4he NniCdSO IeaLnslSES hSLuSSu lo ue- liver goods where directed and com mitted all sorts of outlawry, because the employers hired men who would properly help them do business. A mechanic pays for ton of coal, and before it is delivered the labor trust issues orders that the coal shall not be touched. The mechanics family is cold and suffering, so he tries to de- liver his own coal and is slugged un- conscious by the union labor trust committee
 WHAT FORT
 All this interference with the affairs of the people, the violence and crimi- nal ugliness is first to sell labor at higher prices than the market rate and next to show the men who buy labor that they have no right to say how that labor shall be used, but that the workman shall say what he shall do. how he shall do it and when. These are the reasons pure and simple, and the public-you and I-must suffer in-. convenience and loss, and ultimately pay all the bills, for maintaining order by our city, county or state ll6 lOldl SVCI oI pIQScCuL- ing the criminals, and on top of all that, we, the public, must pay what ever raise in wages is made to buy off the trouble-makers. It is the people who suffer and pay. Suppose the Union flour millers go on strike for raise from s to S5 "a day and tie up or blow up the mills and finally secure the advance in Wag- es. That advance must be put on the price of flour and the people pay it, and also pay all costs for suppress ing the rioters.
 So we see a few men become svari- cious for money, form labor trust and by coercion force the rest of the people in the United States to submit to the impudence and arrogance and also pay all the bills. There would be no limit to the abuse if the Unions had their own way unchecked. Is it not time the people took steps to protect themselves from this violent and grasping trust?
 ALL JOIN
 Suppose every one of us adopts the Labor Union idea Qabor trust) and by combination force everyone else that doesn't belong to our Union to buy what we have to sell at our price, or slug the life out of them.
 Let the farmers union set the price of wheat at $20 a bushel, and picket, assault or kill the miller and blow up his mill if he tries to buy wheat at less price of anyone but Union" farmer. Then the millers' union sets the price of flour at SS5 a barrel, and calls everyone ,'scab" that refuses to buy flour with the Union Laber' on, and turns over the wagons, kills the horses and beats the drivers of any .'scab'' miller. Then everybody, workmen as well as employers, would have to pay about SIS a barrel extra on every bar rel of flour to the little labor trust of millers. Someone says, that's ex-; treme.' It is not, but is exactly what would happen if that particular union got power enough. You see the only limit to the avariciousness of a labor trust is set by the people at large, when they are abused long and hard enough to rise and quash it.
 Then let the water works Union set the price of $1 pail for drinking water and boycott and assault the family that uses it's own well water. You are no friend of the Union man 1 if you don't drink union water Finally the undertakers Union" i fixes the price of a burial at $500 (any price the yset ''Goes" for that's the union rule) and the poor corpse whose relatives can't borrow or beg the price Ito pay the 'Union" must go without I the privilege or be dumped into the street and the hearse overturned if an independent funeral be attempted.
 OIL TRUST .45 Ss l The Oil Trust is a peacable organiza- tion compared with the riotous, ar- rogant and lawbreaking labor trust, a menace to every citizen including the 1 upright members of the Union them- selves. %.' Is public contract to be let, i'm mediately a demand is made that only l Our Union" be employed and receive 1 the peoples money, and threats of al
 sorts of political defeat and dire disas. ter are made. Suppose quarry trust
 should demand that no other stone be
 used or the Steel Trust make similar dc.
 mand and actually tie up the work to enforce orders" z l What a howl would go up, but the
 public has foolishly cuddled these
 Labor Unions until they have become
 diseased and are a public menace and nuisance sg
 Everyone comedies the right of any
 religious body, fraternal society, or a
 labor union to set up rules for their
 own guidance. But they have no right
 whatsoever to make laws for the con-
 troI of other people and when they in-
 terfere and force their presence where they are not wanted they should be
 locked up an prosecuted.
 These labor union nlanipulators, ant
 some members of unions are out and
 out anarchists and dangerous enemies
 to the public.
 Their minds turn to anarchy or, 'no
 law" just as true as needle turns to
 the north pole.
 Have a careful look at the stock and
 see.
 OPPOSE POLICE -n~
 When a manufacturer cannot afford
 to pay the price asked for labor, the
 unions in order to force him, go on .
 strike, picket, boycott, riot and set III
 general disorder. Then the police are
 called in to preserve peace. There has
