THE CRY OF 'sWoLF."-woR,
wolf, the old cry of the G. o. P.
Mr.. HiIles of the Republican party
says in a conference of business men
in N. Y. that not until a Republican
is returned to the White House can
there be a return to prosperity"
That has been the cry Of the Re-
pubEicans every time that they have
been ousted from the White House
for years, in other words "SOur
Grapes"
The Republican party is directly
responsible for the hard times we
have, especially when they are out of
office, as by their cry of wolf and
their constant talk Of what will hap
pen if any one but a Republican oc-
cupies the White House cause the
people and business IN general to be-
come 'tpanicy'' and retrench, (party
poIftics) ''the constant dripping of
water will wear away stone" and
because they continuously harp on
the hard times and business depres-
sion, people believe it, and so create
their own hard times.
President Wilson wasn't inaugu-
rated before the Republicans began
to predict four years Of financial de-
preston. Even the depression due
to the present war in Europe is laid
directly to the fact that we have a
Democratic president instead of a
Republican.
l was sorry to see President VIII
son elected, but we have him to
THANK that we are not at war our
selves. His sane policy has saved us
from worse than business depression.

yet they cried hard times and laid on
hundreds of people, even though
there were not sufficient sales peo-
pie to take care of the public.
Miss Bernstein should be support
ed in her claims for damage, by all
intelligent and well meaning people.
Let us stand shoulder to shoulder
with Mr.. Cantfeld in his endeavor to
prosecute this firm whose every effort
is bent toward depressing the labor
ing classes.-W. NJ. Begg.

SUPREME COURT
GIVES Decision
Renders Verdict That Is Far
Reaching in Favor Of Org
anized Labor.

Washington, D. C., Jan.25.-The
constitutional right OF employers to
require employees to renounce union
affiliations as a condition OF employ
ment was denied by the Supreme
Court in a decision far reaching to
organized labor, in which the Kansas
so-called Coercion statute is declared
unconstitutional. Associate Justice
Day, joining in the dessenting opin
ion with Justices Hughes and Holmes
declared the belief that similar laws
in 13 other states and Porto Rico, fell
by the decision.
The Kansas Statute.
Under the Kansas statute it is IN
lawful for any individual or corpora
ton to coerce, or influence, any pei:
son to enter into an agreement not tc
join or remain a member of a labor
organization as condition of secur
ing or continuing employment.
Other laws, which according tt
Justice Day, are invalidated by the
opinion, include the state of Mime

NONE TOO SOON.

No better proof than the baseless
charges filad by three citizens OF
Jamestown, is necessary to prove
that the state took it's institutions out
of local control none too soon.
These citizens represent clearly
the old idea that the management OF
state institutions was in some way
accountable to the locality in which
they happened to be situated. The
insane asylum at Jamestown is no ex.
ception to the rule. For years local
considerations entered into the man,
agement and personnel Of that insti-
tuition.
The animus of these charges is
plain. They were sent broadcast to
the press of the state before Cover.
nor Hanna, members of the legisla
ture or the board of control had seen
them. II fact, the newspapers were
apprised of the situation first and the
motive was purely to reflect upon the
general management of the institu
ton.
There are some people in the insti
tutional towns who cannot become
recoaciled to the board of control
system. Under the old system the
Institutions were objects Of prey.
Certain cliques dictated details of
management and other privileges
were enjoyed which necessarily are
denied now under the board of con-
troll system.
Nothing has been done at the in.
sane asylum unauthorized by law.
Two of the attorneys signing the
complaint knew that the Emergency
Commission authorized the diversion
of these funds. Unable to dictate
the management of the institution,
they sought to wreck the regulations
of the men intrusted with the institu.
ton and ruin if possible the disc-
pine and morale of the institution
itself. Their motives are too plain to
receive serious consideration either
from the legislature or the public.
The present management Of the in
stitution has demonstrated it's efti-
cheney. Assaults from disgruntled
tcwnspeople should carry no more
weight than the real motives convey.
Our institutions are fast being lifted
above the partisan influences of To-
calities. That is where the shoe
pinches.
Local feuds should receive scant
consideration by the legislature, as
they have at the hands of the mem
bers of the board Of control. In this
struggle to divorce the institutions
from LEGAL factiolalism, the legisla-
ture should uphold the board of con-
troll.
The beard of control has proved
beyond question the unfairnass Of the
charges.
