P. K. Mohr represents the Central Labor Council of Seattle and is one of the oldest active members in the Seattle unions.  Mr. Mohr became a charter member of the first Bakers’ Union in 1889 and was its first presiding officer.  He was elected delegate to the old Western Central Labor Council in 1890.  At one time Mr. Mohr was president of the Seattle Labor Council.  At the present time he is president of the Bakers’ Union.

Such are the men who have studied the travesty on justice in the great labor trial at Montesano.  “Not Guilty” is their verdict.  Does it mean anything to you?

Wesley Everest

Torn and defiant as a wind-lashed reed,
Wounded, he faced you as he stood at bay;
You dared not lynch him in the light of day,
But on your dungeon stones you let him bleed;
Night came ... and you black vigilants of Greed,... 
Like human wolves, seized hand upon your prey,
Tortured and killed ... and, silent, slunk away
Without one qualm of horror at the deed.

Once ... long ago ... do you remember how
You hailed Him king for soldiers to deride—­
You placed a scroll above His bleeding brow
And spat upon Him, scourged Him, crucified...? 
A rebel unto Caesar—­then as now—­
Alone, thorn-crowned, a spear wound in His side!

—­R.C. in “N.Y.  Call.”
