As OUR readers are aware, the
LEDGER has not heretofore been an
ardent supporter of the Hon.
Richard H. Norton in his contests
for the Democratic nomination for
congress; in fact, we have uniform
ly preferred some one else. We
have reached the conclusion, how
ever, that Mr.. Norton is making an
able, industrious and painstaking
representative, and that it would
be for the best interests of the peo-
pie generally and the party partic-
ularly to give him another term in
Congress.
1t is fact well known that a
new member cannot do much. 1t
takes the greatest part of a session
to learn the ropes, so to speak,
and If he makes himself too active
on the floor of the House, the older
members are inclined to snub him.
There is no doubt that the longer a
member remains in Congress the
more influential and useful he be-
comes. We are informed reliably
that Mr.. Norton is attending assid-
uously to his duties, and is max
ing an excellent impression on old
Congressional observers. He has
spoken couple of times in the
House, and each time was listened
to attentively and attracted atten-
ton. The speeches he made were
a credit to him and the people he
represents.
Under the circumstances we be-
ieve it to be 10 the best interests of
the party that Mr.. Norton should
be reelected, and a denomination
by the Unanimous voice of his par
ty would add to his prestige and
strength.
Let us have Norton for another
term, and let the Democrats re-
nominate him by acclamation and
restore harmony to the Seventh
District of Missouri.

Thousand Employees Meet and Deter
mine to Demand Eight Hours-News
from New England-A Lively Outlook.
CHICAGO, April 2s.-Both the Boss Car
penters' association and the committee
from the carpenters council failed in their
efforts TO reach settlement with the mas
ter carpenters at the meeting Saturday
afternoon, and the strike will be continued
indefinitely against the master carpenters.
The committee from the new Boss Carpen-
ters' association had a brief conference
with the directors of the old association.
The old association absolutely refused to
arbitrate with the committee from the new
association, and the conference ended.
The Conference with strikers.
Then began the meeting with the car.
penters council The conference was a
stormy one and terminated in considera-
BILE disorder when member of the Master
Carpenters association moved that the as
ISOLATION should not recognize the union.
The resolution was carried with a unanim-
ity that was ominous and the Carpenters
council left, vowing that the strike would
be extended into all trades, so far as the
master carpenters are concerned.
The citizens committee did not mate
rialize at all, and the Master Carpenters
association held a sort of indignation meet
ing over their failure to come forward.
Packing House Men Moving.
Fully 1000 packing house men, by a
unanimous vote, decided at meeting yes
terday afternoon to go out on strike May
l, unless their request for an eight-hour
day was complied with. There are about
5000 men employed in this industry, and
interviews with men who work i'll the
houses are not indicative of strike The
thousand above noted, however, may set
pretty big strike in motion.
pretty big strike in motion, and some Of
the papers here are almost positive that
such an infection is in pickles for this

Another Case of Turbulence.
1t appears that a carpenter cannot even
do a job for himself without charging
union rates. Frank Pink was laying
sidewalk in front of his residence at 2S3
Newberry avenue Saturday when crowd
of strikers attacked him and knocked him
down. The police were notified of the as
sault, and two of the strikers named Ed

up. They will be arraigned before Justice
