PRESIDENT GoMPERs
Addressed the Iron workers at Pittsburg
Yesterday


President Samuel Gompers, OF the
American Federation OF Labor, ad-
dressed the delegates TO the convention
of the Amalgamated Association OF Iron
and Steel Workers at the opening OF
the session. yesterday. He spoke for
over two hours on the growth and
strength of the Federation. and
advised constant enthusiastic work
for organization. he congratulated
the delegates upon the re-
coveryof the organization from the
strikes of last year, saying that or all
the labor unions In the country not one
stood higher In the estimation OF the
people than the Amalgamated Associa-
ton. The Federation OF Labor, he
said, stood ready 10 support the or
ganization in any emergency possible
when IL opposed reductions. After
ward, in an interview, Mr.. Gompers
spoke of the Sunday question as 1t
affected the Worlds Fair.
"Working people" he said, have a
right to proclaim what they are salts
fed is for their best interest aud they
are unanimous in the belief that the
fair should be opened on Sunday. The
700. 900 members OF the American Fed
GRAFTON of Labor are uRlted upon that
point. 1t is the day for rest and recre-
alton to the laborer, and as his money as
much as the capitalists has been ex-
pended by the country buildings, they
have a right TO visit on the only day In
the week which is their OVID"
Mr.. Gompers also tavors sunday
newspapers, the opening Of libraries
and Of art galleries on Sunday.
The Amalgamated convention did not
hold q session in order TO give the vari-
Gus committees time TO complete their
labors. No conference has been asked
from the manufacturers, and 1t is now
reported that none will be until
after the close Of the conven-
ton. The conference commit
tee will, however, be clothed
with greater discretionary powers than
heretofore. Manufacturers do not con-
firm the report in the Iron Age that D..
Painter & Sons Company, the Pittsburg
Forge and Iron Company, and Phillips,
Nimick 81 Co., will not be represented
in the conference with the Amalgamat-
ed Association. 1t is announced,
though, that Spang, Chalfant 81 Co..
will not be governed by the conference,
but will make their own terms with the
Amslgamated Association.

mR. NrcHoLs EXPLAINs.

Hon. j. WLBUE NICHOLS, the st.
Clairsville statesman whose speech sec
onding Gov. McKNLEY's nomination,
was placed 10 deadly parallel with
ROsooE CoNKLING's nominating GRANT,
in these columns the Iother day, says
CoNKLINe's speech is not in his library
and that, therefore, he could not have
been guilty of plagiarlzing it.
He acknowledges, however, that he
did "cull" ''some bright sentences"
from speeches be had handy, but he
adds that his original manuscript will
show that he quoted" these "cqll-
ings."
1t is, therefore, a pity, for Mr.. MICH
OILS reputation as an original orator,
that quotation marks do not show no in
orations. Whether he "quoted" from
CoNKLING or from someone who had
boldly plaglarized that brilliant states
mans speech, the fact remains that the
ears Of his auditors could not catch the
quotation marks.

The REV. De. LYMAN ABBoTT's re-
cent declaration that "The Bible is not
the Word Of God" has not only caused
much wonderment in aud out OF relig-
ious circles, but has led a religious con-
tempory TO inquire how DE-. AnBoTT
reconciles It with his preface to his
Commentary on the Gospel According
&c St. Matthew" il which preface Dr.
ABBOTT says: The introduction TO vol
ume one contains a statement OF those
principles Of Interpretation which APP
pear to me to be essential to the correct
understanding Of the word OF God"
Again, in this same preface, he says
that the object Of the work is 30 'as-
certain and make clear the meaning Of
the word Of God"
In little book entitled "Notes for
Bible Readings" DR.. ABBOTT has pa
per in which he speaks Of the syste-
matte study Of the word Of God"
II the Blole is not the word of God
DR.. ABBOTT has been erroneous in his
teachings evidently.
True, the works quoted were written
by the Doctor eighteen years ago and
he may have received some new light
that has not been shown TO Christianity
IN general, but this the Plymouth pas
tor fails to explain.
