FURRIERS drive
GUNNER AWAY
Sorkin Bloc in Cooper
Union Meet Tonight

The maneuver of sending hired
thugs into the fur market to intimi-
date the fur workers, used as last
resort to bolster up the collapsing
structure of of the Joint Council,
A. F. of L. company union, met its
Waterloo yesterday afternoon when
the furriers revolted and drove a
squad of gangsters out of the "mar-
ket."
Teach Right Wing a Lesson.
In free-for-all battle, which the
furriers decided to make conclusive
despite the squad Of police and re-
serves, who were attempting to halt
it, the squad of right wing hire
lings were taught that the workers
will defend themselves against any
attempt to browbeat them into sub
mission to the thug and boss ruled
Council.
Nat Yacker, who has an odorous
reputation among the furriers, lead
ing a gang of cutthroats, strutted
up to 30th st. and Sixth Ave, where
the workers gather for dinner hour,
and with bludgeons, began to as
sault those too militant in their de-
nunciation of the McGrady- Stetsky
clique, who with the bosses have
destroyed the former good working
standards in the trade.
Drubbing Effective.
The week-old voyages of the
gangster squad thru the market
suddenly hit reef when in yester-
days adventure, the workers turned
on them and drubbed them out of
all ambition to continue their cam
paign of organized terror.
When the police arrived they be-
gan to arrest the workers, most of
whom were members Of the Joint
Board. 1t was only after the de-
termined protests of the workers
that the police were forced to take
into custody two of the gangsters.
They are Glassman and a hireling
strange to, the fur district called
"Phinney."
Sadie Mondell and Celia Rabino-
witt were the two women out of the
four workers arrested. Meyer Fine
man and Mark Boeurum were the
men. Three of these were charged
with disorderly conduct when ar
raigned in Jefferson Market Court
later Fineman, it was learned, was
chosen by the thugs as victim in
a frame-up attempt. They are
pressing felonious assault charges
against him. Bonds of $500 were
put up by the Joint Board for the
appearance of the first three. In
creased bail, the amount not yet
learned, was demanded by the
judge for Fineman.

are protagonists of the open shop.
Both of them believe that one of
the chief functions of government is
to break strikes.
"The workers and poor farmers
cannot expect help from either of
these two parties-the Gold Dust
twins of Wall Street.
"The only party in this election
campaign that stands for the real
interests of the workers is the
Workers (Communist) Party, whose
candidates have a long record of
struggle in behalf of the workers,
whose platform calls for the organ
ization of the workers in their own
behalf to fight the mighty power of
Wall Street, to organize the work
ers in the mining, automobile, tex
tile, and rubber industries into pow
erful militant industrial unions, and
to eventually take over the reigns
of government and build a govern
ment that will serve the interests
of those who labor and not those
who live on the labor of others-a
Workers and Farmers Government.

millions of wage earners and ex-
plotted farmers, prosecuted Negroes,

state of Illinois demanding the re-
lease of Henry Corbishley, Steve

Clergy Returning to Power

MEXICO CITY, July 25.-The
confession" of Jose De Leon Toral,
assassin Of General Oregon, re-
yeals the success of the alliance be-
tween the church hierarchy and the
landowners Of the "Agrarians" in
using the religious inspired murder
to restore the Catholic clergy to
power and as a pretext for persecu-
ton Of the Mexican workers.
Frame Up Against 'Laborites."
Toral. in his confession" as given
out by the authorities today, is
quoted as saying that his religious
feelings were played upon by
manuel Trejp," a mysterious per-
son who is reported to have gone to
the United States. If "Trejo" is an
actual person, it is probable that he
is a member Of the Labor" party
and a victim of the frame-up, with
the purpose of charging that the
labor unions are responsible for the
assassination.
Toral May Not Be Executed
No announcement Of the date of
Tora's trial has been made. The
Catholic Church is trying to save
him, and the announcement Of the
"Agrarisns" that they do not seek
his execution indicates that Toral
may be released or at least his life
spared in return for his valuable
services to the reaetionary forces.

startled at his sudden appearance that

pace, leaving one behind. The cowboy
also decided he wasn't looking for In
dian company and made almost as hasty
a retreat.
George Deputee, for many years a
trader on the Crow reservation who died
several years ago, claimed that about
1888, he witnessed the last battle be-
tween the Sioux and Crows. A party Of
Sioux came from the east across the Wolf
mountains on a %marauding expedition.
When they came within sight Of the
Crow encampment on the Little Big
Horn, however, they decided the risk was
too great and that they would pay q
friendly visit, figuring that according to
the custom among the tribes, they would
receive a number of horses as presents.
Two Raid Camp
But two of the young men would not
consent to so tame q proposal n while
the others watched from the hills, they
crept down toward the encampment n
hid waiting for night to make their raid.
Unfortunately their horses strayed away
and were recognized by the Crows by
their trappings.
Knowing that the Jig was up" the

catch some Grow horses and succeeded
in getting a moun apiece. But the
animals they captured were old ones and
their burst Of speed ended when the
fieeter ponies of their enemies overlook
them.
They escaped into the brush and find
ing a natural embankment they stood
of the Crows for several hours, leaping
up in the air to fire. Two of the Crow
warriors were killed before the Crows
finally counted coup IN the two Sioux.
1t was discovered later that one of the
Crows, Iron Horse, was a brother-in-law
to one of the Sioux, having married a
Grow woman and been adopted into the
Grow tribe. The Sioux on the hill, too
few to attempt the rescue of their COM
rades, scurried away without anything
to show for their expedition.
Newspapers of the time constantly
urged that the government do something
to stop the raids and the indian agents
and officials at army posts occasionally
~endeavored to break up parties of raid
ers. The Old Indians who had had plenty
of warfare in their time were easily held
in check but the young bloods, with am
billions to earn the rank Of warrior or
chief which could only be don by q
series of warlike exploits, were difficult
to restrain. But the course of events as
we'll as the ruthless ways of such old
scouts as Hamilton and Johnson and
some of the old cattlemen finally brought
the guerilla phase of Indian warfare to q
close.
