THE RUSSIAN PRESS CRIES
 FOR NATIONAL ASSEMBLY
Government Papers Says People Should Decide the Question of Peace or Var Censorship on Foreign Dispatches s-Peeple Are Mortified at Accounts of Deaths on the Russian Battleships.

0t Petersburg, June 1.-The Russian press this morning is still advocating more vigorously than ever the sum- moning of a national assembly, even X the reactionary Sviet joining in the ksperal chorus. In view of the cur rent rumors 1t is most significant that the papers which are more or less in the confidence of the government unan- imously take the position that repre- sentatives of the people should decide the question of peace or war.
 All censorship is now removed from foreign dispatches and the people are appalled, at the horrible stories of slaughter on board the Russian ships. The admiralty has not yet been able to estimate even approximately from the foreign advices the loss of men, but as the ships were over rather than undermanned the total will be greater than the ordinary complement of the vessels would indicate and probably would exceed 10000 if only about 4.OOO were saved.
 Requiem masses are being celebrated constantly in all the churches and chapels for the repose of the souls of the slain, although the distracted rela- tives are unable to learn definitely the fate of those dear to them. The ad. miralty up to the present has been un- able to throw any light on the situation except to announce the safety of those who have reached Vladivostok. Ugly stories are circulated in this city .of the demOralizatiOn and even treachery of the crews of several of the Russian ships during the battle and it is even said that the crew of the battleship Orel bound their officers and hoistcd the white flag. The origin of these stories, which are discredited by all naval men here, cannot be traced, as the only direct information comes from Japan, but they are doubtless based on the trouble among the crew of the Orel before her departure for the far east. She was sunk at her dock be- Llbau the crew were mutinous. h. dignation against Rear Admiral Ne bogatoff is growing. The epithets of coward" and traitor are coupled with bis name. especially since the re- ceipt of the Tokio dispatches showing that his surrender was not in the heat of battle but with the land close under his lee, to which his crews could have escaped after the destruction of the ships.
 Conservative Russians are alarmed at the possibility of disorders in various parts of Russia as result of the dis aster. and feeling of disquietude for {he future is manifested everywhere.

people to strike, picket, boycott, as
sault, blow up property or commit
murder
We do not pay thugs $50 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 nave steady, unvarying respect
for the law abiding peaceable union
man and most earnest desire to see
MN gain power enough to purge the
unions of their criminal practices that
nave brought down upon them the

of any labor trust
You offer to remove the restriction

choke the throat and still the voice

potism which tramples beneath an

brothers

people to harken to the cries for bread
OF the little children whose faithful
fathers were beaten to death while

Identification.

Identification.
The public should remember that
there are a few Labor Unions conduct
ed on peaceful lines and in proportion
as they are worthy they have won
esteem. for We as a people, are strong.
ly in sympathy with any right act that
has for its 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
yoke of slavery upon the American
people AS public speaker lately
said: THE arrogance of the English
King that reused the fiery eloquencs
Of Otis, that inspired the immortal
declaration of Jefferson, that left War
rem dying on the slopes of Bunker Hill
was not more outrageous than the con-
ditiOnS 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 thstr
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 a union
man "hOller" because the facts are
made public, he has branded himself
as either one of the law breakers or q
sympathizer, and therefore with the
mind of the law breaker and likely to
become one when opportunity offers.
That is one reason employers decline
to hire such men.
