AN ECHO FROM LUDLOW

K. E. Linderfelt, murderer of wo-
men and children, found guilty of un-
soldierly conduct and sentenced to be
reduced ten numbers in rank
John R. Lawson, held technically
responsible for shot which struck a
deputy sheriff in the leg from which
he later bled to death, and adjudged
guilty of murder in the first degree
and sentenced to life imprisonment.
In any other community than one
owned and controlled by the Rookie
feller interests this sentence might
pass unnoticed
A peculiar coincidence is that at the
same time Lawson's jury of peers was
finding him guilty, the federal board
on industrial relations was denouncine
Rockefeller ane his tremendous
wealth as a menace to the nation.
1t was Rockefeller's system that be-
came unbearable and brought about
the Ludlow strike and the consequ.
ent bloodshed.
We wonder how much of his putrit
money Rockefeller will donate to
foundations and foreign missions tc
purge his bloody conscience of its in
iquity. We wonder just how great
sum he thinks it takes to buy COLDER
crown to adorn his bald pate in ths
world to come?
How can he cleanse his filthy gols
sufficiently to have it acceptable to th'
church of which he is so prominent?
Little mounds of earth. in Colo
rado, tell a story far more eioquen
than words. of how this Croesus mad
his millions.
The charred and blackened upturn
ed faces of his Ludlow victims pleat
piteously for justice. Will they ge
it?
Not until the day of judgment whei
he sheds his golden raiment and cloth
ed in just the simple garments of hi
poorer brother man and the good an,
evil he has done will be weighed on
against the other.
We venture to say that the recen
verdict is simply the pus from rottei
political and industrial system wher
those who had to do with law an
justice were subservient to system
Retribntion, swift and sure mus
come to this king of robbers.-Labo

"A Grand Rally For Friday Evening
Silver Jubilee Meeting

H
One the largest meetings of any
fraternal order ever held in Boise was
the Silver Jubilee celebration of the
Boise Camp, No. 6777 M. w. of Al.
Thursday evening, May 4th, in honor
OF fourteen men who have been mem
bers of the order for rs years or more.
A good program and the best of re-
freshments were enjoyed by all pres
ent, and at this meeting campaign
was launched for $50 class adoption.
The regular $500 membership fee
is set aside for sixty days to give,
every able-bodied citizen an oppor-
tunity to join. the largest and best
of all orders, with membership in
the United States of more than H.
100000 and in Boise of over 700, with
insurance features for the protection
OF dependent and loved ones--a duty
which every citizen owes to his
family.
This class adoption is to be put
on not later than July --15 and all
members present agreed to at least
bring in one new member. Twenty
one cards were voted upon at this
meeting and 1t is thought this will be
the largest class adoption ever held
in Boise by any order. Now is the
time to become a Modern Woodman.
A. w. Kool, clerk of this order in
Boise, has the reputation of being a
hustler and at all times a good con-
servative leader and all contmplating
taking out fraternaI insurance are ur-
ged to call upon him at his offices in
the Yates Building. Mr@Kool is al
so president of the Municipal Own
ership Club.

Another Reason For Quick Action

With the consolidation Of the electric power companies oper
ating in Boise there will be lot of duplicated equipment that
will be comparatively worthless to the company We
advised by eminent legal authority that the city would possess
undoubed right condemn this equipment for public
case municipal ownership of power plant decided upon
This question will be considered its various phases by the
organized Municipal Ownership Club and will add materially
the necessity for immediate action by hec upon the entire
question Of public ownership Of power plant There could
be effected saving of many thousands Of dollars in the initial
cost Of the enterprise by seizng this opportunity and this in
turn would make annual saving of large in interest
charges 1t will be buder bordering upon the criminal
if the citizens of Boise do rally to the Of
ncpal ownership of power plant considering all the SPECIAL
favored conditions now within the grasp of our city
