IndustriaI Liberty.

Industrial liberty. like civil liberty, must rest upon the solid foundation of law. Disregard the law in either, how ever good your motives, and you have anarchy. The plea of trades unions for immunity, be it from injunction or from liability for damages, is as fall lacious as the plea of the lynchers. If .lawless methods are pursued by trades unions, whether it be by Yio- lence. or by intimidation or by the more peaceful. Infringement of legal tights, that laWlessness must be put down at once and at any cost. Louis D ErucGeiS .>-

O''imet Outplays
Cuilford; Regains
Mass. Golf Title

WINCHESTER. Mass. July l2.-
Francis Ouimet regained the amateur
golf championship OF Massachusetts,
which he last held in 1915, by easily
defeating Jesse Gulford the title
holder, by 8 and in the 36-hole final
at the Winchester Country Club to-day.
Both golfers are members Of the Wood
land Golf Club.
The match was disappointing to a
large gallery, as Gulford did not play
up TO his usual standard and Ouimct
gained commanding lead so early in
the match that the competition was
never keen. AT the end of the morn
ing play Ouimet was five up. and at
the turn of the afternoon round he had
increased the lead to seven holes.
Ouimet's morning card was rs. He
played the bye holes in the afternoon
and got T8. Cuiford used 81 in the
morning and was AZ to the turn in the
afternoon.
The tournament marked the return
of Ouimet to amateur golf competition
in the East. as it vas his first oppor-
tunity to play in such an event since he
was reinstated by the United States
Golf Association. He will play in the
national amateur championship at
