Barbell made his second successful
balloon ascension and parachute jump
at Roton yesterday. Outside of this
number the performance was witness

the sour vicinity. The day was a per-
fect one for the ascension and every
thing passed off smbotbly. '
Promptly at three minutes after four
the big silk bag was tugging at the
. ropes and the profesaor shouted "Let
her go." Immediately she started on
V. her upward flight, going slowly and
straight up for the first five hundred
feet, there apparently being no air
currents to move her in either direc’

about 4. 500 feet above ground the pro
fessor let loose and everyone held
their breath fearing lest the parachute
might fall to open. But this was ac-

The situation is as follows: There
are in this country about one million
of people who ovin most of the wealth
including the great corporations. Say.
‘cnty live millions belong to the middle
and laboring classes, and are support
ed by twenty five millions of workers
earning on the average not over four
hundred dollars per onuum.
The workers together earn about
thirty-four millions of dollars per day.
or ten billions per annum modem poi-
ilics consists in devising ways and .
means or getting at that ten billion II
dollars of annual earnings of poor pee;

The workers have got to go into poli-
ties to protect themselves and moist
go in otherwise than as puppets of ma.
chine politicians. The Economic
league offers the worker a medium for
going in. and in the sequel will propose
the ways by which he may throw cor-
porations and politicians off his back
and wealth their hands out of his
pocket.
