THE GREEN BAG

Frank Novak was found not guilty. Motions for a new trial were entered as to each, which motions were argued on the 27th day of March, 1906, all being over ruled, and the Gilhooley Case at present stands on a motion in arrest of judgment in order to give the defendants time to prepare a bill of exceptions for the Appellate Court to review. Whatever may be our opinions as to the relative rights of labor or capital, and how

ever much one may sympathize with the honest laboring man struggling honorably and peacably for advancement, no law-abid ing man can say that the hand of the law should be lifted from the slugger or the men who hire him, and all must pray, as does the writer of this chronicle, that the trial which lasted for one hundred and three days was a fair one, that the verdict was a just one, and that the judgment must endure. CHICAGO. ILL., April, 1906. .
