Please allow me the privilege to
answer the statement in your paper,
dated Dec. "A, 1911. the writer styled
himself as Union Man, which by
the tone of his letter. he is blacker
than the picture and literature he is
talking about. He said he wanted to
ask the union man what he thought of
those Prohibitionists? Tell him for
me that some of those prohibitionists
are the Whitest and most laW-abiding
citizens Of Martins Ferry. If he IS a
union man. why don't he take the adj
vice of his labor leaders. President
Gompers said, eThat the time had
come when liquor and organized La
Dor must be divorced John Mitchell
said 'sThat liquor was the downfall of
organized Labor" T.9L. Lewis says
st is in their bylaws that the sale of
liquor is forbidden at picnic P. j..

HERR Is no gainsaying the won
derful work done by William ].

6Et1E Is no &8lnSay1ng the won
derful work done by William J..
Burns In hunting down the Nc
tNamaras. He is now q national figure
greater than Theodore Roosevelt, and
AZ he will, he can supplant William ].
Bryan as q leading attraction on the
Chautauqua circuit. He can write for
ithe Ladies' Home Journal or syndi-
cate his matter in the Sunday papers.
He will be interviewed wherever he
goes and his opinions ION the tariff,
the slump in poetry, the twenty great
est men, fads in the public schools,
trial marriage and other subjects will
be received gratefully by waiting
world.
Burns has made good, more than
good. He worked his case up ais no
other detective has in many long
years.
In fact, 1t Is doubtful whether a de-
fective, except in fiction, ever devel-
pped case as thoroughly, slCillfully
and masterfully as he did.
So It is but right to ask what Burns
is.
In the first place, he is not an indi.
Eidual. He is a system and an organi-
cation. More than that, he is a symp-
ton. More than that, he is one of the
most appalling symptoms OF social
disease we could possibly have.
The detectives created by Poe, Ga
jboriau and Doyle, as well as such abid.
ing favorites as Old Sleuth and Nick
Carter, usually operated alone and de-
pended for results on their own mas
eiVe minds, on their powers of dedmc-
tlon, their keenness of observation,
their slperhumRn strength, or some
other similar trait.
It all makes good reading, but there
ain't no such person.
The simple detective, owrking alone,
would be about as powerful against
modern society as savage armed
with q war club would be when con-
fronted with q machine gun.
The modern detective is an organi-
cation, and that organization reaches
its highest point in Burns.
His noted predecessors, such as the
Pinkertons. were also or are organiza-
tions. They have men planted in var
ious unions, or have men in the police
or detective departments of various
cities. But they never quite succeed
ed In what Burns has done They
never made the Postofiice Department,
the United States Secret Service and
municipal detective forces contribute
ing and subservient parts of the Will
liam J. Burns Detective Bureau, In
corpurated. That, however, is what
he has done, and it marks a significant
Wheeling majority. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1907-192?, 1911-12-28

phase in the development Of the po-
licing power.
II There is an antiquated idea that
the police are organized to protect
that indefinite, semi-imb ecilic monster
known as the public. There is a fur
ther antiqliated idea that the detee-
tives of the police department are
simply workers whose aim it is to
uncover the hidden operations of the
criminal world. Another antiquated
notion is that the police power is a
public thing that should be operated
for public benefit.
I But this is all wrong. Actually the
police are now parts of a great pri-
waite enterprise, run for private gain,
and to protect private enterprise.
They are not organized for the pur-
pose of protecting the poor, weak
minded public. Their chief function
is to keep in subsection that evil giant,
Labor
Not so long ago if Labor moved he
could be dubbed into submission.
Then, as he grew in strength, it be-
came necessary to shoot him up and
hang some individuals to serve as a
lesson But he seems to have grown
jim stature, increased in strength and
| developed in cunning. So he can be
met only by the detective organiza-
ton.
Great combinations of capital have
| literally turned over to the detectives
the work of subduing Labor. Nation,
State and cities have given them pow.

HOW We ARE eoyeED.
Arthur Brooks Baker, Socialist Lee
turer, Wants to Tell Us
About It.

The Socialist Party Local OF Mar
tins Ferry, is putting up cards and
bills, announcing the first number on
their Lyceum course, Arthur Brooks
Baker, who is going to talk to us
about "How We Are Gouged.s Seems
to us the Socialists have an ungoV
ernable penchant for selecting irri-
tating subjects. If we have to be
gouged, and according to our trust
and tariff experts. we do. why not
have it over with and forget it?
Really, we don't need the talented
lecturers Of the Socialist party to
keep it ever in our minds of the two
sides Of the Socialist philosophy, give
us the bright one every time. Don't
tell us how we are gouged. Tell US
how every working man can have a
home of his own and feed his family
three good meals with four hours
work day, and spend the rest of his
time sitting instwo dollar seats at the
ball game roofing for the home team.
1t may not be true. it may not be half
as true as the undisputed, undeniable,
cast iron fact that we are gouged by
the sugar trust, but it's SO much more
interesting.
Mr.. Baker is going to lecture at
the Lyric theatre, South 4th Street,
Sunday, Dec. 81, at 8 p. m. Why not

how we are gouged and uaint US one

Referring to the Mcnamara settle

American Economic League, the
Single tax organization, issues al state
ment, which concludes as follows:
But there has come a rude awaken
ing
Plutocracy does not know the mean
ing Of honor. Such sentiment may have
place in war, but that is different.
The worst that can be said about war
was said By General Sherman. Pluto
cracy's methods can not be accurately
described IN terms So mild. The de-
mand has gone out for more victims.
Labor has not only surrendered q
temporary advantage, It has placed
itself in position where plutocracy
may, If so treacherously inclined, in
flict great damage upon it. A frame
up may now be designed and carried
out with apparent impunity and every
prospect of success against any labor
leader obnoxious to plutocratic inter-
ests. No matter how plain the CON
spiracy or how ridiculous the manu-
featured evidence, it viii be hard now
to convince the public that such is the.
case in the face Of claims made and
proven wrong nj the Mcnamara case.
