A controversy between 23 members of the Richmond Lace works and the company was heard in part in Pro dence Wednesday before Judge Rath- Pun in the superior court on the peti- tion of George A. Wainwright and oth- jers for a preliminary injunction to re- strain the respondent from ejecting the employes from the tenements they oc- cupy in the village of Alton in the town of Richmond. The dispute as to the rights of the company grew out of the situation fol- lowing the national strike of lace workers. The Richmond Lace works owns between 25 and 30 tenements at Alton and these were largely oocupied by the help employed in the factory. The strike started in Aiton about May 14, it appeared in testimony that the | company on June 12 served the usual notice to quit on its tenants, this notice demanding that the housese be vacated on or before July 1. This notice was not preliminary to any court proceed- ings in trespass and ejectment suits but the company claims the riznt to eject the tenants, forcibly if necessary, Testimony was given concgrning letting of the houses. which was fc no definite time, but the rent was paid monthly on the first of each month. The company contends that the ten- ancy is from month to month under | this agreement. It is the contention of the compla: ants that because of what James S Steele, the selling agent of the lace | works, told them, the tenancy was ex- tended to Nov. 1. He told them to go | #head and plant their gardens, it is | claimed. and thev did this, thev say. in accordance with the spirit of the proclamation of the president of the United States.

How one german-American he spells German with a little g and America with a capital A—feels about Germany is shown in following letter to the editor of the Sioux Cil (Towa) Journal T have seen several articles in the Journal about Germans trying to raise Strife in this country. I am a Ger- man by birth but am an American by heart and hand. 1 will tell you why I left Germany. There were ten in our family and we were poor, like the most of my countrymen who came to the good old United States of America to get away from oppression, and it was a hard matter to keep the wolf away from the door at times. When 1 landed in this country I secured work at once and received more money for one month’s work than T got in Germany for one vear's work. I sent for my folks and T am proud that they are all true Amer- ican citizens and will answer the president's call to arms against Ger- many, or any other country when needed “T don’t see how my_countrymen can go back on Uncle Sam. They came here without a cent and made money here; now they wan' to fight the country that feeds them. The kaiser never did anything for them or for me. If he had we would be there vet. All he did was to start this cruel war and starve all our peo- ple there, and make soldiers out of everybody and force them to work for his dirty 12 cents a dav, with a fourth of a pound of meat and a loaf of black bread. I hope ‘to see the day when he is kicked out of Germany and a president put in his place. “You don't see any Americans go- ing over there for jobs or to any other nation. They are happy here and don’t ows any alleigence to any king or kaiser. “T hope Uncle Sam will Hur- rah for President Wilson! “Stop all foreign papers printed in the TUnited States.
