Some cndow colleges. Others build libraries.
Both educational.
preferred devote newspapers my contributions toward
on warming The people to protect themselves against the great
est most tvranna and dangerous trust this country mas ever Seeh
Especially nous and dangerous because its inner plans Were
not understood by the average citizen who seeing no g"dS
allowed the seSeing Labor Leaders y to weave Ref wen
stronger time Not one word in my entire campaign mas
been uttered against peaceful trade associations
baye only tried to defend the several million honest and a%
abiding wornn who protest against the bullying and abuse OF
those in power.
IA one seemed TO sympathize with the few thousand widows
and orphans of the men murdered while faithfully trying to earn
living under Gods permission but against the orders OF tho
Ibor Trust SO tried TO present their cause from tune 10 tne
The healthy average citizen SperaS deserving OF AZ
least some and loss put on him from strikes ana
other labor lenders tyranny reward for his Indifference
knew years ago that the plan Of this big labor trust was to
ultimately gain control over every workman clerk and empoe in
Inc O. S. inciHdng farm hands and goytrnMlen eMp0Ees
This has been partly accomplished in some localities then FOL
lowed acts which clearly show the intent
First to initiation fees sometimes up to 10000 each

Next, monthly dues Say ToooVo mohh III low" wiz" WV"
members at % cents each.
Next fines assessed for some infraction Of rules
Then the lash of the slave driver forth Orders to strike
what to buy what not to buys how to vote; when TO parade
Go show power and to contribute from the areacd pay en-
vcoe for strike benefits to other men Forced INTO eneS peS
negotiations between crooked leaders @ and crooked employers who
hire said leaders call strikes competitive Jobs TINS making the

money leaf *
One of the hardest strokes Of the lash the money forced from
members 10 defend ynaters ggers and mncrerS when caught
But honest workman who ercMnce has been driven INTO
the dare to dsobey OF these orders and he taught
a lesson through the smuggling dynamting committees
The slavery the honest American worngman ptiabc when
shop full control is obtained by the ylamcal leaders
Now the plan Of this govern men and affairs
Organize every trade Insist closed shop Then Use the
power numbers induce government officials to permit organizing
All Government employees some Of the oats defining the
rules shall ''precedc Church. State and Family
Then force Congressman pass aninjnnrton laws to prevent
from stopping proposed ottlageS.
Force merchants hire only union clerks and sell only la
bel goods Use union funds support smuggling and dymmng
drive back the protesting ones or remove them
Of course carrying out the plan for complete control by the
gang, were caught
Whenever openly exposed the higher up Immediately
begin to assess members protect the criminals and always rush
into nn wifi loud cries aud much mock sentiment about the
brotherhood man and the defense of the wage worker with
such play upon the sympathy Of the pcopehey cover their own
greed for fees and insane desire to read their nane the papers
II would be hard convince the widows OF the twentyone
murdered the Los Angeles tragedy and hundreds OF others
than their husbands received much benefit from nc defense Of the
wage worker could they well understand such working OF that
particular brand of the brotherhood of man scheme
Late have stripped the lambs coat from the body of the
wolf and shown clearly the lying deceit and horrible porte
underneath which have tried time and again to explain to the
public
Men who preferred support their families have been
wayad Fingers chopped Off with the comforting assurance that
You type you will Grow bars and heavy weights
dropped heads Fathers beaten unconscious and many times
crippled for life little homes bown and many and many corpse
brought to the destitute family.
These occasional eases. uch crimes run literally
into the thousands and Judges and eS have been threatened with
death bbed and witnesses sUgged put out of the way
In the pending the witnesses must be
guarded from of the Labor Trust with its tenacles
reaching the most remote corners Of our country
Don't permit Yourself I've msed by the yaporings of seni-
mental oong egcncatcS who assert that these murders are Just
flied because society has oppressed worlingmen
In other country in the world they paid as high and as
much effort devoted to their welfare Nor is there as abunant
opportunity in other country in the world for worEmen to gain
fortunes
Our great railroads, and industries largely headed by former
wage cHrners. -

evidence who hate They cooy and cruelty plan and exc
