HERR|N SURVIVORS
FEAR FOR LIVES
Wounded Men Expect to Be
Massacred When They
Leave Hospital
TELL MORE OF BRUTALlTIES

Hcrrin. Ill.,, June 2!.-Twelve
wounded men. survivors Of the forty
seven non union workers and guards
captcured at the Lester mine by mob
last Thursday. are in danger OF their
lives If they leave the IIerrin Hospital,
according to reliable reports reaching
State and Federal investigators.
Dead men tell no tales. and some
Of those wounded men know too much
for the safety of members of the mob,
one Hcrrin business man commented.
Officials of the hospital admitted that
some union men attempted to remove
hnc Of the wounded guards at IL o clock
last Saturday night. under promise OF
escorting him over the county line
but they were denied entrance to the
hospital.
May Ask for Soldiers
The consensus OF opinion among the
responsible clement seems to be that the
State should send one or two squads
of armed soldiers TO Hcrrin when the
wounded are ready to leave, to furnish
them safe conduct back to Chicago
The mere appearance of a small body
of mon in uniform would forcstnll any
mob action. Herrin men say.
That the massacre victims fear vto-
lencc If they are forced to leave the
hospital unprotected. was confirmed by
four of the men. Their fear was also
hcll by Howard Hoffman. 621 Webster
street. Huntingdon. Ind. one Of the
mine guards. and another unidentified
guard. both of whom died in the hos
pital.
Hoffman. in dying statement,
warned hospital authorities. 1t is said,
that none Of the wounded would ever
leave Williamson County alive. Hr
was among the six men tied together

Hoffman and one other died in the
hospital, and one still is there

Hoffman. when dying. said he fell
ut the first vollcy and fcigned death.
\ member of the mob approached and
fred pointblank into his back. Then
ne rolled Hoffman over, face up. and
several men stamped on his chest.
Finally one of the mob drew n knife
and slashod HofTman's throat.
The other man. who died in tho
hospital without giving his name. and
who was buried with the unidentitio
dead. told practically the same story.
His throat also was cut. He said one
member Of the mob graspcd his head

back while companion welded the

ARE THE POOR
GETTING POORER?

New plans of the Salvation Army
formulated following a nationwide
survey made during the unemploy-
ment crisis, provide for an extension
Of activities principally among boys
and girls who are starting out TO
make their way in the world.
Some of the old channels for the
administering of relief have been
closed, due to the passing of the sa-
loon, and the fact that prosperity has
lifted the poor from the depths to
which they had become accustomed.
Good wages, plus savings banks
and prohibition, warded off the wolf
during the winter months in the ma
iority of the industrial centers of the
United States, the Army claims. So
the money thus saved is going to be
spent in giving working boys and
girls lift.
And it will be big lift, too. In all
large cities, the organization is plan
ming to open boarding homes where
young men and women may find all
the comforts and tonvenlences of a
real home at prices that will leave a

New York and Washington, the Dew
ey hotel in the latter city being the
center of Army activities for young
women.
Commander Evangeline Booth, head
of the Salvation Army in America, be-
lieves that the poor are not getting
poorer, by any means, but rather to
the contrary. On her return to the
East, following a 10000 trip to the
Pacific Coast, she said:
Labor is seething as usual with
radical agitators, but recent condi'
tions have not favored destructive
propaganda. Few people realize the
influence of the Salvation Army in
counteracting the spread of Bolshe.

optimism, however, and labor, par
ticularly farm labor, is showing cour

DEMOCRATS MUST NOT
BE TOO COCK SURE

This year of 1922'is just as surely
Democratic year as 1920 was a Re-
publican year. Go where you will in
Missouri and you'll hear little dis
cussed but the mistakes of Harding
and Hyde. Democracy has con-
structive program, Democracy can
cure the ills of the state and nation
but if Democracy possessed nothing
under the sun but negative pro
gram of opposition it would still be
in fine shape to win out in the fall
elections. ,
The emergency tariff, the perma-
nent tariff, the bonus muddle, the
ship subsidy mess, the Presidents
spineless strike policy--if it may be
called a policy-our junior Senator
and Arthur M. Hyde all are trump
cards in the hands of the Democrats.
It's hard to see how we can lose but
such thing is possible if we grow
over-confdent. We don't want to be
too cock-sure about November until
the last vote is cast; we don't want to
be so busy painting a rosy picture of
the victory that we forget to work
for our party.
Overwhelmingly overconfidence
can beat the Democrats in Novem-
Der. Let's try to get away from it.

support from twelve members of the
new Democratic State Committee for
the Carthage merchant.
Former Congressman William L.
Igoe, of st. Louis, is also looming up
strongly for the Democratic chair
manship. He had charge of the re-
cent campaign of Senator Reed in st.
Louis and managed it so well that
twenty-six of the twenty"eight wards
went overwhelmingly for his candi-
date, giving that warhorse the city
over Long by $1,000 votes. 1t is stat
ed on good authority that fully four
teen members of the new state COM

Congressman for Chairman. In the
list are said to be all of the members
from that city--six in number, two
each from the Tenth, Eleventh and
Twelfth Congressional Districts, and
the two from the Fifth District which
consists of Kansas City and all of

SCRATCH MY BACK
AND I'll SCRATCH YOURS

Most people are so busy attending
to their own business that they have
little time or inclination to stop mo-
ment and glimpse into the other fell
lows troubles or problems; yet it is a
fact that the besettments of ones
neighbors curiously affect each per-
son in community such as Farming
ton where all must live prosperously
or suffer economically by what the
other fellow does.
For these reasons The Times be-
lieves we can all stop a moment to
consider the duties we owe to each
other. Perhaps by so doing we can all
profit.
We believe that if every bit of mer-
chandise that can be bought here were
actually purchased of DeSoto mer-
chant the result would be instantly
apparent in the size and character Of
stores.
Prosperous communities are simply
the result of traffic among the people
who populate them. Thus a dollar
spent with your neighbor means that
he will spend it again here if he is as
public spirited as you are, and if we
spend that dollar often enough among
ourselves before long it will be in the
hands of ten or fifteen people, all of
whom will have had the fun Of pos
sessing it.
But take the dollar out of town and
all those who might have had it will
notice its failure to arrive. Even
money banked is still in possession;
it is loaned to the man who wants to
enlarge his store, improve his farm,
or buy a home.
So we say dollar spent at home
cannot be lost. 1t is always wrong to
fritter away money, but if one must
spend it injudiciously it should 5e
spent at home.
DeSoto should be jealous of its re-
sources; it should consider it direct
misfortune to the community to be
necessary to go out of town for a
purchase. Your merchant will APP
preciate your telling him of some way
he can make his business more near
ly fit your needs.
We all have visions of bigger and
better town. The best way to realize
them is absolutely to buy nothing
away from town that you can buy
