untenanted and simply served as a
storehouse for frewood and for garden

mousse, dlgnited even In Its splendid
ruin.
Smoke was curling upward from a
tottering chimney Expecting to find
some good natured nanny within,
presiding over the frying bacon whose
redolence assailed his nostrils. Scott
thrust his head among the vines that
half covered the open window.
Quickly spoken words, uttered in the
contralto voice Of his huntress Of the
woods, fell on his ears before he real
lied that he was an eavesdropper, and
he withdrew and hastened around to

ton thought this that and the other
all over and then delivered them
selves of learned opinions on all sides,
including the top, bottom, inside and
outside
Filled to the muzzIe with legal lore,
with authority, precedent, evidence,
argument and deep thought, the
learned and very reverend judges are
now letting the whole mess stew, fer
ment and digest.
In the meantime the mattresses are |
patiently waiting, and the employers
are taking life easy and not caring a |
darn whether any decision ever
comes or not; for they are just as |
well off, and possibly better off, with |
no decision as with one.
l don't know much about law, and |
don't think anybody else does, for
that matter; but to a plain, simple
minded citizen, it looks to me as if all
the law in that Case could have been
decided by one Judge long ago.
Here's one authority the lawyers
didn't quote We quote from Judge
Scully of Chicago, Illinois, United
States of America, who handed down
an opinion right off the bat when he
discharged Ben Gelpern and Barnett
Berman, who were arrested for pick
citing in front of Conrad B. Shane's
tailoring establishment.
Judge Scully said: These men
should never have been brought IN
here. The law specifically states that
peaceful picketing is legal and no
one can be allowed to interfere with
the rights of pickets who keep the
peace" g
Will the learned judges kindly ac-
commodate an anxious public and tell
us what the law is?

would run the Office in the interest of
the newspaper bosses just as others
before him had done
The time came however, when The
Tribune opened up on Hoyne; and
that gave me the bunch that there
was at least one newspaper that
couldn't boss him. ...
Because of his political connection
with the Reconsideration faction of
the Democratic party, didn't believe
he would ever bring the Hearst gun
men to trial for the murder of Con-
ductor Witt.
Besides that, knew that all of the
trust newspapers were together in
hiring sluggers during the pressmen's
lockout; and that the trial of the muir
derers OF, Witt would be as distasteful
to the others as to Hearst.
AS mere matter of justice, l now
call attention to the fact that States
Attorney Hoyne has brought them
to trial; and to the additional fact
that he is the first states attorney in
many years who hasn't been afraid of
the trust press.
That kind of fearlessness may wind
Hoyne up politically, provided Chi
cago voters keep on taking their po-
litical tips from the newspapers, but
it will cause a whole lot of honest
people to change their minds about
him and to respect him for his cour-
age. " .
l am glad to find that was mis-
taken in Hoyne.
