ILLINOIS COURT DECISION
is HELD DEATH BLOW TO
MOST COMPANY UNIONS

Chicago QLNS). = The Appellate
Court, in an opinion regarded as a
severe blow to so-called independent
unions, has affirmed a decision handed
down early this year by Judge Harry
M. Fisher of the Circuit Court, which
held that labor unions could not incor-
porate as non-proft organizations un-
der Illinois law.
The lower court decision was made
when the Allied Federation of Labor,
an Independent union, was denied a
petition for a writ of mandamus to
compel Secretary of State Edward J..
Hughes to issue a certificate of incor-
poration.
In denying the request for the state
charter, Hughes ruled that the mot
for profit act," as amended in 1887,
did not include labor unions in the
list of organizations covered. His rul-
ing was defended in the courts by
Daniel D. CARMEL, assistant attorney
general.
CARMEL declared that the Appellate
Court decision, the first of it's kind
ever made by court of review, was
Of far-reaching proportions because it
makes illegal most Of the company
unions now in existence in Illinois.
For some time small labor groups,
none of which were affiliated with rec
ognized labor organizations, have been
able to secure charters from the state
for a $40 fee. This enabled such
groups to masquerade as bonafide la
Dor unions. A legal opinion from the
attorney-general's office put stop to
state chartering of dummy" unions
and it is now expected that all char
ters issued prior to that time will be
withdrawn.

A LONG TIME back in the history Of Colorado,
the Espinosas were couple Of dead-tough
fellows who would have been train robbers had
there been any trains to rob; but, lacking trains.
they preyed on prospectors in the mountain fast
neSses of the southwestern section Of the State.
They were killers, too and great nuisance
generally, and finally the governor of the State
did what the governor of Missouri afterwards did
to Jesse James. He placed a reward on the heads
Of the Espnosas, alive or dead, and fellow whose
name has escaped us took the offer literally.
One day this fellow appeared at the State
capitol travelstained and weary, with sack
under his arm and said he wanted to see the
governor. He was admitted to the governors
office and, walking up to the gubernatorial desk,
he said:
"You have reward on the heads Of the
ESpinosaS?"
That's right" said the governor
Here they are, then," said the fellow, shaking
his sack and rolling the heads Of the outlaws out
on the desk like pair Of dice.
The governor had fit.
