Geiger Buys His
Shoes AT Locke's

Charles H. Geiger, city Auditor,
bought pair of shoes at Loe&e's shoe
store Saturday night, in spite of the
fact that the place was Jpicketed by
union men with cards announcing that
the Locke stores are unfair to union
labor
1t seems that Geiger, elected to his
Office by the votes of union men, has
now reached the point where he does
not need their votes any longer, and
can show his contempt for them.

The guards at the Pope Steubenyille
mill have become quite lawless In
fact, they are desperate. Friday
"Sprattie,p the chief "bun' realizing
that he had to-do something to hold
to his despicable job, sailed out from
the mill with twenty armed bulls
behind him, carrying long rifles, and
facing the pickets, and spectators on
the public streets, threatened to click
any one of them"
Practically every man in the crowd
offered to take. him UP, if he would
step out in the open without his gun,
and fight like man, but that manhood
was no part of his makeup was
proven by his next action, if not by
the way he gets his pork chops, for he
hit and cuffed fifteen year old boy
who happened to be standing near.
He was later arrested and held be-
fore Squire Lawlor on the charge OF
