SAMUEL GoMPEEs.

The chairman then introduced John
Mcbride, president of tho American Fed
Grafton OF Labor, who said: 1.-THE trade
union movement will force recognition by
its earnestnoss and energy. The work
Of the unions has been a wonderful and
successful one, and today receives more
recognition from the public and press
than ever before. Conditions are chang
Ing, and the labor union will change as
often as the conditions warrant and the
will of the people demand. While we
may disagree rs TO tho methods, we oil
agree to the ends or objects of the unions.
We all agree that there are too many
palaces, and X not TOO many palaces, at
least too many novels; IL not too much
wealth, too much poverty; IL not too many
schools, still too much iliteracy; IL not
too many luxurious homes, at least too
many alleys and tcnemcnts.
"Thc system that the few are enriched
At the expense of tho many obtains in
this country, and the wrong is increasing.s
IL is an unequal distribution of wealth.
the concentration Of power in the hands
OF the few at the expense OF tho many,
and Is the greatest crime OF the 10Th cen
tury. In proper comparison with the
wealth OF the country. American labor Is
more poorly paid than that of any other
country, and in no other country is cap
ital more highly rewarded"
