mcEWEN RETURNS
From the Eighteenth Annual
Convention.

William E. McEwen returned from
Kansas City Wednesday night, where
he had been in attendance at the eigh.
tenth annual convention of the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor. The session
lasted eight:days and much was accom-
plished in that time. Owing to the
lengthy session ands Jour going to press
earlier this5week than usual on account
of the coming Christmas time, we are
unable to give report of the proceed

Duluth has been represented at these
conventions for several years, but has
never in any way been recognized until
now. Delegate McEwen was appointed
on three important committees; the com.
mittee OIL constitution, .the industrial
committee appointed to.zmake recon.
mendations to industrial commission ap.
pointed bykPresident Nc Kinley, and was
selected asa member of the, arbitration
board of complaint against walters. This
board will meet.in Chicago at some fu-
ture date to Investigate, arbitrate and
adjust all matters under dispute.
Mr.. McEwen returns home quite graft
fed over the work done by the conven-
ton and hopes..for good results from the
work mapped out FOR the ensuing year.
He naturally feels pleased, as are his
many friends, over the recognition or
ganized labor Of Duluth has received
and the honors conferred upon worthy
member.
The following are the officers elected:
J. President, Samuel Gompers; first vice
president, P::J Mcclure, Philadelphia;
second vice president, James Duncan,
Baltimore; third vice president, James
O'Connell, Chicago; Fourth vice presi-
dent, John F. Mitchell, Indianapolis;

And which belong to boys?

OF course, that fancy Of mine
is very foolish. You can never
have milkmaids able to play
quartettes,.. nor cultured play
ers able to milk cows except
under socialism. And socialism
is impossible.
Socialism..is quite impossible,
because naturally the wealthy
men who own the land and the
capital will not consent to part
with them.

yesterday, and transacted considerable
business Of Importance. All members
of the board were present, except Ec-
Giles. Lund and Dee.
The work of tFacklaying is now so
far advanced that the operation Of reg
ular freight trains will begin III the
near future. The officials OF the road
have been working on tariff sheets for
some days. and this matter was dis
cussed at the meeting yesterday. Traf-
fie Manager Ellerbeck thought the
freight tariffs might become effective
about the oath of this month, when a
regular freight service will be estab-
lished. Steos were also taken to pur-
chase tickets and other stationery
needed for freight and passenger traf-
fic.
Contractor Hendricks reported good
progress. Steel is now being laid at
the rate of mile day, and SULPHUR

rejoicing over the coming of the road,
and it is said the people of Sulohur
Springs are preparing to celebrate the
entry of the line into that place II dem

AS the meeting was devoted almost
exclusively to business of routine order,
and the auditing of bills, the officials
said they had no news of any import
ance to give out.
President McCune said the work
would be pushed with all possible
speed, and that there was now nothing
to hinder the work in any way.

CLAYTON BULWER TREATY.
President Finds It An Obstacle to
Nicaragua Canal.


New York, Dec. "a dispatch to the
Herald from Washington says: Presi-
dent Mckinley is in favor of opening
negotiations with Great Britain for the
purpose of modifying the Clayton Bull
Wer treaty, SO as to permit the con-
struetion and control of the Nieara-
guam canal by the United States.
Should congress, during the present
session, fail to enact the pending Nor
gan bill, the president also favors en-
tering into negotiations with Nicaragua
and Costa Rica looking to the con-
struction of the canal under The
auspices and control of the United
States,
EN- the authority of a high official
of the administration, it is stated that
there is absolutely no foundation for
the report that Great Britain, through
Sir Julian Pauncefote, has protested to
the state department against that fea-
ture of the presidents message dealing
with the canal question. On the con-
trary, the authorities have every rea-
son to believe that the British govern
ment will consent to any reasonable
modification of the Clayton=BulweT
treatry that the president may desire,
so as to remove the obstacles which il
places in the way for the control of the
canal by this government.
So satisfied are the officials on this
point that negotiations will soon be I'M
der way which, it is hoped, will Gull
inmate in an agreement especially in
tended to give this government the
right to construct and control the pro-
posed waterway.
