FUTURE OF LABOR HANGS
ON BATTLE OF CALIFORNIA

That a geat crisis has been
reached, that the future of organ
lied labor is largely in the balance
and dependent upon the outcome
of the engagement being fought in
southern California, is clearly
demonstrated by the appeal for
funds to finance the contest that
was sent out by the American fed
Grafton of labor last week, and as
explained in a dispatch sent out
from the A. F. of l.. convention
in st. Louis last month.
There are 100000 Japs, Hindus
and Cinnamon in California at
this very hour, aiding the open
shop conspirators to beat down
wages. A great shipyard on the
coast is completely manned by
Japs, who work as carpenters, ma
chinists, engineers, ETC.; they are
invading the building trades; they
are monopolizing railway con-
struction; they are flocking into

Moreland, with the help of George
Bauswine, then pitcher, and Jack
Doyle, induced him to stick.
Jack Doyle was catching for Can
ton and when the teams met
again, Cy, with Doyle hack of the
plate, held Lima to four hits. AZ
ter he had beaten Cleveland TO
l in a 15-inning game, Pat Te-
beau bought him for $500 and Cy
became pitching majesty for the
Spiders.
How he improved before joining
Cleveland was shown against Nc
Keesport, when he shut out the
team without a hit or run and
famed IS men. Since then he
has participated in three no-hit-
no-run games and has made re-
cords which others will find it
hard to emulate, among others, the
feat of pitching 500 winning
games.
When Cy Young was purchased
from Canton by Frank De Haas
Robson, who owned the Cleveland
club, he was ordered to report TO
manager Gus Schmalz at the ball
grounds. "And don't let the sire ct
cars run over you, either, because
own the line and don't want a
damage suit" said Robson, as he
looked at the six-foot farmer.
When Young was uniformed, he
presented a grotesque appearance.

heartily applauded.
That game stands out more
prominently in Young's memory
than all of the wonderful battles
he has waged. Even his famous
no-hit no-run games do not COM
pare with it, in his opinion.
When Young was at the pinnacle
of his career he was the object of
that brand of nuisance so often
met with in hotel corridors and

COMPLETES WITH AMERICAN
CAPITAL AND LABOR

Japan has adopted the policy of
acquiring commercial supremacy
in the east and is gaining in the
struggle. 1t is variously estimat-
ed that American exports to the
oriental countries have decreased
20 to 40 per cent during the past
year, and as this outlet for Ameri-
can surplus products is gradually
closing an "overproduction" is
bound to become more and more
noticeable in this country. Amer
lean machinery imported by the
japanese capitalists is now being
utilized to kill off American trade
just as effectively and in the
same manner as the South African
Beers purchased guns from Great
Britain and then turned those
weapons against the country in
which they were produced.
Moreover, Japanese importa-
lions, manufactured at beggarly
wages at home, are pouring into
the American market at an in
creasing ratio and becoming a
constantly greater menace to Ia
Dor in this country. And none the
less serious Is the steady influx OF
Japanese coolies, laborers and me-
chanics on the western coast and
who are gradually working their
way across the Rocky mountains
and eastward.
In less than a decade white Ia
Dor of the Pacific coast will be
engaged in life and death strug-
gle to preserve the American
standard of wages and working
conditions. In fact, the bitter la
Dor war now in progress in south
ern California is fundamentally a
battle precipitated by powerful
capitalists to undermine the Amer
lean standard of living and drive
white workers to the Jap level.

TWO WIVES OF ONE
MAN ARE IN COURT

Allen Johnson, the C street
paint man, is in Judge Clifford S
court this week with two wives,
No. l suing for alimony of $3.50 a
month.
The prosecutor says he will not
prosecute for bigamy, as Johnson
is not thought to have known the
first wife was alive.
1t seems he married Alice
White in Wyoming in 1868. Two
children were born. He left her
and came west. Later he married
again, and his second wife died.
He says he thought No. L was
dead too. He married his present
wife, and she is with him in court.
No. 1 finally turned up and wants
alimony.
