short time ago inquiry came from
the union forces to know if Mr.. Post
would keep still' if they could call
off the boycott on Postum and Grape
Nuts.
This is the reply: 'SThe labor trust
has seen fit to try to ruin our business
because we would not join it's Grim
inal conspiracy. We are plain Ameri-
can citizens and differ from the labor
union plan in that we do not force
people to strike, picket, boycott, as
sault, blow up property or commit
murder
We do not pay thugs $40 to break
in the ribs Of any man who tries to
support his family nor $50 for an eye
knocked out
We try to show our plain, honest
regard for sturdy and independent
wOrkmen by paying the highest wages
in the State.
We have a steady, unvarying respect
for the law abiding peaceable union
man and a most earnest desire to see
him gain power enough to purge the
unions Of their criminal practices that
have brought down upon them the
righteous denunciation of long-suf-
Ming anu OulIdSoCd puDl1C, Oul we

the union label, nor prostitute our
American citizenship under orders
Of any labor trust
You offer to remove the restriction
on our business and with union gold
choke the throat and still the voice
raised in stern denunciati ton of the des-
potism which tramples beneath an
iron shod heel, the freedom of our
brothers.
You would gag us with silver bar
and muftle the appeal to the American
people to harken to the cries for bread
of the little children whose faithful
fathers were beaten to death while
striving to earn food for them.
Your boycott may perhaps succeed
in throwing our people out Of work
and driving us from business, but YOU
cannot wrench from us that priceless
jewel our fathers fought For and which
every true son guards with his life
Therefore, speaking for out work peo-
pie and ourselves the Infamous offer
is declined.'

The public should remember that
there are few Labor UniOnszcOnduct-
ed on peaceful lines and in proportion
as they are worthy, they have won
esteem, for we, as people, are strong
~ in sympathy with any right act that
has for it's purpose better conditions
for wage workers. But we do not for
get that we seek the good of all and
not those alone who belong to some
organization, whereas even the law
abiding unions show undeniable evil
denceS OF tyranny and oppression
when they are strong enough, while
many Of the unions harbor and encour-
age criminals in their efforts to force
a yoke Of slavery upon the American
people. AS a public speaker lately
said: -The arrogance of the English
King that reused the fiery eloguence
OF Otis, that inspired the immortal
declara ton Of Jefferson, that left War
rem dying on the slopes of Bunker Hill
was not more outra geous than the con-
dltlOns that closed shop would force
upon the community. These men burst
into rebellion when the king did but
touch their pockets Imagine if you
can their indignant protest had he
sought to prohibit or restrict their oc-
cupation or determine the conditions
under which they should earn their
livelihood and to assault, beat and
murder them, blow up their houses
and poison their food if they did not
submit
The public should also remember
that good true American citizens can
be found in the unions and that they
deprecate the criminal acts of their
fellow members, but they are often in
bad company.
Salt only hurts sore spots SO, the
honest, law abiding union man is not
hurt when the criminals are de-
nounced, but when you hear union
man "hOller' because the facts are
made public. he has branded himself
as either one of the law breakers or a
sympathizer, and therefore with the
mind Of the law breaker, and likely to
become one when opportunity offers.
Ihat is one reason employers decline
to hire such men.

SEGREGATION BILLS
IN THE LEGISLATURE
Three Different Segregation Bills
Have Been Introduced in
House and Senate.

While this Is but the second
week of the legislature, so prompt
ly have the wishes of the governor
or rather the demands, been res
pended to, that there is hardly
measure he called for in his inau-
gural address that has not been
forthcoming from some source.
One of the things he most ur-
gently recommended was segrega-
ton of the school taxes, SO that the
taxes paid in by the whites should
be separated from the taxes paid
by negroes, and already as many
as three different segregation
measures have been introduced. 1t
is an interesting feature, also, that
each one of these measures treats
the subject in different way.
They all, however, provide that
the assessor in making his returns
must designate the amount against
each race and that the county clerk
in making his abstract of the taxes
shall keep the assessments against
each race separate and distinct.
The collector of taxes is requested
to keep separate accounts, as Is
the state auditor in making all dis
bursements, and the state treasur-
er also.

NO MORE TRUSTS FOR
ARKANSAS.

The Arkansas Democrat seems
to be afraid some one Is going to
try To rob Governor Davis of the
glory that will naturally fall to
him over the enactment of the pro-
posed antitrust law. Everybody
knows that Governor Davis insti-
tuted the antitrust movement IN
Arkansas, and while the proposed
anti trust law now before the leg
islature bears the name Of the
King bill, it is an open secret that
Governor Davis himself wrote the
bill. The bill introduced in this
session by Senator Logan was
thought to have been a verbatim
copy Of the governors original
bill, but unfortunately it was dis
covered that word or two had
been left out by Senator Logan in
preparing the bill But a genuine
copy OF the real thing has now
been passed by the senate and will

QUEER WESTERN BUILDING.
House in Montana Town That Was
Constructed of Parts of
Stranded Boat.

Recent Improvements in Miles City
have brought to public notice the his
tory Of one OF the most remarkable
buildings in Montana. reports the Ana
conda Standard II is on one of the
principal business streets of the place,
and is known as the Steamboat block.
1t Is well named, as 1t is constructed
Of wood from one Of the steamers that
used to ply the Yellowstone river. The
steamer was called the Yellowstone,
also, after the river It was navigating.
II was something like 80 years ago
when the steamer Yellowstone made It's
last trip up as far as Miles City. Ii
struck on the rocks at the rapids just
below the town. Nothing could be
done TO get her OF, and she was aban-
doned. George Miles. a son of Gen.
Miles, bought the vessel as she lay
wreck.
From large sections of the hull was
built the house which has just been
exposed by the march Of improvement.
1t is two stories in height, the upper
floor being just as the cabin of the
steamer had been. Miles utilized the
staterooms where the passengers were
wont to sleep 70 make hunks for trav-
elers or steady roomers in the upper
part Of his remarkable building. The
lower floor has been used for store pur-
poses.
Miles still Owls the building, and it
is a source Of revenue. 1t promises TO
outlast some Of the more modern struc-
lures in Mics City, such is the endur-
ing quality Of the stuff of which it is
