Admission Is and 25 cents. Adult

Just what connection the editors
of the Anoka Union are about to es-
tablish between being happy the
rest of ones life in the midst of such
denunciation and bigotry as has
manifested itself in Anoka f,cm
time to time is quite beyond our ken.
The supposed connection between an
invitation to come to Anoka and vile,
premeditated insults against the
Catholic Church, which seem to be
the order of the day in that COM
munity, leads us to believe that GER
tain classes in Anoka have very lit
tie understanding of the eternal fit
ness of things. Anoka received some
considerable advertising, we will not
say complimentary, in connection
with a former escapade in which the
Catholic Church, its priesthood, and
nuns. were the subject for the spleen
of the lecturer. When some timer
ant degenerate wishes an audience

an audience of fair minded right.
thinking people all that is necessary
for him to do is to announce that
some time or another, somewhere or
another he vaguely imagined that he
had studied for the Catholic priest
hood. With such credentials in his
pocket, hatred in his heart, and an
eye open to the guillibility of GER
tain classes of citizens of Anoka, he
starts out to that fertile spot of big
otry and intolerance. He is sure to
find welcome in Anoka.
All this comes with making your
home in Anoka. Such is the atmos-
phere to which the Anoka County
Union welcomes the stranger within
her gates and asks them to establish
homes where they and their chill
dren are to inhale in Anoka atmos-
phere the germs of religious ran
cor. where they can learn that you
are to be happy in Anoka by being
at odds with your fellowmen. Such
is happiness in Anoka and such are
the glorious prospects for happy
life in a community where the de-
cent element is embarrassed because
Anoka has, of late, become syno-
nym for bigotry and an example of
how miserable people can really be-
come when their religion consists in
hating the belief of others rather
than practicing the religious tenets
of their own church.

his purpose in coming to Greenville
was to sell medicine, but seeing that
there was a good chance to make
some money by "mud-slinging," he
took on the role of the ex-priest. He
said in lecture at Highland that he
was no priest, but went as far as the
third degree to the priesthood"

seminary did you study?" Hatfield
could not reply. "Who was the Bishop
who ordained you?" No reply. He
asked some more questions, but there
was no response, and the questioner
concluded by calling him before the
whole audience "a low, vile. slippery
liar" This practically broke up the
meeting.
He said in Highland, ILL.,, In one of
his lectures that the X. of c. was
founded in the fifteenth century. He
named Catholic home in New Jersey
where he was brought up and lived for
twenty-five years. The house he men,

tiate for Sisters. The latter report is
that the fellow is an Anarchist. He

MASSACHUSETTS THE LEADER
OF STATES IN LABOR
LEGISLATION,

Governor Walsh, whose friendliness
towards organized labor and the rights
of the laborer has been shown on many
occasions, now leads his state to an
advanced position by the signing of
the anti-injunction bill, recently passed
by the Massachusetts legislature. 1t
is thus the first legislation to declare
there are no property rights in a
workers labor power. The following
are the main points of the law:
It is not unlawful for workers to
combine to raise wages, shorten hours
or better working conditions.
No Massachusetts judge can issue
an injunction in industrial disputes ex.
cept in cases where irreparable injury
to property or to property right is
threatened, and then only in cases
| where there is no adequate remedy at
law.
In construction of this act the right
to labor or to carry on business shall
be deemed personal, not a property
right.
This should dispose of the injunc.
lions in labor disputes and bring back
government by law.
It modified the judge-made law OF
conspiracy by declaring a lawful act
done by an individual is lawful when
done by collection of individuals.
This overthrows repeated decisions Of
courts which have held that an action
by a collection of individuals may be
unlawful-a conspiracy-even though
the act is lawful when done by an in
dividual.
The act restores, so far as Massa
chusetts is concerned, the sound prin'
ciple of law by declaring that the right
to do business and the right to labor
as an employee is a personal and not
a property right.
Where an employer claims to be
damaged by any act done by his EN-.
ployers he must seek redress in the

The Socialistic and the anti-Catho-
lie press throughout the country
seems unable to cease talking about
the Ferrer incident in Spain some
time ago and they hailed with en-
thusiasm what is known as the Fer

the I. w. w. bomb makers have
turned out to be product of their
schools the anti-brethren must look

FATHER o'HARA CONDEMNS BIG
INDUSTRIAL PARASITE.
-
"Mothers' Of Future Generation Shall
Not Be Sacrificed to Industrial
Gain In Oregon" Says Father
o'Hara, Chairman of the

Father O'Hara is the chairman OF
the industrial welfare commission of
the state of Oregon. This commits
sion is charged with the administra-
ton of the new law of that state for
the establishment of minimum wages
for women workers.
The spirit in which the commission
has entered it's work is shown in this
statement by Father O'Hara.
"An industry which does not pay it's
employees enough to cover their neces-
sary living is parasite on the homes
OF the poor and is subsidized by it's
employees. If any industry is so i'm.
portant to the community as to de.
serve to be sustained by subsidy.
! such subsidy should come from some
other source than its working girls"
The Oregon statute does not in itself
Fix the minimum wages. It empowers
the commission to fix them, with re-
gard to the facts and the surrounding
conditions Of each industry.
Several law suits contesting the
rules of the commission and attacking
the validity of the statute have been
decided by the trial Judge in favor of
the law and of the commissions rules
in that case.
Concerning this litigation Father
O'Hara says:
"The principle on which the act is
based is that the welfare of women
must take precedence over any com.
mercial consideration. The mothers
of the future generation should not be
sacrificed to industrial gain. This is
the first time the question has ever
been taken into the courts in this
country, but similar measures have
been in effect in Europe and Australia
for many years.
| The trial judge ruled that as "the
law regulating the number of hours Of
labor for women and minors is within
the police power and constitutional"
so "a law fixing minimum wage is
within the police power"

QUESTIONING THE ADNnNISTRA
TION.

dency has not added anything either
to the glory or popularity of the ad-
ministration and the actions of John
Lind seems to have brought a dark
cloud upon the horizon of Mexican
affairs. Correspondence indicates
that Lind gave the revolutionists pri-
vate assurance that if they shipped
their war supplies to Cuba they could
then be admitted into Mexico with
out interference but at the same
time the administration put an en-
barge upon the shipment of firearms
into Mexico. Recently resolution
was introduced calling on the Secre-
tary of State for information regard
ing Lind's authority and also a reso-
luton calling for the expenditures
made in Mr.. Lind's behalf. These
inquiries were suppressed by the adj
ministration. During all this time
when aid was given the rebels by
the administration in it's eagerness
to have the "watchful waiting pol
icy" come out successful, TRADES
were being made against the Cath
Ollie Church in Mexico in wholesale
fashion, nuns, priests and members
of religious orders were driven out
and in many instances they fell the
victims of Villas soldiers. Villa is
the man whom the administration
was supporting in the place of HUI
erta, whom Wilson claimed he coul,
not recognize. With this sort of a
history backing up Wilson's policy
in Mexico it certainly is not to be
wondered at that all sorts of de-
famatory and misleading press no.
tees flooded the country concerning
Mexico. Neither is it to be wondered
at that the Protestant Church or
ganization at their recent meetings
decided to star a wholesale mission
airy movemen in Mexico. They have
gotten their cue from the admins
tration in the same manner that
Villa got his. Just what Lind did
and what Lind did not do has not
been successfully determined other
than that he drew an ambassador
pay while he was on the job and
that he attempted to put Nelson
O'Shaughnessy Gin bad" with the ad-
ministration and secretly assisted the
rebls when he was supposed to be
sent as an impartial representative
of this government to obtain definite
information. With al these things in
their favor the Protestant Church
dignitaries have reason to think that
their missionary operations such as
there have been in Mexico and such
as there will continue to be in the
future have been given a decided
boost. The administration might az

There is nothing to protect at Santa Rosalia except the property of the Compagnle Du Boleo, with the single exception of the brea6- waters which were constructed by the government at the request of and for the benefit of that same company.
 Officials of the state and naval de- partments in Washington distinctly decline to make any statement as to whether they know the specific req son for the Rothschillds having a warship sent to guard their proper. ty. But from source close to the white house word was passed to several senators who have shown recently an active interest in the developments in Mexico, that the French company anticipates that General Villa. should he be success ful in his campaign against Torreon, will make the Boleo company an other of the large industries in northern Mexico from which to levy tribute. The more than six millions Of exports give some idea of what a rich opportunity Santa Rosalia would afford General Villa for a hold-up of the same order that he has already carried through successfully in So- nora, Chihuahua and Durango.
 French Ships May Visit East Coast.
 The same informant is responsible for the statement that the president and the state department would not be at all surprised if additional French wrahsips were sent, not to the Pacific. but to the east coast Of Mexico. This, in his opinion, was due to the fact that. while 1t has been denied in public print, it is we'll understood in official circles and in Wall street, nevertheless that the news given in New York five months ago about working com bination of the Rothschilds and Wa ters-Pierce interest was absolutely true. This would mean that the great French bankers may be as much interested in the campaign of the rebels against Tampico and its contiguous oil districts. as in the safety of their vast copper holdings in Lower California.

GOLD MINER STAKES
 HIS FAITH TO DREAM

SPOKANE, Wash, April A. Pin. ming his faith to a dream. c. Olsen, a Spokane contractor. s devoting money and time to the development of a gold mining claim near Nelson, B. C.
 John J. Malone. mayor of Nelson. came to Spokans this week bearing news of this unique mlning venture. Several years ago. he says, Olsen dreamed that he was operating a mine. He was shoveling out ore rich in the precious yellow metal. Of course he ayoke disappointed, but with details of the physical surroundings Of his dream mine firmly stamped in his memory.
 A year later Olsen went to British Columbia to inspect some timber. Near Nelson he was surprised to find a spot which coincided as to hills trees and all physical features with the surroundings of his dream mine
 Olsen forgot about the timber busi' ness and located a mining claim calling it the Dream mine.
 He sank a shaft 10 a depth Of 90 feet. In his dream he had looked down the shaft and had faintly dis cerned the glimmer of n candle mounted on a shovel Olsen estimates that the greatest depth at which one would be able to see such a light is about 100 feet. and he has now de cided to sink the shaft further. in the belief that he will open up the vein.
 ! "The prospect is not too promising but l never laugh at any ideas of a man who is mining Gold you know is where you find it." said Mayor Ma lone in concluding the story of Olsen's dream mining.

how similar fires might be prevented and the danger from them minimized.
 The following changes in mining practices are recommended to reduce the number of fires in metal mines and loss of life and property from such fires:
 Substitute oil. carbide. or electric lights for candles;
 Install mechanical fans for the pur' pose of regulating the air current in case of fire;
 Install fireproof shaft stations;
 Use wire-rope signal on electric system instead of hemp rope.
 Use of Electricity
 Greater care Is constantly being ex- ercised in erecting electrical appara- tus and in using electricity Although metal mines are not liable to dust explosions, as are coal mines, yet they are often very damp or wet, a ground" is easily caused, and there is great danger of injury or death from shock from circuits of low press ure, pressure as low as 220 'vots hay. ing frequently caused fatal shocks, hence there is need of special safe guards in places where mines are wet or there is little head room.
