Kansas Industrial Court Criticised.
Crowd Assembled With Band
Playing Anthem.
' G1EARD, Kan., April 12. Alexander
M. Howat. president of the Kansas
Mine workers, addressing miners to
day from the balcony of the county
jail, where he is confined for con
tempt of court for refusing to testify
before the Kansas industrial relations
court, attacked Governor Allen and
the industrial court law.
Howat, permitted by the sheriff to
address the crowd which had gath
ered as a protest against his incar
ceration, and three other district of
ficials, referred to Governor Allen as
"that skunk, that tyrant, that would
be destroyer of organized labor, that
oppressor of human rights."
Acting on a decision made at a
meeting Sunady at -Franklin, a crowd
of miners mobilizes near Girard and
marched into town. Led by a special
committee flourishing American flags
and banners, followed by a band, the
procession circled the courthouse and
finally congregated in front of the
jail. The band was playing the
"Star-Spangled Banner" when the
procession halted.
Howat spoke for an hour. He was
repeatedly cheered by the crowd.
"We won't recognize this court,"
Howat said, referring to the court of
industrial relations, before which he
refused to appear as a witness. "It
is composed of three corporation law
yers, appointed by that skunk of a
governor, Allen."
PITTSBURG, Kan., April 12. An
injunction restraining officers of
Kansas mine unions from fining
members or officials who appear as
witnesses before the new Kansas in
dustrial relations court was issued
today by District Judge Curran, who
last Friday sentenced Alexander M.
Howat, president of the Kansas min
ers, and three other union officials to
jail for contempt of court.
At their convention' here recently
the miners voted to assess fines
against any member who appeared
before the' tribunal.
A number of union members have
testified in the court's investigation
of the Kansas coal Industry.
The number of idle miners was
placed at 9000 tonight by George
Richardson, commissioner of the coal
operators' association. Seventy-seven
mines were reported idle and 13 as
being' able to keen runninjr.

Illinois Governor Inveighs Against
"Orgy of Spending" in Address
on Eve of Primary.
CHICAGO. April 12. The question
of the high cost of living will not be
solved until taxes are reduced. Gov
ernor Lowden of Illinois, republican
presidential candidate, said today in
an address on the eve of the Illinois
presidential primary.
"There is no genius, no statesman
anywhere, who can devise any system
of taxation by which one body pays
those taxes," he said. "They diffuse
themselves through all classes. They
are passed on, and you cannot pre
vent it by law, from the manufacturer
to the wholesale dealer, until when
they reach the consumer, those taxes
are paid over and over again by him.
"The high cost of living, in turn, re
lates itself to all the questions of un
rest which so much vex us in these
troublous times. There is but one
place to begin readjustment and re
construction, and that is in Washington.
"Let us get back to sanity, to econ
omy, let us get away from this orgy
of spending."
