SWANSON FOR JUDGE
John A. Swanson will not be elect
ed to the Office of municipal judge if
women who work have their say. He
is running on the Republican ticket.
Swanson got in bad with the work
ing women when he voted at the 1911
meeting of the state legislature at
which he was a representative,
against the women's 10-hour law to
shorten the hours of working women.
He wanted an amendment which
would allow clerks in stores to work
IL hours on Saturdays.
''This would break down the very
foundation of our legislation" reads
a communication issued by the Wom-
ems Trade Union league and directed
against the candidacy of Swanson.
when he could not weaken the
law he voted against it" reads the
communication. 'Mr. Swanson came
back to the legislature in 1915 as a
state senator. AS a member of the
subcommittee on labor, with Sen.
Baldwin as chairman, he again op-
posed the shortening of hours for
working women.
"He not only opposed the 9-hour
bill for women in committee, in 1915,
but joined with Sen. Baldwin and
Olson in refusing to report the bill
out of committee, thus Tesorting to
the old time legislative trick to kill
legislation.
Even after a majority Of the whole
committee signed to report the bill
out, Sen. Swanson worked to have
members withdraw their signatures.
These tactics were successful The
bin died in committee.
Defeat SwansOn!"

SAM ELLELSON WANTS THIRD
LAWYER IN GAS CASE
When running for mayor last
spring william Hale Thompson pro-
missed the people of Chicago to ap-
point an aldermanic committee to
prosecute the gas rate litigation over
the impounded $4,000, 900 which the
administration contends half-heart-
edly belongs to the people of Chi
cago. The mayor went so far as to
mention the aldermen by name.
When elected he appointed Law
ley. Captain, Nance, Merriam and
Utpatel to serve on that committee.
The committee appointed Donald
Richberg and Glenn Plumb as special
counsel. These two men have won
every step of the case in their fight
with the company. They had the
case transferred from Judge Gibbons.
They had the company ordered to let
the city see its books.
Now Sam EttelsOn, corporation
counsel and one-time corporation
lawyer, wants to put his finger in the
pie. He has approved the vouchers
due to Richberg and Plumb for their
services. He wants a third attorney
on the gas case to report all the
doings to him.

WORKERS AND WAR

WORKERS AND WAR.-Workers,
the parasites of this country is about
to throw this country into war and
they want US workers to go and fight
for them. If this country is to go to
war, it would not be for the benefit
of the working class, but for the ben
eft of the capitalist class. Let the
parasites go and fight their own
wars.
What has this country done for the
working class in the time of peace
for US to fight for it in the time of
war? It has refused to give we work.

part of the so-caIIed Boy Problem is
the matter of unemployment. What
boys do with their spare time is a
matter of real Importance. In or
der to get this information l am Of
fering three prizes, a kodak, a gold
watch and a fountain pen for the
best essays on the subject: What l
Do With My Spare Time.
This contest is open to any boy in
Chicago, but particularly to the boys
of the West Side. The prizes are all
high-grade, standard articles. The
contest will close March %.

gestions and full particulars. The

OBSERVATIONS.-Labor makes
earth fruitful; hence workers should
lack nothing essential to their vel
fare.
Consider no position mental; occu-
pations are necessary or unneces-
sary; abolish the unnecessary.
The dead live because birth is the
beginning of a never-ending career.
Man should not act unjustly, but
resistance is reasonable when right
is disregarded.
Let every mortal have the oppor-
tUnity to study; he has no time for
reflection upon serious problems
whose attention must be concentrat-
ed upon his livelihood.
Workers cannot be too eXacting in
their demands, for those are iII-paid
out of whose labor the least profit is
made.
Artisans must free themselves
from injustice; for those who pursue
ruthless methods will do nothing to

croachments injurious to your per-
sonality.
Tyrants are not confined to the
aristOcracy or the financial class, for
many wOrkmen would part with their
legs to reign over their compeers. A
high position is not requisite to the
practicing of tyranny; a man can act
the tyrant in the humblest sphere. A
tyrant deserves no tolerance no mat
ter to what class he belongs.

VOrs of Unwisdom, for more cIaptrap

A greater being than man is incon-
ceivable. He is mighty; his power is
bOundless. Man cannot thoroughly
analyze himself or others, for he is
unfathOmable whose faculties are
continually unfolding.
GodOlatry is less understandable

Objects cannot be produced by iso-

and was i'm reality in absolute control
of the affairs of the bank.
Witness said he was notified by Smith
OF his election as vice president, but
that he had notice or information Of
his election from no other source He
identified the minute book. and said
he believed he recalled having seen it
in the bank, but that he had never
examined or read its contents. He said
that he had had an opportunity to
examine this book, to the extent that
the privilege of SO doing never had
been denied to him.
Little More Than Figurehead.
He declared that as a vice president
he was little more than a figurehead;
that practically he did as he was di-
rected to do; that his work in the
bank was only a little above the purely
clerical; that while for nearly year
he made the most Of the entries in the
note register, he did not pass on the
loans. He qualified the last statement
by saying that he had passed on
very few loans for his personal friends.
but that his personal guarantee was
behind these loans, and that if they
had not been satisfactory to the bank.
he would have taken them up person
ally. He said that during Smiths alb
sence from the bank, he did not have
the authority of president and did not
act as president.
Gave Securities In Ell PaSO.
Witness told Of one occasion, when
Smith had been taken to Tucumcari.
that the attorney and one of the di-
rectors represented to him that the
credit of the bank with the City
National bank. OF FL Paso, had to be
strengthened. He went to FL Paso, he
said, taking with him Houten notes
which aggregated $4,000 and We're his
own personal property and deposited
them as collateral with the City
National, giving his own note for
S25. 900.
As a result of this move. the City
National extended the credit of the
First State bank S25, 900. After Smith
returned from TucumcarI to Las Cruces.

months prior to the failure Of the bank,
and which he said was attended by the
officers and directors governor Nc

This was not a formal directors
