; ADVERTISEMENTS Another Outrage (Organized Farmer, Wausau, Wis.) You will remember- that about a | month ago a bunch of cowardly skunks perpetrated an outrage on Herbert S. Bigelow that was con- ‘demned by every decent person from - the president down. ' But in this . week’s issue of the Glenwood Herald we find that ét, with but faintly dis- guised glee reports a similar outrage committed in Osakis, Minnesota. A " man was tarred and feathered on ac- . ¢ = f i & s ; count of pro-German utterances. We < - - 4y < i know nothing about the party and : : | . ’ , / ’ | care less, but we do mourn that a = 3 ; = I/ / p 'r'|‘| handful of disreputables are permit- : / I - UK &, f £ g . ted to besmirch the good name of 4 ' e = 4 ' Minnesota without receiving the unit- o g ed censure of the press of the state. Ty =5 s If the man did wrong, deal with g ; him according to law, as he undoubt- edly richly deserved, but protect even the meanest against mob violence. From tar and feathering to lynch- ing is only a step and a short one at that. One illegal act unpunished breeds contempt for law and order and- begets more dastardly crimes.e And don’t forget, the same crowd that can today, beat, tar and feather,” or kill a pro-German or an I W. ‘W. and - get away with it, will tomor- - row, when properly riled up by those who profit thereby, do the same to a Nonpartisan or an Equity member. We™ must, especially during war times, guard against these cowardly outbreaks and when done, the guilty should be found out and dealt with to the full extent ,of the law. Cap- italism has used these methods when- ever profits were threatened. Let the rank and file guard its meanest members against them for fear that its best may also become victims. / — Prospects were never brighter for the N. D.
