How "Red" Wright Got Square on the
Coffeepot.

Red Wright was man of quick
and furious temper, while Jim Don
ovan was as calm and Unconditional
as his partner was violent.
The two prospectors were cooking
breakfast in their mountain camp
one morning when the coffeepot
happened to be Reds particular
charge. The bacon, under Dono-
vans supervision, was almost done,
so Red set the coffeepot on the fire
for a final boil. One Of the sticks
burned in two, and the pot upset.
Red flew into a rage, and, jumping
for the colreepot, he kicked it from
one end Of the camp to the other
and back again. Donovan watched
him with calm interest, and when
Reds fury had expended itself Don
ovan pulled his sixshooter and filled
the coiTeepot full Of holes.
"By gracious, MANI cried Red
wringing his hands. "What did YOU
do that for? We can't make nc
moro coffeew
"Do you think I'm goin' to stand
here and see a son-of-a-gun of a cof'
feepot get the best of friend Of
mine" demanded Donovan as he
returned to his bacon.-Lippincott''

Methods.

Omaha, June 10.-Albert Young. now
appearing as states witness in the
trial Of Cornelius P. Shea, president
of the. international Union of Team
sters came to Omaha during the team
sters strike here in October, 1906, and
made a proposition to do the very
thing which he now charges Shea with
doing.
This at least Is the positive asser-
ton Of Ben Keegan, president Of Oma-
ha teamsters' union. Young at that
time was national organizer.
HE called on me-" said Keegan to-
day, and told me he had gang of
twenty men in Chicago; he wanted my
confidence and wanted me to point out
the leaders Of the nom unionists and
he figured on securing recruits in large
numbers and figured on making a good
showing for himself as an organizer.
He told me that sIuggers could drop
into Omaha do the work and get away
without danger of Identification.
"He told me that Shea favored moral
persuation, while he thought the hos
pital was as good for gathering re-
cruits. I brought my foot down right
there and told Young that If he at
tempted any such tactics in Omaha !
would turn him over to the police

Ship From the Orient Brings Fur.
ther Advices of Famine in
Central China

VICTORIA, B. c., Jan. 9-The
steamer Shinoeno which arrived TO-DAY
from the Orient brought further adj.
vices from the famine in central China
The population affected is placed at
100000, of which Viceroy Tuan
Fang estimates that 100000 are in
actual want, mostly starving. The
famine area is about 10000 SQUARE
miles, embracing between 20 and an
large walled cities besides the scatter.
ed country population. The figures
given from nine large cities show 800-
900 starving refugees have alreadv
collected, no count Of those having
migrated south or congregated In the
walled cities outside the famine dia-
trict having been taken.
Mr.. Bostwick, sent from Shanghai
to investigate, says all these must per
ish from starvation unless fed bv the
government or public charity. He es-
Inmates the daily expenditures to feed
four millions now starving at $4,000
while the period Of relief must be ex-
tended over some months. With tens
of thousands Of starving handled with
in the walled cities it is feared epidem-
les will follow and add to the hor-
rors of famine.

ONLY UNION MEN.
Illinois Court Says They Alone Are
Capable.

Circuit Judge James w. Craig at
Danville, ILL.,, rendered a decision of
Importance to union labor men. as
we'll as to employers Of laborers in
ruling on bill of exceptions in the
case of John A. Lewis VS.. Edward
Lewis, bill to enforce a lien The de-
cision is to the effect that the only
scale OF wages known to the general
public is that maintained by the un-
ions, and unless otherwise stipulated
in contract, union wages must be the
standard of wages figured on. Follow
ing is the decision in brief:
1T can be said that the price Of the
Bricklayers' union Is known. The
price of the other is not known. Had
the defendant wanted his work done
lower that the union labor, it would
have been fair for him to have said
so, and then the complainant in TAX
ing the contract would have taken this
standard Of wages figured on. Follow
work. p
Il have no doubt but that at the
time the employment was made both
parties understood and knew that
nearly every man that was capable of
doing the work was union man.
and that by force of circumstances
union labor was ODE employed to do
the work, and now after the work is
done, it is claimed that perhaps some
person or persons could have been
found outside Of the union to do the
work at a cheaper price. That is a
mere guess or speculation, when it is
clearly shown that nearly every man
that Is capable Of doing the work be-
longs to the union" .s',@F =.

JAIL LABOR LEADERS
ON JUDGE-MADEL LAWS
Organized Employers, Aided BY
Judges Would Jail Agitators
or Exhaust Funds.
TO Make Sympathetic Strikes a
Conspiracy-Plot is Being
Exposed.

Chicago, Jan. 10.-The we'll defined
plot Of the Chicago Employers Asso-
citation to make law" on the labor
question with the help Of judges elect
ed by workingmen is beginning to ma
terialize.
The decision of the Supreme Court
of Illinois in the Franklin Union cases,
reported yesterday. has given the en-
ployers fine hemp rope for organized
labor. That this rope is to be used to
jail every agttator that gets trouble
some was shown in the labor con-
spiracy trial before Judge Ball yester-
day, when Assistant States Attorney
Miller said the Franklin decision gives
power to put in Jail every member Of
the Chicago Federation of Labor.
He will not do that, but the Chicago
Employers Association with it's legal
bureau is preparing to have enough
law made to enable it to put into pris-
on or tie up in litigation every labor
union that gets troublesome.
Litigation vii Exhaust Funds.
Even If it's victims are not jailed the
litigation will exhaust union funds and
impoverish the members.
The working class must elect it's
own Judges If it is to be saved from
continual legal annoyances. Let it
control the judges and then the en-
ployers will be hailed into court on
conspiracy charges.
The law Is always the same. The
interpretation is what makes the diff
ference. The workers have the votes.
For weeks before tn teamsters' strike
In 1905 the capitalist daily papers re-
ported numerous efforts Of labor unions
to secure arbitration of the garment
workers strike.
Large business interests said there
was nothing to arbitrate, and that the
strike was lost. No talk Of conspiracy
was then heard. 1t was not till after
the strike had begun and Levi Mayer
took charge Of the bosses side that it
became conspiracy.
of advancement, the daily press, came
to the front and stood in solid
phalanx by the side Of Mayer. Since
then the strike has been conspiracy.
Unions Nanted i 4 rrbtit btitratio
q ct r
mel, dIaI too tos aritSsfe,
and were even begging Tor it, but the
business interests decided that. this
was the time to crush unionism among
the teamsters.
They now see that the teamsters are
stronger than ever, even though they
are devided into two factions.
Interests the Same.
This trial is making them recognize
that their interests are the same, no
matter whether the man be a follower
of the International or United Team
| sters' organization. Points that would
substantiate the efforts the men made
In 1903 to have 2 settlement Of the
difficulty brought about. were barred
by Judge Ball.
The business interests are determin-
ed to send these men to the peniten-
tiary and make this case a precedent
in labor circles. Business wants SYM
pathic action made conspiracy, that is,
sympathy between workingmen, but
when it comes to sympathetic action of
captains of industry, then it is per-
fectly proper and Of necessity should
be.

MOVEMENT IS ON FOOT .
To OPPOSE BIC TRUST
Farming Machinery Companies
Back Of Scheme to Fight
Big Steel Trust. =
Appeal to President Roosevelt to
Aid Them In Securing Fair
Treatment,

Cleveland, Ohio, Jan. 10.-A bitter
war which ultimately may have far
reaching effects on the manufacturing
interests of the country was precipi-
tated Tuesday, when a number of
farming machinery companies openly
declared their intention to fight against
the trust prices and methods of the
iron and steel combines of the United
States.
Their first move was to draft a
petition appealing to President Roose-.
velt and Congress to aid them in their
efforts to obtain just treatment at the
hands Of the steel company. The petit,
t1on calls on the authorities at WASH
1ngton to curb the power of the
trust and to make some new tariff
provisions which will break up the
Injurious combine" 1t has been sign
ed by prominent implement manufac-
turers throughout the country.
The declaration of war is the out
come of quiet meeting of the heads
OF farming machinery concerns, which
was held a few days ago in Chicago.
1t was decided then that something
must be done to curb the powers of
the "Steel Trust" in order to save the
smaller implement makers from ruin.
1t was the opinion of several of the
men that the farming interests of the
country were imperilled by the mono
pol1stic nature Of the iron and steel
business. According to the petition to
be sent in a few days to Washington
the prices of iron and steel are so high
at present that manufacturers of farm
Ing tools are unable to carry on their
business with profit.
William Meter, of Meter & Co..
M1ddletown, o., extensive manufacture
ers Of farm tools and machinery, is a.
leader in the fight on the combine.
THE present situation is so SER
ious," he said, that we feel the con-
tingency demands bringing the matter
directly before President Roosevelt. A
number Of prominent manufacturers
are in the move to see what can be
done to save the implement business
from the clutches of: the iron and steel
trust prices ,&z5 III a ,.s.

last sad rites, and to express their
sympathy and sorrow The Masonic
Temple in whinch the first services
were held was not large enough to
admit all who would have attended,
and every nook in the large hall was
crowded to it's limit of capacity, and
