Williston Socialist Column on Boston Labor Case Debates
The column questions justice in the Boston labor case surrounding Lawrence mass strikes and the Woolen Trust. It cites indictments against Wood Ettor and Giovannitti, a dynamite plot, and alleged manipulation of public opinion by mill owners before urging readers to choose socialism and justice. It covers Halvor Halvorson speaking for Woodrow Wilson and the Socialist invitation to debate in Williston.
