Good goods on shelves and counters
is commendable rule for merchants;
but if merchants don't let people know
what they have on shelves and count
ers they will be quite likely to keep
what they have rather than sell them.
Don't advertise if you want to keep
your goods; If you want to sell them

decisions are based upon laws so worded
in their construction that they may be
interpreted to suit the malshapen, mis-
informed and biased minds of petty
tyrants, whom political accident has
elevated to seat OF justice.
Labor will not always submit to merci-
less exploitation and deprivation of their
sacredly inherent rights ito life, liberty
and the pursuit of happiness There is
a limit to human endurance of unjust
laws and the enforcement of unjust court
decrees. Labor, the creator of all the
wealth of the world, has been very mod
est in its demands for a more just re-
ward for valuable services rendered to
society. In the ranks of labor there has
risen voice of protest against the many
acts of injustice that have been and are
being perpetuatcd against those who have
become leaders in the labor movement.
This protest is growing stronger and
louder with each act of injustice. One
of these days it will become 50 loud that
it will arouse and thoroughly awaken the
sleeping hosts of labor, who will then
remember the many injustices that have
been heaped upon them, and in the mad
ness of their resentment they will wreak
a terrible vengeance upon society that
has permitted these injustices to be COM
mitted
The laws Of retaliation and retributon
are as old as the race of men, There is
but one escape from the calamitics that
they bring, and that is absolute justice
between men--not the judgment based
upon laws-but justice based Upon the
right of every human being born into
this world to an equal opportunity to live
and develop their lives, and the fullest
enjoyment of the fruits of their own
deavors-EXchangc

law, these people will lose their homes
and be cast out amidst the countless
hosts Of homeless laborers.
These people are guilty of no crime,
were they to be tried under the Federal
laws of today. Under the Clayton anti
trust law they could not be judged guilty
Of violation of law and would not lose
their homes, for the reason that this law
specifically declares that human labor is
not commodity. that men have the right
to act comparatively to secure better
wages and working conditions, and that
in exercising that right they shall not be
judged as doing that which is in viola
ton of the laws.
Primarily and theoretically, laws are
supposed to be based upon justice; if the
Clayton amendment to the antitrust
laws is a just law, then the laws under
which these people are deprived of their
homes was an unjust law and the ne
forcement of the courts decree is a
damnablc injustice.

CINCINNATI FIRMS

Cincinnati firms have just received
orders that run far up into the thou-

He is the manager of the Copp Stove
Company at that place. and the shops

ammunition for the English army.
A large number of lathcs and other

machinery, and with one or two other
local concerns for special machinery.
