Evening

Council Of Labor Hall Was Crowded Last
Evening
The carpenters held a meeting last
night at council of labor hall. G. Givens.
president of the union, acted as chairman.
Mrs McComas read very com prehensive
paper Oh female suffrage. 1t bristled with
history and logic. Sne was accorded
many evidences of appreciation.
6. B. Fulton was next accorded the
floor for the purpose of speaking in be-
half of prospective demonstration that
IS intended to be given on the release OF
Eugene V. Debs from Woo stock prison
by a mum Der OF labor unions in this city.
The date and place of meeting is not yet
Debs' trial and imprisonment, and the
place echUeu with the kind regards which
the audience seemed to hold for the
leader.
The next speaker on the program was
Ed Hutchinson. He spoke OF the times
being full OF object lessons. of the inquir-
ing m God of the masses. They no longer
bare their necks patiently to the yoke
without first knowing who the driver is
to he. The tendency of human nature is
to fraternize, notwithstanding the feline
and canine exhibitions That are to be
seen in all the walks of life. Working
men, said the gentleman, are giving
more attention to popular science and
deep problems than ever before. This is
one of the grandest signs of the times.
They are studying what life is and what
it was intended for. They are probing
the erstwhila mysteries of sociology and
all its considerations. They are weighing
the arguments of the profoundest thinkers
and not accepting any longer uthority
for proof.
Mr.. Webster of Pasadena was the next
speaker. He made logical and entnusi-
astic appeal to the carpenters to stand by
the union. He spoke Of various interests,
such as banking, railroading and manu-
featuring that are being organized for
offensive and defer sivs work. and the
~orkmen had perfect right to follow
suit. He spoke OF the great desira rility
Of closer union of all GLASSES of working
men for the purpose of mutual good will
and intellectual and social Improvement.

London, November 2S.-The American
Society in London gave THANKSGIVING
banquet at Holbern restaurant last eve

of the United States and with flags and
palms. Over the Presidents chair there

fruits, surrounded by model of the
statue of Liberty. Opposite the seat of
the chairman there was portrait OF
