SOMETHING FOR THE GOOD AMERICAN TO SERIOUSLY PONDER. The outcome of the first trial of men accused of a part in the Herrin massacre is disheartening, Bays the New York Herald. It was natural o assume that when twenty men were butchered jy a mob on the public highway in broad daylight with hundreds of the murderers neighbors ooking on evidence would be given on which a courageous jury could convict. In this case it has to be supposed either that the jury was unwilling or afraid to bring in a verdict of guilty or that the community failed to supply evidence that would convince of the guilt of the accused. What is most amazing, after all, is the attitude of the eaders of the mine unions. Here was a hideous ragedy. The murderers killing twenty unarmed men whose only offense was that they wanted o work have not been denounced by their union chiefs. Farrington, the boss of the Herrin district, declared after the acquittal of five of the defendants that 'once again the enemies of labor have been defeated.' Never a word of hope that the butchers might be punished. Never a word for law and order. Never an offer to assist justice in the pursuit of the bestial creatures who dragged Ilertin below the level of the Iroquois and the Apache."

Some of them feel sore at the amount which the governmen asks them to pay, and Uncle Sam seems an insatiable creditor who never ceases to hound them.

They would gladly enough such an assessment if could only climb Eiy that class. The income they tax demand searches a mans soul to see if he is honest. If he wants to cheat he may often do so without getting caught And some people dodge part of their burden without really meaning to. It is natural to exaggerate ones losses and exemptions and minimize gains and assets. The income taxpayer instead of fretting over his bothersome return or begrudging the payment demanded should feel a sense of pride. The summons to pay this tax and from which the majority of his fellow citizens are exempt means that he achieved more than average success for which he should be glad and thankful.
