CALUMET IN MINIATURE?


Editor of The Day Book:
Have we another Calumet in modi-
fed form here in Chicago? Recent
events connected with the Progress
sive Cigar Makers Union strike
against the Wohl & Comstock firm
at 1856 Madison street, seem to in
dictate just such condition.
The only difference seems to be
that it is necessary for the firm to
hire gunner, as the regular police
are seemingly anxious to show the
bosses that they are ready and will
ing to beat up and otherwise show
the strikers that they don't intend
to allow the workers the slightest
chance to better their condition, if
it is possible for the police to pre-
vent it. .-.. ....
The limit has been reached in
usurped authority now that the po-
lice have, to all practical effect, made
state of martial law governing the
two blocks from Sheldon to Ogden
avenue, on Madison street. On
Wednesday, Dec. "a, just as every
one had a feeling of Peace on Earth
and Good viii to Men, the police
demonstrated their adherence to this
spirit by arresting two young men
at the point of drawn revolvers for
picketing the strike-bound shop.
They were acting under direct Or
ders of Peter Wohl and who now
seems to have police powers of
commanding officer.
This is very significant as Mr..
Wohl has for years posed as an an
archist and has preached Workers of
the World Revolt. When his en-
ployes contracted this by following
the Socialist principles-Workers of
the World Unite the great fire
eating Mr.. Wohl Immediately showed
that his veneer of radicalism was
very thin and that he is capitalist

sage from the Governor dealing witt
the report of the specai committee
appointed to investigate his charges
in regard to the distribution of the
Peabody educational fund was stir,
ring up the waters of wrath.
When the message was first re-
ceived in the House, Mr. Evans, a
member of the majority of the COM
mittee which had submitted the re-
port exonerating DR. Mitchell, spoke
freely in regard to the message. He
resented the Governors criticism of
the report and finally moved that it
be referred to the committee on Ed
ucation. Mr. Ashley moved that it
he printed in the journal. This was
the time that the point of no quorum
was raised and the House was fore
ed TO adjourn.
The next day the question came
up again. Then, after some discus
sion, Mr. Evans, voicing his belief
that the Governors charges did not
amount to much. being unsupported
by any proof. withdrew his motion
to refer the message to the commit
tee on Education.
Then, latter some speeches on points
of personal privilege, and the adop-
ton of resolutions of praise for the
officials of the House, the lower branch
of the General Assembly adjourned,
sine die.
Meanwhile, the Senate had gone
through very much the same pro-
cedure. The Governors message on
the Peabody report had aroused the
same criticism there. This criticism
found voice in a resolution by Mr.
Crouch expressing confidence in the
Legislative committee which investi-
gated the Peabody matter and trust
in the integrity of its findings. This
resolution was blocked by objection

was the object of the reconvenng IT

When the House convened Thurs
day at 2 O'Clock Representative Mil
Ter of Richland did the unexpected
by raising the point of no quorum.
Sure enough, the quorum was lack

acted. Ins,~aj, steps were taken to
bring the derelict members into
line. kilograms weae sent out over
the State and the delinquents were
instructed to report. The result was
that when the General Assembly met
again the next day, the desired quo
rum was present. Then there was
nothing to do but to adjourn, the
business of the meeting having been
automatically dispatched. The meet
ing, however, was enlivened, even to
the point of asperity, by some tart re-
ferences to a letter written bv Sen
ator John L McLsurin and by mes
sage from the Governor which pro-
voked some acrimonious discussion.
Senator McLaurin's letter, written
to HsiEey Jordan of Georgia, had
made reference to the Legislature
in terms none too complimentary and
some Of them resented it. The re-
suit was q short, sharp discussion OF
the Senator's references, including a
mention of "Hearst's Magazine"
the allusion being to the Archbold
letters. read by William R Hearst
during the campaign of 1903. In
one of these Mr. McLaurin was quot
ed as saying that a little more aid
from the powers that be would result
in the defeat of Senator Tllman.
