Join in this conspiracy with them.
These publishers have been faithful In their
contracts with Mr. Post. are upright business men
and good citizens. their only crime being that they
decline to turn over the management of their
napers to the leaders of the labor trusts talias
Urions,. who are generally ignorant. willful ana
violent men, incapable of conducting a business.
Mr. Post declines to be party 70 such unlawful
eopspirucy to financially ruin any one. and this
ertugh to publicly expose Of the criminal
acts Of members of labor unions has produced this
boy colt.
labor knows little OF the insufferable arrogance,
impudence and violence Of the ignorant DULLES,
decorated with brief power by the most tyrannous
of all trusts. the Tabor trust or Unions.
Put supreme power in the hands of any ignorant
man. not accustomed to affairs, and he quickly be-

H.. cares nothing for law the rights Of others.
The Unions are made up of two classes. LIST.
The men who have a ready and abusive tongue, and
who can howl down. and by violent and loud talk.
dominate the meetings Of the Unions.
These men are seldom, If ever. good workers,
OF thrifty homecoming and desirable citizens; they
have small chance on their own merits to earn
fIst-class wages. unless they force them
selves on employers by Union card. They bring
on strikes and misery for good workmen, and try
to- and do, blackmail employers into settling same
by paying them graft money. Some Of them have
been Jailed for such ofenses but the great major
ity still hold forth. They have brought untold
disgrace the fair name OF labor and made the
term 1.-THE poo-er werken mon' a by-word, Kissed
and laughed at by the public.
The second other class In the labor unions Is
made up Of good capable, intelligent. peaceab.e,
thrifty citizens who go into unions with the laud-
able purpose Of lettering their conditions and to
support an honest association. which they hope
will be honestly conducted. truly and fairly, in
the interests Of labor. but to their surprise and
disgust they find that whenever they try to speak
iu the meetings for fairness and honorable pro-
cedure, they are hooted and howled down by the
other class
They try to counsel peace, equity and justice
but they might well launch a feather in u
cyclone. Then they sometimes try to keep at work
when they need thu wages. and know they are
fair. but they are abused, and frequently their
families maltreated and themselves beaten back
into submission. % there are literally hundreds Of
Thousands Of decent American workmen, absolutely
forced to bear the disgrace and ignominy Of the
Ceiling yoke Of Unionism. because Of the hated
tyranny Of the others.
