H.w a Young Lawyer Defended an In
jured Woman and Made
Renrtafinn

Jonathan II. Pugh was a pale faced
young lawyer. Day after day he sat
wait ng for clients, but Que came. The
first term of court appeared and his name
had not appeared on the docket. At that
time my father was clerk Of the circuit
court. One day there came to him apoor,
sad woman, who poured into his ear a
pitiful tale of woe A brother in-law had
robbed her of all the property left her by
her dead husband, had oppressed and
abused her, and was now seeking to take
from her care her only child, a little girl
3 years old. Ny father became deeply
interested in the woman and promised to
help her. He at once sent for Pugh. The
young lawyer came and took charge Of
her case.
The poor woman's brother-in-law was
rich, and he employed the best Of counsel,
and made every preparation in his power
to defeat her il court and subject her to
still greater oppression, He eve circu-
lated the slanderous stories against her,
and succeeded in totally destroying her
good equation
This story kindled the 2ul Of Pugh, and
he went to wo K with a fierce determine
ton to unmask the villain. The day for
the trial arrived. The neighborhood was
thoroughly aroused, and the old court
room was Gro Eded with spectators. The
sad and dreamy young lawyer became
another mana bold and dauntless knight
fighting for outraged womanhool. He
arose to speak. The silence was painful.
With a master hand he laid before the
court and Jury the work of the poor W.
$3.50 o-.,ozoo, Ill., oO,i,roI y-itnoC.oc
withe1ed beneath his fiery denunciation.
Judge, jurors and spectators bent forward
to lis en-
AS he told Of the woman's wrongs tears
filed the eyes Of all. Then he turned
from the weeping woman to the anthor
of her s)rrows. In terrible language he
expressed the villainy Of the man. Sud
denly he faced the victim of his scorn,
and pointing his quivering finger at him
exclaimed: "You have stolen from this
poor woman all her property. Not only
this; you have ROBBED her not only Of her
last dollar, but of what is more precious
than gold-her good name. And now,
with savage hands, you try to tear from
her arms her darling child. 10 the awful
hereafter you should not even be allowed
| the miserable comfort of herding with
the common damned, but in some lower,
deeper hell be compelled, singly and
alone, to howl out IN eternity Of woe"
AS Pugh reached this climax it fell like
a bolt of thunder on the ears of the guilty
man, and he rushed headlong from the
court room. Pugh's reputation was made.
| He was flooded with clients and was at
once one of the busiest lawyers in town.

To the Voters of the 23d Assembly
District.

Workingmen, Socialists and National
lists Of the 23rd Assembly District!
The Socialist Labor party calls upon
you one and all to help forming a pow
erful campaign club in this district.
Never more than at the present time
has it been necessary to rally the hosts
of Organized Labor against the political
hirelings of Organized Capital. Many
bogus political labor organizations are
forming this Fall to extract what can
be made out of practical politics."
Therefore, it is our plain duty to do all
in our power to frustrate all efforts of
INSCRIPTIONS or well-meaning but ILL
advised labor leaders to side track the
political labor movement.
The monster mass meeting of the
Socialist Labor party and of the Central
Labor Federation at Cooper Institute
last Saturday has proved conclusively
that the thinking portion of the wage
earners of this city are with us heart and
soul. The corruption in public offices,
the persecution of workingmen by en-
ployers, the police, Pinkerton thugs,
the courts and men like Spider Webb,
and the economic struggles of the work
ing classes growing more intensive day
by day, force us to take immediate ac.
ton.
Add to these facts that new election
law will make our initial political steps
much easier than has been the case on
former occasions and we have before us
so favorable cOnglnmeraton of circum-
stances that it would be criminal neglect
to forego this opportunity to assert
principle which is being pushed with
irresistible vigor to the front in all
civilized countries.
On Saturday, September 10, at p. m.,
a meeting will be held at Eberhards

1t is also desirable that all who wish to

their names and addresses to the organ

week later to a special meeting of the
Committee. To judge from the unan.
unity of the delegates 20 the Commit
tee, the Clubs will act in the same sense.
The question of political action was
also broached and the opinion was ex-
pressed by several that the Nationalsts
should not allow the campaign to go by
without taking hand. 1t looks as if
they will fly their own colors and go into
politics.
AT IA subsequent meeting of Club No. 3,
the action of the Central Committee
was emphatically endorsed. Club No. 2
Is already on record as holding the same
views. Club No. is composed of highly
Intelligent, honest and earnest members,
mostly professional men, who are known
to entertain similar opinions, and there
seems to be no question of the other
clubs acting likewise.
