Woolen Mills? Who said they were

IT is said that girl who is scab-

flashed check for a hundred dol

from the firm and was told that

scabbing received check for like

of the firm, but we Do want to say

Is to get back In after getting out
too far.

THE Republican News In Its
spasms this week takes especial
rap at Sheriff Frank Pepper and
his deputies for their actions at the
Wooden Mills last Friday night.
We don't know why they do this
unless Ii Is because some one has
ordered somebody to be raped aud
the Sheriff and his deputies just
came to the mind of the editor of
the R-N. II there is anything that
the Sheriff is deserving of it is
praise for the manner in which he
handled the situation, not condem-
nation.
What would the RN have him
do? Would it suggest that the
Sheriff and his two deputies try to
control a crowd of twenty hve hun
dred people, scattered around a
whole block. 1t seems TO us that
the Sheriff, when he saw that the
crowd was too much for himself
and his small force to handle, did
the next wisest thing there was fol
him to do, when he counseled the
removal of the cause of the disturb
ance. Remove the cause and trou-
BILE is ever avoided.
Aud we want to add right here
that the girls who were in the mil
on that night were not the cause OF
the distur bance. 1t is claimed that
there were at least FIVE men in the
mill on that night, imported here
from strike breaking agency II
Cincinnati. Whether this is true
or not, we'll leave it to Messrs
Shuler and Benninghofen o answer
rumor had it so aud that's what
caused the trouble The demand
for the removal OF the girls was fol
their own good and they ought II
appreciate il as such
There is no community going t
stard for the importation in theil
midst OF lot of gunmen, thugs
and thieves. commonly called strik
breakers without protest, we are
very much surprised If it Is true
that the Shuler and Beuning hofer
company would call on this clas'
OF men to operate or guard thei
mills. Knowing the gentlemen 0
this firm as We do, we are surprised
that they would countenance th'
bringing into our city, men of thi
caliber and character even thougl
it meant the closing down of thei
mills
Again we say that Sheriff Franl
Pepper is deserving of praise an
not condemnation.

lieve the best, if not the only practical
plan, is the federal incorporation OF

make incorporation hereunder COM
pulsory, thus imposing on all railroad
companies throughout the United
States the same corporate powers and
