ing. The preamble and resolutions
were adopted:
Whereas, the present manner OF re-
muneration for the type composition
owing to the system of measurement
is unjust and inequltabie for both en-
ployer and employee. and, whereas:
Differences capable OF adjustment
between the employing printer, the
conpostor, the publisher and the type
founders;
Therefore be 1t resolved, That tht
lower case alphabet Of all faces OF
body types shall not measure less than
fifteen lower case letter Ms of its own
face, that the thirteen letters of the
alphabet set most frequentl, C, d, g, /
s, IN, n, h, o, u, t, q. z, shall equal the
leng tn of the remaining thirteen let
tiers Of the alphabet.
The conference arrived at its con
illusions without difficulty. This i!

of the country that there has been &
meeting of the employers and employees
and manufacturers on an equal footing
to adjust trade differences with result!

NEW YORK, Nov. 4.-At democratic

given out based on an investigation Cl
John |. Davenport's methods, closing as
follows:
"Thc important fact is disclosed that
Davenport has his plans all laid to arrest
some 6O,000 men at the polls on election

all possible secrecy and he is leaving no
stone unturned to help the Republican
party in it's desperate attempt to carry
New York State. No apprehension is
felt by the Democratic national commit

can accomplish much. The Democratic
organization of the City of New York is
fully alive to the situation. 1t has met

United states Marshals Will Not
he Allowed to Interfere.

LITTLE Rock, Nov. 1.-The Demo-
cratic state committee has issued to the
Arkansas election officers a circular de-
6ning the rights Of the United States ST.
pcrvisors aud deputy marshas at the
elections which, after outlining those
rights and duties, continues;
at is said that United States deputy
marshals will be appointed at various
precincts in this state and take charge Of
elections. There is no authority in the
Federal statutes which authorizes this
except in cities of 90, 900 or more inhabi-
tauts. Hence the only place in Arkansas
where deputy marshals can be appointed
is in the city of Little Rock. Therefore,
if any deputy United States marshalS
should be appointed anywhere except in
Little Rock it would be without ar-
thority of law and it will be the duty OF
peace officers of the country to uphold
and maintain the state law i'll keeping
the peace at voting precincts, and deputy
marshals can exercise no more authority
at election precincts or voting places
than any other citizens. If they should
undertake to take charge of voting pre-
cincts or booths, or attempt officially tc
do anything in controlling or influencing
the election or violate in any manner th'
state statutes they should be arrcstcdhl

A COLORED MANS VIEW.
MIR. HarrisOn's Election Would
Mean Disaster.

DURHAM, N. c., Nov. 2.-Rev. Andrew
II. Chambers, pastor of the Methodist
church here, a prominent colored man,
has written an open letter to the Prcsi-
dent in which, after showing that the
force bill would take the control of the
elections from the people and turn it
over to the benchciaries of the party in
power, he tells the President that his
utterances on the Force bill leave pain
lul uncertainty as to his meaning. He
writes the President that a mon. partisan
commission" is impossible and says the
Force bill would be calamity to the
colorcd people, and would tend to reduce
the white man to the level OF the negro
instead of clcvating the negro to the
level of the white man.
Chambers also tells the President that
his policy is one of narrow sectionalism
and partisan prejudice that would upset
business and ncighborly relations be
tween people and lead to disorder anG
bloodshed, and concludes: 81 must re
gard your candidacy, Mr.. President, as {
misfortune, and your election would b.
irrctrievabe disaster.
