IS MURDER LESS A CRIME FOR BEING WHOLESALE? What Ls the Government Going To Do About Herrin? Question In Capital. (Capital News Service.) Washington, Aug., 7.?Development in the coal and railroad strike and the problems arising from them have occupied so much attention in Washington that the Herrin murders have apparently been pushed to one side. It is the belief of men prominent in the government, however, that the question there raised is too vital to be long forgotten, and that either Illinois or the United States government must take some drastic a.ction before the American people will allow the matter to rest. It is pointed out that the condemnation, horror, and indignation aroused by the wholesale killing of 18, the -wounding of 54, and the disappearance of 11 workers, on June 22, is not confined to any one section of the country. The press of the United States is practically a unit in its anathmas upon the heads of those responsible, in disgust with the finding: of the coroner's jury, ar.d in its demand that justice he done. A significant fact, it is noted, is the absence of much of any comment from labor papers. That the cause of organized labor has been dealt a powerful blow is conceded *on all sides; that the United States Government must act if the state of Illinois will not, is a demand which comes from leading journals in many states. If newspapers represent public opinion, then neither the murderers nor the attempts to minimize the affair have any sympathy from the great bulk of 'Americans. Editorials from leading papers in practically every state, and many Provinces in Canada, voice so vehement a settlement for punishment for the guilty, that, as one senator put it, "The Federal Government could not ignore the matter if it would." o WASHINGTON COMMENT. "'Fools rush in where angels fearj to tread." There are a lot o* "angelic" legis-j lators in this country who "fear to' tread" anywhere there is a labor vote, because it might not be cast in their direction. There are a few "fools" who don't care whether labor or capital, man or woman, union or corporation votes for them, so long as they do what they believe to be wise, right, and just. There are some journals in this j country which do not care who reads them, so what they publish is honest, from the heart, and not dictated because some one "fears to tread." Hence it is that the words "compulsory arbitration" are being heard more and more, since the United States is having not a taste, but a' full meal of strikes, private wars,! interference with business, and with | living, while several groups of labor anc capital settle their differences by conflict. 4 Compulsory arbitration is a fighting. word to organized labor. It is abhorent in principle to American ideas of justice, that any man, in order to obtain justice, be compelled to do otherwise than is provided in the Constitution. Compulsory arbitra ion might easily be a tool in the hai of either capital or labor which w- ui work great hardship. l. sore afflicted man or nation will try almost any remedy for the affliction. So the "fool" who rushes in where others keep silent is heard, more and more suggesting, not necessarily compulsory- arbitration, but a Surreme Court for Industrial Dis putes, to which all great causes of difference must by law be submitted, and the findings cf which must be . oheyed. Individuals assail the Supreme Court of the United States. But no one defies it. What it says, goes, It is final. And its years of usefulness have shown that it works. Is it, after all, the "rusting of a fool" to wonder if, perhaps, a Supreme Court for labor and capital miaVit not save this countrv more in what it would prevent in financial, economic, moral, and even physical loss than it would lose in substituting due process of law for* the much cherished "right to strike" and "right to lock out?" o Tobacco Market at Olanta. Olianta, Aug., 7.?With two independent warehouses open for a week, big breaks every day, and satisfactory prices being paid for tobacco it seems that Olanta is certain of a business revival. The market here has been closed for the past year or two and its reopening has already brought about an increased volume of business. S. J. Tomlinson, the leading merchant of the town, reports that his sales for the past week are practically aeuoie max 01 ine same week last year. All the big companies are represented by a high-class set of buyers, with instructions to pay the limit. 1 Both house? had big breaks today, some tobacco selling as high as 63 cents per pound and the farmers generally expressing themselves as being highly pleased with the results. The association warehouse opened today with a good amount of tobacco on hand. With both association and i independent warehouses open thi> < year, the merchants are preparing for big business during this season.

Some time ago I was troubled with my kidneys and I had to get up several times during the right. The kidney secretions were scanty and there was a dull ache across the small of my back that annoyed hie. This trouble seemed to tire my system and before I felt any more effects from the weakness I bought a box of Doan's Kidney Pills at Gamble's Drug Store and was greatly benefited. I am satisfied that Doan's are a most reliable kidney remedy." Price 60c. at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy?gef Doan's Kidney Pills?the same that Mr. Hammet had. Foster-Milburn fn.
