isn't an American citizen is lucky
for he can get protection through his

Uncle Sam has to protect the rights
of foreigners even if he won't pro-
tect the rights of American citizens.
The Austrian government is about
to step in and protect some of her
citizens who have been forced to
work in the copper mines against
their will.
BY the way, what is government
for?
1t appears that the copper barons
of Massachusetts can do as they
daTned please in Michigan.
And all either state or national
government appears to be able to do
is to plead with them.
What they need is swift kick!
Why not grant the miners beIIiger-
ent rights, let them have guns and
fight it out with the imported gun
men?
States Attorney Hoyne evidently
doesn't suit the trust newspapers.
If he can keep the trust press down
on him and refuse to be bossed by
