obvious is stated, namely, that a mans
labor is not commodity, but part OF
his life, and that, therefore, the courts
must not treat it as if it were commod-
ity, but must treat it as if it were
part of his life. l am sorry that there
were any judges in the United States
who had to be told that. 1t is, so OBJ

Students of history may search wide
and deep, they may spend many years
of keen research and nowhere in the
pages of American history will they find

Woodrow Wilson on July 4, 1916.
Justice Hughes Record.
You may also ask for the record of
the Honorable Charles Evans Hughes,
Republican nominee for President, as to
labor measures, and particularly as to
the Danbury Hatters case.
The Danbury Hatters' case has an his
torical place in Labors struggle for free
dom. 1t was in the course of the trial
of this case that the workers of Our
country finally succeeded in securing
declaration from the highest court of
the land as to the application of anti
trust legislation to associations of wage
earners.
The decision of the court in this case
involved a principle of fundamental i'm
portance to workers. 1t was the same
principle involved in the abuse of the
writ of injunction which, under the per-
version by judges, who had no under
standing of industrial conditions and the
labor of human beings had been trans
formed into an agency at the service OF
employers who wished to restrict the
industrial freedom of their employees
and to prevent their using legitimate
methods of securing their demands and
promoting their welfare.
The theory upon which courts have
held that Antitrust legislation applied
to associations of wage-earners and that
injunctions could be used to regulate in
dustrial relations, which are personal
relations, was the assumption that the
labor of human being was an article
or a commodity and, therefore, properly
This assumption recognizes no distinc-
ton between the creative labor power of
human being which is inseparable from
his living body and the articles which he
produces.
In 1908 the Supreme Court of the
United States rendered decision in the
Hatters' Case when the initial appeal
was made.
In 1914 the United States Supreme
Court delivered their final decision in the
case and sustained the contentious of
the lawyers of the Anti-Boycott Asso-
citation which instigated suit against the

DEAR SIR AND BRoTHER-4our favors
OF July II and July 26 addressed to Mr.
Frank Morrison, Secretary Of the Amer

turned over to us for reply. In your
favor of July II you ask:
will you kindly give us the labor

it is doubtful il man of his men,

The officials report that most Of
the points lost were on measure
ments. A great majority Of these
children are too full in the chest for
their height, this no doubt being on
account of the high altitude causing
deep breathing. This would not be
a defect but would throw them out of
proportion. The only child over six
months who scored perfect in meas
urements is Dewitt Murl Hunsinger,
age II months.

There are still few county Offices
for which no one has filed on the
Democratic ticket. It's getting near
time for the candidates to shy their
millinery into the arena If they in
tend to do so for this campaign, and
we don't like to see any of the offices
go begging for aspirants. There is
a good chance for Democratic sue
cess this year and complete ticket
should be presented to the voters
