ment Of the workers but of the gen.
eral freedom loving public could have
been aroused. AS il was there was
not even a newspaper represented at
this hearing and no line of news
given out by those who had control
Of the situation. am of the opinion
that Governor Small did not even in
tend to give a pardon to our mem
bers before he agreed to give us an
audience for a hearing. This is the
reason that he objected to publicity.
Capitalist Politicians.
"If after the attack made on me
and our joint board, some of our dele
gates did express opposition to back
door polities-they had a perfect right
TO do so-taking into consideration
the above mentioned facts. We are
not interested to whitewash or boost
any politician. It seems to me that
the attempt made by some of the
delegates and officers of the fedora
ton to clear Small and put the blame
on Carlstrom is a sign of another po-
litical alliance. My contention is
that Small and Carlstrom, Sullivan and
Fall, Ryner and everyone else of their
same calibre are to blame for the
violation of the constitutional laws of
our country or free speech, free
thought and free press.
Il therefore have no reason TO clean
one and strip another one. They all
represent the capitalist class and have
nothing to do with labor. In the at
tempt to clear Small in the statement
which appeared in the July "a issue
of the Federation News, an attempt
is made to make us appear as tho We
were not a bonafide organization af-
aliated with them.
Let me say this. The officers Of
the Chicago Federation of Labor know
me for quite a number OF years and
they pretend TO have just recently
learned that have some political af.
fliations. They have known me as
one OF the active workers in the trade
union movement. In fact l served on
the Chicago Federation Of Labor or
ganization committee for one full year
and neither John Fitzpatrick or any
one else found fault with my trade
union activity.

DROTECT those higher up" is
l. the first principle of self-pres-
ervation that the forces Of capital
ism bring into play whenever graft
scandals get out of bound. The in
vestigation of primary slush funds
by the senate committee now hold
ing sessions in Chicago is no excep-
ton.
The editorial crooks on the CAPT
talist newspapers do their best to
protect their masters, the industrial
and political crooks who spend mil
lions during election campaigns to
see that their government functions
properly for them.
Thus the Chicago Tribune and
Hearst's Herald and Examiner argue
along different lines, but they reach
the same goal Editorials appearing
simultaneously in their issues Of
July rs reach these conclusions:
The Tribune-Colonel Frank L.
Smith, who won the republican SEN
atorial nomination by spending sew
eral hundred thousand dollars, is
declared unfit for the senatorship
and his resignation from the Office
chairman of the Illinois commerce
commission) which he now holds is
demanded. No word is uttered de-
handing that Samuel insult, who
gave Smith S125,ooo, should be
stripped of his offices. insult, the
bride giver, the man higher up, must
not be touched.
Hearst's Herald Examiner-It COM
pares the facts as brought out by
the senate committee with the hear
ings before a Chicago grand jury
into local ballot scandals. 1t de-
clares the two Investigations are
"vitally different in Importance" 1t
says the senate probe concerns "po-
litical philosophy; the grand jury is
investigating political crime" 1t
gets philosophical about the doings
of the higher-ups, at the same time
demanding prison terms for the
small fry.
The game is an old one. The won
der is that workers and farmers are
continually taken in by it.
The Pennsylvania findings of the
senate committee showed that the
Mellon interests, seeking to hold po-
litical power in the state for the
coal, steel and railroad tyranny,
were the greatest corruptionists.
The facts already brought out in
Chicago show that the power, gas
and electric railroad interests, head
ed by Samuel insult, creased the po-
litical ambitions of its various politi-
cal tools in Illinois. insult gave
money alike to Smith, the republi-
can, and Brennan, the democrat, and
even contributed to the Deneen re-
publican machine that was support
ing Mckinley, third senatorial can
didate, altho perhaps the power
magnate didn't intend it to aid the
election of his business rival.
Smith got S125,000 from insult, is
the hysterical note sounded by the
Tribune, therefore Smith must go.
The Tribune, however, infers that
it will support Brennan, the demo-
crat, who also got a slice of the
insult riches. The Tribune does not
suggest to the rich stockholders,
who have placed insult in power,
that insult be deposed. Evidently
the stockholders are satisfied with
Insults judicious expenditure of cor

Ballot Box Corruption

poration funds in the political game
TO insure or increase their profits.
The Tribune owners no doubt hold
some of this stock and feel that
George Brennan, like Roger Sulli-
van before him, is safer as he has
proved cheaper than Smith. The
Tribune wishes to protect insult,
the capitalist. That is all the more
reason why labor should realize that
it must strike at the higher-ups, at
the insults, and at the capitalist
social system that breeds them.
Then the Hearst sheet. 1t glories
in Insults efforts to fairly answer
all of Senator Reeds questions in
comparison with the evasive an
swers of the little political fish who
are in bad as a result of a grand
jury probe of vote stealing locally.
The Herald-Examiner laments that
Morris Eller, the boss of the goth
ward, should claim that he collected
no funds, kept no books and knew
nothing of vote-stealing. The Hearst
sheet draws this fine distinction:
"In the senatorial campaign inves-
tigation the facts sought are of con-
tributions. In the local primaries
the facts sought are Of manipula-
ton. One concerns a matter of
judgment; the other concerns a
question of crime. One is a matter,
when all is said and done, princi-
pally of curiosity; the other is
matter of Acknowledgement of thou
sands"
Morris Eller is a sanitary district
trustee and belongs to the Grove
Barrett faction of the republican
party. This faction supported Smith
for the senatorship.
1t was Morris Filler and others
like him that helped spend Smiths
quarter million dollar slush fund.
The Hearst editorial morons seem
to think that the precinct captains
and the ward bosses spent their
own money. Thousands of voters
no doubt were DISTINGUISHED. But
while the actual dirty work was
done by the Ellers and the Hoch-
stems, it was bought and paid for
by the insults in Illinois, and the
MELONS in Pennsylvania, contribut-
ing to the campaign funds of the
Brennans, the Smiths and the Wares.
Even in the light of capitalist law
the Ellers are criminals. But so
are the insults. They join in de-
bauching the electorate.
Senator Reed, of Missouri, who Is
conducting the investigation, is not
interested in pushing this big fact
into the limelight. He is only inter
ested in magnifying the differences
within the republican party for the
benefit of equally crooked demo-
cratic candidates.
Workers and farmers must dis
cover that the whole putrid mess
gives forth a foul smell that arises
alike from the democratic and re-
publican folds.
The exposures are therefore only
useful in that they reveal the man.
ner in which the great capitalists
conduct their political maneuvers to
control their government that func-
lions exclusively for their capitalist
interests. This government must be
completely abolished by labor act
ing as a class struggling on behalf
of it's own class interests.

"In the meantime we had filled his

matter of fact the only fellow that got
