ANOTHER ATTEMPT AT
JUDICIAL MURDER

In New England, an attempt is
being made to kill, through the
agency of the courts, two fighters
in the ranks of labor, Nicola Sacco
and Bartolomeo Vanzetti. After a
seven weeks trial in a Massachu-
sets court a prejudiced jury brought
out the verdict of guilty. The tes-
timony of Oman in the Mooney
trial looks honest in the face OF
some of the contradictory, lying tes-
timony on which the two Italians
have been found guilty. At every
point the defense evidence out
weighed the prosecution, but the
jury learned in the course of the
trial that both men had been active
for the last ten years in various
strikes of their countrymen, and
brought out a verdict contrary tc
the evidence. Even conservative pa
pers like the Boston American cal
the evidence most unconvincing.
The trial was conducted in an at
mosphere of armed guards and ter
ror, so as to impress the jury with
the lie that the defendants were
dangerous characters"

per cent dividend. With remark
able foresight, the Spectator
bankers who dominate the railroad
situation have made provision for
dividend requirements long before
the real need for them arrives.
The easy grace with which they
consented to a postponement Of
final action until after Congress
reconvenes is abundant evidence
that the plea that funds were re-
quired to get the railroads in shape
was put out for public consumption,
to make it easier for subservient
congressman to Justify their betray-
al of their constituents.
Let this deal be understood for
what it is. 1t is a fragrant and
deliberate mis-appropriation of the
public's money, at a time when the
nation is straining every financial
resource to make ends meet. 1t
takes from the treasury a half
billion dollars when treasury notes
in reams are being passed over to
bankers. 1t puts the government
behind a small interest at the sac
rifice of all the rest of the peo-
pie.
Congressman will have right
sounding fairy tales for the people
back home, but it will be proven
again, as it was shown when the
full iniquity of the Cummins- Esch
act was revealed, that Conrgess, as
now constituted, is simply an adj
iunct to Wall street, registering its
will with such painful regularity
that there is a danger irreparable
injury will be done before the pub.
lie has it's innings.
Congress has sacrificed the ma.
tional interest, turned it's back upor
the farmers and millions of un
employed workers, has neglected
everything that it might CONSOLE
date it's attention upon the rail
road problem, which is a problem
only in the sense that certain in
terests are seeking to gain every
thing they covet without being
compelled to go to the length o.
physically breaking into the ma
tons treasury.

The Religion of Work

Work, the privilege of applying
| ones self in constructive effort
is the greatest blessing any person
can enjoy. To do this in an ideal
environment is a very great pleas
ure, and to know that the greatest
benefit possible is coming from the
application Of the fruit of ones
efforts is comparable only to that
feeling which the Deity could have
realized when he finished the
Allegorical Task and pronounced
His work good.
1t has been said that men hate
work so long as they are COM
/ PEELED to do it as a necessity, but
rich man finds in it his only
enjoyment. Let US therefore study
into the reason of work and, hav-
ing mastered the relation its mys-
terry holds to our being, see to it
that we no longer allow others to
dominate over US because of our
striving to get away from the very
work which should be our greatest
source of benefit and pleasure.
Once we have the correct view
point, the right attitude in our
relations with each other results.
Labor organizations will then make
their chief end greater efficiency
of their members and will pride
themselves in grading the member
ship according to individual merit
and ability Employers who un-
derstand the necessity of whole
some ideals about work are untrue
to their own best interests when
they set examples that disturb the
minds Of men whose efficiency and
natural bent run in the direction
of craftsmanship, agriculture, etc,
rather than in that Of executive
ability and acquisitiveness.
Let our ideal be how can l take
care of my own needs and services
with my own hands and not how
can l get most or all with little
or nc work. Be a litter not a
leaner, a help not a hindrance to
the social order of which you are
Part.

The Damned Thing Passed the
House
(By Charles M. Kelley


The bill giving $5OO,OOO, 900 to the
railroads, for no better reason than
that the railway managers asked
for it, has been approved by the
House of Representatives. When
it came from committee House
leaders sidet, acked a mass of i'm
portant legislation and gave it's ex-
elusive attention to a subject that
at best will benefit but a small
group of citizens.
No opportunity was presented for
free discussion of the merits of
this colossal raid upon the treas
ury, consideration being confined to
four hours. The opposition was
gagged while the proponents of the
measure drove it through under
whip and spur.
There was time, however, for a
few clear-thinking members of Con-
gress to tear away the cloak of
hypocrisy and misrepresentation
that has obscured the real object
of this grant. All pretense that
it was intended to help the I'M
employment situation was aban-
doned by its supporters when they
were given a chance to prove their
good faith with the public.
The suggestion was made that it
be made a condition of this sub
sidy that it shall be expended, in
part at least, in repairing the rail
roads motive power and for main
tenance, that the carriers may be
in shape to meet the nations trans
portation needs when called upon to
do so. This proposal did not reach
first base, however, for the gen
tlemen who engineered the deal
knew that the managers do not
intend to make use of the govern
ment's generosity for any such pur-
pose. The money is to aid specu-
lation, to give the bankers and
other insiders new lease on riot
Gus contracts and CRAFTS.
Further, the Senate has post
poned action on the bill until after
recess, which will put it off until
the middle Of October, at the very
earliest. The prospects are that 1t
will not have final action until
after the first of the year. That,
of course, precludes the possibility
that the money that is to be made
available can be devoted to any
constructive program. What is
done to improve transportation con-
ditions and also the condition of
millions of workers must be done
at once. January will be too late
to rescue either the railroads or
their employees. The managers
are aware of this fact and so are
Congressman, but they follow
through with their game of make
believe and expect the public to
fall for it, without protest.
Thomas Dewitt Cuyler, president
of the Association of Railway
Executives, let the "cat out of the
bag" the other day when he stated
that the railroads were not MAX
ing the return guaranteed by the
Cummins-Esch bill. When the year
is ended the carriers will be just
about $500,000,000 short of the
sum needed to pay an average

MORE MILK THAN EVER
AND PRICES GOING UP

The Seattle Star Of last Monday
says:
Although dairy herds in the State
Of Washington are producing more
milk than ever before, Seattle dis
tributors predicted Monday a raise
in prices to consumers.
Frank W. Kehrli, assistant dairy
extension specialist Of the Washing
ton State College at Pullman, re-
ports the average yield per COW per
month throughout the state is S34
pounds, or nearly 300 quarts Of
milk and 341 pounds Of butterfat
Kehrli's report is based upon
tests made during July on 4,093
cows in every county of the state.
But, due to the fact, say distrib-
utors, that in the last few days
milk has raised from s218 per 100
pounds wholesale to $3.50. prices to
the consumer must soon be raised.
Ar the new price the distribu-
tors are paying three cents a gal
Jon more than at the old price.
