This was about the first real strike

strike. This one involved lumber
work, in mills and logging camps,
and anne and thereby attacked
one basic industry and a transpor-
tation industry not basic but prac-
tically on the same level of import
ance. Thereby It became of national
moment.
There is no real reason for the
failure of this strike other than a
few general ones, chief of which Is
the lack of the faintest resemblance
of public sentiment behind 1t. In
its every activity the I. w. w. defes
public sentiment and fouts the idea
of i~ntercession leading to sympathy.
It's cornerstone is coercion and the
pinnacle of its hopes is the level
ground with every human reduced
TO its own plane and stratum. or
advancement by personal industry.
frugality and thrift it is jealous and
intolerant. From the human heart
it would eliminate hope and replace
1t with hatred.
Lacking in outside support in the
form of sympathy, spurning an alli-
ance of public sentiment and telling
the world that it must stand in and
whether ii does not il will be forci-
bly, reduced to the plane of the mem
bers of the big union, making war on
the only organization that has con-
sistently and constantly worked for
the uplift ad better living of its
members, its policy thus becomes
that of an~tagonizing all and culti-
waiting the good will of none.
Whether it was studied or not that
the I. W. w. has kept out of previ-
Gus strikes, the utter failure OF this
one is likely to prove a solar plexus
to the outfit. 1t has made its blum

decline will be apparent to every OBJ
server. Its future existence depends
on not letting its bluffs reach the
calling point.

EASY ENTRY FOR ANARCHISTS

The manner in which Noah Ler-

in Christendom. goes to show that
no matter how much hot air there is
about strict immigration laws and
the regulations by which they are
enforced, they r in reality OF little
OF no force whatever as against the
persons they are intended to keep
out, which are the old country an
archists. In reality the mon who
come to these shores on crime bert
do not insert page ads in the news
papers telling of their arrival, but.
on the contrary, resort to every ar
tifice to conceal tlleir identities and
to get i'm whether or no.

of necessity having had to be to
play the part he is supposed TO have
played, which was that of hiring the
team that hauled the explosives to
the spot. But that did not entitle
him to reentry. Theoretically men
of this character are supposed to be
given such a shaking down when
they apply for entry, at least to be
put through such tests that their
anarchistic leanings would crop out
somewhere. But II press reports are
reliable Lerner walked right in and
was wholly unsupported Of being
what he is and his chaacter never
would have been discovered but for
Information brought from Russia by
a third party. And even then had
he been a plain anarchist without
already being mixed up in one of the
greatest OF modern crimes he would
have remained here undiscovered
until he rotted.
This Is the class of persons which
the propagandists shouting labor
shortage wish to let into the coun-
try. They want all restrictions re-
moved and every nationality allowed
free entry. regardless of their un-
desirability as citizens. They want

the trap, for the Navajo Indians
make il a practice to steal only the
traps But they take enough of
them to more than make up the diff

1T is against the superstitious re
ligious belief of a Navajo to kill coy
otes, but of recent years they have
gradually changed and interpreted
that TIC mean that they may kill them
provided they do not touch them.
Therefore If a Navajo finds a coyote
in your trap he will use a gun, clut
or rock to dispatch the animal, then
with a gunnysaek, gloves or forked
stick will handle the animal sparirg-
;y to get it's foot out Of the trap so
that the latter may be taken.
