to do this. We wanted a Peoples Com

Omaha, backed solely by this class In
stead of the big moneyed interests as
would have been the case had we taken
the route of organizing stock company

Idaho Press Notes
APPARENT MOTIVES AC-
TUATING THE /. w. w.

There have been many and per
sistent accusations that the industrial
troubles which the members of the
I. w. w. organization have been TO-
menting in the lumber, copper an6
coal districts and which they threaten
to carry into the harvest districts
have been paid for with German
money. AS far as known, however
no evidence to his effect has been
adduced. Germany has made, as has
been shown in court proceedings,
profligate and foolish uses of its
money in instigating conspiracies in
this country and in conducting a
crude and sterile sort of propaganda
designed to create domestic discon-
tent with the course of the national
government. But German fatuity is
scarcely illimitable, and it would be
so If German money were being ex-
pended in this country to induce men

habit and the impulse of disloyaIty.
The mission of the Industrial
Workers of the World is one of war
fare against the existing organization
of society. Disloya1ty to the country
is made necessary by the fealty which
they yield to the doctrines of their
sect Theirs is a philosophy against
the established order. They not only
practice violence, but profess it and
attempt to justify it. So perverted is
the doctrine they subscribe to that 1T
is probable most of them would pre-
fer to be- called traitor than pa
triot. Patriotism, in the sense it is
commonly understood, is in their esti
nation treason to the organization
into which the have formed them
selves. They are the modern Ishmael-
ties. Their doctrines constitute a
declaration of war against organized
government and the institutions which |
it has developed and glorified the
Institutions of majority rule, of civil |
and criminal codes, of property, of |
family, church, and the like and |
that declaration they execute when
ever opportunity seems to make exc

They are disloya1 without being
necessarily traitors - the distinction
being made by the circumstance that
heir mfschievous and inflammatory
operations are inspired by spirit of
hostility to the government, but not,
20 far as there is any evidence, by a
spirit of preference or adherence to

word of mouth or writing, is a felony
punishable as in this Act otherwise
provided.
