THE STORY OF THE PEANUT
SHELLS.

As everyone knows, c. W. Post of
Battle Creek Michigan. is not only
maker Of breakfast foods. but he is a
strong individual who believes that the
trades=nnions are a menace to the lib.
erty Of the country.
Believing this. and being natural
born serapper for the right. as he
sees it, Post, for several years past
has been engaged in a ceaseless war
fare against The Labor Trust" as he
likes to call it.
Not being able to secure free and
untranmeled 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
trades-unienism.
As r-sult Of Posts activities the
people row know a whole lot about
these cFganizations: how they are
honey@ombed with graft, how they OBJ
struct the development of legitimate
business, curtail labor's output, hold
up manufacturers. graft upon theIpown
membership, and rob the public. Natu-
rally Post is hated by the trades
unionists. and intensely.
tie employs no union labor, so they
"an 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 Fftz-
gerald the lie direct He denounces
Fltzgerald's statement as deliberate
talsehood. an undetermined and coward
~ 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

We admire Post. While we have no
enmlty toward labor unions, so long as
they are conducted in an honest, live
ahd-let-liye kind of 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

PERRY DOvELL'S
NARROW ESCAPE

Last evening we visited Perry
Dovelps cabin and saw the wreck
made by the explosion Sunday
forenoon. The stove was blown
into many pieces, some of which
went through the roof. Every
pane of glass in the windows was
broken and the stove pipe was
driven through the roof. 1t is
almost a miracle that Perry was
not killed As il is, he carries his
right arm in a sling and has a bad
wound on the right side of his
head.
He says he has never had any
giant powder or caps about the
place and is at a loss to account
for the presence Of any of the stuff
in the stove. He has no well
d,fned suspicion against any one
and knows Of no enemy that w I'D
make an attempt on his life. He
founi a giant cap and piece of
the wrapping paper of a stick of
giant powder. but aside from this
he has no clcw.
