make our status into that OF absolute
! equality-this moment if you wish. Do
| you wish it?'
| Sylvia stared blankly at the stern
white face of the woman confronting
her. Her anger had burned out like
| straw, and she was now only fright
ened and little resentful.
| II don't want to lose you, Miss
Smith," she stammered. Il know that
you do not care for me; but in your
strange way you have been friendly
! and II am very alone. l have conf
| dence in you. 1 am prepared to over
look the evenings outbreak"
That's what you cannot and shall
not do,' was the grim answer. "You
have driven your husband to the verge
| of madness, Madame Arnaud, and
| through madness to crime-to the muir
| der of a man who surely was once
dear to you"
"Whom do you mean"
Richard Farquhar."
81 forbid you-you are beside your.
SELF
GABRIELLE interrupted the indignant
protest with q quiet decision ttnged
with irony.
I'VE are always beside ourselves
| when we tell the truth, Madame Ar
maud. But fortunately have not much
| more to say. Go to your husband
tell him that Richard Farquhar never
was and never could be his rival in
your affections-tell him whom it was
you went to meet In the grove that
night"
II cannot-what you ask is absurd" :"
The gray, neat little figure came
closer.
"You are very lovely, Madame Ar
naud,' Gabrielle Smith said very gem
tIy and almost reyerently, zone under
stands why men suffer so much and
patiently for you. A mans life Is In
your power. Whatever he has done
he loved you. He still looks up to you
as saint in heaven. Madame Arnaud,
such loyalty is rare. You dare net kill
itr'
Sylvia laughed carelessly.
"That all comes too late" she said.
"You cannot plead to me for pity. And
justice! What justice dare you claim
for an outcast-a cheat, man whom
all honest men shrink from-or for
dissolute roue who has not shrunk
from murder? They have earned their
fate"
Sylvia rose instinctively to her feet,
and they faced each other in the silence
of unrelenting antagonism. The little
gray-cIad woman turned and went
quietly toward the door. For the first
time sylvia's voice sounded breathiess
and anxious.
What are you going to do?"
"I am going to act for you"
The door closed. Sylvia Arnaud ran
to it and, turning the key, set her back
against it as though shutting out an
unreasoned, nameless terror.

War Brings Autos to Crow lndians

War Brings Autos to Crow Indians.
The British are anxious to secure
good horses for use in the present
war, and they are buying large mum
bers from the Grow Indians.
The Crows are the wealthiest of the
northern Indian tribes and their
horses are the best.
The British are paying good prices
to the tribe, each horse fetching $3.50.
1t has become quite craze to spend
the money thus obtained in buying
motor cars. Even the poorest Grow
possesses from ten to twelve horses.
AT the first opportunity he sells these
and buys car.
During the Boer war the British
army purchased thousands of the In
dian ponies. The animals were light.
but strong, and capable of great en-
durance. With the money from their
ponies, the Crows invested in thor.
oughbred stations and Mares finally
possessing remarkably fine strain.

EMPLOYERS MUST -
USE CORRECT TERMS

SAN FRANCISCO, July 15.-The
editor of the San Francisco Bulletin
refuses to use terms by which anti
unionists may conceal their opposi-
ton to organized labor. He insists
that employers use correct terms and
when they refer to the ''open shop
they should say what they mean
uon-union shop.
The San Francisco chamber OF
commerce has declared for the 'open
shop" and the Bulletin says
THE chambers position is neces-
sarily partisan, and is not fair to
expect it to assume a judicial posi-
ton. It is fair, however, to expect
something more frank than a declar-
alton for the open shop'-the union
and the nonunion shop. At the pres
ent stage Of industry either the work
ingman has a powerful voice in shop
control or he has no vo:"e at all;
there is no middle stage. A fight for
the open shop is fight against
unionism.
IF the members of the chamber OF
commerce want to return % the con-
ditions which prevailed when labor
was entirely unorganized they should
say. So"

MAY DO PICKET :
DUTY IF 'MUZz[ED'
Court Issues Remarkable" De-
cree Affecting Bakers Strike
In Seattle.

SEATTLE, WASH, July is
Judge Boyd ]. 'Tallman believes strik-:
ers have the right to picket-if they
.impersonate an Egyptian mummy.
The court says he has discovered
no law against picketing, providing it
is 'tquiet, speeches., picketing," or IL
the pickets use words which the court
directs, constitutional guarantees to
the contrary Notwithstanding.
The st. German bakery secured an
Injunction against striking cooks and
bakers and later asked for damages
because Of picketing. This the court
refused. but told the strikers mot to
insist on each and every one Of your
rights if it is, going to get you into
trouble"
The learned court dispelled any. H.
fusion workers may have regarding
their right to freely speak their mind,
being responsible for same as the law
provides. This principle does not
apply when strikers are involved.
Then, property rights al : paramount,
with human rights side-tracked by in
junction judges.
Judge Tallman could not conceal
his mailed fist beneath the velvet
glove. He permitted the strikers to
picket, but they cannot speak to any
one while in front of the unfair bak-
cries or say anything about the en-
ployment Of Japs or Cinnamon or do
any other thing that would cause per-
sons not to trade with plaintiff. :.
The pickets were given permission
to carry a, badge or scarf; with the
| words "St. German bakeries and res
| taurants unfair to organized labor"
But nothing more, cautioned the
court, mo such words as Don't trade
| with them,' or Don't go into their
! stores or anything of that kind
After denying these workers rights
that are conceded, without question,
| business men and all other citizens,
| Judge Tallman assured the plaintiff
company that it could sue individual
strikers for damages. He said:
"Hence I think that this (the
| union) being a voluntary association,
| not being organized under any express
statute, it cannot be sued by an indi-
| vidual, but the individual members
may be sued, just as the member Of
co-partnership may be sued"
In other words, Il the strikers exer-
else their right of free speech they
may be sued for damages. not because
| they violated any libel law, but be-
cause their slater. ent of facts regard
ing deplorable working conditions re-
duced the size of an employer s

After they have paid all damages.
court costs and attorneys fees, Judge
Tallman can Jail them. under con-
tempt of court proceedings, for. not

A SINGING INDICTMENT.

NEW YORK, July 15.-The New
York World says that the ladies' gar
ment manufacturers who have locked
out their employees have rendered
their position more and more mex
cusable in the eyes Of disinterested
observers.
''They deliberately violated their
own written agreements and business
engagements when they made waste
paper Of the 'procotol.' In their ar
rogance they ignored the mayors ap-
peal to them for mediation. Their
one plan has been, through hunger
and suffering, to reduce their en-
ployes to yield absolutely on their
terms. They have had no decent de-
fence to offer at any stage for their
faithless and oppressive methods.
They have relied entirely upon the
hope that they would be able to
break down the courage and will of
men and women workers dependent
upon daily earnings for existence.
And they have failed" -.
