THE PRINTER s RULE. .

The Printers Rule is a handy tool
Whatever the job may be;
From eating pie to pulling tacks.
Or ripping envelopes up the backs.
And even down to cleaning cracks.
It's the Printers Rule for me.
You can drive screw or cut a
Chew r~
Yod can white, Or pick. OF dig,
You can spread your bread, or clean
a fish,
Or scrape the sides Of chatting dilh;
Or do most anything man could
wish,
With this little "jig-ma-ris::'
The familiar click Of :: the rule and

In my heart is reserved tender phase
For my friend Of former years
And on Judgment morn. when
Gabriel's horn
Sounds through the Promised Land,
The Printerman won't have to welt,
For I'm sure he will not hesitate
To try to open the Pearly Gate.
If he has his rule IN, hand.

! WHEN LINCOLN SOLD
/ WHIsKEY TO DOUGLAS

u ~ y Is. i + T.
It was my good fortune to be pre-
sent at Quincy. ILL.,, in October, 1858.
on the occasion of the joint debate
between Lincoln and Douglas, accu-
plying seat on the platform only
few feet from the speakers.
In the course of Judge pauglas' adj
dress he had occasion to refer to Mr..
Lincoln's early experiences and UNI
favorable circumstances in which he
was surrounded, and, without any Of
fensiveness of manner. remarked that
he would well remember in those
days that Mr.. Lincoln was busy sell
ling liquor over the counter in a lit
tie town in Southern Illinois. I
noticed Mr.. Lincoln smiled and made
notation on the small card that
he had in his hand.
In the course of his reply Mr.. Lin
coin said: my friend, Judge Douglas,
has seen proper to call attention to
the fact that many years ago had
sold liquor over the counter. And
did; sure, did But I can assure
you that while I was busy on one
side of the counter my friend, Judge
Douglas, was equally busy on the
| other" -
Mr.. Lincoln's counter thrust, ac-
companied by his wonderful facial
expression, caught the immense
| throng, and roars OF laughter, in
| which Judge Douglas joined and loud
applause followed for several min
! utes.
So know that Mr.. Lincoln in his
| very young days did sell liquor over
! the counter, and all grocers and their
| clerks did. I know it because
heard him say, "sure, I did:''-A. G.

SUPREME COURT DUCKS ISSUE.

SUPREME COURT DUCKS ISSUE. f##
The supreme court Of the United States set aside
the sentences imposed by Justice Wright the District
OF Columbia upon Samuel Gompers. John Mitchell and
Frank Morrison for contempt of court in alleged viola
ton of injunctons in 1907 1908 against pub
shing the Bucks Stove and Range companys name in
the Eve Don't Patroaze List Of the American Fedora
tton Of Labor.
The supreme court did not meet the issue presented
BY the attorneys Of the American Federation of Labor
but disposed of the by holding that prosecution
was barred by the statute of limitation the latter
ceedinss having been started than three years
after the alleged onenses. While Gompers. Morrison
and Mitchell free from serving terms JAIL they
owe their freedom not much to the splendid fight
they made but rather to the side-sepping decision
Americas highest court. .
The supreme court has settled the great prin-
ciple involved in the contest which organized
labor expended vast of money to determine. It
was contended by the American Federation of Labor
that the injunction unlawful in that it sought
enjoin Messrs Gompers Mitchell and Morrison from
doing perfectly legal acts; deprive
ful and constitutional rights Behind it involved
freedom of speech and of the press guaranteed by
Federal constitution If Justice Wrights decision had
been upheld 1T would ultimately lead general
ship Of speech and press. 80.
Judge James B. Mcclure. in commenting on the
Wright decision said: If court by injunction
otherwise determine In advance what subjects may
may not be discussed. what may not be said
in labor paper, why it like manner abridge
the freedom OF all other publications."
The evidence upon which the officers of the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor convicted gathered by
the three attorneys in Washington representing
lively, the American AntBoycott association, the Ma
ttonal Association of Manufacturers the National
Association for Industrial Defense all anttabor union
organizations. They examined Witnesses adduced evil
dence and reported to the that defendants
were guilty of contempt Justice Wright acted upon
their recommendation and sentenced each of the men
to serve term in jail.
There should be no place in American jurisprudence
for such proceedings. They belong an age in the
long ago past If the highest court in the land will
not lay down rules to limit the usurpng power the
federal courts in equity proceedings by the
binary rights of citizens denied, then workingmen
should not be for going before
demanding that the OF the equity courts de-
fined by law. Indeed is labors duty to make such
demand of Congress.
Labor did not get what it expected from the su-
preme court 1t ducked the real ISSUE
1t will have salutary effect Under judges will take
the hint. They will be careful, for time at
least or until some issue up. Justice Wright
may not be In position to do much mischief His
Official conduct Is being investigated by the house

A CONSPIRACY OF THE RICH.

orders in Ulster resigned, they invited to
turn to the service by the king Tom Mann, the
dcalist, asked the privates in the during big
strike disobey orders and not shot the strikers and
he given six months in JAIL These incidents caused
the labor members of parliament to ask if there was
law in England for the rich and another for
the poor
In America we have parallel case. j. J. Mcnamara,
secretary of labor unon entered into conspiracy
with blow up structural work being erected
by nonunon employers. He went along for time with
being until his criminal work resulted in
murder at Los Angeles. The act traced to his Of

him and he was sent to prison.
But criminal proceedings did not stop with the i'm
prisonment of the McNamaras. Every person who had
