work 20 it's citizens who spend their money
there but are not members Of the labor trusrs
Immediately the trust demands all the work
and that it be taken away from the antitrust
citizens. A riot breaks out and the labor trust
seeks to destroy the court house and force rne
people 70 go into their pockets and pay the
losses. The peace officers Of the people, In tnelr
pay, seek to preserve the peace ana save the
property; Immediately the unions protest and
exert every means in their power to prevent
the officers from protecting the people and their
property.
This same policy crops out in every effort
Of the community to protect itself and the COM
mon people from the oppression OF the labor
trust. The leaders oppose the police, oppose
the militia the courts, laws. manual training
schools education OF apprentices and every
other act or movement that benefits the people
but curbS the lawless license and stays the
oppressive hand Of that trust
This and preceding newspaper announcements
from my pen regarding the labor trust and suS-
gesting remedies are paid for from the pro-
ceeds Of the business Of making Postum Food
Coffee and Grape-Nuts.
The labor trust (nOt our own workmen) has
conducted a long and persistent war OF boy
cOtt and impudent tyranny In an expressed DE-
termination to ruin that business, because we
declined TO withdraw our advertising from
papers when ordered TO by the labor trust In
their efforts to break up" such papers. We re-
fused to Join these conspiracies and steadfastly
maintained our right to be free American cih-
zens. and not slaves But hell hath no fury like
that of the labor trust when its orders are
not Obeyed, and the depths Of Tickery, boycott,
lying and all the black pools Of labor union
vengeance have been searched for means TO
ruin us, which might have been effective but
for the magnificent rally to our support BY the
great American public, whose members Will not,
when they know il, tolerate such trust OppreS-
sion and prefer to actively rebuke IL by buying
our products These malicious acts of the labor
trust reused us to the dangerous condition IN
which the people are placed by the labor unions.
and we took up the campaign for freedom 1r
has been a public work in the interests Of hu-
manity, trying to rouse the people TO act for
their own protection
The Postum Co. owns space in nearly every
prominent paper in America and has a right TO
use that space for its public announcements Of
which this Is one.
Such papers naturally must publish paid-for
advertisements under contract, no matter how
the labor trust may object to having the facts
made public
This article you are now reading has been
sent to practically every prominent paper IN
America with offer 70 pay our regular rates for
it's insertion. It has not been sent 20 the ''yel-
low" journals for they are open enemies OF the
citizens Of any community who will not bow to
the labor trust. and we cannot bring ourselves
to pay money to support anarchy and murder
breeders
A few papers to whom It has been offered
will refuse to run IL.
They fear the labor trust.
They publish free, day By day articles fatter-
ing to that trust.
They wilfuIly 'TzilT' any news detrimental 70
the trust, smother the items Of violence and
lawlessness and lick the boots OF the labor
leaders no matter how dirty they are=oS how
much the publisher inwardly hates himself Tor
his prostitution.
Such papers are the most poisonous enemies
of the common people.
They Dander to the organized few, the two
million trust members. and are too cowardly 20
speak for the IS million citizens, because the
latter are generally unOFganized and do not
have committees TO protest TO the publisher
But it Is high time for the people 70 take ac-
ton regarding these cOW0rdly and misleading
papers The citizens want all the facts spread
before them. so~they can reach an Intelligent
conclusion on these subjects, and the papers
that suppress one set OF facts and, through fear
Of a trust, make public only the pTejudiced
statements Of that trust. should be known. and
they can be known Every reader Of this article
is urged to purchase one or more prominent
morning papers Of July 4th and afternoon
papers OF the day before. In smaller cities with
no paper on the 4th buy the issue OF the Sd II
anyone Of those papers does not contain this
article, you can know it as one Of the smooth
enemies OF the people Suppose you write the
publisher and ask him why he fears to allow the
cause Of the citizen to be presented In his col
umns and why he allies himself on the side
Of the trust and against the masses? Push them
to go on record and then act your pleasure. Ex-
cuses viii not excuse. A paper is either for the
interests of the people or II Is under control OF
the labor some other trust. Find out and
this is sure way.
1nen let the advertisers ask the publisher OF
that paper why he fears to stand out frankly
for the citizens and the good Of the community.
Why he panders TO a trust seeking in every way
to dominate business, politics and the entire
social machinery.
Let any man become prominent In endeavor-
ing 10 preserve the peace when labor trust riots
are In progress and that mans business will be
bOycOtted and he ruined if possible. All huSl-
ness is menaced- Every peace-lOvlns, property
owning citizen must act or this growth towards
anarchy and the destruction OF property and
personal liberty Will grow until The burden can
