DEADLY NON-UNION MINES
MAINTAIN HIGH RECORD

Charleston, w. Va, Dec. 10.-Death
continues to exact it's high toll among
the anti-union mines Of this state.
During October the lives Of "a miners
were destroyed. Nearly rs per cent
Of the fatalities were in Mcdowell
county, where union miner is as
scarce as grape fruit in the Arctic
zone.
According to the state department
Of mines, one life is lost for every
245s129 tons Of coal produced. The
coal operators can violate the mining
laws with impunity and thus save on
timbering and ether costs.

PRESS ATTORNEY MAKE FALSE CHARGES
T0lMPuCATE UNIONS IN RALM|NG CASE

CHICAGO, Dec. 10.-There have
been % bombings in Chicago during
the last year, according to the police
department, and the police managed
to capture the bombers red-handed on
their esth job.
States Attorney Robert E. Grove
Immediately got busy and asked for 3
special grand jury to investigate all Of
the bombings pulled in 1926. His
plan IS to call in all of the victims
and ascertain who visited them and
what was said TO them just before
they were bombed.
Grove Has Genius
For the Limelight
Mr.. Grove has q genius for show
manship and always makes a big
noise about what he is going to do
just before he starts to do it. He
gets lost Of space in the newspapers,
accompanied by pictures of himself
in many heroic attitudes.
The daily newspapers credit Mr..
Grove with having made the state
ment that investigation would show
that the victims of the bombings had
been visited by labor union officer
and threatened just prior to the
bombing.
The police captured three men and
a woman in the act Of bombing q
hardware store on the North Side.
Sweated, they confessed that Joseph
NJ, Sangerman, owner Of a BARRIERS
supply house, was their paymaster,
and that Jack Davis, a member of
Journeyman BARRIERS Union No. 548,
was implicated with Sangerman.

The daily newspapers announced in
sensational stories that Sangerman
was one Of the powers in the Bar

ex-president Of that organization.
sangerman has never been a men,
Der of the BARRIERS Union, according
to W. s. Leidig, president of that or
ganization, and Jack Davis is not an
exrpresident Of IL, either. The daily
newspapers are aware Of these mis-
statements, but they have not taken
the trouble to make correction, the
impression being left in the minds of
the public that responsible members
of organized labor are the directing
heads of the So-calIed "bombing
trust"
Interview by international Labor
News Service, President Leidig of Chi
cago BARRIERS Union No. 54s. said:
"Sangerman is not now and never
has been a member of our union. He
is the secretary and representative of
the Master Barbers' Association (the
boss BARRIERS organization on the

he has made attempts to be elected,
but he is one of the radicals and has

Seward daily gateway., 1925-06-27

Mrs. Jennie Paulson has taken over the duties of the Housing com mittee for the Fourth of July Cele- bration and will assume full charge of this important business. A per sonal call will be made this week, to all Seward homes with the view of ascertaining the number of extra rooms which can be obtained, for over the holiday, whether women or men are desirable at certain homes, in fact just how many visitors can be taken care of comfortably, as precautionary measure against pos sibility of overflow from the local hotels, which seems inevitable. An automobile will be furnished Mrs. Paulson, to expedite her work this week.
