THE DALTON CITIZEN, THUESDAY, OCTOBER 15, 1914.
From Out the
BY C. R. VANCE
Alley
It is a very beautiful, mid-week
morning and I havfi just handed in the
little mining town of Bonanza, Arkan
sas. (Always pronounced Arkan^hw)
I arose, as usual, at 5:30 this morning,
and my train was due to leave Port
Smith at 7 o’clock. Plenty of time
for cakes and coffee, and then to catch
the 6:47 car and arrive at the depot in
plenty of time.
The coffee pot was blubbering away,
the cakes were taking on their brown,
and everything looked pretty. Of course
I must have a squint at- the morning
paper, so out on the dew-covered lawn
I found the curled “Southwest Ameri
can,” just as the newsie had tossed it
from his pony. The first thing that
caught my eye .was the “Bombardment
of Antwerp;’,’ then in equally bold
headlines I read * ‘.Street Car Men Go
On Strike All Cars Of The Port
Smith Light And Traction Company
Stopped At Eight O’clock Last Night. .
More news for Willie! I hurriedly read
the headlines to “Mademoiselle Peru-
nie” and almost instantly there were
two cups of “Brazilian Liquid Joy”
steaming on the table, also a stack of
brown ones with a little lump of ‘ ‘ Fern-
dell Salve” in the center. A pair each
of knives, forks and spoons shone on
the spotless napkins.
Madame and I chatted about the
strike as the cakes and coffee disap
peared.
My grip is always packed the night
before for emergency cases, so with a
smack and a good-bye I was off to
walk at least one good mile to the
train. Down H street into Lexington
avenue and on to Garrison avenue I
walked, changing the grip from first
one hand to the other. I saw business
men, laborers, clerks and shop girls in
every street, and there was a strange
expression on every face, and all one
could hear was, “Everybody Walks.”
Here now was room for a little think
ing—how were the laboring men and
women going to get to their work who
lived in Van Buren, five miles away,
and the poor devils from South Ft.
Smith, and all the suburbs? Some
question, I tell you. Then who was -to
blame, the traction company or the em
ployes? Well, a few days ago the very
unpopular' superintendent laid :pff six
teen men because they were in favor, of
organizing a union. O, ho, little wild
flower, so this was the spirit of the
head of the Chicago monopoly. Then
straight way I decided I was for the
union spirit in this instance.
I am no anarchist, nor socialist, but,
by heck, I am for the laboring class
good and strong, and without organiza
tion, they would soon be trampled un
der the iron heel of greedy, grafting
capital. I fear we do not often enough
stop to consider the men who slave and
labor and keep humming the mighty
mill of commerce. We feel that we are
a prosperous people and-- congratulate
ourselves; but, as President Wilson said
in his inaugural address, “We do not
stop to count the cost of our prosperity;
we do not stop to consider the tears
that are sewn into our garments by the
poor women in the -sweat shops. ’ ’ To
my way of thinking, the hero in' this
great age of civilization is the laboring
man that toils .from early' morn' till
the shadowy curtain of night is drawn
down—the men and. women that-' eat
from a five-pound laTd bucket', and at
night are too tired to tango or attend
the movies, or to attend Mrs. Shallow-
head’s whist party. These sunburned
and freckled sons and daughters of
Adam who afe too sensible to : fie up in
a silly social set, too sensible to argue
religion—they are the ones' that really
go into the actual building of a great
and good world. They are making an
honest living and trying to educate
their children. - These good, hard work
ing, poor folk are the best people in
the world, and, as a rule, are the smart
est people. They live plain, eat plain,
deal with nature, get up early and
catch the first glimpse of the'sun as it
lights up the hills and smiles a good
morning- to the world. The healthy-
hearty, happy, home-loving people are
close to God, my friend.
As I pencil these lines I am sitting
on a little porch or platform, at the
rear of a store in the little mining
town of Bonanza. As I only call on
one man in a town, I have quite often
some surplus time on my hands, and in
a town as small as Bonanza it is. hard
to kill three or four hours. •’-Tis 8
o ’clock and, five minutes, and my train
comes at 11:10. • I just bought two-Jon-
athan apples and a five-cent pencil
tablet and asked permission to sit back'
here where it is quiet and cool in the
shadow of the building. I must admit
that my surroundings are not at 'all
inspiring, yet the very quietness of the
place is calculated to put one in the at
mosphere of deliberate thought.
On this little, old, oily, greasy porch
there is an oil barrel, a broken orange
box and two rolls of barbed wire. In
the door sits a pioor, sickly-looking cat
that looks as if the whole world had
gone against her and life was a farce
The flies out here on the edge of my
alley are not the least bit timid, and
they keep messing with my face and
ankles'? Away to 'my left, about a hun
dred yards, there is a cotton gin chug
ging away, separating the seed from
the lint of some poor, old, sore farmers.
Several wagons are standing around this
gin house, and a few lazy, sleepy-look
ing mules are wagging their hard tails
in a vain effort to keep the pesky flies
away. These old, knotty, sore-shoul
dered mules seem to be wondering why
in ’ell they are mules anyway.
Across the alley, there is a wire
clothesline, with an assortment of gar
ments thereon—there are some union
suits (the miners are strong for the
union), and then there are some made
separate. Don’t smoke "around that
cotton, son!
To my left, I see a row of small,
wooden houses with little diamond-
shaped air holes cut in the side up near
the roof. Be back in a jiffy. There is
also a chicken coop in this alley, and a
few sparrows are visiting with the three
or four scrub pullets that are enclosed
in this wood and wire prison. Just
now a good-sized rat poked his nose and
moustache up through a hole in the
edge of the warehouse. He stayed only
a moment, though, and darted back. I
see a drove of yellow butterflies around
a little mud puddle in the alley, and
that reminds me, they are the first ones
I’ve seen in nearly twenty-six years.
Welcome to our alley, little yellow kid-
does.
A young counter jumper (clerk in
disguise), just broke into my little
quietude and brings out some stocking
and underwear boxes, ribbon paper,
strings, a copy of the Menace and some
other trash and starts a bonfire. He
asks me what I sell, where I’m from,
when I am going to leave, and several
other questions. Then- tells me he used
to be a .motorman in-Little Rock, etc.,
and here is where the reverie of the
alley is liable to be broken up. He in
quires if I think the Germans will take
Turkey before Thanksgiving, and of
course I replied that they would if they
could get Greece. Don’t hit him, I
know him.
I have certainly had a big time this
morning all by myself (’cept the pul
lets, the rat, the sparrows, the cat and
the store clerk). Great old world. Exit
alley.
he would put up some swell stuff, shore
nuff, boys.
I see Robbie Loveman, that sweet
singing Hebrew, is writing some stuff
now for The Citizen; and do you know,
fellers, thqt I can read his truck over
the second time? And I ain’t given
to reading poultry very strong, either.
But this fellow Loveman seems to go
way down and dig up the fine thoughts
from the depths of a fine mind. Yes,
Bob is in the deluxe class all right,
and his goods are worth the price, Now
the “Sage of Cohutta,” Philom, is a
well-balanced, well-educated, weil-expe-
rienced gentleman of culture, poise and
purpose. Some day I am sure that this
Parrott will be a bird of paradise.
(Thank me.)
“Junius”—Junius Brutus Palmer, I
salute thee as a writer of great promise.

article do I skip. This long, lean, lank,

wish to Say, is pure gold. O, h6! James
Wells, Iseh Ga Bibble. — This "Wells guy

few months ago, picked up the pencil
and darn nigh pushed Stanton off the

the good, and I am with you right or
wrong. Go, to it, kid, and see where
you wind up.
