The passing of tho elk and the great demand made by tho members of tho Klk lodge for teeth for embloniB have boosted tho price." The traveler recited an Incident of an Oklnhomnu who bought n robe cov ered with elk teeth fiom u Wlchltu Indian for $100. He cut off the teeth Mid cleaned up $2,200 on the deal. A Drama on the Street. A remarkable coincidence occurred At San Hornardino, Cul , one day late ly, whereby a couple about to bo di vorced were happily brought together igaln. Mis. Walter Preston was on her way to the court to securo a di vorce against her husband when her little daughter darted In the path of an onrushlng motor car. Tho moth er's BctenniM attracted tho attention of n man who dashed In front of the machine, bcIzciI the tittle girl nnd leaped to safety as tho automobile shot by. Tho rescuer proved to be tho husband and father. lCxplauntlous wero soon made, and tho two mado their way to tho attorney's office, tvhero Mrs. Preston toro up tho di vorce complaint. Don't Weep Somo pcoplo Bwcll up on "amotion" brewed from ubsoluto untruth. It's nn old trick of the lenders of tho Labor Trust to twist facts and mako the "sympathetic ones" "weep nt tho Ice house." (That'B part of the tale further on.) Gompeis cf al sneer nt, Bplt upon and defy our courts, seeking Bynipathy by falsely tolling tho peoplo tho courts woro trying to deprive them of free speech nnd fieo press. Men can speak freely and print opin ions freely in this country and no court will object, but they cannot be allowed to print matter as part of a criminal conspiracy to injui'o and ruin other citizens. Gompeis nnd his trust associates' started out to ruin the Ducks Stove Co., drive its hundreds of workmen out of work nnd destroy tho value or tho plant without regard to tho fact that hard earned money of men who worked, had been Invested there. Tho conspirators wero told by the courts to atop theso vicious "trust" mothods, (efforts to break tho firm that won't como under trust rule), but instead of stopping they "dare" tho courts to punish them and demand now laws to protect thorn In bucIi do Btructlvo nnd tyrannical acts as thoy may deslro to do. The reason Gompers and his band perblbted In try ing to ruin tho Uucka Stove Works wus becauso tho stovo company insist ed on tho light to keep somo old em ployees at work when "do union" or dered them dlbcharged and bomo of "do gang" put on. Now let us reverse tho conditions nnd have a look. Supposo the company had ordered tho union to dismiss certain men fiom their union, und, the demand being re fused, should institute a boycott against that union, publish its uaiuo in nn "unfair list." Instruct other man ufacturers all over tho United States not to buy tho labor or that union, liavo committees call at stores nnd threaten to boycott K tho merchants sold anything mado by that union. Picket tho factotlea whoro members work and slug them on tho way home, blow up their houses nnd wreck tho works, and even murder a few mem bers of tho boycotted union to teach tn6m they must obey tho ordera of "organized Capital?" v. It would certainly be fair for tho company to do these things If lawful for tho Labor Trust to do them. In such a case, under our laws tho lioycolted union could ppply to our courts and tho courts would order tho company to ceaso boycotting and trying to ruin theso union men. Sup poso thoreupon tho company should sneer at tho court and in open defiance continue tho unlawful acta In a per sistent, carefully laid out plan, pur posely Intended to ruin tho union nud force Its members into poverty What a howl would go up from tho union demanding that tho courts pro tect them and punish their law-breaking oppressors. Then they would praiso tho courts and go on earning n living protected from ruin nnd happy in tho knowledge that tho peoplo's courts could defend them. How could any of us receive nrotcc- tlon from law-breakers unless tho courts havo power to, nnd do punish such men? The court Is placed In position where It must do one thing or the other punish men who persist In defying Its peace orders or go out of service, let anarchy reign, and the moro powerful destroy the weaker. Peaceful citizens stmtnln tho courts as their defenders, whereas thieves, forgers, burglars, crooks 'of all kinds nud violent members of labor unions, hato them nnd threaten vlolenco if their memben nro punished for hi dik ing tho law. Thoy want tho courts to let them go fr"o and nt tho saino tlmo demand punishment for othor men "out Bldo do union" whon thoy brenk tho law.

Occasionally we meet people who spend half their tlmo tolling whnt they arc going to do nnd tho other half explaining why they didn't do It upright citizens. Tho noisy, violent ones get into ofllco nnd tho leaders of tho great Labor Trust know how to mass this kind of men, in labor con ventions and thus carry out tho lead ers' schemes, frequently abhorrent to tho rank and tile: so it wus nt tho late Toronto convention. Tho paid delegates would applaud nnd "resolute" ns Gompers wanted, but now nnd then somo of tho real work tngmen insist on being heard, some times at tho risk of their lives. Dolegato Kgan Is reported to have said at the Toronto convention: "If the officers of tho federation would only udhero to the law wo would think a lot moro of them." Tho Grand Council of tho Provincial Worklngiiien'a Ass'n of Cauada has declared In favor of covering nil con nections with unions in tho U. S., say ing "nny union having its seat of Gov't in America, and pretending to bo International in its scope, must light Industrial battles according to Ameri can methods. Said methods havo con sequences which nro nbhorrent to tho law-abiding peoplo of Cnnada Involving hunger, misery, riot, bloodshed nnd murder, all of which might bo termed as a result of tho practical war now in progress in our fair provinces nnd directed by foreign emlisarles of the United Miners of America." That Is nn honost Canadian view of our infamous "Labor Trust." A few days ago tho dally papors printed tho following: (Ily tho Associated Press.)) Washington, D. C, Nov. 10. Char acterizing tho attltudo of Samuel Gom pers, John Mitchell and Frank Mor rison of tho Amerlcnn Federation of Labor In tho contempt proceedings In tho courts of tho District of Columbia, In connection with the Ducks' Stovo and rango company, as "a willful, pre meditated violation of tho law," Simon Hums, genoral master workman of tho general nssombly, Knights of Labor, has voiced a severe condemnation of theso threo loaders. Mr. Hums ex pressed his conlldonco In courts In gen eral mid in those of tho District of Columbia in particular. AITI'.OM I) IIV DIU.eOATLS. This robuko by Hums was in his an nual report to tho general assembly of his organization. Ho received tho hearty approval of tho delegates who heard It read at their annual meeting In this city. "Thero Is no trust or combination of capital in tho world," said Mr. Hums, "that violates laws oftener than do the trust labor organizations, which resort to moro dishonest, unfair mid dlshon orablo methods toward their competi tors than any trust or combinations In tho country." Mr. HuniB said tho action of "these so-called loaders" would bo harmful for years to como whenever attempts wero mado to obtain labor legislation. "Tho Labor Digest," a reputablo worklngman's paper, says, as part of an article entitled "Tho beginning of tho end of Gomporslsm, many organ izations becoming tired of tho rulo-or-ruin policies which havo been on forced by tho president of tho A. F. of L." "That ho has maintained his leader ship for bo long n tlmo in tho fnco of his stubborn clinging to policies which tho more thoughtful worklngmen havo Been for years must bo abandonod, has been on account partly of tho sontl montnl feeling on tho part of tho or ganizations that ho ought not to ho do posed, and tho unwillingness of tho men who woro mentioned for Llio plnco, to accept n nomination in opposition to hlm. In addition to this, thoro ls.no dunylug tho shrewdness of tho loader of tho A.

"That his long leadership, and this apparent impossibility to fill his placo has gone to his head, and mado him imagine that ho Is much greater a man than ho really is, is undoubtedly tho case, and accounts for the tnctlcs ho has adopted In dealing with questions before congress, whero ho has unnecos sarlly antagonized men to whom or ganized labor must look for recogni tion of their demands, and whero labor measures aro olten opposed on account of this very antagonism, which would otherwlso receive support. "Thero Is no doubt but whnt organ ized labor In this country would be much stronger with a leader who was moro In touch with conditions ns they actually exist, and who would bring to tho front tho new policies which organ ized labor mti3t adopt If It expects to oven maintain its present standing, to sny nothing of making future progtess." Wo quote portions of another article, a reprint, from tho samo labor paper: "Organized labor, through its lead ers, must recognlzo the mistakes of tho I ast If they expect to perpetuate their organizations or to develop tho move ment which they head. No movonicnt, no organization, no nation can develop bojond tho Intellects which guide theso organizations, and If tho leaders aro dominated by a selfish motive the organization will becomo tinged with a spirit of selfishness, which has novor appealed to mankind In nny walk of llfo at any tlmo blnco history began. "It can bo bald In extenuation of cer tain leaders or organized labor that tho precarious position which thoy oc cupy ns loaders has had a tendency to cause them to lose sight or tho object behind tho organization. Tho natural Instinct in man for power nnd position Is In no small mensuro responsible for tho mistakes of tho leaders, not ncccs hailly In labor unions alone, but In overy branch or society.
