GOOD AND BAD LUCK.

"IvanhOe'' Answers Several Members Who
Called Him Down Recently.
DEAR H. l.. G. FRTENDs-Some time ago
/ wrote communication on good and bad
luck and it seems there were exceptions
taken to my opinions by Evening Star, !"
"Ardys" and several others. and they
gave me to understand that if did not
prosper in the world 1t was due to my
Encouragement and want of proper
pluck, and someone said there was no
such thing as luck.
Now / think that luck and pluck 90 to-
pether. But there can be such a thing as
bad luck when YOU use all the pluck you
have. or in other words it is either
good or bad fortune. So powerfully
does fortune sway the destnies of men,
that by putting a silver spoon in ones
mouth and a wooden one in another that
some of our most sagacious men in the
past seemed to be inclined to regard luck
as he first element in their worldly sucl
cess. For experience, sagacity. energy
and enterprise amount TO nothing If
coupled to an unlucky star. And how
else can IL be If it is not by freak of for
tune Tor luck that some men are en-
riched and made famous without any ex-
ertion and while others with ten times the
capacity and knowledge are kept at the
bottom OF the ladder? There are several
reasons to show that there is snch a thing

LABOR FORCES MEET.
Opposition to President GOmDers Early
Manifested at Chicago

CHICAGO, ILL.,, Dec. 1.-THE thirteenth
annual convention Of the American
Federation Of Labor opened in the City
Council chamber to-day. Over ninety
delegates from all parts of the country
were present when President Sam
uel GOmpers called the conven-
ton to order. There was an
parent a feeling among the
Western delegates that the honor of this
presidency OF the Organization, which
has remained i'll the East for several
years, should be conferred on a Western
leader, and gossip WAS current in the
convention hall as to a strong fight at
the time of the election of officers. A
delegate high in the order admitted
that there was considerable dissatisfac-
ton among the Western unions.
A parade had been planned for this
morning, but because of the bad wealth
er the idea was abandoned and the del
egates marched from their headquar-
ters to the council chamber without dis
play.
Gov. Altgeld and Mayor Swift had
been invited to speak at the opening
session, but at the eleventh hour tbey
were informed that they would not be
permitted to address the delegates. The
provision in the federation's con-
stitution prohibiting addresses by
men holding public positions: but
7. j. Mas, secretary of the Chicago
arrangements committee, intimated that
the affair had grown out OF the fight Oh
President Gompers. Gov Altgeld was
not informed that his presence was not
desired until just before the convention
WAS called to order.
w. L. Pomeroy welcomed the dele
gates in a lengthy speech in which he
set forth the pitiable condition of many
OF Chicago's laboring men. Ten thou
sand hungry, homeless men will well
come your coming" said the speaker,
land will expect you to sound to the
nation the note OF alarm and will look
TO YOU for aid in their present desperate
condition."
The opposition TO Mr.. GOmpers began
10 make itself manitestths morning The
opposition is endeavoring to coalesce on
NJ. n. Madden. Il prominent local
unionist, and one of the leaders of the
Typographical Union. He has consid-
cradle popularity and recently won a
great victory at the state federation
convention at Galesburg over the
forces of GOV. AHgeld Gompers'
opponents claim that his popularity is
on the wane, that he was compelled to
run three or four times before being
elected delegate to the present con-
vention, although hitherto he has been
able to get sufficient votes on the first
ballot. Should Gompers be defeated,
which is not improbable, the headquar-
ters of the organization will be moved
from New York to Chicago.
