A White Flag

When Attorney General Daugherty secured a temporary Federal injunction against the striking shopmen in the great railway strike last Summer, all the Railroad Brotherhoods vowed revenge. They got up a movement to impeach Mr. Daugherty for malfeasance in office, but it collapsed without proving a single charge against him. Still they kept up a guerrilla shop strike on many roads and fought the issue with the best legal talent at their command, hoping to prevent the Attorney General from making the injunction permanent. Now--just as their case was about to be heard--the lawyers for the shopmen have run up the white flag and withdrawn from the case, thus allowing it to go by default.
