WANT TO BUY AND SELL YOU , FIRST AND SECOND HAND GOODS ACCOMMODATING CLERKS WILL SERVE YOU WAKUKN'S ADDIIKSS (Continued from Saturdav'B News.) This question involved In thtB case la whether there is one law for the worklnnman and another law for the rich employer. The supreme courts decision In the famous kidnapping conspiracy In Colorado and the action if high government and state onlcials In protecting a fugitive republican toHticlan, charged with murder, lends color to my contention that there is 3iie Interpretation of the law for the noor and another one for the rich. The action of the governor of New Jersey in refusing to iBsue requisition napers for Armour, the Chicago meat nacker, who was charged, by the New Jersey prosecutors with violat ing the anti-trust laws of that state b a convincing argument that there b one law for he poor and none for the rich. The methods adopted by the government's attorney In his prosecution of me and his refusal to .uke cognizance of similar acts on the nnrt of hankers and others, streng- hens our argument that there Is twb wholly different kinds, of law in this "ountry; and your decision will, if that decision upholds the action of he lower court, add to this belief n the public mind. rvr- UMm IpF EVERY MEMBER Vi FOR SALE BY THE Roseburg Rochdale COMPANY The government's attorney empha sizes the fact that this reward offer s printed In red. Out of curiosity. asked a number of the lending nk manufacturers in the United States for what color of printing Ink 'hey had the greatest demand, and they replied, without a single ex ception, that they sold more red Ink ban oil others combined, save one ilack. Black Is the emblem of plra- y and has been since long before the lays of Captain Kldd. Under Hs able folds march the land thief, the tredatory rich, the employer of little hlldren, those who--4jarter justice, ho Wall Street speculator the petty rambler and grafter, and all those vho labor and oppress the poor. Hack Is the color of death. Red on he other hand, is the color of life; t glows with vltnllty; it is the badge f universal kinship. It has been 'rom the days of Spartacus, down nrough the ages, the emblem of re rolt against tyranny. Umlor the rimson banner the revolutionary mtrlols of 1776 fought and won their inttles against the English king. Longfellow's inspiring poem to 'ulnskl, the Polish patriot who gave ls llfo for American independence, mmortnllzes the red banner: of the class character of the federal Judiciary. Dissenting from the opin ion of this very court, in a case wherein a working girl waB pitted against a grout corporation, Judge Thayer Bald: "I dissent from thusa doctrines which seem to have been formulated with an eye mainly to the protection of the employers and with too little regard for the situa tion and rights of the employes." Ab a militant member of the working class I frankly confess that I expect nothing from this court. A court of justice, so-called, which turns away a mangled working child empty-hnnded. In defense- of capi talist class property against work ing class life and limb, Is not apt to look with favor upon me in revolt against such shocking inhumanity and the "system responsible fur it. Where, before the nltnr, hung The blood-red banner, that with prayer And been consecrated there Pnl-n ih f hnnnai- fi rw1 it n'ni. Thou should st press the soldier's bier, nd the muffled drum should beat Pt t Iia 1 rnnrl (if nwm rn fit 1 foot Then this crimson flag shall bo Martial cloak and snroua ror tnee. The warrior took the banner proud, And It was his martial cloak and shroud! The original flag of the American revolution was red. The stars and -itrlpes were added later by our rebel forefathers to distinguish It from he national emblems of other coun tries, it Is a slginflcant historical fact that red predominates In the Dags of all countries with one excep tion Russia. It is not surprising, therefore, that the government's at torney who sails under the black flag, should serK to cast aspersions on the red banner. If the liberties brought with the blood of our forefathers, who fought under the red flag are to be pre served it will be done by the men who today march under the crimson banner. The theory of lnw that a man Is presumed to be Innocent until proven guilty was wholly overlooked in my trial at Fort Scott, I was convicted and sentenced before I entered the court room. I was not prosecuted as a presum ably innocent man charged with an alleged violation of the law. I waB prosecuted by partisan politi cians, before a partisan jury, three nt whom it was proved later decclar ed they were prejudiced against me, and before a partisan Judge and on perjured testimony. Hut. this 1b not the first time in the history of the world that this same farce has been enacted. When the ruling clnss of any epoch is forced to used such means to bring about the imprison ment of a man advocating revolution ary doctrines, It has always fore shadowed the dawn of a new era. St'vernl million men and women In the United Slntes today bollevc that 1 have been prosecuted In thf fedornl courts because of my poli tical beliefs. It Is true I am In revolt aglnst the present caiiatilistlc regime of graft ind boodle and I have dedicated my life to the Revolution of Tomor row. Our cause- will triumph In merlca just as It Is winning in Germany. France and England. The Mllwnnklo Socialist victory is a prophecy of what will happen throughout the nation at no distant day. I know that is the settled pol icy of this court. I understand wh its decisions are in the interests o! the employer aud against the work ing man and working woman. You are serving those to whmr you are Indebted for your posltior and responsible for your power. 1 am simply trying to show to the working class world, which embrace: a great majority of the population the character of the federal court, tr which must be submitted their liber ties and their lives. The fedora1 court under capitalist misrule is es- septlally capitalistic in Its sympathies. its interests and Its decisions. In this Important work of educat ing the working class as to the true character of the courts, you are holp Ing riie. It was the Dred Scott de cision that hastened the overthrow of chattel slavery, and as history repeats itself, we may confidently ex pect that tho decision of the supremo court in the now famous kidnapping conspiracy, backed by the federal court's decisions in all other labor cases, will precipitate the downfall of the mill, factory, mine ami farm of wage slavery. When tho toilers once understand the true situation, they will realize that there can he no relief from judicial despotism un til they use the power latent In Them selves to abolish the present Inqul tous system, based upon the legal ized robbery of the nation's tollers and producers in which the coin s are mere creatures of capitalist claas rule and instruments of working class subjection. These worklngtpon will one day learn to choose their own judges and while these judges may know little of the Intricacies of law and the chicanery of technical ity they have an inherent- sense of justice and they may be depended upon, to eerve their brothers. Personally, it is a mntter of no consequence to :ue what this court may decide in this case. If this court concludes to sanction the senn dalous methods employed to secure my conviction and the outrageous sentence imposed upon me for the commission of what Judgs Pollock termed "a mere misdemeanor.' shall consider It the proudest dnv of my life when I enter the Jail at Fort Scott, imprisoned because of my defense of tho poor and oppress ed.
