the union, was made last night when
warrants charging % Of the union men
with dynamiting cars, destroying prop
erty and Other, offenses were sworn
out by Deputy Detective Berry, at
the instance OF District Attorney Mac
Dade. -
The accused strikers were arrested
and taken at once to Mdia, the coun-
ty seat. where they were arraigned
before Justice Williamson, who held
each under $1,000 bail for a hearing
Friday afternoon.
The defendants are Patrick J. Shea.s
organizer: William v. Lockhart presi-
dent Of the trolleymen's union; Phillip
Cass. Michael pougherty, Fred Phil-
lips, Thomas Burke. Noah Slant, Ed
ward Boyle, Clarence Butts, Frank
Cox and William White. Phillips was
the only one who got bail.
District Attorney MacDade has not
yet revealed his hand, but it is said
that the gang of private detectives
who have, been working on the case
for several weeks have probably
baked up" sufficient evidence" not
only to justify charges against those
taken into custody yesterday but a
number Of others

TRlDts UNION PUBLICITY
By REV. CHAs, sT[[zEl
Eighth Of q Series Of Articles on
Practical Method Of Union X
~ .'.:~= Advertising. ::sS
The Three Most Important Ele-
ments in An Advertising
Campaign.

AT least three elements should be
prominent In an advertising campaign.
There must be found the element Of
enthusiasm. Everybody knows how
much this means in business life. It
counts to a remarkable degree in a
public meeting. It is really the most
important factor in a propaganda Of
Whatever nature. It must enter into
q trades union advertising campaign
to such an extent that outsiders will
come to believe In 1t, because its ex-
ponents are on fire for It. Enthusiasm
is highly contagious. but so is it's
counterpart. No advertising campaign
can secceed If the managers and their
assistants are not constantly alive.
The spirit of enthusiasm In the trades
union will do more to attract the out
slider than any other element. II it
to find its way into the unions ad-
vertising. But If it is absent in the
union, it may be cultivated, both in
the membership and in the advertis!
ing. Genuine enthusiasm ned not be
boisterous, nor In any way unseemly
The object to- be attined Is to make
men see that trades unionists, are
themselves intensely interested In
their work, not only for their own
sakes, but also for the sakes Of the
great mass of workingmen.
Second: The spirit of optimism is
closely allied to that of enthusiasm.
The successful advertiser is confiden,
that he will win. It should be the
Object fro1
the world understand that the labor
movement is the greatest movement
Of modern times, and that the trades
union is today giving the best ex-
preston to- this movement It should
also be made very clear that the labor
movement is bound to be successful.
That no human power can stop it's
onward march. NO one, likes to be
identified with a losing proposition.
There is enough in the trades union
mavement to inspire the great mass
OF working people and to induce them
to become affiliated with it.
Third: The spirit Of expectancy
will do much towards bringing men
into the trades union movement To
have confidence in ones enterprise
will beget the confidence Of others.
Furthermore, to believe in the people
Will cause them to believe in you.
According to your faith be it unto
you" Is a good advertising principle.
1t is this element Of human nature
to which the commercial advertiser
constantly appeals. because we are
always seeking that which will give
either pleasure or relief. The trades
union has an unusual opportunity to
satisfy this hope for better things.

RAISING FALSE ISSUES,

Labor produces everything-Gover-
nor Harris. Ohio.
Labor is the one source Of wealth.
Governor Hanly, Indiana.
The above utterances were made by
Governors Harris of Ohio and Hanly
OF Indiana in their Labor Day pro-
CARNATIONS. Both Of these executives
are avowed opponents Of saloons, and
their main platform Is regulation Of
an acknowledged evil, as present con-
Quoted, by legislative enactments.
They would have workers believe this
question is the real vital issue.
If labor produces everything and is
the source Of all wealth, would not
real craftsmanship consist in discuss
ing and even ehampioning the cause
Of millions Of those wealth producers
who are now in abject want?
If labor produced everything, what
has labor done with it's wealth? Has
1t squandered it in saloons? Has It
handed it over to those who preach
morality and then gladly formed
bread lines and became criminals and
tramps, to be punished by machinery
whose wheels are creased by the out
ooAu' Az" La III 6OItou uduUS
Some will say that the liquor ques-
ton Is not an issue. and should not
be referred to bya< labor paper We
differ with this statement when a plea
for statutory morality is raised by
governors who publicly acknowledge
the workers claim. How can the
source of wealth be interested in side
shows financed by the very men who
have robbed the workers?
Temperance is virtue, and virtue
can not be made possible by law. All
other plans are only politics, unworthy
the attention Of thinking men, in view
OF the larger question: why do the
producers Of all wealth live in the
House Of Want? ~
The world is crying for statesmen
no side-show bankers need applv.-

A FABULOUS MONSTER,

If there is anyone who should be
happy it is the public. So many peo-
pie are working overtime purely for
the benefit of the public, that its
schooner Of bliss should be running
over into the spittoon. Railways,
tramways, telegraphs, telephones and
the Lord knows what not, have been
built by kindhearted corporations for
the public's convenience only. All that
nature provides or the ingenuity of
man can contrive, has been placed at
its service. Even lawyers, notorious
though they are for their rapacity. are
banded together in "bar associations
for the protection of the public, and
have succeeded in procuring legisla-
ton that effectively prevents nom
association lawyers from preying on
the public.
The newspapers, too, are published
solely for the edifcation Of the pub
lie. Also they are the public's strong
defense in times Of trouble In fact,
the public is as rich in defenders
as In benefactors, and Cerebus is a
four-ausher compared with them in
watchfulness. No greedy carpenter
can demand an extra two-bits a day.
but the contractors will proclaim the
outrage from the house-tops in the
interests Of the public. No mechanic
can attempt to hold UP the railway
service but they will be denounced
as enemies Of the public and Of pros
perity, by all the mouthpieces of the
c. P. r.: No railway can raise it's
freight rates but the watchful whole
saler' will fly to arms in defense Of
the public. No government can at
tempt to graft but the opposition will
