ANARCHISTS.

III HE statement of Clarence S. Darrow chief
L counsel for the MeNamaras who confessed to
afrocious crimes makes it very clear that the
brothers are physical force" and violent anarch-
lists at heart, and they should be dealt with ae-
cordingly
Mr. Darrow says that he did not consider the
Mcnamara who blew up the Los Angeles Times
building a murderer at heart. Mcnamara believed
that he had enlisted for a war" the war" be-
tween labor and capital, and that in blowing up
the building he was striking a blow for labor.
Every bomb thrower, every rcd-handed anarchist
believes, or pretends to believe, the same thing
when he murders a representative Of government.
If Mr. Darrow thought that the McNamaras con-
sdered they we're engaged in the war" he knew
just at that moment that they we're anarchists en-
titled to no mercy under the law with which they
were at war.
In view Of the explanation by Mr.. Darrow the
status Of the McNamaras and ali those engaged
in similar depredations becomes very plain. The
American Federation Of Labor cannot tolerate
Anarchists or assist in their defense and continue
to comand the respect of thousands in their own
ranks who have no sympathy with anarchy.
Had the McNamaras been freed other half crazy
men, who believed they we're enlisted in a war
between capital and labor, would have followed the
same tactics, blown up more buildings destroyed
more lives Of the innocent who are just much
workingmen as arc the so-called soldiers in the
war"
So. too. all those who are continually harping
on the war" between capital and labor intame
men TO deeds Of violence which cannot be toler-
ated if this republic is to continue to exist

STATE PRINTING BILLS
REGARDED AS EXCESSIVE.
Interesting Controversy at Meeting of
Special Investigating Committee.

Hartford, Conn, June 31.-The mat
ter of state printing was well aired
here today. Attorney B. NJ Holden
appeared before the special inyesti-
advised on good authority that there
are some good printing concerns which
are never invited to bid on state
printing. He mentioned the name Of
r. $. Peck of this city as one of the
"unfortunates.'
Comptroller Bradstreet said: Let us
not mince matters. I think I know
what you are talking about. Some
printers have advised me that they
do not wish to estimate on state print
ing The labor bureaus report has
been captured by MIR. Atwater5 of Mer-
iden- I understand that tabulated re-
ports are kept in form the year around
by Tim, and naturally he can do the
work cheaper than competitors"
Il don't know anything evidently
about this matter" said Representa-
tive Banks. I'VE all know that the
state printing bin, is enormous. If
someone would intelligently take up
the nl,tter there would be a big saw
ing. am too busy. I wish some
member of the committee might bo to
the bottom and see whether any rec
concentrations can be made to Dhe gen.
eral assembly on this matter. II L
had a couple of weeks thine I think I
might accomplish something"
Representative Nolan of this city, a
printer and a member of the commit
tee, said that the prevailing opinion
among Hartford printers here is that
state printing jobs are given to one
shop without seeking bids.
rs it not sc that union shops are
given the preference over non-union
shops2" asked Mr. Banks.
Yes, sir answered Mr.. Bradstreet.
.sWhy?''
Because they are cheaper. as a
rule
We'll, that's a good reason, if it is
so,'' said Mr. Banks; :'but if it is not
SO, there is no reason why non union
shops shouldn't do state work if they
do it cheaper"
Mr.. Holden read from the last re-
port of the comptroller an item of $120
paid to the Kellogg & BuIkeley COM
pany of this city for printing bank
checks for the state treasurer's Office.
Checks that I use are furnished by
the bank at a cost to the institution,
of s35 per thousand said Mr.. Holden.
II don't know why the state account
is net worth as much to a bank as
mine'
Senator Lortnsbury, chairman of the
committee, said there seemed to be
need Of q. central head for distribution
of state printing. Another hearing
will be held .Tulv B.
