Wilson, secretary of la bor, published here . over the sig nature of John B. Densmore. Sacramento, Cal., Nov. 23. Gov ernor W. D. Stephens, in a state ment today, denied he had indicated to anyone the course he would take in the Mooney case. The governor issued this brief statement: " "There is absolutely no foundation for the published statement that I had indicated the course I would take in the Mooney case." Governor Stephens issued the statement after he had read pub lished reports that he had made a remark! that he "intended to let Mooney hang," which was attribut ed to an unnamed man reputed to be in the confidence of the executive.

"These corrupt forces cover the state of California and labor can ex peeftio justice- from these financial bandits operating under the guise of officialdom, ', unless the ; federal government sstrlpshem of every vestige, iof itathoritj-; and power. Otherwise ' our government is a mockery ,and deserves the contempt of the world. Their business is 'fixing' juries for murderers, wealthy degenerates, .'fences and all the saturanalia of the -underworld, which is the 'basis of - this power prostituted to murder workingmen who may be obnoxious to the open shop movement.' , ' "The, United States government should take complete control of the prosecution of the individuals - ex posed by Mr. Densmore under the espionage act and 'that section of the United States constitution which makes it a felony to deprive any citizdn of his right without due pro cess of law. ' ' "This astounding disclosure-more than justifies the charges we have s repeatedly made for the past few years that we were the victims of a Chamber of Commerce conspiracy. ''But 'I am still under Sentence -of death and the date 6f my murder is FridayDecember 13. - (Signed) "TOM MOONEY." ,. . May Call Strike. New York, Nov. 23.
