What the Labor Leaders Say About the
Case-Another Injunction.
CHICAGO, April 1.-THE lockout has at
last been ordered by the building trades
for Thursday morning and the threatened
industrial hydra, monster labor war,
with its attendant crowds of idle men,
riots, violence, outrage, and b.oodshed,
will be a thing of life in Chicago within
few hours This decision was reached at a
meeting of the Central Building leagues
executive committee. The committees
action is authoritative and final. Thurs
day morning will see $1,000 men thrown
out of employment,' said member of the
leagues committee. as he came out of the
meeting. This lockout promises to he the
most thorough and complete ever at
tempted here or anywhere else. There
will be a complete stoppage of all building
in Chicago for the time being, and it will
not be possible to purchase building mate
rial in large quantities, say the contrac-

months or more, he said, while many con-
tractors could not stand "A cessation of

Gil said he didn't believe the employers
We're sincere in wishing "A lockout. One
paint contracting firm, the Conover Dec

contract for the entire building, that un-
less he had the non-union painters dis

MANY people throughout this
country seem to have little faith
In fruit raising as q profitable
industry. Nevertheless tits susccp-
tible of demonstration that no
class of farming pays so we'll. In
Southern California, q net profit of
800 per acre as an average year
after year is considered low esfi-
mate. This year the prices prom.
ise to bring much higher profits as
the following authenticated lnstan-
ces show: For the crop on a 800
acre orchard three years old, of
peaches. apricots and nectarines,
1925 per acre has been offered; an
offer of $133 an acre has been
made for the crop of a 6-year-ol1
peach orchard; and 5000 per ncre
has been offered for the Drop of
7-year-old apricot orchard. These
are facts and they speak in no un-
certain tones of the immense profits
TO be realized in fruit raising. The
soil and climate of the Mesa are
especially adapted to raising fruit
and that industry will eventually
BE- the leading one of the valley.

WANTS HIS GOVERNMENT TO PRO-
TECT HIM.

A dispatch from East Liverpool, o., says
that Elijah Harrison, a nonunion workman
who took the place of one of the strikers
in the pottery at that town, has appealed
to the British government for protection
against the strikers Harrison has not been
long in this country and is still a British
subject. 1t is said he wrote to the British
ambassador at Washington, demanding pro-
lection as a British subject, and alleging
that the police of the place had refused to
give him the protection guaranteed by law.
1t is further stated that the minister re-
piled promising him protection and advis-
ing him to make a formal demand on the
police. and, If they refused again. to sub
NIT his case in writing. 1t is not likely
that anything serious will come out of the
case. but it raises an interesting and novel
question. At first glance it will strike every
one as an outrage that British workmen
should be permitted to come to this coun-
try, take the places of American workmen
and fill their pockets with American wages
without being American citizens. Yet re-
ally there is r. legal way of preventing
it. The contract labor law would prevent
their coming here uader a contract to
work. but if they choose to come on a
chance Of getting work and do get it, there
is no way to prevent them. Neither is
there any way to compel them to become
Daturalized American citizens, They can
remain here as long as they choose without
becoming naturalized, and as long as they
continue to be British subjects they can
claim the protection of their government
against violence. unless the local authori-
ties protect them. A foreigner temporarily
residing in the country is entitled TO the pro-
lection of it's laws as long as he does rot
violate them, and If he is denied such pro-
lection he may appeal to his own govern
ment for it. If the local authorities at
East Liverpool carry their sympathy with
the strikers 50 far as to refuse protection
to Harrison, and if he should be injured
in his person or estate by reason Of such
refusal he might raise an international
question of no little Importance. The aver
age Briton is a stubborn fellow and apt
to insist on his rights. The way to pre-
vent such claims as that or Harrison is to
give all residents Of the country, whether
citizens or aliens, the equal protection Of
| the law.
