WOOL TRUST PETrED.

Tho Wool trust comes out Of the
tariff fight with colors flying. The
new wool schedule is 50 outrageous
that it will take almost billion dol
lars each year in additional prices,
over what they should be, from the
pockets of the consumers.
This amount alone, in four years,
would pay the entire bill for the SOL
diers' bonus. The people, who would
like to see the boys get the bonus
will have to pay this bill, and yet the
soldiers will 60 without their recon-
pense.
One Of the most ironical frauds in
the wool tariff is tho fact that it
taxes as pure wool every fake and
fraud that by any stretch of the
truth can be classed as wool.
A workmen's blue winter shirt,
which he fondly thinks is wool, has
placed on it duty of 10S per cent,
though there is no real wool in it.
To can it wool is an insult which
even sheep should resent. The goods
used to make these shirts usually con-
tain from so to IS per cent of shoddy
and the remainder is cotton.
Many folks think the word shoddy
merely means poor grade Of wool.
That is correct as far as it goes, but
the fact is that shoddy is made from
the ragpicker's rags, pulled to pieces
by machinery and again spun and
dyed. The long fiber and the life of
the original wool are gone and the
garment in which it is used is of
short life, poor quality and Of little
warmth.
The duty on wool is put on under
pretense Of protecting the farmer. It
really removes all the protection he
has against the cheat and the fraud.
All of the farmers need to wear
woolen garments and buy them for
their families, yet only 7 per cent Of
the farmers raise sheep, while only
3 or per cent have large flocks.
The tariff on the raw wool will
enrich the wool growers about As
millions, will put about 60 millions
in the Treasury, and add 473 millions
to the prices of the handlers and
manufacturers Of wool and clothing.
Every fellow gets his cut out of it
the wool jobber, the scourer, the
carder, the spinner, the weaver, the
clothing manufacturer, jobber and re-
taller. Half of this is due to this
pyramiding each handler adds his
percentage of profit to a higher
first cost.
If yard of cloth formerly cost
him two dollars, his fifty per cent
profit causes him to sell it for three
dollars-a profit Of one dollar. But
if that cloth now costs him three
dollars and he adds fifty per cent for
profit, he makes a dollar ond a half,
and the purchaser pays four dollars
and half in place of three dollars.

HOMAGE TO sTR1KEBREAKERs.

HOMAGE TO STR1hEBREAKER
Attorney General Daugherty, tell
ing the court why the railroad in
junction should be granted, pledged
his governmental yower in defense
of the "open shop'-the anti.
union shop.
One Of Daugherty's assistants
helped to clear up the question, pro-
ceeding where Daugherty left off.
This assistant United States Attor-
ney General, A. A. Mclaughlin, said
to the Court, as quoted in the Phila-
delphia Record:
'The courage Of the strikebreak-
ers who have carried on in the face
Of violence and even murder is
greater than the courage of the SOL
dier in France.'
This tribute to the strikebreaker,
who needs no characterization here,
will be resented by every man who
fought in France, and it's bitter un-
fairness will be understood by them
as we'll as by union men who have
struggled and suffered Co maintain
human Freedom both in industry and
in the political world.
For a government official to at.
tribute to strikebreakers a courage
above the courage of the men who
fought in France is about the last
word in sycophantic worship at the
shrine of greed.

"a DANGEROUS AGITATOR.'

Speaking Of labor unions in a re-
cent address, Gov. Miller of New
York said:
emo element of this country, how
ever large or however small, can with
safety be permitted to have the
power to pursue its own selfish
interest. These associations of capi-
tai and labor are organized primarily
for selfish purpose and not for the
public good. And one Of the things
which the state can do and which it
is the imperative duty Of the state to
do is to see to it that no association
organized for selfish purposes and
having the power to control produc-
tion shall be permitted to put and
keep it's selfish interest above the in
terest Of the public.''
This is an excellent example of
anti-labor thought. Expressive of a
total misunderstanding Of the labor
movement, it fails utterly to take
into account the real powers which
are inficting all but intolerable
abuses upon the masses of the Ameri-
can people.
Organizations formed for selfish
purposes, "having the power to con-
troll production,' says Gov. Miller.
What has Gov. Miller to say about
the Steel Trust, the National Associ-
alton of Manufacturers, the United
States Chamber of Commerce, and as
a matter fact our whole industrial
system?
The governor, in his eagerness to
attack labor, comes close to assailing
the very institutions which he seeks
to protect.
Every owner of factory has the
power to "control production. The
Steel Trust closes its doors at will.
So does Henry Ford. So does every
factory in the land. When the doors
are closed Workmen are compelled to
remain idle. They are absolutely
helpless in the face of closed doors.
This power to close doors is un-
matched in all history.
"No element,' says the governor,
"can with safety be permitted to
have the power to pursue it's own
selfish INTEREST,"
The governor would pull down the
house! He would put the whole Wall
Street banking combine out of busi-
ness In a trice! Surely we know Of
no other institution of surprising
power used more definitely for selfish
interest.
If the governor 8 words were trans
lated literally into action there
would not be left shred of our
present industrial order; and our
financial order would go with equal
dispatch.
The governor of New York has
used an argument common among
labor haters, but it is the argument
which they should be last to use.
Their statement does not describe the

READ Them AND WEEP

Every well-lnformed man in the
United States knows that at the time
when the Attorney General secretly
went to Chicago to ask for this in
junction the coal strike had already
been settled by negotiation, and that
the leaders of the shopmen and a
number Of the executives represent
ing a very large group Of roads were
meeting together to work out an
agreement which would have
brought peace on all the roads in the
United States except small group
of railroads dominated by the "die
tives. who have sworn that they will
never consent to any settlement
which does not involve complete
surrender by the shopmen and the
abandonment of collective bargain
ing on their roads. This small mi
nority of "bitter enders" are the
same ones who contemptuously re-
jected the proposed settlement Of
ficially offered by the President of
the United States. If this amicable
settlement between the shopmen and
the railroads had been completed,
it would have left this small minor
ity Of anti-union executives isolated
and would have meant their ultimate
defeat.-Rep. Oscar Keller.
A few years ago spent a summer
in Scotland. I was the guest Of a
merchant prince of Glasgow. After
dinner in the evening the beautiful
and charming daughters of the
Scotchman would give a concert of
piano and violin music. After the
concert we would eat cheese and
crackers and drink Scotch whisky.
Then followed family prayers and
sweet sleep. This all took place,
please remember. IN Protestant
Presbyterian Scotland, the land Of
John Knox and the covenanters.-
Rep. Chandler, New York.
Mr.. Chairman, there are approxi-
mately 100000 cars in the United
States. Our inspectors inspect ap-
proximately 100000 cars per month.
or little less than that, or approxi-

MAJORS RAISE ANTE
FOR MINOR PLAYERS
TRepubIIcan A. p. Leased Wirel


CHICAGO, Jan. 7.-Major league
baseball leaders. meeting today with
Judge Lands. baseball commissioner,
decided 10 amend the major minor
draft agreement so that $500 instead
Of $4,000 il be the price for draft
ing a player from the Class AA
leagues. This agreement, according
to Ban Johnson. American league
head, and John Heydler, who repre-
sented the National league, will be
the last concession of the majors to
induce minors TO accept the draft
The major league chiefs consented
TO the increase in price only after an
all-day meeting, the most of which
was taken up by John Conway
Toole. president Of the international
league, and President Tom Hickey
of the American Association in ex-
planning why their circuits have OBJ
jected to the major leagues select
ing one player annually from each
club.
At the suggestion Of Judge lands,
the amendment Is to be so worded
that either major league can with
draw prior TO January l. 1928. This
was the only condition on which
President Johnson and President
Heydler would agree to the change
Both Hickey and Toole expressed =
belief that the raise might satisfy
their respective club owners. but the
matter will have to be put before
these men and also before the major
league owners before it can be put
into effect.
At recent meeting OF the Ameri
can Association the draft question
was turned down. principally because

enough for player. For this rea-

(right) two local sportsmen back
from a 80 minute duck hunt in the
Buckeye district. Forty ducks, count
'em, made a nice morning shoot for
the boys and supplied the dinner
table with an assortment of game
that would tempt the kings palate.
In this string of ducks were found
mallards, red heads, canVasbacks,
spriggs, widgeons and teal. Pinney
and Aitken left Phoenix at o'clock
one brisk morning last week. set out
their decoys and after pulling the
trigger for a little over one hour
pulled camp on the ella river near
Buckeye and were back in Phoenix
before noon. The picture was taken
by The Republican staff photogra-
pher on their arrival in Phoenix.
This is not the only big hunting
party that reported last week. b. A.
Gillespie and Dan Campbell motored
down TO the Gillespie dam az Airing
ton Thursday evening, opened fire
Friday morning and returned to
Phoenix Friday evening with the
limit of big ducks.
The Florence reservoir is another
spot favored by the duck hunters
this season. Many successful hunts
have been reported from this section
and the sportsmen have been jubi-
liant over the number of ducks flock
ing to that vicinity during the past
month.
Yesterday orning Governor
Campbell, Walter c. Miller OF Je-
rome, j. M. Aitkin and W. l.. Pin
ney bagged a fine mess of large ducks
down the river.
The last month of the duck season
is always the best shooting. With
cloudy weather cold misty mornings,
plenty of water and thousands oil
ducks within easy reach over fine
| paved roads and only "a more days
until the lid is clamped down the
Nimrods will be in their glory. The
| finish promises to be exciting after
the most successful duck season the
state has known in years.
The season on ducks, snipes, geese
and bryant closes January 81. In
! the meanwhile sportsmen VIII be able
| to get in many interesting trips.
Geese and snipe have been reported
plentiful. However, very few geese
have been bagged so far this season.

entitle the holder to kill game dur

Indian reservations. and is also q
