on at the Hamilton Machine Tool COM
pany's plant and which cards they
have legal right to post. One of the
brutes, R. L. King, the watchman

just a few weeks ago for threatening
to shoot the heads off of some of the
pickets. Judge Kautz warned King
at the time that he was lucky that
there was no more serious charge
placed against him. At the hearing
before Judge Kautz on Tuesday morn
ing, two of the defendants were bound
over to the grand jury and the third
dismissed for want of evidence. Bell

NATIONAL
BRUTEs TURNED LOOSE

The most vicious assault that has
occurred during all the industrial strife
which has existed during the past
several years in Hamilton was the one
committed on Joe Bell, union ma
chinist, in the vicinity of the Hamilton
Machine Tool company on last Monday
by several strikebreakers and a watch
man employed by that company. They
beat Bells face into jelly, breaking
his nose and causing other injuries
which required several stitches by a
physician to close up. They beat
Bell so as to make him unrecognizable
by his closet friends. All this was
done simply because Bell protested
against the thugs tearing down cards

Uncle Sam has given out the word
that he has 100 street cars on his
hands that he is willing to sell at a
bargain. He asks $1,000 apiece for
them. 1t has been suggested that
the local street car company get busy
and buy one or two of them and add
them to their already great number
of three or four cars and improve the
service. AS far as the local company
is concerned, the price of these cars
might just as well be $11, 900, 100000
apiece, they would buy just as many,
While we are on this subject, we note
that city council is going to send a

only to knock few street car men
out of jobs or really to secure better
service. However, anything, so that
we get better service. The workers
are willing to make any sacrifice to
that end. We have sneaSing idea
that all the good the city is going to
get out of it is paying the expenses

What is the use of the union men GO
ing into court and complaining when
they are beaten up if the thugs and
bruisers are only punished by NOM
inal fine or bound over to the grand
jury. If fined, the company will pay
it SO that they really receive no pun
ishment and are only encouraged tc
keep up their brutal work. Is it to be
wondered at if the union men take
these cases in their own hands and
mete out the proper punishment? A
few jail or workhouse sentences would
be more effective.
These scabs and strikebreakers
have been bound over to the grand
jury by Judge Kautz and organized
labor of Hamilton is going to keep a
close watch on the proceedings to the
end and see what justice is measured
out. Past experiences has taught or
ganized labor however, that they can't
look for very much justice in this
county.

If you happen to stroll along High
street near Second, you will notice an
electric sign hanging in front of the
Frechtling building over the new Ship
per jewelry store. This large sign has
been hanging in that position ever
since DR.. Stewart secured a temporary
injunction from Judge Harlan to keep
Shipper from placing the sign on the
building. What we would like to
know is, how long will this sign re-
main suspended in the air by that
rope? Three weeks have passed and
we hear no decision on the. case.
Guess it will hang there until some

daily steal thousands of machines.
There is not week passes but what

of the thieves have been landed by the
local police and with the goods on
them, but when they were tried in our
courts were set free because in the
meantime they dug up some fimsy

money to buy one to take their family

WELCOME-AND WORK

Soldiers returning to civil life will
6nd fully % much welcome extended
to them 90 they have been led to ex-
pect In accounts Of communities pre-
pairing TO assiuilate their soldiers In
to industrial and commercial activity.
There may crop out instances Of un-
grateful, unpatriotic employers who
will fail to zee IN the new civilian the
sacrifice and achievement Of the SOL
der which demands cordially and q
helping hand But such instances, #
they appear, viii be isolated, and only
60 70 prove the general spirit OF well
come prevailing In the United States.
Those men who have fought over
seas, and those who have given serv-
Ice Ia the training camps IN this eoun-
Try, will have more to offer to their
employers than when they went away
to war. The fortunate ones who are
their own employers viii, equally 90,
have more to aid themselves in their
respective methods of earning q live
ihood.
All men either progress or retro
grade. Either they pass the corner Of
uncertainty and step successfully
ahead, or they despair of overcoming
obstacles and fail to advance from
then on. Beset by seeming difficult
ties, they forget that ones own in
ward determination-the intelligence
which thinks constructively can buoy
them up and help them to rise above
distractions in the business of life.
Probably many men were at this
critical juncture when the army called
them into service. Unquestionably
the army has helped to eliminate this
sense OF lack-eon6dence which de-
TERED their steps. And those who had
not-yet encountered the crisis in af-
fairs which somtimes weakens the
will until it is burdened with q sense
of defeat, undoubtedly win be able to
meet and to master any misgivings as
to their ability to progress.
For military discipline and methods,
