Era of Bloodshed

Still bloodsfed is the modern
fad, my protests don't avail in
almost every little grad some
slayers are in Jail. All kinds of
folks behind the bars are locked,
for CORY deeds; famed clergy
men and movie stars, and danes
in widows weeds. The furies,
free and running loose, urge
crime with every breath, and
any frivolous excuse will do for
sudden death. When all the
nations were at strife, and gents
slew scores of gents, men
learned to think that human
life is not worth fifteen cents.
They carried back this grim be-
lief from scenes of death and
gore; and this delusion, fraught
with grief. has spread from
shore to shore. And SO we hear
the crack of guns throughout
this country wide, and every.
Gay we're planting tons of dele
gates who died. The husband
shoots his loving wife because
she wears pink lids. and grand
ma takes the butcher knife when
she'd correct the kids. The
wires are burdened with the
news of murders and of brawls,
not in the alleys and the news.
but in the stately halls. And
men Outstanding 60 to Jail, and
queenly DANES are there; and
all my protests don't avail-ex-
planning my despair. We're
wasting force on little things,
denouncing minor flaws, while
yet the armed assassin springs,
and laughs to scorn our laws.

To the Editor of the Avjs.
Dear Sir;

Permit me to say through your
columns that there are certain men here
VINO are trying to palm themselves off as
the friends of the people and the friends
OF Mr.. jackson, the founder of the St.
CroIx Labor Union, knowing we'll that
they are not.
They do have a temporary and transit
tory connection with that institution of
which connection they are now trying to
take the latest and most mean advan
tage.
They are using the name and reputa-
ton OF the Founder of the Labor Union
as we'll as their dubious attachment to
the same for political effect.
But they have clearly demonstrated
themselves as traitors to him and to the
institution which he has founded.
The two men referred to in print as the
Unions legal officers, who have put
themselves forward as candidates for
this election are not in harmony with that
institution nor are they in harmony at
this time with its founder. They are
taking advantage of his absence to cut
him out of everything they can, inside
and outside of the Labor Union. Politics
included. They know that after his re-
turn here they won't have a ghost of a
showing before the public far less before
the members of the labor union as an
institution. Once they get into the Coun-
Gil they are in so it is their game to get
in by any means fair or foul,
Why does not Chabert tell the Labor
Union members and the public Natives
and aliens that he and the founder have
split because of his unconstitutional and
unprincipled actions as President of the
Labor Union.
Why does not Chabert tell his friend
'Native' about that stern and "harmo-

the north of March telling him that he
('Chabert') was resi0njm6 from, the 5 ls

But he has not resigned nor have the
others resigned because it suits them to
make capital Of their positions in the
Cnion to deceive and to impose upon the
people They are playing politics and
oiuflng the Labor Union Members un-
I'll the day when they will be in a position
70 give them more direct insults than
they leave given them in the past at
thelf public and private meetings.
AS a man and also as acting Editor
OF a !oeal paper | am perfectly within
my rights to express my opinion on
any matter concerning the public well
fare.
Neither the President of the Labor
Union Nh, R. de Chabert nor the Attor-
ney o. c. Granady are fit and preper
persons to be put forward as represen-
tatlves OF the people. Men, who have on
SeYeral occasions, in meetings held pub
llcly, been so Indlscreet as to commit them
selves 10 express their hate OF the very
people whom they are now putting them
selves forward to represent are obvj-
ously trying to use the voters as v%aulting
horses. 1t is a matter for the voters if
they permit themselves to be used in
in this way.
Why does not Granady seek admission
to the Colonial Council of St. Thomas.
'. |. U. S.. A. He is a native Of that
worthy isle. He has lived there for
years and is better qualified for Council
memberships there than he is here in
St. Croix.
Why does not R, de Chabert look after
the business of the Labor Union before
he goes to make a muddle of the peoples
business in the Colonial Council?
viii they all resign after the 9Th of
May?
know sufficient to make both of them
feel pretty uncomfortable but shall
await their elevation to the Council
Chamber to state the rest.

inent contenders for the lightweight

porary retirement, will appear to box
twelve rounds or less with Jimmy Ham
lon, of Denver, in the wind-up. Han
lon comes highly recommended. He

beaten Pal Moran, Joe Mandot, Cal De-
laney, Chick Simlcr and Harvey
Thorpe. Hanlon claims draw decisions
with Ritchie Mitchell, Johnny Dundee
and Frankie Callahan.
Augfe Rather, A. f. r. middleweight

The third twelve-rounder will pit
Babe Herman, of California, against
Larry Regan, a rising young product
of this city. Herman, of the Kearns
