-Four leading clothing manufacturing
contractors. Max Orenstein. Max Weis-
berg, Louis Weinstein and Abraham
Fielkoff, are in the Tombs, New York,
committed without bail by Coroner Fem
berg, charged with having instigated the
murder of Abraham Steinberg, business
agent of the Button Hole Workers
union. The coroner claims complete
case against the men, all OF whom are
clothing contractors. through the confes-
sion of Harry Wagner, who admits the
staying.
Detained as the go-between in the case
is Annabella Fielkoff young and pretty
daughter OF Abraham Fielkoff. It is al
legged by Wagner that she carried mes
sages from her father and his associates
demanding that he blackjack and beat
up Steinberg because he was too active
in enforcing the strike rule, and later to
the Jail, promising him support.
Attorneys for the accused contractors,
Samuel S. Koening and Bernard Sander.
declared that the Wagner confession
was part of a conspiracy to force the
clothing manufacturers, who have not
accedeu TO the union demands, to give
in. They said they would obtain the re-
lease of their clients by habeas corpus
proceedings.
The charge that these men instigated
ranks of the clothing makers unions and
it was stated that efforts would be made
to secure confirmation of the Wagner
confession Wagner told Assistant Dis
trict Attorney Breckenridge, in charge
OF the prosecution. that all he had re
ceived for this human life was $40. He
said that when the matter of doing up
Steinberg was first broached. Fielkon
furnished him with the blackjack.
Wagner claims that he weakened and
that Fielkof sent his daughter to tell
him that if he carried out his part he
would be well paid and need have no
worry as to the outcome.
According to Wagner, an offer of $500
was made if he would kill Steinberg
Wesberg gave him $40, he said. and he
told him to purchase a revolver and
cartridges. Then he was instructed to
go to union headquarters. kill Steinberg
and surrender to the police. declaring
that the union officials had told him he
need not worry about earning money, as
he could send a bride of few weeks
out on the streets.
To force him to the deed. Wagner
swears, the contractors told him that if
he failed this time they would have him
arrested, charged with forging checks,
and would see that he received long
term.
After his arrest. he swears, Annabella
Fielkoff told him, according to his story,
that he was to have the best of counsel.
''She told me that no jury would take
the word of the labor unionists against
mine when it was backed up by the wit
nesses they intended getting me-" says
Wagner in his confession.

MINERS GIVE MITCHELL BIG VOTE.

The recent miners referendum cleo
ton of officers would indicate that John
Mitchell wakes fat on abuse The cleo
tion results also plainly tell us why the
ex-president is no longer the target for
those who have painted him as an enemy
of his fellows who again most emphatic
ally declare that Mitchell suits Them
and they pay no attention to noise. Out
side of Gompers. probably no trade
unionist was ever hammered harder than
Mitchell and the abuse and vilification
heaped on him would drive many men
out of the labor movement But Mitchell
happens to know the system. Ever
since Mitchell has been attacked the
miners have shown they are wise to this
system, and at each referendum election
Mitchell gets the top vote.
Last week the official result of the
Miners election was published. Mitchell
was a candidate, together with twenty
others, for A. F. of l.. delegate. Several
were to be chosen, and the vote of the
| winners is President White, 122,028;
John Mitchell, 112,440: Vice President
Frank Hayes, 1O4.353: John II. Walker,
| 81, 1888: VIM. Green, S5,176; Duncan Nc
Donald, S1,502 Adolph Germer, 62, ,403.
In view of this repeated demonstration
Of trade union loyalty by his fellows,
Mitchell can well afford to laugh at the
mud battery manipulators, who are Of
late maintaining a discreet silence
against man the rank and file refuses
to desert.-Toledo Union Leader.

MAKING BoycoTTs EFFECTIVE.

For the first time in the history of the
labor strike in the West and the second
time in the United States, p picket line
of striking working men and women has
paraded in front of the place upon which
they have declared strike, carrying
banners, singing songs, and shouting
Unfair house"
The strike has been declared upon
the Hyman & Frank shoe factory at San
Francisco by the Boot and Shoe Work
ers union because the union claims that
the manufacturers cut the workers earn
ings below living wage.
Every night at quitting time the eighty
striking men and women employees pa
rade in picket line before the factory
holding hands and singing. forcing the
strike ebreakers to run the gauntlet
through this line to the automobiles that
take them to their lodgings.
The proprietors stand in the doorway
of their factory and look on.
A squad of policemen is scattered
about and look on
crowd of several hundred spectators
gather across the street and look on.
1t is all very interesting-and very
orderly.
AS the line passes the owners, the
strikers sing:
''Oh, like my boss
He's a good friend of mine;
That's why | am starving
Out in the bread-line."
Each striker carries symbol of the
union on placard and several standard
bearers carry notices and slogans let
tered on huge signs.
1le one that leads the procession
reads:
The boss says no girl can live on five
dollars week and be decent. The
company pays five dollars.
After the strke-breakers have ar
rived at their respective homes the
pic ct line goes to their houses and pa
rades up and down in front, singing and
shouting: Unfair to organized labor
Generally they don't come back, -
said T. w Hooper, who is leading the
strike. "and the manufacturers have to
look for new strike-breakers."

Trotting Horses in America.

The Standard Bred horse ranks
next to the Percheron in point of
numbers in the breeding operations
of the state. According to the annual
circular of information of the de.
partment Of Horse breeding of the
College of Agriculture Of the Uni
versity of Wisconsin. there are 1922
enrolled Standard bred trotting and
pacing stations in Wisconsin and
there are also 131 grade stations of
this type. Of these stations 50
standard bred and Is grade trotters
were added in 1913.
Grant county leads with 20 Stand
ard bred enrolled stations. Iowa
and Richland counties have Is each.
Brown has Is, Milwaukee and st.
Croix counties II each and Walworth
10. The remaining stalllions of the
light breeds are quite evenly distrib,
uted over the other counties in the
south and central sections of the state.
Owners of Standard Bred and grade
tIotting and pacing stations will be
interested to learn that the amended
stallion law now requires all enroll
ment certificates to be renewed once a.
year. All stallion enrolment certi-
ficates now expire January first of
each year and have to be renewed be-
fore the first day Of April following.
The fee for renewal Of certificate is
fifty cents.
Another interesting amendment and
one that should benefit the horse
breeding industry provides that all
stations previously certified to as
sound by owners affidavits must be
examined and certified to by legally
qualified veterinarians to entitle them
to a renewal of enrolment certificates.
The grade trotting sire is properly be-
ing relegated to the background in
Wisconsin and it is hoped that in
time only standard bred sires will
be used True progress can be made
only in that way.

Trees Along the Highways.

The New York state highway COM
mission, which has charge of the ex-
tensive system of road-bui lding that
has been in progress for several years,
recently bought 100. 600 red oak seed
lings and Is, 900 white birch trees for
planting along the roads. It is the
intention of the commission to plant
every road in the state eventually.
The trees will not only add to the
beauty of the highways. but they will
lessen the destructive effect of storms
and provide a source of timber supply
that may in time become important.
What New York is doing should be
done in every state as a part of the
good roads work now so extensively
planned and under construction.
Almost every road has a wide enough
right of way to permit of fringe of
trees. Those who have travelled in
England. in France and Germany
know that it is common to use the
sides of the highways for this
purpose, with results that are both
charming and useful.
Here in old Grant county it should
be made part of the work of our
road commissioners to see that suit
able varieties Of shade trees are
planted along the highways, and the
writer believes it to be only a ques
tion of short time before the state
Legislatures of this and other states
will follow the example of New York
by adopting measures to promote this
important work. There is hardly a
locality cannot be had at a low cost,
and with proper selection of trees
good results could be had in a few
years.
