Many of these victims of the world-wide class war are awating trial-and have been waiting for many weary months for the speedy trial guaranteed them by the United States Constitution. Others were tried and sentenced to terms ranging from one to twenty years during the period of war hysteria, and appeals in their cases are now being taken from King Capital drunk to King Capital sober. Some of the prisoners have escaped by death, others are dying, many have contracted tuberculosis and other loathsome diseases, and all are suffering untold agony from close confinement in the fetid atmosphere, from intsanmitary and unhealthy surroundings, from poor and insufficient food, and from inhuman treatment accorded them by brutalized guards. Past at tempts to secure bail for all of these workers in jail have not been attended with great success because of the lack of system. In dividuals sought to secure bail for their personal friends, and failing to get the necessary amount they returned what had been collected, thus making their entire efforts fruitless. This was the condition facing the delegates from all the western district organizations of the Industrial Workers of the World when thlny met in conference on July 3 and 4 in Seattle. The delegates solved the problem by an unfailing means Organization. A Bail and Bond Committee was elected to systematize the work of collecting bail and a nation-wide drive has been started to secure the loan of cash, Liberty Bonds and property sufficient to gain the release of all class war prisoners. With practically no advertising Six Thou sand Dollars were raised in the first five days. More than Two Hun dred Thousand Dollars are needed to release those now being held for their Labor activity. Sunms of Five D)ollars and up are accepted as loans, and all cash, Lib erty Bonds or property is tabulated in triplicate one copy going to the person making the loan, another being retained by the Bail and Bond Committee, and the third being filed with the Trades Union Savings and Loan Association of Seattle, with whom all funds, bonds and prop erty schedules will be banked. Only those who have been proved loyal and trustworthy are being sent out as collectors. Everything possible has been done to safeguard this hail anmd bond fund, from the selection of the committee to the choice of the bank. A portion of the fund is being set aside to return loans on demand in case persons who have made them are forced to leave lie country or have other reasons for making a withdrawal. flail will be used to release specified persons where that is desired, but otherwise the release will take place by a blind drawing of names, thus insurring fairness to all prisoners. By common consent the men in \Vichita, launsas, ail will first be released, as they have been held the longest arl jai cotnditionls are worse there than anywhere else in the entire country. This bail has nearly all been subscribed, and the men will b)e mTade accredited collectors when released, and their speedy release will help to set others at liberty. No necessity exists for argument. Your duty is clear. If your ears are not deal to a call from your class, if you feel that an injury to one is an injury to all, if there burns within you the faintest spark of human ily. vyou will see that the men do not remain behind the bars an un necessary minute because you withheld your support.

A peculiar significance attaches to the capture of moonshine stills. in that, although the shortage of sugar is critical, and a subject of governmental concern, the moon shiners seem to have no difficulty in procuring unlimited quantities for the purpose of making the poison which is being peddled in Butte. In a former moonshine raid by the dry squad. a large quantity of sugar was captured which had been purchased of the American Mercan tile company, and now comes a cap ture in which the sugar was pur chased of a merchant who has been convicted of short-weighting and watering oysters, and who is active in Y. M. C. A. affairs, one of the pillars of the Rev. Wolfe's church, and a food "conservator" during the war, and also a member of the alleged "relief" commission. The disclosures made from time to time as the result of these moon shine raids suggests that the gov ernmeut might conserve the sugar supply and curtail the manufacture of poison by stationing some of its operatives in the business establish ments of some of Butte promninent 1,rofiteers.
