CONGRESSMAN KELLEY

says Few WoxOo ON tine LoDOf TrOuble1s
WAsH1NeroN, May o. Congressman
Kelley, Of Pennsylvania, is quoted as say
ing: These labor troubles are primarily
caused by the capitalists, who, refusing to
pay fair wages to American laborers, have
gone abroad and brought to this country
the vilest and lowest class of European
laborers to take the places Of men who can
not and will not live the same as thess
ignorant and brutal creatures do. The
thing to be done is to make eight hours
days work and put in the penitentiary
the capitalist who will permit his ma
chinery to run longer, period than
eight hours per day. Then legislate to ex-
clude from this country the class of men
who are responsible FOR such outreges as
have occurred in Chicago. I have no SYM
pathy with Anarchists, dynamiters or Com
muniste, nor have I any sympathy with
the capitalists who will import labor of
this class rather than pay good wages to
American workmen." Congressman Rice,
of Massachusetts,, said: II believe that
the Government should put down with the
strong arm Of power every attempt at
violence such as has been fomented in
Chicago by those who have come from
Europe" ,r
