cent strike of the textile workers of
Lawrence, Mass. .~.....
The arrest and imprisonment of
these two working men is one of the
most lawless and infamous acts ever
committed by the ruling class of this
country. At the time of the brutal
murder of Anna La Pizza, Ettor and
Giovannitti were leading the Lawrence
strike. They were straining every
nerve to preserve and not to destroy
the lives Of the strikers. =
It is a notorious fact that Anna La
Pizza was wantonly shot to death, by
one of the police officers and that
Ettor and Giovannitti were miles
away from the scene of the murder.
They were arrested and imprisoned
for the sole purpose of weakening the
position of the strikers and forcing
their surrender to the brutal mill own
es of Lawrence. ,- ...
1t is not charged that Ettor and
Giovannitti were directly concerned
with the killing Of Anna La Pizza or
that they instigated or aided in the
dastardly deed. The theory upon
which the indictment is based is that
the strike leaders made inflammatory
speeches which led to a violent con-
fiict resulting in the death Of the un-
fortunate mill girl.
If this theory is allowed to stand
and to acquire the force of legal pre-
cedent it will be the heaviest blow
dealt by the courts of this country to
the right and liberties of the citizens.

strike and every Socialist arraigning

THE DANGEROUS POWER ITO
WIN OVER"

1t was this purpose, ito win over" !,
with such success, under conditions
favorable, that made Ettor dangerous
to; nillowning interests. His arrest
and imprisonment was necessary to
their triumph. They accordingly laid
plans ITO get him" as their detectives
had threatened to do the very day he
set foot in Lawrence. Attempts were
made to connect him with the dynam-
tie plots. This highly dangerous explo-
sive was planted in localities where
it's accidental explosion would have
caused great loss of life. The planter
was local politician named Breen
who has since been protected by clubs
in which mill agents are conspicuous.
The killing of Annie La Pizza by
policeman Benoit, was the mill owners
opportunity. AS Childs, the writer, al
ready quoted, well puts IT,
Gas leader, Ettor has been the
conspicuous success. Where did he
go? To the lawrence Jail with bail
denied him. The case against him is
that he melted violence by his
speeches, which resulted in the death
of an Italian woman by stray bullet
in a street fracas at which he was
not present. Ergo he is charged with
being an accessory to a murder
Regarding this charge, the same
writer observes: I'm the minds of the
ordinary patriotic American there
must be large question about a law

lied Service OF v. s. inspectors
to Put Her Dairy Farm
Out of Existence.

Washington. May IL. - Mrs. Scott
Durand of Chicago filed statement
with Representative Nelson of Wis

ton into the relations of the Meat
packers and certain officials OF the
agriculture department, in which she
charges Arthur Meeker. general
manager of Armour & Co. Of Chicago
of utilizing the meat inspection serv-
ice Of the United States in an effort
to put her famous Crabtree dairy
farm out of business because he con-
sidered her as rival. Both Mrs.
Durand and Mr.. Meeker are prominent
In Chicago social and club circles and
the filing OF Mrs Durand's statement
caused decided sensation IN Wash
ington officialdom.
In addition the statement OF Mrs.
Durand shows how, by her woman's
wit, she trapped the government meat
inspectors alleged to have been sent
by Meeker to condemn her held
and how they actually inspected
and passed for Armour G. Co.'S
warehouses cows which they mad
condemned as tuberculous on her
farm. So important Is the testimony
offered by Mrs. Durand that she has
been summoned as witness.

MUST GIVE FULL WEIGHTS
Nc More Allowance for Shrinkage in
Cheese, Orders Government
Wisconsin Is Affected.

Madison.-Wisconsi cheese max
ers are materially affected by an or
der issued by the national board Of
dairy and food inspectors in Wash
ington forbidding the underweigh-
ing or overwhelming of cheese to al
low for alleged shrinkage. 1t is de-
clared that cheese does not shrink to
any great extent after shipment from
the factories and that this reported
overmarking is unjustifed. Dealers
say that the practice is simply CIV
ing of short measure to the consum-
ers and is typical instance of re-
ported short weight and measures
system that is responsible, in part at
least, for the present high cost Of
living.

COACH RICHARDS RESIGNS
Refusal of University Faculty to Ex-
cuse Athletes from Military Drill
Is Given as the Reason.

Madison. the action of
the University of Wisconsin faculty
in forcing athletes to take military
drill to the exclusion of athletics,
John r. Richards, head coach of the
Wisconsin baseball and football
teams, has severed his connection
with the university.
That the faculty action in refus-
ing to excuse athletes from military
drill makes it absolutely impossible
to place competitive athletics on an
efficient basis at the university is the
reason Coach Richards gives for his
action.
The resignation will take effect
on Aug. 2, when Coach Richards
present contract expires.
