I HILLY C ONTROVERSY.
Mv Idea of a reckless waste of good
white paper In these days of scarcity
and when the government is urging
newspapers to Conserve paper, is the
controversy of the two daily papers
of Bart'esville over their respective
circulations Sp-aking. not as one of
the Scribes and Pharisees, blit as one
having authority, having in the past
had access to the "records." neither
paper "covers the earth.” neither one
has near the circulation each tries to
fool the advertisers into heUeving.
neither has the circulation it deserves
for both are far ahead of the city, both
ar- txcellent newspapers and should
have twice the circulation they have

WORK MEN.”
Listen my non-union brother.
To your reason I appeal
Reasoning one with the other.
Cannot but enhance our weal.
Hitterne s. misunder.-tanding.
Flourish, ‘twixt you and me.
And the fissure se-ms expanding—
Really, this should not be.
Business Rig observes the battle
With a sort of sneering smile;
And. considering ns as cattle.
Treat us as not worth his while
•
Brothers, we have schemed and
striven.
^ 'Giant this morster and his might;
Suffered, sacrificed and given.
That conditions may be right.
"Collective actions" was our lever
Thus, alone, did we succeed;
And the fruits of our endeavor
Ye have shared, as was your need
Ye have robbed u» of the fullness
Of conditions, dearly vron;
And with simply galling coolness
Did all obligations shun.
Bqt. despite your oon-uaistance.
And the help you gave the foe.
