WHO SHIPPED THIS BEER INF

Coffeyville officers raided ware

to the county seat where the sheriff
is guarding it. The ownership of the
goods is still in question, but the

were too well satisfied with your con-
dition to take the trouble to safeguard
it. You thought that so long as the
enemy was afar off there would be no
danger of a battle; you forgot that
when an enemy has been repulsed in
the broad light of day it may with
draw for a time to formulate another
plan and then to return under cover
of the darkness and attack while you
are sleeping at your post. Capital will
never give up the fight against organ
lied labor so long as there are men
and women who must work for
bread.
In conclusion, we will ask you, care
less brethren, whether you can pursue
your business, working eight or ten
hours day and at the same time
keep in touch with all that is being
done by organized labor? Can you
keep yourselves informed as to what
has been discovered by the greatest
thinkers of our times who are study
ing this great problem? Do you not
think it would be vastly better if you
had union paper entering your home
which would keep you up to date in
your knowledge Of union affairs? Or
would you rather remain in your care

imagining that your own wee, small
head contains enough brain matter to
solve all the riddles OF the money-made

THE LABOR PAPER.

OF one thing we are convinced: No
matter how inferior a labor paper may
be, it stands always a battery be-
tween the union and it's enemies. Take
away the union paper, even though it
be miserable trayesty upon the art
of Journalism, and you have removed
the vehicle which could and would
have conveyed to the public, whose
sympathies and support you need, a
true expression of your grievance; you
have given to your enemies an open
field, with the power to misrepresent
and malign you without check or hin
drance: you have removed the only
means of defense when the "grafter"
seeks to manipulate your organiza-
ton; you have lost the best textbook
OF your education in the school of ex-
perience; you have shown that you
| are Indifferent to your own welfare;
and that you are willing to accept all
that can be given you, but you are not
willing to give anything in return
Remember that in supporting the
so simply for the sake of the editor.
| 1t is your own welfare which is at
stake. You are part Of the great
| scheme of organized labor, and the pa
in your hearts should be the con-
| seriousness that whatever is to the in
| terest of one is to the interest of the
other To withdraw or refuse your
support may appear little thing, but
| it is the little things, the infinitesima1
quantities, which, welded together,
make up the most tremendous crea.

| is the little facts which you are not

which will one day have welded them

as a problem which you must solve,

day when you will be required to
