PRISON MADE

Union Label Has Driven
Them Out of Business in
Michigan.

The 18th of October next the Illinois
Broom Company will retire from the
broom making business at the Michi-
gan state Prison in this city. They
employed about 200 conyicts.
Five months ago they gave notice
To the board of control that they de

as reason the activity of labor unions

this ideal method of conducting a non

that the convicts seems to have more
privileges than the open free and
nOn-union Mckec'S Rocks workers At
least the families of the convicts are
not morally dehased at the bch, st Of
foremen.
The union label is doing wonders. 1t
has taken the broom making industry
out OF the Michigan State Prison. 1t
has won the greatest struggle in wears
for the hatters. 1t is the symbol of
decent wages and decent hosrs. 1t bears
the stamp of american manhood first
and the almighty dollar last 1t is the

Stick to it.
The Posts, Parry's, Kirby's and their
parasites have Just found out that the
union label is "the little joker" of the
labor movement. They have tried in
vain To incite the American people
against labor leaders. But their work
has only Solidificd the labpring CO.

And it is Just such news as is issued
from the Michigan State Prison that
aggravates the beast.
The union label silently does the
business. 1t gets into the lair of the
enemy before they know it.
Long live the union label and the
noble men and women who call for it,

THE GUTTER

TO successfully fight the battles of
labor requires courage of a high order
The wage Garner without means who
goes on strike for more pay or to resist
reductions in wages and does it without
flinching is brave.
1t is such as these who have made
unionsm what it is today
1t sometimes requires or has required
high moral courage to even be identified
with unionism in localities where hos
tile commercial interests are in control.
and are INSCRIPTIONS enough to man
ipulate the police, the courts and the
law to serve their ends, regardless of
the rights of citizens.
Sometimes in strong union centers
feeling among union men may run high
upon certain issue, and to hold views
opposite to the majority may be un-
popular but if a member is honest in
his conviction he is entitled to respect,
provided he is not running counter to
the law of his union.
1t is the strong men with the cour-
age of their convictions who have re-
fused to be scared by the employers or
by commercial interests or by their fel-
low workers who have built up the
union movement.
The quitter never won strike nor
established right, nor union, nor
caused principle to be adopted.
The quitter seeks to avoid trouble ev-
en- by abiect surrender.
He seeks to sugar coat the union pill
to tickle the palate of commercial in
tereStS regardless of the rights involved.
In controversial matters, when his as
sociates divide sharply in opposing
groups, he seeks some middle or com
promise ground in the vain hope that
he can please both sides and consequent
ly has the respect of neither.
He has the brains of jellyfish and
| the backbone of an angleworm.
He is deeply susceptible to flattery
and a pat on the back by employing in
terests will cause his chest to expand
wonderfully.
Like steam engine without a COVER
nor, he has no control over his own
speed and. while glimmer of reason
might tell him he had a conviction and
ought to fight for it, his legs will run
away with him faster than he can
think.
If it is a strike he is liable to come
in the back door before the last of his
have gone out bv the front.
In a controversy among his associates
he can perform the acrobatic stunt oi
sitting on a fence and hanging Ovel
both sides at one and the same time.
He is not of the stuff of which mar
yrs are made.
= He has not single heroic figure in
he whole world.
Men of conviction, of purpose, of reso
lion, determination and tenacity. are
PPne ones who make history.
The quitter is OF very little use any
where and least of all in the trade'
union movement
His vacllating views and sail trim
ming methods win for him the contempt
of his associates.

EDITORIAL

The promoters of New County pro-
iects are getting busy, crystalizing
their plans to try to secure favorable
legislation from the Solons in Janu-
airy. If they can prevail on Gov. No
ell to open the way for consideration
of their propositions by the Legisla-
ture, hope is Entertained by at least
one set of them that of the proposed
Tyler Co. to be formed from slices OF
Pike and Marion Counties, that their
desires will be attained. Whether
the Gubernatorial estoppment is re-
moved or not this Legislature should
not waste its precious time in the
short session wrestling over such
vexatious and petty questions as
those.

The principle of international Con
citation is an idealism with which
we are intimately in sympathy, but
our better reasoning and observation
forces us to admit along with Roose-
welt and others. that the Peace of
the World is best conserved in the
present uncivilized state of the most
of it, by a strongly equipped and Ell
ficient!y drilled army and navy. AZ
terwhile we will get to the gradual
international disarmament or fleet
limiting proposal. The movement
started to this end is laudable one,
as everything has to have an intelli-
gently conducted agigatory cam
paign. But for the present its e
mighty consolation to an American
to know that our country ranks ia
vorably with the worlds powers in
the strength of its right arm either
on land or sea, and those who travel
or do business abroad, are most WV
idly reminded of this selfsame thing.
We do not believe in our government
posing as an international bully, but
we glory in the fact that she is able
to insist on good treatment for her
citizens andfag on whatsoever shores
they may happen to be found.

by our good editor-friend ]. n. Tur-

comfort in making the long journey
to Panama and back. They happen

trip and off course that opened up
quick and easy acquaintance. While
that trio as well as the couple of us
were throughly bohemian in doing

still we were thrown together a great

All this yowling about making the
carrying of Concealed Weapons a
Felony is an enthusiasm with which
we take no stock. The right to re-
strict the bearing of the deadly short
firearms, is recognized as properly
within the province of State Legis-
lation, but it is certainly pressing
the matter too far to classify such a
created effense in the column of high
crime. At best its but cleyer beat
ing around the language of the Uni

that guarantees to every citizen the
right to bear arms, to legisIate at all

Supreme Court of these United
States have declared that the State
Legislatures may prescribe how such
arms may be borne, and surely the
breach of a law purely of regulation
