While it is easy to believe some of the rail strikers have been guilty of acts of violence during the last several weeks, with hired thugs bait ing them at every rail center, 1t is equally easy to believe that not all of the afidavits submitted by Attor- ney General Daugherty are genuine. It has been charged that Attorney General Daugherty received a fat fee from Charles W. Morse a num- Der of years ago, while Morse was languishing in Leavenworth prison, and there was much talk of fake afiidavits in connection with the release of the wealthy crook. But aside from the question of faking afidavits, the attempts that are be- ing made to run the country by the injunction plan should be discour- aged and it is the sincere hope of The News that the vicious practice will be halted before it obtains frmer hold upon the nation.
