/ The second claGs NAMED, are for the
time being foFced to BCaBd the denGncia-

Unions, SO there seems no way but fer
the decent men to stand it until IL some
way they can obtain control, and make
the old or new unions, which they may
form. lawful, respectable, and worthy OF
I the esteem Of the public.
We are on record as being friends and
veil wishers of the second class named,
and as thoroughly and uDalteFa6ly op-
! posed to tie ia8 breakers, criminals, and
bullies of the other GLASS, so when union
men denounce and revile us, it is easy
70 determine in which class they belong.
The union men in the frst class are
genuine and undeniGble anarchists, aliens
and outlaws.
Let Us analyze and see.
When a strike occurs, they picket
plants, threaten people, assault men,
dynamite property, boycott and even
murder, they are criminals and opposed
TO al law.
An anarchist is one opposed TO law.
When police or the military are called
In to preserve the peace. and protect the
common people, do these men welcome
aud uphold them? They do not, but
hasten TO "pTotest" and do all In their
/ power 20 remove them, 80 they can carry
out their acts of violence and law break
ing.
They favor no law but their own, and
that is the true hall mark of an Anarchist
pure and simple.
Someone says we are harsh in our de-
scription of these men. We are not re-
spOnsible for their character and acts.
They do these things regardless of any
one, and the only way the public can
fairly Judge them is 70 know the facts.
Il is this class of union men who have
placed boycott on our products, in Try
ing to force US 70 join their laWless-ranks,

the ones who propose to punish Mr..
Post for fearlessly telling the facts about
them and their methods.
A man With a family of children to
support was kept out of work by a strike
IN Chicago. The family would have
starved, had hes not obtained money to
buy them bread:
God Almighty has instllled in the mind
of every man, verify the name, desire 70
work and furnish bread and clothing for
his little ones, but ia this case the labor
union said he must not.
Gods motive was the strongest, he
broke the rules of the union and went to
work.
They caught him one evening on the
street, knocked him down with brass
knuckles, kicked him UNCONSCIOUS, then
pried his mouth open, and poured car
bolic acid down his throat.
Another man who was forced to
work 70 support his family was. met,
and the strikers put their fingers IN his
eyes, gouged one OF them out until it hung
on his cheek. Are these the only cases
of outraged
Hundreds Of acts equally Infamous are
repeated from day TO day, daring strikes
conducted by lawless and criminal mem
bers of labor unions.
Decent people read with horror the
tales of distress, women attacked and
sometimes stripped on the street, tSt.
Louis St: car strike), yorkmen blown to
pieces with dynamite, men assaulted,
mobs formed, millions Of dollars worth of
property destroyed, many lives lost, and
a general reign of terror, disorder, and
anarchy conducted by the labor trust, in
trying 10 force the balance of mankind to
obey, without question the mandates Of
the leaders of the Unions.
Such ousrages on the public peace, and
such absolute disregard of the lives,
property, and liberty Of citizens, has fin
