OLNEY,s LEGAL FLIP-FLAP.
Gompers Says 1t Was Caused by I h
Republican Landslide.
New York Advertiser.

'Oh, last Tuesdays political avalanche

American Federation of Labor fame, when

country.
Mr.. Gompers. It administration, having
been buried under a political avalanche, is
DE- ration. TO grasp any and every means of
future salvation. If Mr.. Olney and his. as
sociates at Washington had manifested as
much interest in the days of their power
for the ~workingmen Of this country as hey
do now they would not be in the miserable
PLIGHT In whicn they are toeoay: why

interests when they. required a cheering
What do you think, Mr.. Gompers, of the
action of the Reading Railroad Company's
receivers in ruling. that such OF their en-
ployes as belonged TO the Brotherhood OF
Railroad Trainmen would have TO sever
their connection with that organization or
be discharged"
What should any reasonable man think
of such a monstrous ruling? They haven't
the least idea of the vast benefits which

and millions OF men, women and children

it would consent to be thrown out Of en-
pioyment during the hard winter. They
were mistaken. The schoolmaster is abroad
nowadays. and labor not only knows it's
legal rights and properly. estimates its true
strength. but is quite willing at any time
to exercise the latter in order to enforce
the former.
I'm protecting itself labor has protected
every other interest OF the State. To bor-
row ideas from Mr.. Olney's letter-and it's
rather a new thing for me 10 look TO him
for Observation-Disclosures labor has ban

among employees and given workingmen a
better understanding of the problem OF
rapffal and laho- and the necessity nf an

not TO mere brutal physical force.
More than all this. 1t has developed
such immense power that IL has brought
lawmakers to declare that organized labor
has laugh Its members that there is net
one law for one class of the community
and another for another. but the same for
all. and OF thus tending to preserve for the
law and for the judiciary by which it is
administered that general respect and con-
fidence which has always been a marked
characteristic as well as excellence OF our
Institutions Thank you for these words
