SOME OF DETAILS OF l. W. W. TRIAL

CHICAGO, Aug 6-The fate of the syndicalist movement in Ameri- ca, the government cOntended, rest ed on the outcome of the trial of 101 leaders of the Industrial Work rupt the nations war program, which began in federal court here on April l before Judge Keneshaw Mountain Landis.
 The indictment against 165 men and one woman, Elizabeth Gurley 1917, grand jury, charged the prac- tice of sabotage, including the slowing down of production and the wanton spoilage of material, propa- ganda for strikes to delay the out put of war munitions, and convert instrigue against military service. Forty of the indicted leaders, sensing the Governments inten- tions after the sensational nation wide-raid and confiscation of records on September 5, preceding the in dictment, fled from the country or went into hiding and escaped cap ture Mise Flynn and two other de- fendants were granted separate trials, and the charges against a number of others were dismissed for lack of evidence.
 The five counts in the indictment specifically charged violation of the espionage act, the section of the criminal code prohibiting interfer- ence with the civil rights of citi- zens, the selectinb service act, the conspiracy and the postal laws The maximum penalty for conviction all five counts is 31 years in prison and $1O, ,OOO fine.
 From the first day, when the group of defendants, some wear ing long boards, the flowing tie of the poet, or sporting fancy waist coats, filed into court under heavy guard, until final summing up to the jury, the defense laid special stress on the contention that the l.. w. w. had no interest whatever in the war.
 "Our social system is on trial, asserted George F. Vanderveer, chief counsel for the defense. "The l. w.. w. is concerned wholly in one aim the betterment of social condi- tions This aim is sought by indus trial instead of political methods.
 From all corners of America the Government summoned witnesses 10 substantiate charges that the l. w.. w. created a reign of terror in every section where the organization boast ed strength, that the members were under pledge to wreck industries through the practice of sabotage that. the established laws were over-ridden and that after America began war on Germany general conspiracy to upset the country s war plans was entered into.

Editors Letter Box
Mr.. PattaneaIl Bobs Up.


Editor kennebec Journal:
Your readers recognize tho i'm
portance of ascertaining who. if any
body, is responsible for the coal short
age and undoubtedly appreciated your
editorial Of Tuesday, entitled Does
Anybody Remember" in which you
argue that the trouble comes from Sec
rotary Baker having fixed a price on
coal so low as to limit production.
But on Page 10 of the same issue, in
the column headed State House, an in
terview with Governor Milliken APP
pears in which the Governor says:
1T is purely matter of transporta-
ton. Coal can be produced faster
than it can be handled by the vessels
and railroads. Business seems to have
outgrown our transportation facili-
ties"
Governor Millillen is supposed to be
an authority on the coal situation and
it is disappointing and somewhat con
fusing to find him disagreeing with You
in diagnosing the cause of the short
age. In view of his statment do you
not feel like reconsidering your latest
criticism OF Secretary Baker?

A Real Move Toward Free Germany

received by this and other newspapers
in these days of critical stage of ma
tional affairs. This woman writes:

outraged by your recent commonsense

Our reader will remember that in all
our comments upon the logic Of events.
we have taken into consideration the
probability of temporary suppression
OF any uprising in Germany at this
time, but we have maintained and still
believe, that such suppression Of the
masses cannot last long, nor can it be
destroyed. In fact. We have more hope
in the action Of the war masters in
the past few days than we should have
had had they made seuerous con-

cessions to the masses. Indeed. they
have taken precisely the course we
should have preferred them to take in
tieing dowa the safety valve of a
boiler already under higher pressure
than the metal can be expected to
stand. They have taken precisely the
right course to embitter the masses
ard to increase the spirit of revolt by
attempting to suppress it in way
that proves to the masses the govern
ment's Intolerance of any interference
with, or questioning of, its course.
A dispatch from Amsterdam, Hol-
land, Of Tuesday, says:
THE Telegraafs frontier, correspond
ent says that the measures taken py tne
German officials against the strike lead
ers in Germany evoked great discomfort
among the German soldiers in Flanders
The correspondent adds that in manN
cases the soldiers have melted Belgian
laborers who have been forced by the
Germans to work to so on strike.
Nothing could better demonstrate
the logic of events and tendencies
than this. When government turns
upon its own people with a vicious
snarl and menaces them with the same
rendng and tearing processes which
they have seen it infiet upon weaker
foes, then the people get new insight
into the nature of their government
And right here we must consider
that the millions Of Germany's con-
scriptive horde are of the people whom
the government is threatening to turn
them upon.
A people plying their government,
while protesting it's course, is vastly
different proposition to contend with
than is a people learning to hate their
government, because of oppression and
il on handed methods in meeting their
protests and requests.
No act Of Germany since the war be-
gan has been so productive of progress
toward a free German people" as has
this act of suppression by the mailed
! fist of the bread and peace" demands
of the masses, presented as strikes in
war industries.
/ Thus the German war masters have
leo their dupes down to the river of
blood, restitution, and death, but the
dupes can now be made to drink only
! tc the capacity of their stomachs.
! When death menaces from govern
ment foes are no worse than the men
ances of the government itself, then
the breaking point is near.
If the metal of GermanSs overhead

pered and made more tenacious by
generation Oh generation of the mailed
fist, by suppression of the public's acts
and thoughts. and by the doctrine OF

longer than might be expected of any
other people, even then, we may eX-
pect the grand explosion al almost any

itics that has come down from the
