PRISON SENTENCES
FOR LABOR LEADERS

Indianapolis, Dee, 30.--Imprison-
ment in the federal prison at Leay-
Eenworth, Kansas, today was imposed
as punishment upon thlrty-three la
bor union officials convicted of hay
ing engaged in the destruction o.
property by dynamite over an area
stretching from Boston to Los An
geles
AS the head of the union, whose
strike was given as the motive for
promoting the dynamite plots, rFanA
M. Ryan was sentenced to seven
years Imprisonment, the heaviest
sentence of all. He Is the president
of the iron workers international
union.
OF the thirty-eight men convicted
'as conspirators and aiders in the Nc
Namara dynamiting schemes, eignt
other men, all affiliated with Ryan,
each were given prison terms of six
years. Two men each were given
four years, twelve men each were
given three years, four men each
were given one year and one day and
six men, including Edward Clark,
Cincinnati, dynamiter who pleaded
guilty, were allowed their liberty on
suspended sentences.
The elimination OF those who re-
eeiVed suspended sentences left thir-
ty-three who are to go to Leayen-
worth, where the shortest sentence
will be one year and one day.

Kline, former official of the earpen-
ters union; Alaf A. Tveitmore, OF
San Francisco, remained as the only
labor union official among the pris-
oners not related with the iron work
ers' union. But II was Tveitmore
who was charged by the government
>aith having connived with President
Ryan and Mcnamara for the destrue-
tion Of life and property on the Pa
cidc coast. II was Tveltmore who
again and again was referred to by
the government before the jury as
a murderer who ought to be in San
Quentin prison along with the Me-

BROOM CORN SITUATION

Just where the main trouble lies,
il is impossible for us to say, but the
broomcoln market here Is in most
deplorable condition, and il there is
any way possible something should
be done to relieve the situation. The
buyers are paying from $40 to $50 a
ton and are not overly anxious to
buy at that price.
Through the eastern and central
port, of the state, farmers are
receiving much aid in selling and
buying grain through the state agri-
cultural college, but we can not con
ceive plan whereby they could ma
terially help in selling broom corn,
since it is necessary for it to 60
before being offered to the consumer
One OF the Liberal Kansas, pa
pers reports an instance where a man
nauled his crop of broom corn to
that market, and on the way was
planning what he would buy to
make the little ones at home happy
at Christmas time, but the price Of
rered was so triling that he dumped
the brush in the street and set lire
it-a foolish thing to do, With
Justice to themselves and their fel.
low men, we believe it would be. bet
ter for buyers, farmers and mer.
chants. If they would absolutely re-
tuse to buy single bale of brooom
corn short of $75 or $50 a ton. The
buyer is perhaps unjustly heapng
curses upon himself, beside in a di-
rect way, he is helping short change
the merchant as well as the farmer
and more and more farmers are be
ing forced to go elsewhere to grow
other crops which sell on a more
stable market, rendering still greater
damage to the home merchant anC
the country in general. The only
remedy in sight as we see it, is t.
pile the brush away at home and pos
itiyely refuse to sell below prof
liable price, which would require {
concerted move on the part of th'
farmers az given time.
OF all the high protective tariff

is perhaps the least protected Tn,

1t is said that to spoil COW, yell
at her and pound her with the milk
ing stool; and the way to spoil a
wife is to frown and scowl at her and
never give her a cent of money.
From the above, one would sur
mise that a wife was more easily
spoiled than a COW; for, could not a
man spoil wife by yelling at her
and pounding her with the milking
stool. But--he could never spoil the
COW by merely scowling at her and
refusing to give her a cent OF money.
