strike in the Colorado mines we
know nothing. That the miners are
convinced that they are in the right
is evidenced by the fact that they
have fought, many of them have
died for what they believe to be a
righteous cause. Whether right or
wrong, every American citizen has
the prerogative of forming and ex-
pressing his opinion as to these
matters. Men and women who have
given the situation study ard
thought certainly are entitled to
voice protest against the Staying
:. of American citizens. That Upton
Sinclair was arrested by an officer
of the law and incarcerated in an
American prison for no offence save
that of walking up and down Broad
way with piece of Grape around.
his arm as silent protest against
the killing of his brother men, is al
most beyond belief. That the Consti
tuition of the United States and that
of every state in the Union could be
so disregarded, that the. American
Declaration Of independence could
be forgotten, that the Bill of Rights
has passed from the memory of man.
that Runnymeade no longer stands
for anything and that the Maeua
carter rights of every man who
speaks the English lounge can be
so flagrantly violated on the streets
of an American city, that an Amer

American officer of the law because
he dared t. intervene in behalf :of
his brothers who are in distress.

OF his wife, has utilized all OF his pow
erful influence in building up a de-
Tense for his wife. The Minister OF
Finance and NJ. Calmette we're bitter
political enemies, and the venomous
attacks made upon her husband by
the paper OF which NJ. Calmette was
editor are said to have been the cause
OF Madame Cailleaux committing the
! crime. In a statement made just after
the affair, Madame Cailleaux declared
she did not intend to shoot the editor,
but TO threaten and scare him into re-
tracing some Of the more bitter ale
cations he had made against her hus-
band. 1t was for this purpose alone
she had called upon the editor in his
office that evening, she declared; but
the nearness of the man upon whom
she blamed all her fear for her hus.
bands good name and her own conse-
quent unhappiness overcame her, and
she emptied her revolver az him. The
prosecution will try to prove murder
was her intention.
