 Joseph KupedIowski, arrested week ago on the charge of stealing $500 worth of silk from the steamer CheI- sea, was given a hearing in the city court on Monday In the morning one of the witnesses was unable to get to the court and so the case was deferred until 8 o'clock in the afternoon, when Judge John H. Barnes presided. Agent F. " R. Knouse of the company, Mi chael Cooper of Lebanon, who used to be stevedore on the. Chelsea, and oth- CTS were called at witnesses, but little evidence could be brought forward against the man, and Attorney Edward T. Burke, who represented the pris- oner, did not have to advance any ar gument, and the prisoner was dis charged by Judge Barnes.
 The judge will start at the end of the week for a soJou1n among the White mountains and Deputy Judge Henry H. Pettis will lend dignity to the bench during. his absence.

WHY EMPLOYERS FAVOR
SERVICE PENSION PLANS

San Francisco. - The Southern Pa
ciilc railroad warned employees that il
they joined the threatened strike for an
eight-hour day they will forfeit their
pension rights and Editor Barry of the
Star says:
That was to have been expected
Every corporation that introduces an
old age pension scheme does so with
the reservation, clearly expressed, that it
may withdraw its provisions whenever
it sees fit to do so. In other words, the
employe never acquires a vested right
to be cared for in his old age-it all de-
pends upon his subservience and willing
ness to submit to the rules laid down by
his superiors for his guidance.
That is the difference between a real
pension, such as the Typographical un-
ion, for instance, provides for its aged
members, and the 'tin-can' kind which
has a nice strong string tied to it and
can be disconnected without consulting
the wishes of the supposed beneficiary.
One may work for 20 or 25 years with
the tempting bait of provision for his
declining years dangling before his.eyes,
only to discover that on account of some
infraction of rules or a desire to i'm
prove his condition by acting with his
fellow employees, he is cut off from the
promised benefits OF long and faithful
service.
mo doubt the service pension is a
good thing in its way; but its real OBJ
| jcct is to enforce obedience and sub
servience by threat of its withdrawal
1t is not a safe dependence for red
blooded Americans"

UNIONS WILL STICK
WITH FARMER ALLIES

Tacoma, Wash.-At a meeting of the
executive committee of the Washington
State Federation of Labor it was de-
cided to only favor such future intitia-
tive measures that particularly affect
the organizations represented in this
coalition and which are well understood
by our members"
The coalition referred to is the unity
of farmers and trade unionists. work
ing through Joint legislative commit
tee, to secure remedial legislative relief
through the initiative and referendum.
This coalition has been defeated in its
recent effort to place four measures on
passed by the last legislature which
compels farmers to register before they
can sign petition. This handicap is
further increased by state supreme
court ruling that the preamble of pro-
posed bills, which serve explanatory pur-
poses, shall not be permitted.
Despite these obstacles the trade I'M
ionists are not discouraged and the ex-
ecutive committee of the state fedora
ton of labor is determined that the
hopes of labor's opponents that the in
dustrial workers and the farmers will
split must not be realized. On this sub
ject the executive committee says:
Nor has any movement in twenty
years got under the hides of the ex-
plotting classes in this state as has the
legislative coalition of farmers and
trade unionists sailing under the banner
of the joint legislative committee. Ev-
cry member of that committee is as cor
daily hated by the powers that prey
as were the snakes of Erin's isle by the
good ST. Patrick"
