LAWLEsS "COSSACKS"
CLUB MEN AND WOMEN

Scranton, Pa-The state cOnstabu-
larry. known as "cossacks," is blamed
for rioting at Wilkes-Barre.
Street car men have been on strike
for several months, and that town is
the scene of numerous outbreaks by
Waddell strikebreakers, guards and
the state constabulary The Wilkes
Barre correspondent to the Scran-
tonian says:
"One would really be led to believe,
if he was to pay attention to the
preachers of law and order, that to
refuse to ride on sCab-manned cars.
or refuse to be beaten up by a Wad-
dell thug, was a crime and that the
authorities should take some action
against all such offenders. But as
bad as the Waddell crew of hired
thugs are, the county today is in
tested by a more daring band, and the
very lives and liberties of the citizens
ar emenaced by a horde of irrespon-
sible chaps who wear the badge of
the state and go about armed to the
teeth looking for and provoking
trouble.
THAT the city and county is
menaced by a lawless horde, there is
no denying. That state, county and
city authorities seem to be linked
with the traction company in the eff
fort to drive the strikers back to
work and compel the people to ride
the scab-manned cars, there is very
little reason to doubt
But the lawlessness and disorder
that breaks out in spots hereabouts
could be checked if the county and
city authorities but did their duty.
Insead of a sheriff sending for addi-
tonal state troopers to protect the
iawless horde that is now here, he
with the mayor, should take action to
rid the community of the gunmen and
thugs that go about beating up peo

GUESSING WHAT
HUGHES MIGHT Do

4ii
Washington, June What will
he do IL he gets it?v was the ques-
tion every one was asking today. in
considering the likelihood Of the
nomination OF Justice Hughes by the
republicans.
PreAleated on the supposition that
Hughes will accept, there we're many
conjectures as to whether he viii
immediately resign from the supreme
court and leave opinions he has clean
ed up to be ready next Monday, or
win merely announce his resignation
to take efTect some time after Mon
day. None believe he would delay
his resignation a second longer than
he felt was necessary under the Law.
The matter as to whether justice
could resign and his opinion be- read
afterward. would be entirely within
the Jurisdiction Of the chief justice.
For the first time since the repub-
lican convention began there was
plainly apparent an atmosphere Of
|tenseness at the Hughes household.
Telephone queries have been always
politely but innocuously answered.
Suggestions that arrangements be
made for the newspaper men to keep
a dog watch" at the house up to
today. met with polite, but firm, re-
fnsal.
