up to take in the last day of the
Bottineau county fair last Fri.

peep at The flying machine, and
we want to 60 on record here
with the statement that we
don't believs there @as ever
been a better or bigger county
fair in the state than that put
up by Bottineau county this
year. The attraction were ex-
cellent and the exhibits some.
thing to be proud of. The stock
parade was certainly a credit to
the progressive stock raisers of
Bottineau county. Rugby was

automobiles going up that
morning.-Rugby Optimist.

credit last Sunday when they
went to Velva and won from

had very little trouble winning
the game which ended IL to 7

very long one (75 miles each
way) and when this is taken
into consideration the boys did

COAL BARONS RETRACT
FALSE STATEMENTS

DENVER, Jan. ao.-President Lin
coins statement that the people can't
be fooled all the time is recalled by the
action of the Colorado Fuel and Iron
company in publicly retracting former
declara tions regarding moneys ex-
pended by officers of the United Mine
Orkers union.
The company stated. several months
ago, that these moneys covered a
period Of nine weeks. When President
Welborn was cross-examined by the
Industrial relations commission. he was
compelled to acknowledge the state
ments were untrue. The company has
now issued another bulletin, which
states Tice p that the moneys expended by
Jones. and others were for one year
instead of nine weeks.
Having in mind the operators dis
regard for state laws, which caused
all the trouble in Colorado, unionists
are asking what this closing declara-
tion by President Welborn means.
No company can succeed permanent
| ly which does not deserve and receive
the confidence Of both it's own en-
ployes and the public. 1t is the policy
Of the management of the Colorado
Fuel and Iron company to command
this confidence"

PICKETING HELD. .~~...-~~ = -. =,
TO BE WITHIN LAW
Continued From Page 1.

carry on what is called picketing.
Men acting in concert naturally desire
to know whet is going on. I think
it is possible that picketing may be
carried on legitimately although it
is open to the danger of abuse, and
very often is abused. It must be con-
coded, think, from the showing here
that what has been done in this case
has been done by concerted action.
I think it is fair to conclude from the
evidence adduced here, that there has
been on the part Of some of the men,
bers of the one or the other of these
unions, the use of force against GER
plainant, that there has been the use
of threats and insulting language and
it is conceded that there has been
picketing.
1T is claimed that it must be shown
I that damages have resulted but take
it that if person or corporation is
carrying on a business and it's en-
ployes are subjected to physical vio-
lence, or to threats of physical Vio-
lence, or to insulting language on
their way to and from work, a court
will take notice of such conduct that
such conduct must of itself result In
damage to the employer. It is not
necessary to trace damage of a defi-
mite sum in dollars to any particular
Insulting language against the en-
ployes who desire to work.
II think, under the circumstances
of this case, that temporary injunc-
ton would issue against the defend
ants, but it should be confined within
narrow limits. It should be con-
fined to a prohibition of the use of
physical force by the defendants
against the employees of the CON-
plainant, and Of threats to use physi-
| opprobrious names, such as "scab''
and 'rats,' because the use of those
names is not legitimate argument or
legitimate persuasion, but is in the
nature of threats. Picketing should
be prohibited only SO far as it is bad
for the purpose Of the use of physical
force, or threats of physical force, or
the use of abusive language. In other
words it may be used for peaceful
purposes only. I can see no reason
at the present time at least, why the
prohibition of picketing should go any
further than this. Such matters as
persuading employees to quit should
not be prohibited, and cannot legally
be prohibited under the law. Neither
can Attempts to persuade others to
quit by means of paying them, be
prohibited, under the law as it now
stands
IF I have made myself clear as to
the limits to which it should he con-
fined, think a temporary injunction
should issue; and counsel for com
plainant may draw such a temporary
injunction and submit it to counse
for defendants to be examined before
1t is presented to the court for sigma.
! ture."

children employed in the harvest
| fields, in the strawberry fields, the
pea canneries and oyster beds work
cheaper than most men would, but
their life is stunted. There are 2,0O0,-
900 children working in the United
States who are under Is years of age.
State Rights Not Involved.
This question of child labor has
ceased to be a matter of states rights
and it is no longer logical to argue
against national legislation for the
abolition of this greatest curse of
society" said Mr.. Armstrong.
Bargain Hunting a Cause.
aside from the poverty and ignor-
!ance of many parents and the british
inhumanity of many employers of la
Dor, bargain hunters are among those
who make child labor not only pos
sible but necessary according to Rev
Armstrong. The great mania to get
| something cheap. without question:
ing the conditions under which the
| commodity may have been made even
though the goods may be stained with
the "blood of little Children the
greed of employers to get cheap labor
and the demand of stockholders for
dividends are among the causes for
child labor"
Union Labor a Remedy.
Labor unions, the Socialist party
and the National Child Welfare bu-
| reau are the most important agencies
| working consistently for the abolition
of child labor was the contention of
Rev. Armstrong and he urged that
the union label be asked for in gar
ments especially as a guarantee
against buying goods which have been
made probably at the cost of blight
ed child life.
Numerous statistics were offered to
show the extent Of child labor in the
! United States and greater knowledge
of the menace of child labor was rec
commended by Mr. Armstrong. He
further recommended that letters be
written to Congressman Lenroot and
Senators La Toilette and Stephenson,
mot that it is necessary to write
to at least two of these gentlemen,
but rather to let them know that the
| people are awake to the necessity of
a national law to wipe the curse of
child labor from the nation.

Suppose you found that the ex-
ecutives of the Colorado Fuel and
Iron company had taken away the
rights of the men 2" he was asked.
II would have to hear all sides"
he replied. IF the directors de-
termined that the executive officials
were guilty, they would have to
stand any action the board might
take"
What would you do to corpo-
ration officer who admitted that he
had used money and influence in
an election?" Chairman Walsh
asked.
~ would do my utmost to have
him separated from the corpora
tion," the witness replied. II would
not care to be associated in business
with such dishonest man."
Favors Partial Blacklist.
Commissioner Walsh asked Mr..
Rockefeller whether he thought it
legal and right for corporations to
use blacklist"
The witness said he believed a
corporation might have it's own list
of undesirable butt that he did
not believe the list should be sent
to other companies.
He testified that he favored COL
lective bargaining on the part of the
employees. The position Of the
worker would be much stronger I'M
der such conditions, the witness
agreed. Workers employed by. an
unjust and unkind employer would
be at a great disadvantage.
An organization of the employees
of the Colorado Fuel and Iron COM
pany not affiliated with national
union would do what was necessary
for their welfare, he thought.
Mr.. Walsh read from MI. Rookie
feller's testimony before congress
sional committee, passage to the
effect that he believed the workers
should be free to do as they please.
No War ON Unions. -
'tThat statement has been mis-
construed to be declaration of war
on unions" said the witness II
did not mean that. I have always
been in favor of organization"
| Mr.. Rockefeller described in de-
tail the general plan suggested by
Mackenzie King and transmitted by
the witness himself to Mr.. Welborn,
the president of the Colorado Fuel
and Iron company, under which the
employees have been recently organ
lied.
Mr.. Welborn had at first sug-
gested that "three safe men," could
be picked by the company to repre-
sent the employees. Mr.. Kings plan
provided for democratic representa-
ton on q committee to take up all
! questions with the owners of the
company. twenty-five men, elected
by ballot, the witness said, are on
the committee now. Z.
Mr.. Rockefeller added that it was
obvious the last named plan was
the better. He thought the plan
would Immensely improve the stu
ation.". He said he did not know
1 whether he would accord the com
mittee the. right to affiliate with
similar committees IN Colorado. #
