bought a new whisk broom tho

It was worn down until tho

too short for clothes brushing

asked him what he'd have, and
then one of them queried:
"Say, Bob, what do you think
of tho white hopes?"
Mr. I'lUwImnions finished his

MARTY O'TOOLE, PnTSDUIiau'B ? 22, 500
ITTCUllH.
nttaclc Most of hla defeats have been
his best pltchod games, nn lnstnnco be
ing recently when n homo run off him
by Schulte wns tho only run scored In
a twelve inning game with tho Cubs,
probably tho greatest game ever staged
in Pittsburgh.
O'Toole bus boon a very erratic pitch
er this season. Ono cannot go behind
Uio facts. But ho haa weathered his
trials bravely and is still plugging
along, confident and enger to hit his
winning Btrido. Skeptics who ridiculed
tho outlay of the big sum to St. Paul
for his services havo tried to raise tho
"I told you bo," but OToolo has shown
enough to furubih n hundred argu
ments to tho contrary.
After tho fans haw had their nay
about O'Toolo ono way nnd Uio other
and after critics everywhere havo pock
ed nt him and harped on his hard luck
and failing offorts to win a lot of
games it la a good idea to hearken to
tho opinions expressed of OToolo by
National lenguo batsmen. Uubo Mar
quard, Frank Schulte, Dick Hoblltzel
and any number of lending lights havo
extolled tho merits of O'Toolo and have
declared him to bo a wonderful pitcher.

AWFUL FACTORY CONDITIONS
New York Stato Investigating Commit
tee Found Pale, Worn Women Work

ocrn Owned by the International

Awful conditions have been found
by Uio Btato factory Investigating com

Georgo W. Perkins, chlof financial
backer of Theodore Boosovolt In his
schemo to ruin Uio Republican party,
1b a dlroctor.
The nppearanco of tho womon
workers In this plant," Bald a member
of Uio commlttoo, "was very dls-
hoartenlng. Thoy wero worn and
palo nnd their oloUics, faces and
hands wero covered with oil and homp
cloth. Many of theso womon, bo called,
aro only children In ago and thoy havo
to lug huge piles of hemp, weighing
1C0 pounds each, across tho floor, the
load In some cases being bigger than
Uio womon themsolves. In tho spin
ning room, whoro women aro employ
ed alone, to tho .exclusion of men, who
would havo to recoivo higher wages,
Uio clatter of machinory is bo fright
ful that a volco below a shriek cannot
bo heard. Tho rooms aro dark, though
for no necessary cause, and no at
tempt is mado to remove tho dust,
which is kept In constant motion by
tho line shaftings despite tho require
ments of tho law. This dust is
breathed continuously by tho womon,
many of whom complain of chronic
coughs and colds. Tho dust and dirt
are bo Uilck upon tho clothos of tho
girls that at tho noon hour which In
many cases consists of but a few
minutes and at tho closo of tho day's
or night's labor, tho girls havo to
sweep each other clean with brooms."
It is further Btatod that Uio custom
of working tho women all night Is
permanent, married womon being se
lected for night work, their hours be
ing from sundown until 6:30 o'clock
In tho morning. Of 400 womon em
ployed In tho mills, 200 work all night.
When Goorge W. Perkins was asked
by a Now York Times reporter for an
explanation of tho conditions In an
establishment of which ho Is ono of
Uio directors, ho mado, In part, tho
following remarkable reply: "This
night work has beon rendored neces
sary largely because of tho govern
ment's perfectly unreasonable attitudo
toward largo corporations, which has
mado it Impossible for managers of
large concerns to know whether they
woro on foot or horseback, whether
thoy oould expand their plans to keep
up with Increasing domands or not."
Tho lato Mark Twain In his bright
est moments nover uttorod anything
more grimly humorous than tho fore
going oxplannUon by Georgo W. Per
kins of why Uio company of which ho
Is a dlroctor is working women all
night under tho frightful conditions
disclosed by tho New York stato fao-
tory Investigating committee.
Meantlmo It ought to bo of lntorest
to millions of Republicans throughout
Uio United Statos to know whero tho
monoy comos from to finance Thoo
doro Boosovolt In his campaign of
"rulo or ruin."

SCOTLAND.
Governor Wilson is n freo
trader and la so recognized by
Uio rank and fllo of his party.
Tho truth Is emphasized tt llttlo
by Uio fact that ho buys his
socks In Scotland.
His npparont indlfferonco to
tho condlUon of American
laborers may bo duo to his abil
ity to get along without being
obliged to cat bread in Uio sweat
of his brow.
Ho haa boen extremely fortu

Ho has nelthor by personal ox
patfenco or observation ac

During Uio trying times that

On tho contrary, wo should bo
