school Election Last Monday.

Our school election last Monday
was a very tame affair, compared to
some previous contests in this city
the one held in this city five years
ago, for instance. when Mr.. Phillips
was elected the first time. and the
one year later when Mrs. O'Neil
was elected. Only fifty-five votes
were cast at this election. and there
were only two candidates-Mr. Phil
lips and Mrs. O'Neil. who were
unanimously elected to succeed
themselves.
According TO Law the board has
TO meet within. twenty-four hours
after the election and organize. and
this was done. n. Phillips being

Given To Strike Breakers
At SOrg Mill.

1t is said that the management
of the Sorg Paper Mill in Middle
town, presented each one of lis
strike breakers who showed the
yellow in the recent strike with a
big Turkey as Christmas remem-
brance. 1t is also said that it is
the first time in the existance of the
Sorg Mill that the employees ever
received Christmas present,
Well that's easy, there's a strike
on there now and something like
this is usually done in all strikes
to keep the non-believers in lire.
No union nan would ever think of
selling his freedom fer a turkey,
nay not dozen turkeys.

Eleven Years
Litigation,
UNITED HATTERS DE-
FEATED BY HAT
MAKERS.

Washington, Jan. s. Ending IL
years litigation, the Supreme
Court Tuesday held that some two
hundred Connecticut labor union
members must pay 1852, 130. 09
damages under the Sherman anti
trust law for a nation wide boycott
of d. d. Loewe & Co.. Danbury,
Conn, hat manufacturers, who re
fused to unionize their shops. The
bank accounts and homes of many
OF the men already are under at
tachment to pay the judgment, and
the next step probably will be fore
closure.
Leading lawyers of Congress dis
agreed today on whether this de-
cision meant that union workmen
would be liable in the future for
damages on account of boycotts.
Some hold that the Clayton anti
trust law passed last year after this
suit had been tried weuld make
another such prosecution impos.
sible.
1t was in the Danbury hatters'
case that the Supreme Court de-
cided in 1898 that labor unions
were subject to the terms of the
Sherman antitrust law and sent the
suit back to the New York Federal
Court for trial,

Favors State Fund Plan.

Des Moines Iowa, Jan. s Com
missioner Garst, in charge of the
enforcement of the state workmen' S
compensation law, is heading a
movement that favors the state
fund plan for meeting fatality and
accident claims. Private insurance
companies, as can be expected, are
opposing this theory as is the Iowa
Manufacturers association. In de-
fending the state fund idea. Com
missioner Garst said.
In my Judgment the amount
charged to the employer under ex-
isting manuals has been and is
grossly excessive, it having cost
the employer from so to 100 per
cert more than it she uld at fair
rate. At the same time, the COM
pensation allowed the injured en-
ploye is ludicrously small. The
compensation law was supposed to
have been enacted for the benefit
of the employees of the state. If
this is true the first consideration
should be given to their interest.
