the interest of this church and congrega-

FEDERATION OF LABOR.
Tt Will Endorse Cuba but viii Not
Commit Itself on Free Silver.

Cincinnati, Dec. 16-When the con
vention of the American Federation of
Labor was called to order today the
secretary was directed to notify the
unions of bartenders, hotel and restau-
rant walters that their representative,
W. c. POmerOy of Chicago, had been
refused a seat in the convention and
that the alternate should be seated.
The committee on labels reported IA
vorably on the recommendation of the
cigarmakers that tin or cardboard
signs giving the various labels be made
and distributed prOrata among the
unions. so as to familiarize the public
with the labels of the trades. Con
CURED in.
Invitations were accepted to visit the
union breweries. chamber of commerce
and other places.
The report that the stationary en-
gineers and the marine engineers at
St. Louis should belong to separate or
ganizations was adopted.
Mr. Clark reviewed the Olney Arbi-
tration bill at length and urged that
all labor organizations exercise the
fullest influence to secure the passage
of this bill, and that there would be no
trouble over reductions or other
changes in the event of it becoming a
law.
1t is understood that a strong resolu-
ton of sympathy with Cuba viii be
adopted. A canvass of delegates shows
almost unanimous sentiment in favor
of aid for Cuba, even to the encourage
ment of enlistments that are now be-
ing reported in different sections of the
country. The silver question or any
other questions of a political nature
is not likely to be referred to in the
resolutions this year as in former
years.

TOPEKA PERSISTENT.
Not Ready to Let That Creamery Go
Even Yet.

A meeting of the Grocers' association
will be held this evening in the hall at
12O East Sixth street. The creamery
project will be discussed and some ac-
ton will probably be taken. President
Weber is in favor of starting a sub
scription to buy site if the creamery
representatives can be persuaded to
come here in no other way.
President Weber says that he is sat
isfed that 100 people can be found in
Topeka who win give SIS apiece and
that would insure enough money to
buy a satisfactory site. Mr. Weber
thinks that the grocers would be will
ling to take hold Of such a project and
push it though he does not believe that
the people of Topeka should expect the
grocers TO do it all.
J. z. Nissley of the creamery cOmpa-
ny is expected in Topeka today and he
will confer with the grocers and other
citizens of Topeka
The Commercial club proposes to give
their annual banquet in honor of the
projectors of the Topeka creamery and
J. B. Case and the other members of the
company will be given an introduction
to the business men of Topeka over the
banquet table.
The Commercial club has pledged its
cooperation to make the Topeka
creamery a success. and the mem mbers
of the club feel more confident than ever
that the enterprise viii be located at
Topeka.

SAVE HAWAII.
Annexation Alone Can Rescue Il
From Becoming a japanese Colony

Annexation Alone Can Rescue It
From Becoming a japanese Colony.
San Diego. Cal, Dec. 16.-The secret
Of Henry Cooper's mission to the Uni
ted States is out Mr.. Cooper is the
Hawaiian minister of foreign affairs
He formerly lived in San Diego, and
was a prominent member of the bar.
He is here today and is quoted as say
ing that he came to the United States
to urge annexation, owing to the fears
that the Hawaiian government has of
Japan.
"The situation in Hawaii according
to Judge Cooper. is that the japanese
far outnumber all other foreigners. The
Americans are a handful IN comparison
Hawaii has a treaty With Japan and
cannot exclude the japanese who are
pouring into the islands steadily and
pushing into every business. They are
losing the humble demeanor that char
acterizes their countrynen on this
coast. and through their great num-
bers and the prestige Of the Japan
China war are beginning to chafe for
the elective franchise. If they force
Hawaii to give them the right of vote
then American ascendancy win be at
an end forever.
Judge Cooper has laid the situation
before influential men in the east and
has so far won upon their judgment
that he believes great strides viii be
made during the next year toward an
neXatiOn under the Mckinley admins
tratiOn.

WON'T CAUCUS.
Republicans In the Legislature
Will Not Caucus
Provided They Obtain Assur-
ances From POpulists
THAT THEY RECEIVE
Fair Treatment In Committee
Appointments or Legislation.
Many DO Not Want to Be Com
mitted to Burton
THAT THEY RECEIVE
In a Complimentary Vote, a
Scheme Now Engineered.

The indications are al the present
time that the Republicans in the coming
legislature win not hold a caucus at all
Two or three of the leading Republican
members of each of the houses have
gone to their friends, the enemy and
said to them that no party caucus
would be held by the Republicans if
there was a disposition shown on the
part of the POpulists to treat the Re
publicans in a fair manner.
They have also in several instances
assured prominent members of the par
ty that many of the Republican mem
berS could be depended upon to vote for
any measure that had any real merit
in it and that no ObstructiOnary tactics
would be employed by the Republican
mem Ders unless some measures OF very
rank nature are proposed and seem like
ly to succeed in passing.
Another reason that there is likely not
to be a Republican caucus is the fact
that j. r. Burton is very anxious that
he should be the choice of the caucus
for the candidate of the Republican
party for United States senatOr-nOt
that there is the slightest chance that
he will be elected senator, but, Mr.
Burton wishes to make capital for his
candidacy in the future
All the Republicans that have been
elected to the legislature are not Burton
men, and there are many of them that
do not want to be committed to him
or any other candidate for that matter,
and they do not believe that 1t would
do themselves, their friends, or the
Republican party any good to have Mr..
Burton indOrsed as the party candidate.
These members have expressed them
selves as unfavorable to a caucus, and
the chances that one viii not be held
are increasing each day PrOba bly, a
steering committee will do the work for
the party that caucus would be called
upon to do.
There is no promise Of harmony in
the POpulist caucus The first question
that will come before it will be the sen
atorial fight and unless there is a decid-
ed change there is every prospect that
there will be a deadlock At the present
time it is impossible to say which of the
candidates that go before the Populist
or fusion caucus, will have the lead in
strength. PETER. Breidentha1, Harris
and DennisOn will all have a good num-
Der of votes to start with, and there will
be several other candidates that will
have a very respectable following.

the house this winter has prepared a
bill that will change the time for hold
ing township and municipal elections
from the spring to November at the
same time that the county and state
elections are held His reason for this
is that as the system of holding cleo
ton now stands we have an election
every six months and there is a con-
tinual agitation going on.
No sooner does one election pass until
candidates bob up for the next one. The
present system also enables a vast
number of political agitators in the
large cities to live off politicians all the
time. The abOlishment of one election
a year viii compel this class either to
seek legitimate employment or starve.
The politicians would not then be at
their mercy. Senator Taylor says this
bill viii no doubt be supported by eve
~ member of the legislature who is in
favor of the purification of politics.

TO USE THE STATES COAL.
Penitentiary Coal TO Go to Public In
stiutions and Not on the Market

There will be a move made by q
member of the house as soon as the
legislature convenes to have bill
passed providing that after the coal
that is mined at the penitentiary is
used for the state house and the vari-
Gus state institutions the balance shall
be offered at the contract price to the
counties for the public buildings and
use in the counties.
This will be direct help to the cOun-
ties that can use LeavenWOrth coal at

coal that is mined by convict labor out
of the market and from competing with
coal that is mined by other labor
This is matter that miners organ
