posed to lawless methods. during
strikes. It is opposed, among other
reasons, because lawless methods in
variably in1ure the strikers more
than any one else, and in addition
turns the friendly sentiment of the
community against it. But the trade
union movement is just as strongly
opposed to having its members re-
strained by an Injunction granting
court from committing crimes and
misdemeanors, because in this they
know there is involved a denial of
the right of trial by jury, the great
est safeguard which the individual
has to protect himself when wrong
fully charged with committing Of
lenses. AS Lord Commissioner May
nard of England, says:
Trial by Jury is the subjects
birthright, an inheritance as his
lands were, and without which he
is not sure to keep them or any,
thing else. This way Of trial is his
fence and protection against all
floods and surprises, and against all
storms of power"
In more condensed but fully as
impressive language, Lord Camden,
one of England's greatest jurists,
said:
Trial by jury is, indeed. the
foundation of our free constitution.
Take that away and the whole fab
ric will soon mould into dust"
The trade-union movement insists
that being a union man or a. striker
in no way. manner or form modifies
any of the trade-unionists citizen
rights The vilest criminal is entitled
to a trial by jury. Men struggling to
maintain their staad4sa Of living e. .ze

not surrender the right-to g. trial by
jury, because It's members may be
involved n industrial controversies.

-.'"Colonel" James A. ,McCrea, of
the Pennsylvania lines. speaking be-
fore the. Pittsburgh Chamber Of
Commerce, March Is. 1922, declared
that for tens, Years, or even more,
the railroads of this country have
been Systematically. starved as to
their revenues, RESTRICTED as to their
expenses, and the management. of
their properties taken out of the

prietor of the New York Herald,
was singing the same song prior to
the war. Mr.. Munsey said: (See Num-
sey's Magazine for April; 1910 ''by
starving the. railroads We starve
with them.'
Consistent with this same syste,
matte course of misinforniation,
Senator Kellogg, Of Minnesota, de-
clares on the floor fthe senate of
the United. States, that the operating
expenses Of the railroads, plus the
interest on the bonds, are "sixtye

Prospect of New Alignment.
This brings us to the third party,
about which everyone is talking. TO
go back to the. Democratic group
that held aloof from the congress
sional campaign. If they succeed in
capturing the Democratic machinery
their status will be fixed. If they
fail, they are just about ready to
swing to a third party with money,
energy and experience. They prefer
to back their progressivism under
the Democratic banner first on ac-
count of their sentimental attach
ment to the party and, second, for
the practical reason that as Demo-
Gratis they can march to the polls
with the sure backing of the solid
south, no matter how progressive
their economic program may be.
Senator Borah said the other day
that unless the Republican party
changed it's policies there would be
third party in 1924. He likened
present conditions to those of 1852
when the Republican party was
born. He said that for himself he
preferred to- see progress made
through a rehabilitated Republican
party and that he was working to
that end. Nevertheless, Senator b.
rah has no great hope Of witnessing
such a rehabilitation. Neither has
Senator La Toilette. Consequently
there are two elements in the Re-
publican party that are actually
headed toward the third party. IL
1t is to be noted that the elements
in both the .oemocratic~andR epub-
lican parties whose eye. are turned
toward a third party are of the pro-
gressive type. But. whereas there
seems to- be no rift in the Demo-
cratic progressive group, the Re-
publican progressives are badly in
need of conciliator. Perhaps, one
will appear. But a summation Of
facts and opinion respecting the
third party leads to the conclusion
that as yet it is no more than pos
sibility, but one that everyone,
whether conservative, progressive,
or radical, seems to take for granted
will! materialize.

LIBEL ON LABOR STANDS

The public press has not corrected
false statements it Smade when it
announced that striking railroad
men deserted their trains ON the
desert, says John A. Voll, editor of
the Bottle Maker.
HAS President Harding corrected
the falsehood in his message to
congress or attempted to repair the
damage? He has not to our knowl-
edge up to this writing. This is
only another episode III the conten-
ton between capital and labor in
which capitalism uses it's power OF
false propaganda to crush a
righteous cause. as it did in the steel
strike, and later exposed by the in
terchurch world movement.
But, it is said, what good is
the expose after the damage has
been done, the cause crushed or@de-
feated? It focuses the minds Of the
people upon the underhanded meth
DDS Of big business, and brings it a
step nearer to the day Of reckon
ing. It also gives conclusive proof
of the power that big business

This resentment was shown
openly by the Greater Marion as

public was informed at that time
that the Greater Marion association
did not and had never maintained
any membership or connection
whatsoever with the Illinois Cham
Der of Commerce. Prior to the time

ed its guns on the Illinois chamber,
the latter organization had been
carrying the name Of the Marion
Chamber TO Commerce on its men,
bership lists and publishing the same
in each monthly issue of their mag
azine. The Greater Marion associa-
ton, demanded that the state cham
Der of commerce discontinue this
misleading statement at once. We
understand that the November issue
of the Illinois Journal of Commerce
has no reference to the Marion
Chamber of Commerce in it. The
name TO the Marion Chamber of
Commerce is and has been for near
ly two years, a misnomer. Yhe old
Marion Chamber of Commerce,
which was abandoned last Novem-
Der, cancelled their membership in
the Illinois chamber of commerce
in May, 1921. The reason for this
cancellation was that the local cham
Der resented tho fight for the open

when the Greater Marion asso-
