He was told that II be did not stop taking
the INTgLLldRScRR his men would be Of
dered 10 stop work-that lie, union work
mon would be compelled to stop taking
union wages because the man paying
them insisted on reading the news in the
journal he preferred.
The boycott committee demanded that
a certain druggist stop taking the morning
papers and selling the Sunday Register; He
refused. "We'll break you up" said the
committee. "You may mako me bank
rupt, but you can't manage my priyste
affairs" DWELL boycott every doctor that
