A BOYCOTT.

ding dislike and antipathy to the AFRO
CANT and violent pretender of the other
class.
The second class named are, for the
time being, forced to stand the denunci-
atoms of the public against labor
unions, for they are in sad company,
which has brought disgrace upon the
name Of Unions, so there seems no way
but for the decent men to stand it UNI
til in some way they can obtain con-
troll, and make the old or new unions,
which they may form, lawful, respect
able and worthy of the esteem of the
public.
We are on record as being friends and
well wishers of the second class named,
and as thoroughly and unalterably OPP
posed to the law breakers, criminals
and DULLES of the other class, so when
union men denounce and revile us it is
easy to determine in which class they
belong.
The union men in the first class are
genuine and undeniable anarchists,
aliens and outlaws
Let us analyze and see.
When strike occurs they picket
plants, threaten people, assault men,
dynamite property. boycott and even
murder-they are criminals and oppos-
ed to all law.
An anarchist Is one opposed to law
When police or the military are called
J in to preserve the peace and protect the
common people, do these men welcome
and uphold them? They do not, but
hasten to protest" and do all In their
power to remove them, so they can car
ry out their acts of violence and law
breaking.
They favor no law but their own, and
that is the true hall mark of an anarch-
list, 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 to know the facts.
1t is this class of union men who have
placed boycott on our products in try
ing to force us to join their lawless
ranks, and ruin some publishers, and
lthey are the ones who propose to punish
Mr.. Post for fearlessly telling the facts
about them ana 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 he not obtained mon

/ God Almighty has irlstilled in the.
mind of every man, worthy the name, a
desire to work and furnish bread and
clothing for his little ones, but in this
case the labor union said he must not.

broke the rules fthe union and went

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
to support his family was met, and the
strikers put their fingers in his eyes,
gouged one Of them out until hshung on
his cheek. Are these the only cases of
outrage?
Hundreds Of acts equally infamous
are repeated from day to day-daring
llstrikes conducted by lawless and crinl-3
inal members Of labor unions.
Decent people read with horror the
tales of distress women attacked and

lives lost, and a. general reign of terror,
disorder and anarchy conducted by the
labor trust in trying to force the ball
ance Of mankind to obey, without ques-
ton, the mandates of the leaders of the
Unions.
Such outrages on the public peace and
such absolute, disregard of the lives,
property and liberty of citizens have
finally aroused the people to a univer-
