strong Resolutions = the Chicago FEEDER.
alton Of Labor.
Chicago. April 1s.-The Federation Of
Labor, at Its regular weekly meeting,
unanimously adopted a resolution that
the people of this country should retail
late against any foreign country that
might iniermeddle In the present crisis
by refusing to buy its products and
manufactures. The paper. which was
reported by Chairman Dold, from the
committee on resolutions, n unani-
mously adopted without debate. was as
follows:
'Th delegates to the Chicago Fed
GRAFTON of Labor, in regular council as
sembled, believing 1t to be the duty OF
all citizens to assist by honorable and
legitimate means in sustaining the ma
ton in its controversy and probable
hostilities with Spain. and realizing
that n or more supposedly friendly
nations are liable to give encourage
ment IL not actual assistance to Spain;
I'VE therefore declare that
il becomes evident that any foreign ma
ton or people asserts its or their infiu-
ence detrimental to the interests OF the
United States In relation to the pending
difficulties with Spain, IL becomes the
individual duty Of each citizen OF the
United States to abstain from the use
of or traffic in any articles or commodi-
ty, either natural or manufactured,
which is produced by uch people or
nation. and to effectuate this purpose
we declare further that any person
within the limit of the United States
who, with full knowledge of the fact,
does, for the purpose of profit. deal
in such articles, should moi receive the
patronage of any patriotic American
citizen"
After this resolution had been adopt
ed, Samuel Gompers, president OF the
American Federation of Labor. ad-
dressed the federation, n among 9TH
er matters touched upon the war ques-
ton. He said he was not an eleventh
hour convert to war with Spain. AS
long ago as the Cincinnati convention
he had advocated a free Cuba, n a
war for hat purpose IL necessary. Still
he had no sympathy with the war any
how" spirit. There should be no war
with Spain If 1t can be avoided with
honor. A war. he said, would be a
great evil to the working mar who
would bear most of the hardship and
suffering. They would have to do the
fighting. receive the Wounds, laying
down their lives n leaving behind
them widows and orphans. There
fore they could have no selfish motive
in advocating war. -.
This country, he said certainly should
put an end to the barbarous massacre
and starvation of women and children
in Cuba. 1t also wanted reparation for
the killing of it's men on the Maine
Everyone, Of course preferred to have
these ends accepted peaceably. But
IL IL could not be lone peaceably, war
was justifiable. Mr.. Gompers also
spoke of the triumphal advance of or
ganiZed labor.
Speeches were also made by Vice
President O'Connell and others.
