ANOTHER "WOBBLY" STRIKE
Because 27 of their number were
convicted by a Los Angeles jury for
violating the crttSiinal syndicalism law
and sentenced to the penitentiary for
terms of from one to fourteen years,
Industrial Workers of the World im
mediately voted for a “protest strike
of five days,” during which time they
w’ere to remain on their jobs, but do
as much damage as possible to ma
chinery and stocks.
The Los Angeles radicals were also
charged with violating the law pro
hibiting the circulation of inflamma
tory literature at Los Angeles. In re
spone to questions from the presiding
judge, the convicted men took the
stand that they wrere martyrs to the
cause and that their imprisonment i
would be speedily avenged by their j
comrades.
While the average man will admit
that any man has a right to strike or
to quit his job if conditions are not
satisfactory, it is a mighty poor work
man who will remain on a job and de
liberately wreck machinery or place
lives in danger by their acts. The
government has been far too tolerant
with these believers in force, and has
coddled them and palliated and con
doned their offenses in an effort to
win them from the vicious ways.
America has no place for malcon
tents of this calibre, and they should
be placed as speedily as posible where
they can do no harm. The free use of
the ballot is untrammeled and is the
recourse for political abuses. A lit
tle of the force advocated by the
Reds, might havea salutary effect.
SEVENTY FOOT WHALE IS
LANDED BY LOCAL MEN
I.ast week Chas. Emsweiler and W.
E. Rich landed a catch of unusual I
proportions, a 70-foot whale, which:
they found floating in the bay and
tied up in the cove at Porcupine creek j
about seven miles down the bay from
town. The whale is evidently of the
humpback species, common in both
the North and South Pacific, and dis
tinguished by its small girth at the
tail, its large pectoral fin, huge scal
loped flippers on the side, and white ,
corrugated stomach.
The sperm whale ranges only in
the arctics and is noticeable for its
huge head, comprising one third of its
length, it very narrow jaw, set with
rows of sharp, ivory teeth, and its
small flippers.
