tective Burns. Roosevelt says in part,
IF the explosion was not an acci-
dent, but the deliberate act of any
man or men, it was an outrage of
dastardly iniquity, for 1t was one of
the crimes in which the murderer, in
order to crafty his spite against an
individual, not merely wrecked that
individuals property, but,with callous
indifference. takes the lives of
scores of innocent people as an Incl
dent to the achievement of his sinis
ter and criminal purpose.
POOR SERVICE FOR UNION.
NO woCse service can be rendered
by labor union leaders to the cause of
unionism than that whirh ;doy render
when they seek to identify the cause of
unionism with the cause of any man
guilty of a murderous attack of this
nature. If they have no money to
provide counsel for themselves, then
it would be entirely proper for any
body of men to furnish them the re-
quisite funds, simply as an incident in
securing them a fair trial. But it is
grossly improper to try TO create pub
lie opinion in favor of the arrested
men, simply because the crime OF
which they are accused is committed
against a capitalist or corporation, and
because the men who are charged
with committing it are members of a
labor union
