Citizens Protection.

Citizens lave been careless IN con-
sidering the insidious moves made by
the Labor Trust seeking control over
affairs, It is time that each free man
questioned carefully into the intent
and purpose of each candidate for
public office, without. regard to his
politics.
It's a question of protection against
trust growth now. If a candidate open
ly or llidde1lly stands for Labor I'm
ion domination, hoping thereby to be
elected by the Labor Trust members
together with the votes of the citizens
who don't realize the danger, vote for
him If you think best to put your af-
fairs and liberty, in the. hands of the
leaders of this great trust. But 1t viii
be a black day for Americans when
any trust gains power enough to enact
their own laws and to dictate when
freeman shall work, when quit and
how much he shall pay to support the
managers Also what articles shall
be bought. What cars used. What
stoves, hats, shoes, clothing and even
the hearse used to bury the dead
The foundation of our free Republic
is based on the principle that every
man must be equal before the law and
every man protected under the law"
The Labor Trust openly asserts 1T
must have special immunity from the
law and special new laws to give its
members advantage and control over
the common people.
With a knowledge of the facts, clti-
zens car, vote as their ideas of patriot
ism and individual safety direct.

A Dangerous Trust

enough to stand fearlessly for the
rights of the great masses of workers
and doors who are not trust members.
Just so sure. as tools of the Labor
Trust Cor any other trust) are elected
to public office, Just SO sure, the COM
mon man will suffer. That applies even
down to petty officers. II an ordinary
policeman secures his position from the
Labor Trust he is slow to protect the
citizens in time of trouble. Many such
an officer has been blind to the slug
ging of innocent citizens and only too
willing to allow violence If done by a
labor union slugger.
Probably mo- more glazing falsehood
and impudent appeal for sympathy was
ever sent broadcast than the late as
sertion by the leader of the Labor
Trust when he announced that the
American Federation of Labor was one
Of the strongest elements known for

the trust orders a strike, the public au-
thorities imm ediately set about to pro-
vide some sort OF; protection for the
citizens and their property. A single
clipping from, a late paper illustrates
the feeling.

The Value of Education.
According to the United States
government last year we had in this
country 15,00O,00O men over thirty
years of age. Twelve millans were
educated in the common schools, q
100000 of them could neither read
nor write. Six, hundred and fifty
thousand graduated from the high
school, $4,000 from the university and
college. There is published in the
United States book, Who's Who in
America It5contains the names Of
10000 men in the headlines and spot
light of their profession and calling.
And out Of the 100000 men who
went to the common school one in
5000 has his name on the pages of
that book, and out of the 100000 who
could neither read nor write none has
his name in that book; out of the
$50, that graduated out of the
high school one out of 400 has his
name in that. book and of the 350,000
that graduated from the universities
and colleges one in AZ has got his
name in the pages Of that book It
pays then to feed the boys and girls
something that will make them noble
and grand.
How Not to Build Character.

and build a character like a woman

how to bake a cake. She says take
some milk and flour. II I am going
to make a big cake l use lots of flour,
and if l am going to make a small
one don't use SO much. Put in some
butter and a pinch Of salt Put in an
egg and beat it like you would a car
pet only not so hard. Then a little

LABORERS NEEDED
Sundays Friday Afternoon Sermon
Treats of Mankind as a Harvest

. fISIOs
Christ as non-discriminator, but
one who did not get on his knees to
men in order to do them good. One
who never prayed for the world as
whole was the character which
Rev. w. A. Sunday brought before the
minds of his audience at yesterday
afternoons meeting in the tabernacle.
He presented the Saviour in the light
of a laborer among the masses. Sew
eral verses chosen from the tenth
chapter OF Mathew, dealing with the
sending Of the twelve apostles out
among the nlultitudes to spread Chris
tianity, were selected as the basis
for the sermon
Rev. Sunday spoke OF the millions of
people who are not Christians in the
world as being the harvest field where
laborers were needed, and urged the
truly religious men and women to go
forth like Christ and his apostles ana
work in the field. His strong theme
was that If person was really i'm
bued with the spirit Of Christ then
that person would not be contented
unless he was engaged in saving
souls as his teacher and set the ex-
pithy extracts from Rev Sundays dis
course yesterday afternoon, together
with the characteristic "Sundayisms"
used:
! Devil Deals With Glasses.
God doesn't look at the color of a
mans hair or the size of his bank ac-
count. He has nothing to do with
classes. The devil sifts the classes.
''The lives that many Of you church
members are living today are in the
| flesh and not in the true faith of
Jesus Christ You ask. What would
Jesus do?' If Jesus lived in Ottumwa
he'd be down here in this tabernacle
right up on the platform at work, in.
stad. of lying around home chewing
the rag about me and my methods like
lot Of church people are doing this
! afternoon
The first real evidence you havs
that you are a real Christian is that
you'll want to reach out and save
those who are not Christians.
| "No church has any business to put
man on the official board who is not
an active and professed Christian.
| 81 devoutly believe that in time peo
pie will get so they will rather die
than yield to sin. That is the proper
religious spirit. But when that time
comes the devil will be right there or
the spot putting in his plug just the
same. The devil didn't have anything
to do with ME coming here to Ottum
wa 1t was the Lord and his agents
tat brought me here, not the devil
The devil--and the brewer is his right
hand bower in the game!. Betcherlife
the devil isn't going around routing
