OUR BIRTHDAY

This week we celebrate our birth
day anniversary. Nineteen years ago
this week we budded forth, proud, yet
with much trepidation and misgiving,
determined but not so sure. Our
friends 90 gave US six months, but
long before the expiration of that
time we wondered at their liberality
as many dark days loomed before US,
and sometimes it looked like we were
to die a-bornin', but we simply hitch
ed up another loop in the belt, gritted
our teeth and went forward, and here
we are bigger and stronger, growing
every day and telling the news Just
as we see it. We have just been
working on toehold, we are getting
a foothold, and watch US grow
Thanks for the congratulations.

ToBEY AND THE open SHOP"

TOBEY AND THE Open SHOP"
What is the real purpose and who
is back of Tobey in his delving for
information on the "open shop"
movement that is being boosted by
some of the big employers down in
Texas, where before the days of Lin
coin slavery was the real thing The
old saying that @blood will tell'' seems
to be coming to the fore in this IN
stance The slave-driving blood Of
the Texas employers is oozing to the
top. They hope by the open shop
method to bring in the dirty Mexi-
can greasers and the poor uneducated
negro to compete with white labor.
1t would mean cheap labor, long
hours and low pay.
What does Tobey and his cohorts
intend doing should they succeed in
their scheme? Do they propose to
bring in a lot of this Mexican and
negro labor? But we don't believe
there is any one in with Tobey on
the job We believe he is going it
alone We don't believe there is
man in town who thinks 50 little
of the city's good interests and vel
fare as to attempt to start something
that will bring as much suffering and
misery to our citizens as would the
plan that this man Tobey has in mind
il it were to succeed. We believe that
1'obey is only doing this for the pur-
pose Of making a grandstand play

Hamilton Daily News and on which
