THE bulwark of our nations
safety lies not in it's fortresses or in

ognizes the heritage of men in all
lands everywhere. Destroy it and
you have planted the seeds of des-

THE Chicago Times-Herald argues
that the trusts have come. to stay
inasmuch as consolidation is the
only means of enabling manufacture
ers to ''reduce the cost of produc.
tion." The only ones who are sure
that trusts reduce the cost of produc-
tion are workingmen who have had
their wages cut. People who have
to buy trust made products would
imagine that the cost of production
had been increased, judging from the
skyward trend of prices charged by
the trusts.

The principal topic of conversation
about labor headquarters last evening
was the address to be delivered Monday
evening by Samuel Gompers, president of
the American Federation of Labor. BY
all it was considered the event of the
season in labor circles, and the prevailing
sentiment seemed to be that hall No.
would be packed to the doors and that
great good would result to the local labor
movement from President GOmpers visit.
Mr.. GOmpers was in st. Paul in 1889, when
he delivered an address at Market house
hall to the largest audience of working
men ever assembled there. Mr.. Gompers
is recognized as one Of the most eloquent
speakers in the labor movement He is
known all over the country, and with
the exception of one term, when he was
defeated by John Mcbride of the mine
workers union, has held the office of
president of the American Federation Of
Labor since its Inauguration.
J. F. Krieger, J. H. McNally, J. M.
Doherty and Charles TTillman, of the or
ganization committee of the Trades and
Labor Assembly met Saturday evening
and perfected arrangements for the meet
ing Monday evening. A programme con-
sisting of musical and vocal numbers was
prepared. 1t was also decided that the
honor of introducing the speaker of the
Donaldson, president of the Trades and
open toeau, and It is hoped that the la
dies both married and single viii turn
out in goodly numbers. No admission

that M. j. Keogh, second vice president of

Then there is the European cousin Of
the chrysanthemum, the ox-eyed daisy,
which came over here on the Mayflower,
presumably, and has degenerated, like
some of the other proud scions Of English
artstocracy, until Gray has been forced
to characterize 1t as "a pernioious weed
with large, snowy headsl" This per
n1cious weed Is lovelier in some respects
than the cabbage-like Japanese flower.
The flowers of compositae are generally
vivid In color. counting the visits Of the
insects In this way, according to the
scientists, who believe that the hand Of
God did not paint the petals to delight
the eye Of man, but simply to attract
butterflies and BEES that they may visit
the flowers and carry to and fro the
pollen, in order that each blossom may
bring forth seed according to its kind, :"
and the divine law be fulfilled. 1t seems
little odd, however, that the insects
should seek just what most delights
mans sense of color and smell, and one
rejoices In the similarity of tastes.
Over against the hillside is outlined a
mass of royal purple, prosaically named
iron-weed, which. Is one Of the prettiest

of compoSitae.7 The SunfioWer is much
cultivated in Russia; where the seeds
are used as food, and from them oil is
extracted The dried stems are also used
for fuel. Some day an enterprising
Yankee will go to Kansas and make mil

knows how soon we may be threatened
with 'sun-fower trust"

Then there are the fleabones of our
own country, and the daisies OF Europe,
which are nearly related.
Along the banks of the Mississippi is
found the purple cone-fower, being quite
common down at PlaSa.
Chamomi1e and yarrow and NORWOOD
and tansy are all good respectable mem
bers Of the family, who have something
else besides beauty to recommend them.
Then there are the ugly Boswells, the
tickseeds and cockleburs, our-marigold

closer than a brother to you in your
walks abroad.
Then, there is the dear dandelion, which
childish fingers love to pluck, and prosaic

The blue chickory of the early year, and
the yellow, slender-stemmed haw weed,
and the downy .sonchus, vulgarly named
''sowthistles.
The thistles deserve a chapter all to
themselves, for of all the flowers of COM
positae there are none more personally
exclusive than the thistle, which the
Scotch, in token of the fact that no one
may hurt them with impunity, have
adopted as the national flower.
The Scotch thistle and the common this

adam thistle, are all good, stout defend
ers of the honor of compositae.
It is a great family, and the remark
able thing about it is that the ordinal
characteristics are so we'll preserved in
the many thousand species. For the next
three months it will possess the earth,
monarch of all 1t surveys.

Asked what part the workingmen of the
country would take in politics during the
next presidential election Mr.. Gompers
said:
organized labor, as individual union
men, Is taking more interest in political
affairs now than ever before. This is
demonstrated by the number of members
of organized labor chosen as representa-
tives in the legislature in the various
states in different parts of the country.
In many states the number of labor men
varies from two to seventeen. In Colo
RADIO the number of members of organized
labor in the legislature is seventeen, In
addition to which the lieutenant governor
OF the state is also member of organized
labor
1.-The American Federation of Labor
most firmly and unequvocally favors the
Independent use of the ballot by the trade
unionists and workingmen, united regard
less of party, that we may elect men
from our own ranks to make new laws
and administer them along the lines laid
down in the legislative demands of the
American Federation of Labor, and a
the same time secure an impartial jul
bitrary injunctions of the courts. nor act
as the plant tools of corporate wealth.
THAT as our efforts are centered
against all forms of industrial slavery
and economic wrong, we must also direct
our utmost energies to remove all forms
of political servitude and party slavery,
to the end that the working people may
act as a unit at the polls at every cleo
ton.
THE worst feature of our political life
is the domination which party has over
individual judgment There are many
who are opposed to certain political prop
Ositions, but when their party declares
for them they fall into line and support
them, though acknowledging to them
selves that they are against their tndi-
Vidual interests. 1t is our effort, there
fore to Wean the individual from such
servitude, so that he may be guided by
principles and measures rather than i'm
plicitly following a party, no matter for
what it declares.
I'm the measure that we accomplish this
shall we see Independent Judgment and
Independent voting, thus compelling par
ties to conform their declarations and
principles to meet the improved judg-
ments and demands of the people The
interests of all laborers, whether in facto-
ries or other industries or on the farms,

are absolutely identical. Often the 1arm-
er Is as inconsiderate of the farm la
borerS welfare as is the most rapaciouS
so-called captain of industry of the inter
ests of his employees.
ut is therefore to the in interests of or
ganiZed labor to assist in the organization
of the farm laborers so that they may
be greater participants in the product OF
their own labor. In the same degree as
the workers in the industrial pursuits,
agriculture and commerce are organic I'd
we shall court and expect the co-opera-
ton of all reform forces in society max
ing for the material, political social, and
moral welfare of the whole people AS
the result of a closer alliance between
the organized industrial wage earners
and farm laborers there will be more ehap-
pineSs and less misery; better homes,
fewer hOboeS, more schools and lyceumS,
and fewer jails; more home comforts,
and fewer saloons; more independence,
economical and political, and less bossism
and corruption; more love of country and
humanity and less jingoism and political
Juggling, which now appeal to the igno
rant and arouse prejudice; in a word it
would make for all things which make
life worth living, and make men regard
themselves in duty bound to aid each 9TH
er in bearing each others burdens.
THE trust feature has indirectly been
attacked by labor, particularly that feat
ure of the trusts which reaches out to
dominate the political parties, the legis-
latures state and national, the executives
of our municipal life, and has reached
the judiciary. Influenced its opinions, de-
cisions and DEGREES. The trusts, however,
may have a legitimate function in the de-
velopment of industry, but their invasion
of our legislatures, and control of the
executive and judicial functions of gov
eminent is the greatest danger to the
perpetuation of republican institutions
and the freedom and independence of the
Citizen
When asked If he thought the alleged
oppression of the moneyed class has
reached that stage which will cause a
political revolution among the wage earn
ers of the country, Mr.. Gompers said:
THAT we are fast drifting toward that
condition of affairs there is no question
in my mind, but we, hope that we are now
witnessing an economic revolution in fac
tory, workshop; mill and mine and we
earnestly anticipate the same upon the
farm, which will cause evolution rather
than revolution. We can measure polit-
ical advancement by the greater econom-
ic independence of the workers, and this
economic independence can only be
brought about by the more thorough or
ganization of all wage earners.''

AFTER THE
The NeWtands Forces All at Sea.
and Don't Know How 1t
Happened.

The first scrimmage of the Senatorial
fight took place Sunday night at the eau
clSes in the two Houses at the Capitol
In the afternoon there were several at
tempts at organization by the Newlands
corps, but sufficient strength could not
be mustered to do any work. AT the
Ornsby HOUSE the Stewart staiwarts
came together. and by the time the eau
Gus was called there were eleven Senators
in line and seventeen Assemblymen.
Had Senator WATSON arrived the SEN
ate would have had a working force Of
twelve. NJ. WATSON arrived vest erday
and joined the Stewart ranks. 1t was
strictly a party caucus, and no patronage.
was dealt out to anyone who could not b
counted OF as Silver from start to finish.
The patronage was well distributed, each
county receiving a slice.
At the Newlands camp things were any
thing but pleasing. The entire force
seemed to be at sea, with the scouts and
bushwhackers still in the woods. New
lands himself has little to say, and Sha-
ron is doubling his own eligibility as a
candidate.
Yesterday morning the Newlands peo-
Pile attempted to Overturn some of the
caucus appointments, but it resulted in a
complete failure. 1t was whispered that
Sharon had d trump card up his sleeve,
but it turned out to be a deuce Of the
wrong suit.
The Stewart headquarters remained
open until late in the night, and from
some of the broad smiles that left the
room toward morning it was apparent
that the victory was the work Of the men
who believe in honor above political am
bition. 1t was whispered that Mr.. New
lands had rendered his resignation as
Congressman, but this was denied with
such emphasis and rapidity that it left no
doubt as to his firm determination to
hold onto a sure thing.
