LABOR MEMS OPPORTUNITY,

A column of editorial space In
Thurston's paper is occupied this
morning by an appeal to the leaders
OF the main industry in these islands
to dump Pinkham overheard and take
on Thurston in his place.
The arguments or rather statements
leading up to this craven plea are
ridiculous. The complete photo

text OF the Pinkham Commissions re-
port and gives a concise idea to the
outsider is put down as useless. 1t

MT amount to tinker's whoop.
Wouldn't this make the community
smile? Especially when every effort
since the annexation movement started
has been centered on establishing o
