fa
mous telegram to Col. S. King of
Minnea.pohr,, ‘ Bill, come :p. I am in
a hell of a fix.' ’

Ship Makes 50 Round
Trips to Territory
To have made fifty round trips
upon the Pacific ocean in six years
and to have missed her boat only
once in all that time, and then not
purely her own fault, is the record,
Rosie, pet cat of the Catherine D,
boasts.
Rosie found her vav on board the
Catherine D in 1918 when Captain
W. B. Knight, present commander,
first took his place upon the bridge.
She had strayed to the dock with
several other kittens.
Captain Knight and the crew of
the Catherine D, which besides be
ing the pride of the Pacific Ameri
can Fisheries i* the largest wooden
passenger beat afloat on the Pacific
ocean, adopted Rosie immediately jp
on her arrival.
Since timt time .-he has made tif'y
round trips on the ccean inchri'ag
several to California, one to south
America, and a large number j Al

borhotd, Rosi' ha? cify been left be
hind once.
That was when tin* ship had
gine trouble while n the port of bel
li ngham and had to be towed to Se
attle . Rosie apparently knew that
the ship was disabled and so believ
ed (hat she was safe to go ashore for
awhile. When she returned to the
dock she found that the vessel was
out in the bay, being towed south
ward. Three days later the Cather
ine D returned and Rosie happily
joined her friends on board.
But now Rosie is getting old and
it is believed that soon she will be
missing when the vessel sails on her
northern trips . However, her daugh
ter, Snooky, who is constantly with
her ,\vill probably take Rosie’s place
as the queen of the Catherine D, said
Captain Knight.

LONDON, Sept. 17.—According to
statistics, spare time, white paper
and the use of arithmetic have led
a certain German investigator to an- 1
nounce as a fact that the per capita
consumption of matches is 14 a day.
He deals with every man, woman
and child in England, Belgium, Hol
land and Switzerland. Before the war
every German used 12 a day; now
the number has been reduced to
eight.
An Englishman named Congrew
invented the match, but John Wal
ker, an English druggist, made the
first practical friction matches in j
1827. The safety match, usable on
ly on a specially prepared surface j
was invented in 1848 .
