THE PREAMBLE.-- -o--

'l'hc wsorking class andl the emplloying class have nothing in common.There can Ihe no peace so, long as hunger and want are found amonig mil-lions of working people, and the few, who make up the employing class,have all the good things of life.

Between these two classes a struggle must go on until the w .rkers of theworld organize as a class, take posse-sion of the earth and the machineryof production, and abolish the wage system.

We find that the centering of the management of industries into fewerand fewer hands make- the trade unions unable to cope with the ever-grow-ing Lpwer of the emnplhtying class. The trade unions foster a state of affairswhich allows one set of workers t , be pitted against another set of workersmn the -anme industry, tlhereby hclpini defeat one another in wage wars More-

over, the tratd unions aidl in empllying cla , to misleadl the worker, intothe ,celief that the workin.g ti'. hIi: i inttre.-ts in 'onunlon with their cm-ployers.

town we were met by a mob led by thisofficer, whose: name is Kelly, and Mr.Fred Martin, foreman of the mill at BonAmi and a leading member of the Bap-tist Church. This mob had a large cir-cular saw rigged up in a cart, which fellin behind the vehicles iq which we wereriding, and six or seven men in thecart, using long bolts, began to beat onthe saw, while other members of themob followed along on foot beating tincans, small saws and iron shields, whichlast had been made especially for theoccasion. This they continued doing un-til we were about half way to Carson,when ('has Smith, who was kiled fromamlbush by Deputy Sheriff Del Charlanandt his posse near Merryville last Sep-tember, got in one of our wagons andordered them to stop their infernal rack-et. This order was immealately obeyedand the silence of fear reigned until wereached the outskirts of Carson. whereSmit left us and we were met by ano-ther mob armed with the same kind ofnoise making instruments and led byGeneral Manager Morrison and Super-intendent Crawford of the Central Coaland Coke ('o. About 150 Union men andwomen also met us at Carson.

We stopped our wagons on the publicroad on the outskirts of the town andtried to hold our meetings but, when Irose to speak, the officials of Bon Amiandl ('arson gathered their mobs aroundthe wagon and drowned out my voiceby yelling and beating saws, cans andshields. Seeing that we could stop theirviolence only by violence, we ceasedtrying to sl,"ak and, instead, began asort. oif eircus parade thru the town, usdlrivinil up and dlown the streets cheer-ing for tlhe )ne Big Union and theyrunininxg. along after us and trying todlroi thel 1.

And not an Italian was fied, either,for there were no job-cowards on thatgallery-they were all in the shamelessmob of native born Americans whowere that day, at the beheus of drunkenoverseers, disgracing their revolution-ary forefathers. And, so, whenever Ihear a "native born American" talk-ing about "damn foreigners," I thinkof that day at Bon Ami and Carson,and know that what's troubling himis that his pride has been hurt by somebunch of "foreigners" setting a pacehe did not have the nerve to follow.

Looking back at it all, I only pitythe mob of "freeborn supreme whiteAmericans" who dwell at Bon Ami andC(arson, and I sincerely hope the Asso-ciation's spiritual "police" force willfind the body of the one who fell atGrabow in defense of his Master's"rights" and, keeping from her thetruth of how he died, send it home tothe mother grieving for her boy, there,in Michigan.

THE AMERICAN COSSACK."The man on horseback" has always

typified despotism. Ths means "Si

assassin of discussion and the destroyerof dcmrnoracy. histcorically he has s-

ualdly ceen the amlitiois g.eneral usurp-ing politic'al powers and becoming an

autoc'rat. lie has always been dreaded

by all who have worked for the pro-

,ress of freedom. "The man on horse-
