When il was seen that the socialist
resolutions were to he defeated Max
Corey. of Chicago. asked to be allowed
to offer Il substitute resolution carry
ing with it the essential POINTS of social
ism contaired in the other resolutions
President GOmpers at once ruled that
the substitute would not be in order
until the original resolutions had been
disposed of. Then n discussion arose. S
Il. Donnelly, of New York, supported
the committees report. declaring that
politics and socialism should have no
place in the deliberations of the feder-
alton. Isaac MaCCowan of Cleveland
defended socialism vehemently. ar
raigning the systems of politics and So
ciety.
John F. Tobin. of Boston. introduced
this resolution as an amendment to the

believing that the labor problem will be
solved OILY when the lands and means

PLEAS FOR SOCIALISM,
Have the Floor for a Session of
the Federation of Labor
Convention.
FRIENDS OF THE IDEA ENCOURAGED

Subject Presented More Fully Probably
Than Ever Before in Trades Union
Convention - One Resolution Offered
Containing the Very Essence of the Sys-
tem-speeches and Proposals All Warm
Iy Applauded.
Kansas City, NO., Dec. 17.-Socialism
was the absorbing topic yesterday be
fore the convention of the American
Federation of Labor. The socialist dele
gates made a determined effort to in
fuse socialistic doctrines into the law of
the federation. Probably they Will not
succeed, for there is a majority against
them. but the socialist orators held thu
floor nearly all the afternoon and con-
tinued their argument today, for the is
sue was not decided when the session
adjourned last evening. The soc alists
claimed to be pleased with the develop
ments of the day and said that for the
first time in the history of the fedora
ton the question was discussed with
dignity and liberation on both sides,
and with apparent understanding of the
issue, and this they say marks an epoch
of advancement of socialism among
the trades union!sts. So great was the
interest in the discussion, and so gen
eral the liberation. that the five minute
rule of the convention was not enforced
against several of the more eloquent
socialist orators.
Gompers to Vote with Socialists.
Delegate John F.. Tobin, of Bostor.
created something of a sensation when
in the course of an impassioned speech
he declared that he had been given to
understand that President GOmpers in
tended to vote with the Social Demo-
cratic party, and to recommend all
he should come in contact with to do
likewise Tobin urged tina: what the
president of the federation thought
good enough 10 adopt the federation
need not fear. President Gompers did
not deny the assertion of TObin. The
socialist question came up Immediately
after noon.
Social RESOLUTION from Cleveland.
The first and most important socialist
resolution was that offered ny the Cleve-
land Central Labor union. of which Max
Hayes, the socialist. is the representa-
tive The Eist OF this resolution was 10
the effect that the constitution of the
federation be changed So as To admit cf
the Endorsement of no political party
except that bearing on the propa Eanda
for the abolition of the wage system"
This is socialism pure and simple. The
committee on laws did rot concur in
this resolution. nor in a second reso.u-
ton indrrsinE the Social Democracy. It
recommended the widest scope of dis
cussion of all economic questions bear
ing upon the system Of trades unions,
but called attention to the fact that the
federation had always refus to in
dorse any kind of politics and recon-
mended that the rule be adhered to.

Condistiug Legal styisA

A good anscdots ID told of the two
celebrated baIvislers, Balfonr and
-Erskine, says the San Francisco
Wave. Balfour's style was gor-
geously verbose. Erskine's, on The
contrary, was crisp and vigorous.
Coming into court one day Erskine
noticed that Bslfour's ankle was
bandaged.
"Why, what's the matter9" asked
Erskine.
Instead Of Epplying, II fell from
q gate," Balfour answered in his
usual roundabout manner:
II was taking romantic ramble
in my brothers garden" he said,
land on coming to q gate l discov-
cred that I had to climb over it, by
which I came in contact With the
first bar and grazed the epidermis
of my leg, which has caused . slight
extravasion of the blood"
"You may thank your lucky
stars" replied Erskine, "that your
brothers gate was not as lofty as
your style, or you would have bro
ken your neck"
