conservative school play the role Of
capitalist lieutenants, should watch
the antics of William D. Mahon, presi-
dent of the Amalgamated Association

ously for the purpose of preventing
the employees Of Sam Insults elevated
railway from striking for niger
wages. A little bit of history con-
corning this man Mahon may be en-
tightening.
A T the Montreal convention of the
a American Federation of Labor a
Detroit local of the Sheet Metal
Workers Union, presented charges
against Mahon charging him with
maintaining a scab shop in Detroit
and with refusing to recognize the
union. Mahon was whitewashed by
the committee appointed by Samuel
Gompers to investigate the charge,
But facts as brot out and admitted
by Mahon we're Illuminating. The
scab shop, Mahon claimed in his de
tense was owned by his son, but il
developed that his son was also priv.
ate secretary to Mahon and that his
salary came from dues paid by mem
bers Of the street carmens' union.

the general belief that William Ma.
hon was financially interested in the

admitted by everybody that part OF
the capital used to finance the scah
shop came from the dues payments of
union street carmen. In order to
show his contempt for the sheet metal

.SLASHED NEGRO

Late theater goers and shoppers
gazed in amazement as a terrified
negro, literally cut to ribbons and
with blood gushing from many
wounds, dashed madly across Hous-

the lobby of the Houston building

Jones Avenue, was the CORY Splinter

He was picked up from the lobby of

DASHES FOR DOCTOR.
Amazed, the throngs stood aside and
opened a way for the blood-smeared
negro to pass through in his mad dash
for a Doctors office. His strength
failed as he entered the Houston
building lobby, and he fell in a faint.
Nearly 100 stitches were taken to
close his wounds nc the hospital. He
was cut across the top Of the right
hand, an artery on one side of his
head was severed. there was a deep
slash on the right side of his body.
and membranes on his right side were
cut. Other small cuts were numerous.
His sturdy physique will enable him

BESIDES evolutionists in their
ID theories use even poor station
airy Amphioxus. They say his family
outlined backbone is the ancestor Of
every backbone on the globe, whether
of fish, reptile, bird or animal.
In fact, Amphioxus, living with his
tail buried in the sand and eating
anything that floats into his mouth,
is alleged to be the direct ancestor
of man.
That is a dreadful thought, al
