LABOR ENDORSING CRIME.

1t has probably been a surprise to
the American people that labor agi-
tators have not threatened a strike be-

gressman-elect, was sentenced to the
penitentiary for 20 years for treason
able, utterances against the govern
ment when it was at war. Is labor re-
forming or has it overlooked bet?''
1t has been customary for a great
many years for labor agitators to pro-
test every time a notorious criminal is
convicted of some heinous murder,
especially if he be member of any of
the unions, and to declare him inno-
cent and the victim of "capital" and
to, threaten to strike and do all man
ner of silly things if he is not re-
leased
This was true in the case of the Nc
Namara brothers, who blew up the Los
Angeles Times office and murdered 81
innocent men; and it has been the
case with almost every noted murder
in which a member of labor union
was convicted. We had it in the case
of Warren X. Billings and Thomas
Mooney, who murdered 10 persons
and seriously wounded many others
IN the San Francisco preparedness day
parade. We had it when Bill Hay
wood, head of the greatest criminal
organization of modern times, the l.
w w. was sent to the penitehtiary
Is labor reforming or is it learning
that the idle threats they have made
for 20 years get no results? We would
have pretty government if every
criminal case could be decided by
labor strike. Isn't it strange that ap-

THE AFTERNOON PAPER.

THE AFTERNOON PAPER.
Again The Star-Mirror scooped all
north Idaho papers on an important
item of news Through The Associated
Press service Moscow people got a
complete report of President Wilson
sage to the American people after his
visit to European capitals, MorGay.
1.-THE news came direct from Boston to
The Star-Mirror and was read in the
homes of Moscow a few hours after the
meeting in Boston.
This paper was the first in northern
Idaho to give its readers the covenants
of the constitution of the league of
nations and it gave a complete account
of the reading of that memorable doc
ument. Moscow people get the world S
news through their home paper at
least IA hours earlier than they could
get it from any other source
And with the Geographic news while
lit is yet news, they get the news OF
their home town. A Moscow lady, in
telling a lady friend in a neighboring
town of the advantage of an afternoon
daily, said: I'VE do not have to send
out invitations for any of our lodge
or club meetings. We simply tell
one we want to reach before we could
reach them in any other way and it is
so much easier and really more salts
factory and less expensive"

Tons of speeches made by members |
of congress who oppose the league OF

May we be pardoned for reminding
these men that Congressman w. L.. La
Toilette of Pullman, once made a
speech denouncing the war. and the
administration and sent tons of them

trict? Congressman La. Toilette was
overwhelmingly defeated at the last
election. His speech did it.

We would suggest that some of the
politicians who are trying to discredit
and embarrass President Wilson and
retard the work of the peace confer
ence be as brave as the women who
are trying to embarrass Mr.. Wilson
