JOHN 0RLAVD|CH
TELLS HIS STORY
FOR FIRST TINE

A great big hulk of a man with in
nocent baby eyes stood looking out of
the bars in the st. Louis county Jail.
The interpreter spoke rapidly to him
IN his own language. The baby eyes
lighted up and filled with tears. Ges-
tlculating. the big man poured forth
his tale, in melod:ous strange sound
ing words.
1t was the first time that John Or
landich had been able to make him
self clearly understood since he was
imprisoned. Orlandich, Tresca, Scar
lett, Cernogorovich, Nickich and Ma
sonovich, Iron Range miners, who
went on a strike, are all in Jail
charged with murder. The people of
Minnesota, through their government,
claim that these men killed James
Myron, special deputy, during the
Range strike.
Orlandich doesn't even know why
he is in Jail. He asked the Interpreter
if he had broken any laws by refus-
ing to work. The trials are to start

ANARCHISTS FREY

QUINCY, ILL.,, Oct. 26.-The anar-
chists of the country are the injunc-
ton granting courts, according to
John Frey, editor of the Molder's s
Journal, speaking before the Illinois
State Federation of Labor lire today.
Frey is also an executive officer of
the international Molder's Union.
Frey's speech in part, follows:
''The anarchists of this country are
not the organized laboring men, but
the Injunction granting courts, when
their injunctions deny the constitu-
tional rights of organization.
We have government by judges as
we'll as government by law. And in
cases of judge-made law we find a
milestone about the neck of labor.
"You were told that if you gave
money or help to some strikers in Chi
cago you would be put in Jail for con-
tempt of court. We can make it i'm
i ossible for any judge to sit on the
bench and overthrow our constitu-
tional rights"
