bushels of wheat worked early for
export. Domestic milling demand
was light. Receipts in the south
west dropped off sharply, Some in
terests claimed that the country

a dip at the start but the market
rallied only to weaken under Hqui-
dation pressure and stop loss sell

A Clever Ruse.
The attorney general sought to
evade the provisions of the Clayton
act by bringing the. action in the
name Of the United States. This was
a. clever ruse, demeaning to this
great office and the honorable pro-
fession to which he belongs. He is
sworn to uphold the federal law,
and the spirit of the law is its life.
AS the Scriptures say: "The spirit
giveth life. but the letter killeth."
Observing the letter Of the law, he
justice.
While the workmen are denied
their constitutional rights in an ef-
fort to intinidate them, the rail-
roads are operating their roads in
violation of the safety acts Of con-
gress and endangering the lives Of
the public and their employees. The
railroads are negiecting their duties
as common carriers.
They rely on the strong arm Of
the department of Justice to gain
their ends, and the department is
their willing agent. AS is we'll said
in The Nation:
1.-THE whole procedure is. nothing
less than an attempt to use the
force of the government SO thor
oughly to break the resistance of
the railroad workers that they, will
be compelled to toll for the private
profit Of the railroad owners at
whatever terms they may be pleased
to grant. This Is slavery. There is
a higher law than any injunction
yes, a higher law. than any consti-
tuition. and that is the law Of liberty
and Of justice. In obedience to that

open SHOP CAMPAIGN
PRODUCES LABOR BANK


- As direct outcome OF. the ''open
shop" campaign and the Bufaalse
street car strike, the Central Labor
Union Of Buffalo has voted to pro-
coed with the esta blishment of a
cooperative labor bank. A commit
tee of local trade union leaders has
been appointed to arrange the de-
tails Of organization, and a large
number Of individual trade unionists
and small business men have already
promised their financial and moral
support.
The immediate occasion for the
Buffalo labor bank was the dis-s
covery by local trade unionists that
the big bankers of Buffalo were
taking the workers deposits and
lending them to the most prominent
union busters of the city, including
the street railway corporation.
