closed regarding the method of book
keeping employed by Hanks; the
examiner stating that his Careless
ness and negligence have jumbled oc-
counts into a chaotic condition" 1t
was also discovered that second
shortage in his accounts amounting
to $3.50 existed. The report of the
examiner, filed with the state auditor,
created mild sensation when it was
made public in Newark last week,
which was too late for our big Labor
Day issue which was necessarily
printed ahead of time.
Hanks is bonded for the sum of
$1,000 by the American Surety Co. of
New York, and it is dead sure thing
that unless a settlement is effected
that company will bring him to time.
The matter of settlement rests with
the city solicitor, and that gentleman
emphatically states the case will be
adjusted and that the city will not
lose a cent.
What is alleged to be an unwar-
ranted statement in the report was
a claim that Judge Bolton was "short"
$18 and should refund that amount.
The judge states that when fines or
costs were collected by him, which
was sometimes the case, he imme-
diately turned the same over to the
clerk whose duty it was to take charge
of them, and that in one or two in
stances that official had evidently
neglected to make, the proper entry.
In discussing the affair with several
city officials they unanimously de-
clared that Judge Bolton was in no
way connected with the mix-up and
that his name should not have been
mentioned in connection Herewith.

Reap as They Sow
All Who Favored ESCh- -CumminS Bill
Should be Turned Down

When Congress voted to return the
railroads to private banker-speculato
control, gave large subsidies from the
public treasury and set up special
conditions that place the railroads in
preferred position among American
industries, those voting for the legis-
lation deliberately betrayed the best
interests of the nation.
They are directly responsible for
the disturbed condition of commerce
and industry, for loss of millions of
dollars sustained by manufacturers
and shippers; for loss of employment
by hundreds of thousands of Ameri-
can workers, and possibly for wide
spread privation and suffering dur
ing the winter.
They are also responsible for loss
of between $500,0O0,OO0 and $780,
100000 that has been imposed upon.
the American people. They voted an
indirect tax of approximately $500
per year for every American family,
that the railroads might continue the
reckless manipulation and specula-
tion that have made private operation
a dismal failure.
Every men who voted for the Cum
mins-Esch bill must have known just
what would happen when it became
law. If he didn't know, he is untitled
to represent the people. It is the
simple truth that congressman and
senators who voted for railroad legis-
lation did so with full knowledge of
the far-reaching effect of their act.
1t is also true that they voted in con-
temptuous defiance of and wanton
Indifference to the best interests of
the public. They listened to the voice
of Wall street and disregarded the
storm of protest that came from all
sections of the country.
1t comes with poor grace for con-
gressmen who foisted this iniquitous
legislation upon the nation to appeal
to workers and liberal citizens for
continued support and they will be
tested on their records as they relate
to fundamental problems that effect
for good or i'll all the people. Local
or superficial questions do not and
never will indicate the mental bias
of congressman or indicate his re-
action when he faces the crucial test.
How any congressman can, with
brazen effrontery, pretend loyalty to
the public in face of his support of
this monstrous bill passes reasonable
understanding. That one vote, if
there were no other reason, should
mark for defeat every congressman
who is standing for reelection. And
the indications are that it is going to
be barrier to many ambitions. Mil
lions of workers are not going to for
get the men who forgot them whep
they were vainly pleading that some
consideration be given to the public
interest.

MACHINISTS LOCKED OUT

Fairmont, w. Va.-The Mine and
Machine company locked out it's union
machinists when these employees asked
for wage increase and later offered
to arbitrate. The management states
that the men are competent, but it
has been contemplating the establish
ment of the non-union shop and now
is a good time to apply it. Strike
breakers are being employed, with
hired thugs as stage setting for the
well-known drama, protecting the
company's property"
The company's action is in line with
the recent non-union shop declaration
of the local chamber of commerce.

Gains in New Brunswick

Fredericton, New Brunswick, Can.
Officers of the New Brunswick fed
Grafton of labor reported to the an

in amending the workmen's compensa-
tion act, as ordered by the last con-
vention, despite opposition from the
Manufacturers association. The
amended law provides for full medi-
cal, hospital and skilled nursing at
tendance from date of accident, in
creases the amount allowed for fu-
neral expenses to 500, and increases
compensation for permanent partial

Horse Goes Through Window

A spectacular runaway was staged
on South Fourth street Wednesday
afternoon when a blind horse took
fright and dashed through the
window of the Swanson Remedy Com
pany's office, which was occupied by
H. F. Darrow, president of the COM
pany and his stenographer Miss Alice
Prior. Although the horse was heard
before the crash came, they had not
time to leave the room, and their es-
cape was miraculous, neither being
seriously injured although each re-
ceived painful bruises. The office
furniture was demolished before the
animal was secured and led to the
street.

street after a visit in Cleveland. they
discovered the house had been en-
tered by thieves during their absence
and number of valuable articles car
ried away, including a large amount
of silverware and clothing. The in
truders had evidently spent consider
able time in ransacking the premises
and had spent the night there as the
beds had been occupied and cigar
ashes were scattered about the rooms.

work to enforce compliance with
state rule that cannery workers be
paid a minimum of 571a cents an

Bearing Good Fruit
Results in West and South Show Re-
suit of partisan Work

That labor's political efforts against
privilege and reaction are bearing
fruit is evidenced by the results of
primaries conducted in Texas, Mon
tana and elsewhere throughout the
nation. The workers are not meeting
with uniform success everywhere, and
that is not to be expected. Effective
political atcion is based upon intelli-
gent organization, and the toilers
have been at work too short time to
compete successfully with dominant
political machines supported by un-
limited campaign funds and which
have the. advantage that comes of
practically complete control of the
newspapers.
The results in Texas and Montana,
however, are heartening evidence of
what can be done when the workers
are fully aroused. In the first named
state the issue was clear-cut and un-
equivocal. Former Senator Joseph
w. Bailey made his campaign on the
"open shop" issue and opposition to
the eight-hour day. With all his
eloquence and ability, he assaulted the
workers and played upon the hate of
the exploiters. He made his plea to
the farmers, charging that the high
cost of>living resulted from the high
wages paid to workers, but he did not
win many of them to his support.
He is defeated by vote of nearly
$4,000, and his opponent Pat. M. Neff,
crossed the wire because he made his
appeal to the toilers and they believed
his protestations of friendship and
interest.
In Montana a coalition of farmers
and workers made a clean sweep,
nominating candidates for every Of
flee that was contested. They have
captured the democratic party and
are going forward eagerly for the
final struggle in November, when they
will be opposed not only by the re-
dictionaries in the Republican party,
but also by the reactionary democrats
who do not relish the idea of having
men in high places who refuse to do
the bidding of privilege.
In scores of districts throughout the
country the farmers and workers have
made an impression upon primary
contests that will not soon be for
gotten by their enemies. The kept
press may make much of an occa-
sional defeat, but no amount of "play-
ing up" of reverses will disguises the
fact tht the liberal element is making
substantial headway, nor lessen in
any degree the value of the final
victory that is to be won when the
real struggle comes.
If the workers, in a few short
months, can accomplish so much, what
may they not gain when they have
perfected their organizations and es-
tablished an enlightened self-interest
among those in whose interest this
contest for decency and justice is be-
ing waged? All power rests with
the toilers, political as well as eco
nomic, and when they are determined
that this shall be a government of,
for and by the people, reaction will
be checked and privilege will be COM
PEELED to give way for thenew order.
