SMASH THE CHI. PHONE co. SAYS JOHNSON
OTHER DOINGS OF CHI. FED. OF LABOR

Union labor's neglect of union
labor was a prime subject of discus
sion. Delegate after delegate told
how union men, even federation del
egates, it was said, not only neg
lected to insist upon the union label
on things they buy, but often actually
insisted on nOn-union made articles.
The cigarmakers' union has put
checkers in front Of loop stores and
found union. men fiocking to stores
which do not handle label cigars
while stores that feature union goods
are neglected. Cigermakers plan to
snap pictures of union men entering
nOn-union cigar stores. These pic
lures will be exhibited at federation
meetings.

would have won their strike long ago
or could win it yet if union men
would act, Elizabeth Maloney said.
Walters complained of lack of mo-
raj aid from union men. in the fight
on the Bismark hotel, which is be-
ieVed to have been picked by the
Hotel Keepers assn for a test fight
on the union.
A printer inquired what one could
expect when union men would not
even buy a union-label newspaper
that fought the battle of labor, but
instead supported the trust papers
which are ready to throttle labor.
Reported that because of failure
Of other building trades unions to
give moral support, civil engineers
union might have to pass out of ex-
istence after long hard fight for life.
BroOmmakers and BARRIERS de-
clared they had been greatly aided
by union man demanding the union
card in the barber shop and his wife
declining to buy a broom unless it
bore the union label.

Chicago, to smash every other pub
lie utility that picks your nfckles and
dollars to pay dividends on watered
stock! Deliver the first blow through
the city taking over the Automatic
Telephone Co.
Such was the sermon preached at
the meeting of the Chi Fed. of
Labor yesterday by Morton L. John
son, pres. Penny Phone league, and
his listeners roared approval.
When Johnson finished his talk the
federation by unanimous vote adopt
ed his resolution calling upon Mayor
Thompson and city council to employ
Judge Stephen A. Foster as special
legal representative of the city if the
forfeiture case goes into court, as it
is almost certain to.
Corporation Counsel Ettelson,"
said Johnson, was until he got the
job as chief legal representative of
the city a member of the firm of
Schuyler, Ettelson & Winfield, which
firm was the legal representative of
the Automatic Telephone Co. Ettel-
son will probably call himself dis
qualified and ask for Walter Fisher
to be appointed special attorney in
his place.
you know Walter Fishers record.
This hired man of the Chicago Daily
News has already held the forfeiture
clause invalid! We don't want any
more of Fisher. We got quite enough
of him when he bUnked us in the
street car franchise deal.
"The city is now quite efficiently
operating a $75O,OOO police phone
system of its own. 1t can as. eff
GENTLY operate a commercial tele-
phone system. In 1919 the Chi.
Telephone Co.'S rate comes up for re-
vision. Let us have a municipal tele-
phone system by that time to use as
a club in getting good rates. Let us
have city-owned telephone in every
Chicago home at a penny call. 1t

BOARD TO HOLD
 NIGHT SESSION

Most of the work of the Faulkner county board of equalization will be done at night, is was decided this morning when the board met for it's first session. Both Wiley Mosley and H. Robinson, members of the board, are merchants whose business require their attention at this time of the year, and Chairman A. s. Sowell of Saltillo, the third member agreed with them that they would meet late each afternoon and work until late at night.
 Whether or not a thorough revis- ion of the real and personal assess ment will be made by the board is as yet uncertain. The members have expressed the opinion that such a revision ought to be undertaken, but the task is so great they may decide to follow the custom of preceding boards and adopt the valuations as fixed by the county assessor. Chair man Sowell said he would not favor raising any real estate without noti- flying the property owners affected and giving them chance to be heard.

Sheriff Sherman Ely, of Lima,
Ohio, is man among men, and
deserves both Carnegie medal and
a place for his name in the Hall of
Fame. Grim determination to do
the right thing is an ever-prevailing
trait of this man Ely's nature, and
when mob of murderous se.oun-
drels tried to take a prisoner from
him not long ago, he saved his
man, but came near being lynched
himself, the lynchers putting a rope
around his neck and choking him
until his tongue protruded from his
mouth beating him shamefullv, and
last, but not least, causing his dear
little daughters death. Now mind
you, dear reader all of this savaeery
happened in Lima, city in Ohio ,one
of the greatest states of the Union,
and In the face of it all, America
has the gall unfathomable to make
representation to Turkey about her
brutality to Armenians. No Won

are notable exceptions, } and their
