The feeling seems universal and is held by the great general public and by probably more than Ghalf of the
 unwilling members of the unions.
 Statistics show about ten union members to every eight hundred citi- Zens, and this small minority under takes to rule the rest of us and if we don't obey exactly and quickly they slug, throw bricks, shoot, cut, dyna- mite. boycott and murder.
 BORN WORKERS
 Most all Americans were born of work people. We know what it is to work and work hard. We are not chil- dren of Dukes, EarIs or the idle rich and we have an inborn sympathy for and a desire to help along every hon. est, peaceable workman. So mer- chants. manufacturers and all sorts of employers who used to work with their hands and now work harder with their brains to get together money to pay to those who work with their hands, have, with the general public, borne patiently many acts of tyranny and abuse until the union leaders have become more emboIdened and in- toXicated with power.
 WANT TROUBLE
 They must make trouble in order to feed their vanity by seeing themselves discussed in the papers, and also to show the Union" that hires them that there's something doing' So they order people about, interfere with business, stop street and R. R. cars, building operations, delivery of goods, serving of meals. delivery of bread. meat or even milk necessary to keep babies alive, and we have been ad ff,T ne interfering with the sacred rite of burial of the dead. They have the i'm pudence to interfere in any and every act of life, demanding that all move ments be made only according to "the union rule" Their continued abuses and interference with the rights of citizens has so outraged the people, that they not only detest the name labor union" but are forced to take up the most rigorous and emphatic measures to stop these outrages, and stop this interference with the move ments of the common people.
 PEOPLE ANNOYED
 When a man wants to go to business on a car he doesn't want to be told the unions have "tied up the line. " When he relies for his dinner on hay ing the meat, bread and vegetables de- Hvered, it doesn't set at all we'll to lose his dinner because the unions had tied up the meat or bread supply, or the teamsters' union slugged and driven off the new teamsters that tried to deliver the goods. His baby needs milk but the milk drivers union" has stopped the supply. Let a few of the d-babdes die. some sacrifices must be made for the supremacy of labor. "
 He tries to paint his own house at spare times. but the painters union hoot him, and boycott the paint deal CT and grocer that sells him goods.
 A sudden leak of a water pipe is flooding his house and destroying his property, but the rules of the plum bers union impose all sorts of penalties if he tries to help the trouble. So they interfere in all sorts of ways with the liberty and freedom of the common people. making life a burden and man an abject slave to the impudent "or- ders' of the labor boss, and these labor unions know no limit to their exac- tions and abuses so lcng as they have power to ride down the people. They go the full limit even to demanding that the laws of the U. s. Govt give way to their rules.
 A COSTLY BLUNDER
 When Pres. Mckinley came to lay the corner stone of the federal build ing in Chicago (that the unions had delayed for years and forced thereon an unnecessary cost of some millions of dollars which had to be paid out of the pockets of the common people, he made the fearful mistake of lowing his head to the "orders" of the labor bosses and allowed them to put on his neck the yoke of a Union Card" be- fore he was allowed to lift a trowel and lay that corner stone. Think of it. The chief Executive of this govt made to step down from his eminent position and allow a union boss to sit there and issue "orders." That one act made the labor unions so drunk with power and impudent that it has cost Chicago in losses to business, wages, buildings, depreciation of real estate and destruction of property by fires set by unions, literally hundreds of millions of dollars and many lives.
 Is it any wonder the common people are sick and tired of unions" They ordered the little Colonel now in the White House to discharge a printer because ahe wouldn't join a union and they also ordered him not to ride on a certain R. R. that refused to obey 
 brave man. the real Executive of all the people and not alone of the ten in eight hundred or the one thousand who seek to corner the labor market and shut out the eighty thousand who do not.
 He says: "When any labor union seeks improper ends or seeks to ach- ieve proper ends by improper means all good citizens and more especially all honorable public servants must op- pose the wrong doing as resolutely as they would oppose the wrong doing of any great corporation Of course, any violence, brutality or corruption should not for one moment be Joler- ated."
 GENUINE TRUST
 But here we see a genuine trust, a labor trust. a combination to sell labor. and this arrogant trust proposes by threats of violence to force people to buy it's commodity.
