Patterson Is to Speak.
Several local speakers are to be on
the program, but the main address
is to be delivered by w. p. Patterson
of San Francisco, representing the In
ternational Workers Defense League,
which is yet hoping to secure the free
dom Of Mooney.
Mr.. Patterson arrived in Denver
from the coast today. He carries
credentials from local and central bod
les Of the San Francisco district, and
has been active on behalf Of Mooney
ception Of the now famous San Fran
cisco bomb trials.
Sentenced to Hang August %.
In speaking OF the cases he said:
"The entire labor world has been as
tonished at the actions Of the au-
thorities at San Francisco in remov-
ing Thomas Mooney to San Quentin
penitentiAry, following . final decis-
ion Of the state supreme court re-
fusing \ new trial, where he 10 con-
demned to be hanged on August 2S
next. This action is in line with what
those familiar with this case ex-
pccted, and brings home to the men,
bership Of labor that the big business
interests are fully determined to take
MONEYS life, despite the general be-
lief in his innocence.
when the federal investigation
commission, appointed BY President
Wilson, recommended . new trial for
Mooney, his friends breathed = Sigh
Of relief, ~ Il began to appear that
Justice was about to prevail. The
commission IN its report b the Prssl-
dent pointed out that Objectionable

cattle man, had been an important fac
tor in bringing about Moneys con-
viction, and it further stated that a
grave doubt existed in the minds of
the workers as to regularity of the
defendants conviction.
Upon receipt of the commissions
recommendations and report, the
President Immediately wired the gov
ernor of California requesting a new
trial for Mooney. No notice was taken
Denver labor bulletin. [volume] (Denver, Colo.) 1915-19??, 1918-07-27

of the Presidents appeal for justice.
Two later appeals from the same
source have likewise failed to move
the governor of California to action
on behalf of Mooney.
Fickert as a Prosecutor.
Everyone understands clearly the
reason why Mooney is now being de-
MED q new trial. Fickert, the district
attorney, knows that he cannot Sc
cure another conviction without the
use of perjury, similar to that used
in the first trial, and with the de-
tense organized as it is at present,
perjury is a dangerous game. Flick
ert is too cowardly to take chances
at this stage of the fight.
I'VE have recently unearthed some
interesting data concerning Fickert's
connection with the German dynamite
plots, conducted on the Pacific coast
recently. At the trial of one Crow
ley, charged with conspiring with
Franz Bopp. Teutonic consul at San
Francisco, to destroy allied munitions
of war. Fickert appeared as a witness
for Crowley During the course of the
trial it developed that Fickert had
given the German dynamiter a letter
of Recommendation which was used by
Crowley in his work of destruction.
Rather an interesting connection for a
district attorney who seeks the lives
and liberties of union workers who
dared defy the will Of powerful cor
porations.
Another Appeal to Wilson.
THE battle to save MONEYS life
is now in its last stage. The nation
wide meetings of protest set for Sum-
day, July 2s, will be followed by a
visit to President Wilson by a delega-
ton of prominent Americans, among
them Samuel Gompers, Frank p.
Walsh, Bourke Cochran, Dudley Field
Malone, Edward Knockles and many
others. The President will be asked
to take the entire Mooney case out
Of the hands of the California au-
thorities and deal with the case in the
federal courts as a war measure, as
it is generally known that immeas-
urable damage will be done to the
moral forces needed to make the war
for world democracy q success. It
will also be pointed out that the four
teenth provision of the federal con-
stitution has been violated in the case
Of Mooney and his co-defendants. The
citizen shall be deprived Of his life or
liberty without due process Of law
and a fair trial. which cannot be said
Of the means used to send Billings
to prison for life and Mooney to the
gallows."
Mr.. Patterson, who 10 q member Of
the Brotherhood Of Carpenters, is
fresh from the scene Of action at San
Francisco and will be able to place
before his audience on tomorrow after
noon the very latest Developments Of
the Mooney trials. Every sympa-
tinker in Denver should make IL 4
point to be present and become thor
oily familiar with the big business
'frame-up" on the Pacific coast.

YOU MAY ENCOURAGE THE
ENEMY

~ HE Salem Statesman COM
W< plains at the lack of en-
thusiasm that was mani
fest at a celebration of the
Franco-American victory Fri
day night. Several thousand
people were out for the occasi-
on and a rousing speech was
made but ii drew out scant ap-
plause.
A writer in a Portland pa
per bemoans the fact that dur
ing a recent street parade in
Portland less than half the men
on the streets lifted their hats
to the colors passing.
Too much significance
should not be attached to these
things. Most of those who
fail to lift their hats as the flag
goes by do so out of ignorance
or because they have not yet
acquired the habit. AS to the
Salem speaker it is not fair to
assume that the degree of joy
felt over the allied success was
measured by the applause given
the speech of the evening.
1t is a fact our people are
not demOnstrative. They never
have been and the fact has long
been a source of worry to
many. 1t is no new thing to
find a northwest crowd slow to .
show its emotions and the incl (
dents mentioned do not indi- (
cate that the people are not
spiritedly behind the war.
Oregon is showing its patri-
otism by deeds. With enlist
ments it led the nation; we
were first over the top with the
third liberty loan and with the
war savings stamps quota. D
Such work counts more than
does flag waving and hand
clapping.
The one bad feature of it all
is that your failure to show -,
your feelings or your respect
for the flag may cause some
one to misjudge you. The on
locker may form the opinion
you are not patriotic. The /. j
w. w. or the pro-Hun may
form the notion that our peo-
pie are not enthused over the
war. Don't give them such
opportunities.
