bears the official marks, as does the
Fort Madison-Ke road through

made official.
There was dispute as to which
Fort Madison-West Point road should

designating the middle road, though

PARKER ARGUES CASE
OF LABOR LEADERS
Saws UttNanCeS Were Meant
to influence Congress.

Washington, Jan. S.-Alton B. Par
ker began the defense before the SUI
prer1e court of Samuel Gonlpers, John
Mitchell and Frank Morrison against
charges of contempt of court, of which
the labor leaders were convicted in
the courts of the District of Columbia.
Gcmpers, the only che Of the defend
ants present, sat with his wife
throughout the argument.
NJ. Parker presented tie case from
an angle entirely different from that
submitted when the original appeal
was argued in 1911. He said that the
utterances which have been made the
basis for the contempt proceedings
were not designed to violate the Dis
trict supreme courts boycott injunc-
ton issued in favor of the Bucks
Stove and Range company.
He said they were a part of the
campaign to induce congress to rem
edy threatened danger resulting from
the supreme courts decision in the
Danbury hatters' case, in which it
was held that the Sherman antitrust
law applied to labor organizations:
Labor appreciated then, he added.
what the public has learned only late
ly, that the National Association of
Manufacturers was engaged in a great
fight at that time to wipe labor or
CARNATIONS out Of eAistvilce.
The District supreme court held the
labor men guilty of contempt for al
legged violation Of its injunction not
to boycott the Bucks Stove and Range
company of St. Louis. Gompers was
sentenced to Jail for one year, Mitchell
for nine months and Morrison for six
months. The United States supreme
court set the sentences aside in 1911
because the court had treated the
contempt as part of the Injunction
proceedings.

FUNDS

AS the drawing Of checks on banks
when there are no FUNDS is quite fire.
quent, happening especially among
some of our younger population, the
following taken from Wheelock s
Weekly should be of intcrest:-E. A.
Nelson of Hallock, former state ibrar
ian, drew check last summer on his
home bank when there were no funds
The First State bank Of Fergus Falls
cashcd it after it was endorsed by
j. T. Johnson. Mr.. Nelson supposed
he had money i'll the bank, SO he ex-
planned, but his brother had checked
it out. Under the state law the act
Of giving checks without funds is a
misdemeanor. County Attorney Thomp-
son was notified, and the case came
before the grand jury, which found an
indictment. The accused, by his at
torney, plead guilty, and Judge Par
sons imposed fine Of $3.50, which Mr..
Nelson s relatives have paid. He made
good OH the discredited check last
