THE STORY OF THE PEANUT
SHELLS.

AS everyone knows, G. w. Post OF
Battle Creek, Michigan, is not only a
maker Of breakfast foods, but he is a
strong individual who believes that the
trades.unions are a menace to the lib
erty of the country.
Believing this, and being a natural
born" scrapper for the right, as he
sees it, Post for several years past,
has been engaged in ceaseless wal
fare against The Labor Trust" as he
likes to call it,
Not being able to secure free and
untrammeled expression of his opin-
Ions on this subject through the regular
reading pages of the newspapers he
has bought advertising space for this
purpose, just as he is accustomed to
for the telling of his Postum STORY"
and he has thus spent hundreds Of
thousands Of dollars in denouncing
tradesunionism.
AS result Of Posts activities the
people now know whole lot about
these organizations: how they are
honeycombed with graft, how they OBJ
struct the development OF legitimate
business, curtail labors output, hold
up manufacturers, graft upon their'own
membership. and rob the public. Natu-
rally Post is hated by the trades
unonists, and intensely.
He employs no union labor, SO they
can not call out his men, and he defies
their efforts at boycotting his products.
The latest means Of getting" Post is
the widespread publication of the story
that car which was recently wrecked
In transmission was found to be loaded
with empty peanut shells, which were
being shipped from the south to Posts
establishment at Battle Creek
This canard probably originated with
President John Fitzgerald of the Chi
cago Federation of Labor, who, it is
said stated it publicly, as truth.
Post comes back and gives Fitz-
gerald the lie direct He denounces
Fitzgeralds statement as a deliberate
talsehood an underhanded and coward
ly attempt to injure his business, hav-
ing not the slightest basis in fact. AS
such an effort it must be regarded. 1t
Is significant that this statement about
the peanut shells is being given wide
newspaper publicity. In the patent
inside" Of an eastern country paper
ind it, and the inference naturally is
that labor-unionites are insidiously
spreading this lie
An institution Cor MANI which
Will resort to moral intimidation and
to physical force, that will destroy ma
chinery and burn buildings, that will
main and Kill If necessary to effect its
ends, naturally would not hesitate to
spread falsehood for the same pur-
poses.
We admire Post. While we have no
enmity toward labor unions. so long as
they are conducted in an honest, live
and-Iet-IiYe kind Of q way, we have had
enough Of the tarred end of the stick
to sympathize thoroughly with what he
is trying to do. He deserves support.
man like Post can not be killed, even
with lies. They are boomerang, every

by labor unions) to put US out Of bust.

Lynchburg TO Have Saloons.

After having been no license territory
since March, 1909, Lynchburg on last
Friday voted by a majority of eighty
i've out of a vote of 1858 to return to
the open saloon.
The result of the election proved a
great setback to the anti-saloon league
and those who were most active in lead
ing the fight for the drys, for only two
years ago the city voted dry by ma
Jority of 191, and with this margin to
go on those opposed to the saloon felt
that victory was surely theirs. But it
seems they failed to keep pace with the
vets in the matter of qualifying new
voters, which fact alone cost them the
victory.
A statement has been given out by
the drys that they will contest the re-
suit of the election, notice of which viii
be filed within the required ten DAVIS.
The principal ground for such contest.
1t is said, will be based on the failure of
all but one of the registrars to require a
written application. for registration, as
seems to be required by statute.
The contest, If inaugurated, will prob
ably operate to prevent the opening of
the saloons for some time.
