There is no purpose here to defend
crooks. That we may leave to the
lawyers. The purpose is to defend
an occupation that operates as safe
guard of the public intedest.
There are definite standards to
mark honesty apart from dishonesty
Those may be used among oil pro-
moters as well as among Wall street
operators They suffice. The injunc-
ton in labor dispute aims to mark
a man guilty before he has thought
of doing wrong. The big oil interests
seek to do the same thing when they
seek to stop Independent promotion.
There is another measure. Where
few Independent promoters have

CHARLES H. MURPHY
CLAIMED BY DEATH
Passing Away of Old Shop
mate Casts Gloom Over
Press Force

A deep pail of gloom has been cast
over the force and employers of the
Butler County Press, caused by the
death of one of it's oldest members
and shopmate, Charles H. Murphy.
Early in the winter Mr.. Murphy
became i'll, but apparently recovered
and recuperated to an extent that he
once more returned to his work which
he loved so well. But it was plain
to be seen by his sorrowing fellow
workers that he was not the same
man physically of former days.
Daily it was noticed he seemed to
grow weaker until, in February, he
laid down his tools, which he was
never again to raise, and retired to
his home, $40 High street, where on
last Friday at II p. M, surrounded
by his grief-stricken and sorrowing
loved ones, he peacefully passed away.
Funeral services were held at the
home Tuesday morning at $50 o'clock
with requiem high mass at st. Mary's
Church at 9 o'clock. The remains were
laid to rest in st. Mary's cemetery.
Charlie Murphy was staunch
union man, one of the old school kind.
His belief in the principles of trade
unionism was of such that he couldn't
see how any workingman can stay
out of the union organization of his
craft He was the first union printer
in Hamilton and was proud of this
fact. His death removes one of the
old-line organized labor men whose
place will be hard to fill. He was fair
and honest in his dealings with all
whom he met.
For nearly twenty years he served
on this paper, and no more faithful
employe ever set type than Charlie
Murphy. BY US, of the Press force,
with whom he daily came in contact,
his kindly actions, his cheerful man
ner and his helpful ways will be
missed and his memory cherished for
long.
The members of the Press force, in
a body, visited the bereaved home
to view the remains on Monday eve
ming, as did the members of Typo
graphical Union No. 290, of which he
was an honored member and one of
its organizers. The beautiful floral
tributes, the many visitors at the
home, at the church services and at
the cemetery betokened the popularity
and great esteem in which the de-
ceased was held by his fellow work
ers, his friends and his neighbors.
Mr.. Murphy was devoted to his
| family and leaves to mourn his loss
one son, Charles l.. Murphy; one
daughter, Mrs. Hobart Hart; one
grandson, Jack Hart, and one brother
William Murphy, to whom the Press
land all Hamilton organized labor
joins in extending its heartfelt sym
pathy in their hour of sorrow.

What will become of the wage
earner's fiivver with dollar gas 1t
will be permanently parked. So the
subject is interesting.
There is going on just now a strong
propaganda against so-called blue
sky oil promotion. Strange as it may
seem, the propaganda would have US
believe that every Independent pro-
motor is a crook and ought to be in
durance vile. 1t is the Independent
promoter who gathers up the money
to go into the field and drill new
wells on suspicion that he may find
oil. He is the real discoverer of new
fields and pools. And he is the bird
that prevents complete monopoly.
There are and have been crooks
among oil promoters. There are
crooks in every line of business. Let
the skeptic read the proceedings of
the federal trade commission, or the
bankruptcy courts, or even the police
courts.
But not more than a fair per cent
age of oil promoters is crooked. Per-
haps about the average. Perhaps,
also, the percentage of downright
crookedness among promoters is as
high among those who promote such
industries as power as it is among
oil men.

try, in the light of the existing eco
nomic situation. Such a sharing of
responsibility should be recognized in
collective agreements. The union
should consider earnestly whether the
continuance of its fight for the Jack
sonville scale, which undoubtedly
serves as a rallying point for its mem
bership amid demoralizing forces, is
of more ultimate value than a resump-
ton of relations with the operators in
the northern fields on a wage basis
that will permit the profitable mining
of coal. This is decision which the
union must make for itself.
"(5) If the parties to this contro-
versy can find a basis for a resump-
tion of contractural relations, it will
be for the public to see that the pres
ent methods of preventing unioniza-
ton in the southern fields shall end.
Indeed, considerations of public policy
alone should lead to the abolition of
these practices"
No Union, Then Chaos
IF, for example, the United Mine
Workers were to be destroyed, it ap-
pears altogether likely that an intol-
cradle competition would ensue." 1t
adds that "the miners cannot be ex-
pected to accept event temporary
reduction in the scale unless the op-
orators are willing to resume collect
i've bargaining"
Suppression of meetings of miners
and of free speech is attacked on the
grounds that it interposes san arti.
fetal barrier to the growth of the
miners union," which unsettled the
coal industry of the entire country
The report asserts that "the opera.
tors would gain in public confidence
and respect by making the financial
data involved matter of record" II
takes exception to abrogation OF
agreements, declaring that when q
company accepts the profits flowing
from an agreement and abrogates it
as soon as it begins to mean loss, il
is practising bad business ethics"
Abrogation Of the Jacksonville
agreement was condemned. 1T is the
moral aspect of the matter, not the
legal, that we would emphasize" the
report said.
