the member* of the labor anions
who so generously came to the

whom they believed at the
of their arveet to be inno-
-oent of any orime.
(t wee, indeed, a sad blow to

many special assessments were
levied apon the members of dif
Cerent organizations to help de-
fray the heavy expenees of the
{pending trial of tbe McNamara
brothere, whom they felt con
▼faced were the victims of a con
spiracy by organised capital.
Their oonfeeeion came as a com
¡píete and astounding surprise to
'the labor world, aad will give to
Harrieon Gray Otis and other
^oapitslists in California, who are
avowed enemies of anion labor,
a new and formidable dab with
which to fight and crush the
"labor traste," as they term the
^various anions, not only of the
Western States, bat of the whole
•ooantry.
It is a remarkable occurrence,
especially under the present state
of affairs, that Otis, after quietly
remaining in the background
over since tbe trial stsrted, has
after the confession of
-the Me Ñamaras, came out witb
a weak and hypocritical state-
tnent that he is in sympathy
witb organized wage earners,
aad that his former attitude of
aroee purely from
unselfish motive to see that
labor unions obtained justice
m tbe public by assisting in

such men its the McNsmaras.
Notwithstanding this concilia-
of Gen. Otis, organised

now and in the future. The
working people of this country
be so easily hoodwinked

esteat aceuaed by the capitalistic
prsss as being tbe foal perpetra-
tors of the dastardly deed, aad
suffered tbe odium of having at
leaat a erimiual knowledge by
roaay of thoae who ware not
friends of the Typographical
Union. But at tbe same time,
ia the face of theee undeserved
aeoasations, President Lynch aft
once wired the printers of Los
Angelen to lend all the assist-
ance possible towards saving the
Tlmss from missing sa isaae,
though It was aa unfair papor
and had always been a most bit-
ter opponent of the printers' or-
ganisation and of every other
existing union.
Of eonree the printers of tbe
entire country are proud that the
etamina for the Loe Aagelee
affair ia lifted in ite entirety from
their shoulders, and this fse ing
emanates not only from the
hearts of a large majority of
employed printers, bat of ths
employers also, and tbe city and
couatry papers will uodoubtedly
be among the first to extend
their sinoere congratulations a
the happy ontoome.

Athens," and the Persian army waa cut to pieces in the battle
of Marathon. Hannibal laid his hand on the altar and swore
vengeance against Rome, and the Carthagian army was annihilated
on the plains of Italy. Many a nation has gone to destruction or
wasted its energy in blindly following its leaders in an effort to
avenge grievances.
