THREE CRIMES COMMITTED
IN M'NAMARA KIDNAPPING

In the arrest of the McNamaras in
Indianapolis three distinct and pre-
mediated crimes were committed by
those to whose tender mercies we are
asked to leave the determination of
tn guilt or Innocence of the labor
men. In the first place, the Nc
Namaras were the victims of the
crime of kidnapping, one of the most
serious and brutal offenses known to
the law. In the second place, the
McNamaras were the victims of per-
jury in that Burns and the prosecute
Ing attorney at Los Angeles, to Sc
cure an extradition, swore falsely that
the McNamaras were in California
at the time the alleged offense was
committed, and they swore falsely,
der arrest, and the Governor of Cali
fornia acted when, as a matter of
fact, they were not put under arrest
until week later. Finally, the Nc
Namaras were the victims of burglary
In that the national headquarters Of
their union were feloniously entered
and the safe cracked, the records Of
the union and the private property of
the McNamaras stolen. Throughout
the case their constitutional rights
have been flagrantly disregarded, and
now they are behind the bars in Los
Angeles, to be tried before a judge
famous for his anti-picketing and
otter anti-labor actions and in courts
long and VIGOROUSLY under the
domination of the Southern Pacific
crowd which has scommitted every
crime in the calendar. Yet we must

Blair Will Maintain
Emergency Hospital
Mass Meeting of Citizens Decides that
the Work Must Be Con-
tinued

BLAIR, Neb., Jan. 24.-(Special. "A mass
meeting was held in the city council cham
beTs last night for the purpose of bringing
together the representative men and women
OF the city to get an expression Of the gen.
eral public in regard to continuing or clos
ing up the emergency hospital that was
established in Blair five years ago The
hospital, which is strictly non-partisan,
has accomplished the most good in cases
of emergency, when the time was too short
to get patients to Omaha or other places,
and in the cases of transient patients.
The hospital was established and has
been maintained by voluntary donations
entertainments and a partial aid by the
county commissioners, for all expenses
above the receipts received from those pa
tients able to pay. The average deficiency
for the five years has been about $500 a
year, which has been met by the above
subscriptions and to prevent or overcome
the existing conditions the mass meeting
was called by the board OF the hospital
association. Rev. A. f. Marsh, rector of
the Episcopal church here has been the
main factor in the establishing of and
continuing of the hospital, ably assisted by
the Ladies' Auxiliary association and other
friends of the cause. II was unanimously
voted at last nights meeting to continue
the hospital work and steps were taken
and committees were appointed to con-
trive plan TO put the work on a paying
basis A list Of lodges, societies, associa-
lions and all other organizations of the
city was taken and the matter will be
presented to each with a suggestion that
small amount per member from one and
all be given to the hospital fund
The total debt at the present time Is
about $500 mainly for running expenses
this far through the winter, which his con-
| sidered not so bad, judging from reports
received from other hospitals over the
