UNIONISTS ALERT
Plot to Legalize "Railroad
ing" Exposed
Charleston, W. Va.—Alert trade
unionists have exposed a plot to leg
alize "railroading" to the peniten
tiary any one who incurs the ill will
of special interests in this state.
The scheme
#would
change the law
so that jurors can be drawn from
counties other than that in which the
alleged crime was committed, and to
give the state the right to ask for
a greater number of postponements
of trials.
It is claimed Judge Damron, of the
Mingo county circuit court, originated
the scheme and presented it to at
torneys for the coal interests. Then
Governor Cornwall inserted it in his
call for a special session of the state
legislature.
In Judge Damron's jurisdiction

The unionists show that if the state
is given unlimited postponements an
individual will be forced to repeated*
ly bring his witnesses to court and
that he will eventually be bankrupt.
The plan to permit jurors to be drawn
from other counties would make it
impossible for an individual to be tri

Workers with the executive board of
the Ohio State Federation of Labor,
held at Columbus, Sunday, September
26, requested the secretary of the
Ohio State Federation of Labor to
urge upon the members of organized
labor the importance of registering

The secretary was also asked to
urge the labor press to point to the
importance of the male members of
organized labor seeing that the wo
men trades unionists and women
members of trade unionists' families
register at the same time that the
men register.
It was likewise suggested that the
labor press could materially assist -in
securing such registration by carrying
the registration days in each week's
issue, together with a short article
urging the importance of registration.
This letter is written you in fulfill
ment of promise made by the secre
tary that the subject of registration,
and its importance in relation to the
non-partisan political campaign, would
be brought to your attention and your
co-operation solicited in bringing
about the very fullest registration of
wage earners and members of their
families of lawful age.
Will you kindly give this your at
tention and prepare from week to
week to have such articles and regis

FAVORS EDUCATION
And Labor Has Done Much
For It, Says Federal
Board
Washington. "No one agency,"
says the press service of the federal
board for vocational education, "has
had so great an influence in perfecting
educational laws as the A. F. of L.,
which sponsored the original free pub
lic school system, the vocational edu
cational law, and the compulsory
part-time school law, all of which di
rectly affect the industrial and com
mercial progress of the nation. The
annual conventions of the Federation
always record its position on pro
posed progressive educatiohal meas
ures."
The federal board expressed its
appreciation of organized labor's sup
port of the board's efforts to estab
lish vocational training schools, and
to rehabilitate ex-service men and
those injured in industrial pursuits
that these injured workers may again
become wage earners rather than de
pendents on society.
UNION PREFERENCE
Urged For in Australia
Sydney, New South Wkles, Aus
tralia.—The New South Wales trade
union movement asks the government
to amend the arbitration act by pro
viding that preference to unionists be
mandatory in all awards, and that the
government, in its administration,
give preference to trade unionists in
all branches of the public service.
The unionists base their claim on
the ground that organized labor sets
the standards of wage earners and
that trade unionists are entitled, by
every moral right, to this recognition.
Attorney General McTieman, of
New South Wales, agrees that this
claim is just. In a recent speech in
this city, he said:
"I think it most outrageous that
any person should deliberately re
main outside the ranks of a union
and then have the 'cheek' to share
the benefits the union has procured.
It is arrogance of a very high order,
indeed."
REGISTER
A. F. of L. Urges Every Man
and Woman to Do So
Washington.—In a circular to the
officials of organized labor, the A. F.
L. national non-partisan political
nmpaign committee says:
'We urge the men and women of
labor to permit no other duty to keep
tlu!m from being the first to register.
'Further, we urge the organization
t' labor to appoint committees to
:nvass their members with the pur
:"se of having every worker enrolled
ii the registration books. As an aid
t. this we shall supply without cost
•in} register cards herewith in quan
t: i ies to meet the needs of your organ
i ation.
"'The cause of justice, the princi
p'!S of democracy, the liberties of the
ople must be upheld at the ballot
in by the people themselves. Organ
labor, true to its traditions and
purposes, calls upon the .millions
.f members to make great sacrifices
.'.her than to lose the chance to vote
this election."
UNIONISM ML DIE
When the lion eats grass like an ox,
And the fishworm swallows the
whale
When the terrapin knits woolen sox,
And the hare is outrun by the snail
When serpents walk upright like men.
And doodlebugs travel like frogs
When grasshoppers feed on the hen,
And feathers are found on the hogs
When insects in summer are rare,
And snuff never makes people
sneeze
W hen tomcats swim in the air,
And elephants roost upon trees
When fish creep over dry land,
And mules on bicycles ride
When foxes lay eggs in the sand,
And women in dress take no pride
When devils we no longer fear,
And girls go to preaching on time,
When billygoats butt from the rear,
And treason is no longer a crime
When humming birds bray like an ass,
And limburger smells like cologne
When plowshares are made out of
And hearts of workmen are stone
When ideas grow in an empty head,
And wool on a hydraulic ram,
Then unionism perhaps will be dead—
But the world won't be worth a dam.

MORE PARDONS URGED
Indianapolis.—Free use of the par
doning power was urged by Governor
Goodrich in a speech before the Amer
ican institute of criminal law.
"After years of experience and a
careful study of the criminal ques
tion," said the governor, "I am fully
convinced that the public interest is
best served, the reform of the pris
oner more certainly attained and the
welfare of the community advanced
by a liberal but discriminating use of
the pardoning power than by its
harsh and restricted use. It is just
as much the duty of the executive to
act and extend clemency when the oc
casion demands as it is for the judge
and jury to convict when the facts
presented show a violation of the

UNIONISTS'
Widows Plead That Justice
Be Meted Out
Bogalusa, La.—Widows of four
trade unionists who were murdered
by a mob last November have asked
Governor Parker to order the state
attorney general to prosecute the
murderers.
The petition states that the men
were slain "without just cause or ex
cuse by employes of the Great South
ern Lumber Company," and that two
grand juries have considered the kill
ings without taking action, and that
the distcrict attorney has admitted
under oath that he did not summon a
state witness but did summon wit
nesses for the defendants, including
the defendants themselves.
The murders were the outcome of
attempts by the lumber company to
destroy trade unionism. After fail
ing to divide the workers on racial
lrnes a lynching party started for the
home of an estimable negro who was
influential among his fellows. The ne
gro hid in the swamps and escaped.
The mob then came to the headquar
ters of the trade unionists and de
manded the negro. They were told
that the man was not there, and they
were invited to search the building.
The lynchers replied with a volley
from shotguns and revolvers, killing
several workers.
The petition states that Robert
Carson, armed with a shotgun, was
