Editor Brawley of the Amigo Herald
is quite evidently displeased with the
Democratic State Central committee
for this is what he says after declar-
ing that Democrats should have a
splendid field in Wisconsin this year:
at seems passing strange, at this
time, taking all these things into con-
sideration that Democratic leaders in
Wisconsin are so intolerably reticent,
Indifferent and inexcusably inactive.
1t is quite apparent that meeting
of the Democratic State Central COM
mittee should be called right away
and that a plan of action should be
mapped out. 1t begins to look as
if somebody was sleeping at the
switch"
One reason probably lies in the fact
that Wisconsin Democrats are not
Stephensons.

ture, with prospects of passage, that
will make it unlawful for any school
or college in the state to permit the

the Supreme Court in Brooklyn late
last night convicted James j. Cleary.
forty-eight, of No S55 West 57th
Street, Manhattan, of arson in the

sentence next Thursday.
Cleary owned a roadhouse at Kings

lyn, in which there was fire Sept.
liz, 1920. Firemen responding to the
alarm extinguished the flames quickly
and discovered several time plants"
composed of candles on paper pie
plates, uncorked bottles of gasoline and
shoddy materials which cause fire to
travel quickly.
Cleary was not there at the time. He
bought the premises in October, 1919,
insured the building for $12,250 and
the contents for s3,4O0. Arson in the
second degree is punishable by twenty
five years in prison.

OF what is an ouija board.
The Federal Government, with that

noted and with the bluntness of thy
tax collector, has determined such
boards are properly to be classod a
sporting goods" along with tennll
racquets, snow shoes. boxing gloves,
baseball bats, golf clubs, footballs and
similar articles.
The Baltimore company therefore
has asked the court to determine
whether the board is, as the company
claims to be, "a grade of motor
automatism, involving considerable
sub conscious action Of intelligence,
and not sporting goods" subject TO 1
tax of 10 per cent.
If the boards are not exactly wha
it claims, the MANUFACTURED contends
"A large part OF those made by then
are Of n small size, intended for tn
use of children. and for taxing pur

say about the larger boards, shoul
be classcd as Children's toys.

NJ matter what the cost.
For several years past a gang OF
professional thugs have gradually
poincd executive control of n number
of Chicago labor unions. Through IN
timidation and violence they nave
worked their way into the inner coun-
oils of certain unions until they have
hocomc absolute dictators of the terms
on which a man may work, for whom
no NAV work, when and where. This
grin is SO tight that by systematic
blocllmail of workers and their en-
Movers alike they have accumulated
large sums of money, which they have
used in bribery and corruption on
scale so enormous that they have
becn almost immune from successful
prosecution.
The function of every municipal
pollce organization is to enforce the
law and preserve order. AS an arm
of civic government is has no concern
with the merits of the disputes be-
tween employers and workers. but it
cannot under any circumstance ig-
