HARD LINES FOR Wc-Poor old
Vic Lawson, former boss of Chicago,
is having hard luck these days. The
cards are running nasty for him. He
doesn't like Thompson because
Thompson publicly advertised Law
son as a taxdOdger. He didn't want
Thompson to be nominated. But
Thompson was nominated. Then
Lawson didn't want him elected. The
New supported Sweitzer News read
ers failed to obey orders. They vot-
ed for Thompson. Thompson was
elected. Then came the street car
strike, with great glory for Mayor
Thompson. Lawson was peeved for
some reason. But he didn't dare
jump on the mayor. Thompson was
too popular. So poor. old Lawson
emitted an editorial from right off the
top of sour stomach and roasted
the tar out of Aldermen Kennedy and
Rodriguez, two of the best members
of the city council. 1 mean best for
the public, not best for Lawson.
Vic, might write a letter to Doc
Evans of the Trib and ask him what's
good for sour stomach.

body can force a man, by law, to
work if the man doesn't want to
work and won't work. No law can
prevent a man from striking if he
doesn't want to work. He can't be
deprived of his right to have some
thing to say about the terms and con-
ditions under which he will work.
Unions and corporations can agree
to arbitrate their differences, but the
law can't make them do it.
A square deal in the street railway
arbitration will do more to make ar
bitration popular than law attempt
ing to make it compulsory.
AS for the corporations, the law
can prevent the use of strikebreaking
thugs and gunner. 1t can put stop
to the corporation game of import
ing desperadoes, organizing them
into a private army and using them
to whip workingmen into subsection
by the use of brute force. When
that game is stopped, then corpora
lions will feel more like arbitrating.
The Daily News is one of the news
papers that merely barked during the
strike, and which is now demanding
compulsory arbitration. Editor Law
son doesn't know what he is talking
about. This is getting to be habit
with his paper.
