LABOR LEADER IS
DECLARED GUILTY
John K. Lawson Convicted Of
Murder Growing Out Of
Strike in Colorado.

Trinidad, Col, May John r..
Lawson, member of the International
Executive Board of the United Nine
workers of America. Monday was
found guilty of murder in the first
degree in connection with the death
at Ludlow, Col, October rs. 1913, of
John Nimmo. a deputy sheriff. Law
son was sentenced to spend the re-
mainder OF his life at hard labor in
the Colorado penitentiary. Under
the Colorado statutes the jury, which
had been celebrating since Satur-
day night. was empowered to return
a sentence either of death or life i'm
prisonment. Thirty days were given
attorneys for the defense to file a mo-
ton for a new trial.
Judge Hillyer later announced that
the labor leader would be released
on $4,000 bond pending action on
his motion for a new trial. Law
sons former bond In Las Animas
county was $4,000. The new bond
was arranged for at conference be-
tween Judge Hiiiyer and Horace N.
Hawkins. chief counsel for the de-
Tense.

LEGISLATION IS
THE ONLY REMEDY
1t Cannot Come Until ee-Trade
is Abolished in the Presiden-
tial Election Of 1916.

The one great big issue in the
campaign of 1916 will be the Tariff
The enactment of the Underwood
Simmons near-free-trade law and
consequent damage to business made
the Tariff the only possible issue.
There is no countrywide condition
to-day that demands remedial legis-
lation as does the deplorable condi-
tion of business. The great pity is
that relief cannot come sooner than
il will through the electing of q Re
publican President and a Republican
Congress in 1916. The probil'ty of
such a change for the (much) better
at this time grows stronger every
day. In fact, it may well be termed
as certainty. The Free-Trade
blight has been heavy and widespread
and the people of this country await
anxiously and with patience quite
natural. and therefore excusable, for
the time to come when they can
again register their disapproval of
the party that persists in doing things
that are known through past exper-
fence, to be injurious to the business
interests of the country.
1t must be remembered that the
majority of the voters did not really
vote for a tariff for revenue only
(near-Free-Trade) and for the abol-
ishing of the Protective Tariff. True
those who voted for Mr.. Wilson vot-
ed for the abolishing of the Protect
i've Tariff, although many of them
may not have realized what they were
doing in that respect. 1t is quite
possible that even some Democrats
quite a considerable number of them.
voted for near-Free-Trade inadver-
tently. 1t seems incredible that any
business man or any workingman
would vote deliberately against his
own interests-the former voting
himself a reduction of business and
the latter voting himself out of a
job or a reduction in pay. but thou
sands did that very thing in 1912,
either unwittingly or with blind
partisanship.
However, there were not enough
votes cast for the Democratic ticket
to have brought about this deplorable
change of the Tariff policy Of the
country, had the G. o. p. remained
intact. without the aid of Republi-
cans calling themselves "Progres-
sives" who voted for Colonel Roose-
welt or Mr.. Wilson, in either case the
effect being the same, the Democrat
ic party could not have won. Those
voters were not Free-Trade Demo-
Gratis. Neither we're they Free-Trade
Republicans or Free-Trade progress
sives." All were Protectionists-
some of the ultra kind and others OF
the conservative class. but still all
Protectionists. Had they voted the
Republican ticket, the business of the
country would have continued to
prosper immensely, for then there
would have been no Democrats med
ding with the Tariff. The great
bulk of these did not leave the Re-
publican party at all. They voted
the Progressive" ticket or voted for
Mr.. Wilson for temporary purposes
confined to that single
To-day they are heart
and soul with the G. o. p. and they
will be in Iceland with them will

Trade hurt Democrats, and therin
lies the country's hopes for better
