concept of our institutions every man
charged with crime is assumed to be

Namara, secretary-treasurer of the
Iron Workers, together with his
brother, and their spifiting away by
detectives to Los Angeles, without
having been given an opportunity to
consult counsel, or defend themselves
even in the most remote way, With
apparent studied and pre-arranged
manner the columns of the daily press
have been carrying an unusual
amount Of lurid and sensational
statements of what is alleged to have
occurred, and predicting even worse.
From these incidents, indications
are apparent that a conspiracy is at
tempted with the end in view to des-
troy the Iron Workers and cast odium
on organized labor in general. The
sentiments permeating the news as
sumes that simply because the men
charged are connected with the activ-
tiles of union labor they must of ne
cessity be guilty of the crime charged.
has there been any effort to suggest
that it is unjust to PREJUDICE; that the
better method to be pursued would
be to await until both sides have
been heard before public decision is
rendered. To build charges against

whenever crime is committed,

gained labor asks no immunities from
the law, neither is it entitled to
