Man Injured BY Failing Beam Dis
plays Great Fortitude.

Although felled to the earth Dy a
heavy beam, Walter Meikor lay on the
ground in front of No. 664 Livernois-
ST., and calmly pulled away at a
cigarette. A physician was summoned
and gave the injured man stimulants
in the form of whisky.
The physician saw that the man
was quite seriously injured and ad-
vised his removal to the hospital. Be-
tween sips of the liquor and puffs of
the cigarette, Meikor insisted he was
not badly hurt and wanted to return
to work.
Meikor lives at No. 131 Hammond
ave. He was assisting in raising the
house on Livernois-st., when the beam
gave way and fell on him.
He was finally taken to St. Mary's
hospital. where 1t was found that his
injuries are Of serious nature. He
will recover.

THE people OF the world have given
me money enough to spend In these
talks through the papers I'm trying to

Scores of letters have come to me

with them the old flint locks slept on

freedom, woven In a loom where the

But when these leaders tie up" any
industry no man can hold job who
refuses to pay fines even on trumped-

The workman is absolutely at the
mercy OF this band OF men who have
secured and mold control.

has raised his voice and appealed to
his fellows to rise and throw off the
yoke of Gompers ct al. But, as one
writes. AT every convention of the

l am charged with having first
brought to the attention OF the public
some years ago, the name Labor
Trust"
A trust is a combination of men or
organizations for the purpose of sell
ing their product at a profit and re-
stricting production to effect 1t.
We will say a large oil company
gathers in smaller ones and thus con-
trolls production.
The labor trust gathers in" local
trade organizations and thus has
power to say how much work each
man shall do.
The oil company then fixes prices.
The labor trust does likewise.
The oil company may use methods"
to force an unwilling dealer to join.
The labor trust men go further and
slug the independent man If he tries
to sell his labor without paying fees
and "obeying orders" They are both
exactly alike in purpose. which, in
both cases Is entirely selfish to gain
power and money for the leaders
Certain labor trust members do not
hesitate TO use violence, dynamiting
Of property, burning homes of indie
pendent men and even murder to
force obedience.
The oil company doesn't go so far.
Both are extremely dangerous TO
the welfare Of people and communi-
ties, for power placed in the hands of
few men either representing capital
or labor Is almost always abused and
the public suffers.
