THE PRECEDENT.

There are number Of labor trials pending throughout the states, Most of these arise out of strike troubles. Strikes start, violence fol- lows and arrests are made. The government in charge tries there upon to make the strikers guilty ot all violence that took place. It is quite immaterial that the accused men are positively known to have nothing to do with the crimes for which they are charged: it is suttl- cient that they took part in the strike and sufficient they were members in the organization which went on the strike from which yiol- ence grew, to have them guilty It was on such a precedent that Ford Lawson in Colorado Scarlett and Tresca in the iron range are charged with being guilty of murder That the murders lE the latter case were committed by gunmen in the employ of the stee! company has not been allowed to affect the indictment in the least. It is sufficient that the men indicted were guilty of aiding and abetting the strike during the course of which the company guards commit ted acts of violence, to make the strikers and not the guards the gull
 ty ones in the eyes of the law.
 Everyone of these labor trials, some of which have ended. some of which are nearly finished and others which are still pending, have for their purpose the establishment of a precedent that strikers be respons- ible for all results of a strike. r crime is committed no matter if it ia committed by the corporation against the strikers, the latter are to be ad
 judged guilty. If this becomes Ju- dicial precedent, fully supported and thus part of the regular Con- mon Law, it is easy to see what powerful weapon it will be in the hands of the employing classes ir the suppression of strikes. Equality before the law, did some one say?

SOME READY WIT.

There are compensation acts and compensation acts, and most of them have the altruistic employers wond- ering how they can get out of pay ing compensation when under the law it is due.
 A Pennsylvania efficiency expert discovered how. His plan is ingeni, ous. It is worth repeating. He had a very dangerous plant and acci- dents were frequent. So he made his employees all shareholders in the company by donating one share apiece to them as bonus" When one of them sued the corporation for damages, they found that they were suing themselves as stockhold- CTS and that the master and servant relation did not hold. This labor legislation is to laugh!

JURY PICKING.

The strikers walked out of the Allis-Chalmers plant at West Allis, Milwaukee had the West Allis Chief of Police enjoined. It was an inter- esting restraining order which was issued against Chief Minturn. It appears that West Alls has an ordi- nance which enables the chief of police to hand-pick jurors and as many strikers were arrested in that section during the strike against the machinist company, they had to take this means of protecting themselevs from the jury-picking tendency of chief favoring the company against whom the men were on strike.
 Now that case has a particularly interesting feature as far as Alaska is concerned The Judge granted the restraining order and said that the ordinance enabling a hand picked jury to try men was vicious in principle But hand picked juries are the vogue in Alaska. They have been the vogue in Nome from time immemorial. Isn't it time that something was done about it, when even the courts outside recognize the fact that hand picked juries are vicious in principle. We trow, yes.

SHE WAS INSANE.

Back in Barraboo. Wisconsin, a lady was arrested because she point ed a gun at several people. She was considered insane. But had there been a strike ou and had she been a gunman employed by a company whose employees were on strike, the crazy person could not only have pointed her gun at every person came along, but could nave emptied it's contents on the first crowd, and further instead of being insane, would have been upheld as an up- holder of law and order. Economic determinism, that's all.

FIGHT OVER THE BONE.

When one over-ethusiastic politi- cally minded workingman up-braid- ed the other for his lack of inter- est in the scraps of rival politicians he received the rebuke indifferently. Ever see two dogs scrapping over a bone, he asked, Well I'm the bone", he averred,
 Now that was considered a very unpleasant and inappropriate re. mark when first it went the rounds of publicity, but the facts in the in' dustrial world are alive with incl dents confirming the correctness of the view so strikingly put by the politically indifferent one.
 Take a recent case in point. Shortage of help Cor insufficiency of unemployed to select from, and to make use of, to brow beat discon- tented. workers into submission. which is, under this capitalist eco- nomy. the same thing) stimulated northern manufacturers to go south after negro help which they brought up by the carload to the northern or western states.
 It was a distribution of the sur. plus. In consequence when the sur plus in the south became reduced and there was not sufficient compe- tition among the workers there. employers became alarmed and they became angry over the si-

INTELLECTU.}LS.

The socialist intellectuals resemble in many ways the lawyers. They seem almost out of place out side the legal profession, for the can split more and finer hairs than anyone outside an expert of legal technicailities. Take those high browed parliamentarians over in Europe. The French aud the Ge+- nan socialists are chewing the rag as to what would have been the po- Hey of Juares had he not been shot dnr.n. The Germans say he would haze oppose; the war, while the F'renchmen say that he would haze upheld it.
 Now comes Kautsky who being a bit of a militar:st himse:: who says that Juarez undoubtedly would have agreed with the policies on both the French and English governments which he thought would have kept the nations out of the war. In this Juares was of course wrong, says Kautsky, like most of the French socialists.
 When these intellectuals become so sectarian that they dispute over fool questions as to what the dead would have done if they had lived, it is an evident sign of mental dis solution, the departure of vitality and the decay of the movement.

FOREIGN.

The great argument that was brought against the single tax in California during the last election was that it was foreign" importa- tion. The singletaxers pointed out that their plan originated with Henry George Now Henry George himself would have put the s;ngle taxers right by pointing out that it was originated in France during the revolutionary era when it was known as l'impot unique.
 That is not here or there It is the familiarity of the argument. When interests want to oppose any movement that they don't like, ., is foreign and un-American. Thus anti-preparedness thus the refer- endum and recall, thus socialism, thus this, that and the other thing The scoundrels last refuge nnds many uses these days

rewarded by speech of almost sup erhuman .eloquence upon the part of some orator from an agricultural state on the evils of grading" as carried on at present in the wheat business. The farmers wheat is graded and it is paid for by the ele- vators or the brokers at the market rate for that grade. One carload goes in as Grade one, two carloads go in as Grade two, three go in as Grade three. And they reach the mills as three carloads of Grade One, two of Grade two, and one car load of Grade three. The difference goes to the middleman. It is a whole lot simpler than the ordinary methods of the bunco-steerer, and is quite legal Now comes the dairy man of a variety of states and says the milk is graded falsely in the same way to the farmers loss, and eke the corn raiser has the same sad tale to tell But what are you g0 ing to do about it? It's good bus mess and highly moral. for business, especially good business, like charity covers multitude of in iniquities.

MOTORS AND OTHER THINGS.

The question of buying motor to start an engine in the Nome pumping plant also suggests another question. Whose is that pumping plant? Is it the city's that it should go to the expense of making that plant efficient or is it owned by a private syndicate that would avoid the expense of making it efficient for the purpose of doing the work de- handed of it under contract with the city? What sort of a pig in a poke is it any way?

But the San Francisco Exam iner really excelled all the rest. It made him one of the men respons- ibe for the anarchist riots at Hay market, Chicago eight years before he was born.

In the Religious World
BY WILLIAM T. ELLIS
6y WILLIAM T, ELLIS.

Peter Is apparent. He was hungry.
He went to the common oriental
lounging place, the house top, to wait
until dinner should be ready. There
he fell into trance and had vision
! of food-a great sheet let down from
heaven containing all manner of
beasts and reptiles and birds. A voice
babe him Rise, Peter, kill and eat"
AS man is prone to do, Peter remon-
strated with God; for "I have never
yet eaten anything unholy or impure"
Foolish braggart, hurting his phari-
saical righteousness into the teeth of
God. The voice answered again,
What God has purified you must not
regard as unholy." Three times this
was said and then the vision was
withdrawn.
In the Roman Soldiers House,
After little more than a days jour-
ney Peter reached Caesarea. A long
journey, you say? No. At this very
day men are travelling far to serve
their fellow mems spiritual needs, or
to seek an answer to their perplexi-
ties. They will cross continents to
hear certain preachers and teachers
in hope of spiritual rest. There is no
consideration impelling to travel like
that Of spiritual unrest Suppose we
give right of way to spiritual con-
Germs, remembering the tragedy of the
men who are "too busy to cultivate
their own souls; "too busy" to fellow
ship with their own families; "too
busy to serve the kingdom Of God.
Peter was busy but he had time to
make this long Journey for the sake
of an inquiring Roman.
What barriers religion levels Proud
Cornelius threw himself at Peters
feet. He was quickly raised again
with the remark II am but man.
God has taught me to call no one I'M
holy or unclean." Gone was the an
cient Jewish sense of superiority.
Within the house Of the soldier
Peter found large company, COM
prising the relatives and friends oil
the host So to them he preached the
old, old story, and 10, the Holy Spirit
fell on all who were listening to the
message, to the amazement Of Peters
Jewish companions.
Once more the great apostle showed
his greatness and his grace, for he did
not balk at the final step of baptism.
No "proselyte of the gate" or outer
court converts for the new church.
Those upon whom the spirit had come
were baptized and made members of
the Christian community. Criticism
followed but Peter had followed the
light. The spirit had bourne witness
and there was no gainsaying that tes-
timony. So was passed crisis in
Christian history and the church
, learned for all time that in Christ
Jesus there Is neither Jew nor Cen
tile, bond or free. IS. y

A proud Roman and prouder Jew
one day lost their historic prejudices
and become not only tolerant Of what
was on the other side of the high wall
which divided them from other peo-
pie, but they actually crossed the wall
themselves. This lesson tells the
story. Crowded with incident, 1t re-

all meats are unclean; and strict
follower of the law Of Moses visiting

A Seeking Soldier.
Travel, observation, reading and
maturity Of thought all play havoc
with petty prejudices. There is no
class or calling or race or nation that
a wise man is willing to condemn. 1t
will go hard with some students of
this lesson, so strong Is certain an
tipathy to militarism, to realize that
God sent his angel to soldier Cap
tain Cornelius was a military man,
stationed at Caesarea, town on the
Mediterranean coast some thirty miles
above Joppa His duties were alto
gether those Of soldier, and out
wardly his life was controlled by the
profession Of arms. Withal, beneath
his breastplate he concealed heart
hungry for God. Spirituality belongs
to no sect or. group or condition of
mankind Our contact with Cornelius
should teach us that goodness Is a
universal aspiration. ..... ..
This seeking soldier did more than
aspire. He prayed and he served
Both his charities and his prayers
came up before God; for to such a
soul God would not deny himself. He
followed the light he had, and it is
to be recalled that although reared
among Roman polytheism, Cornelius
believed in one God and so was given
more light.
To him an angel appeared and babe
him 20 to Joppa for Peter. Little as
it may accord with our notions of a
Roman centurion, this soldier was OF
the sort to whom angels appear and
he could look unabashed into the face
of a heavenly visitant.
A Jew Who Broke Caste.
Nobody discards ancient prejudices
or convictions in a minute. Peter had
been slowly prepared for what was
coming to him. Pentecost had broad
ened his horizon, so that at Joppa ne
