A New Job
For Women
Pump Company Making Effort to Sub.
stitute Women For Men in
Iron Foundry.

Holyoke, Mass, July 20.-The Deane
Steam Pump Company, a branch Of
the International Pump Company, has
advertised for women to work in its
core making department. In these ad-
vertisements much stress has been
laid on the "neatness" of the place,
and stating that the making Of cores
is like making bread, except that no
flour is used. The company has en-
deavored to secure the services of
newly arrived Polish women, to &C.
cept positions at>low wages, only SLIPS
being offered for work now performed
by men at $2.75 per day. 1t is not
known as yet what the union iron
molders and core makers will do in
the event of this substitution. but it
is quite likely that with the introduc-
ton of women in this trade, the iron
molders will vigorously protest and
contest this innovation. So far as
known, this is the first general effort
ever made in this country to employ
women in the iron trades.

Story That Socialists Would Support
Anti-oSden Paper Was
Deliberate Lie.

Sundays Wheeling Register contain
cd story about the intended launch
ing of a daily newspaper in Parkers-
burg aimed against the Sentinel and
Dispatch-News, both of which papers
are said to be controlled BY H. G. Og-
den Of Wheeling, who also controls
the Intelligencer, News and Tele-
graph of this city. The story went on
to say that the Socialists would assist
in supporting the new venture. This
lie is effectually nailed by the follow
ing telegram received by the Major
ity from H. w. Houston:
To the Editor of the Majority:
In the issue of the Wheeling Regis
ter Of July 18th there appears an ar
ticle under the title of '.An Anti-O Ogden
Paper to be Started in, Parkersburg," "
in which the statement is made that
the proposed paper has the support
of the Socialists of Parkersburg and
vicinity. While the source of inspira-
ton for this article is not positively
known, it is a safe guess that it ema-
mated from some disgruntled politi-
clans. and political aspirants. Rival
gangs of political grafters have been
playing battle-door and shuttle-cock
with the affairs of this city, and in
their struggles they would like to en-
list the assistance of the rapidly grow
ing Socialist party. acknowledging
Socialists understand such tricks, and
in SO far as they are concerned q de-
NAL Of such stories are unnecessary.
but there are many snear-Socialists
who might think there was some
truth in the article.
Parkersburg is permeated with rad
zeal Socialist sentiment and we are
within measurable distance Of cap
turing control Of the city. There need
be no fear that the slightest compro-
mise will ever be made with the mem
bers Of the old political gangs. The
movement here is clean and clean cut
and the working class well knows
that there can be nothing in commo11
between them and the piratical crews
of the capitalist-controlled parties
They would not for one moment sup
port such paper as that mentioned
in the article above veferred to. For
these reasons / would like this denial
printed in your valuable paper. We
want the comrades of Wheeling and
the entire state to know that we are
carrying the red flag of International
Socialism down here in Wood county

Men Must Stand Trial Before officials
Who Were Guilty Of
Conspiracy.
NARROW ALLEGES "FRAuD,
PERJURY AND VIOLENCE"
Judge Refuses to Allow Showing q
Prejudice on part Of the
Grand Jurors.

Los Angeles, July 20.-October 10th
will mark the opening Of the trial OF
John ]. and James B. Mcnamara on a
charge of murder in. connection with
the fire and explosion in Los Angeles
Times building, which occurred Oeto-
Der /. 1910.
Inc fact that the date was not set
as early as September ] is a point in
favor of the defense as it was believed
Judge Bordwel would favor the pros
ecution. which favors an early date
in order to hold the public sentiment
which has been with them until the re-
cent exposure of the brutality in the
treatment of Mrs. Emma Mechanical
and the disclosure of the thug practice
of Burns and his brutal operatives.
The Mcnamara brothers will stand
trial in a court where the officials ef
that Institution have been parties to
the conspiracy against them. Assist
ant District Attorney Joseph w. Ford
who is taking tine lead in the case. ow-
ing to the Incompetence and inefii-
cheney of the CHEW, is accused of per-
Jury in connection with the requisi-
ton papers. William J. Burns, the
detective who worked up the case
against the men, and who will be ac-
tive in the prosecution Is under a fell
ony Indictment in Indiana, charged
with kidnapping John ]. Mcnamara.
The fact that these men should not
be permitted to conduct the prosecu-
ton was brought out strongly BY Mr..
barrow who, in his first speech IN the
trial said: "The law has been twisted
and perverted, and by perjury, fraud
and violence John ]. Mcnamara has
been brought into California where he
has been indicted on charges other
than those mentioned in the falsely acs
quired requisition and the whole tlle7
gal procedure is abhorrent to all sense
of Justice"
In his fiagellation of the district at
torneyland his assistants DarroW did
not mince words and the men who
conspired with Burns to Violate the
extradition laws were given a fore
taste of what was coming to them
when the trial should actually open
In attempting to defend his action IN
connection with the kidnapping. Ford
made the statement that the governor
of Indiana wanted the men spirited
away out of the state. This is the first
intimation that Governor Marshall
was a party to the Burns plot
Judge Walter Bordwen, who VIII
preside in the case refused to sci
aside the indictments or allow the
grand jury to be subpoenaed into the
court to show that they were not bias
ed and prejudiced against the men
and against all labor organizations
The defense declares that they have
proven that several members OF the
jury were officials or mmbers Of labol
hating organizations and that at leasl
one of the men was in the employ O
H. G. Otis at the time or for q lons
time before the gas explosion and
fire which destroyed the old dealt
trap. Hartman, barrow and the 9th
err lawyers for the defense put ths
Judge in a narrow corner and forcet
him to fill the record with error in hi
decisions in the preliminary steps.
