LET ALL MAKE HOMES.
The vitality of ourr race still per,

naught. We are the original dis.
coverers of this continent, and the
conquorers of it from the animal
kingdom, and on it first taught the
arts of peace and war, and first
planted the institutions of virtue,
truth and liberty. The European
nation first found us here and
were made aware that it was
possible for men to exist and sub
sist here. We have given TO the
European nations our thought
forces-the best blood of our an.
cestors having been intermingled
with their best statesmen and lead
ing citizens. We have made our
selves an indestructible element
in their national history. We
have shown that what they believe
were/arid and desert places were
and capable Of sustain
ing millions of people. We have
led the vanguard of civilization in
our conflicts with them for tribal |
existance from ocean to ocean.
The race that has rendered this
service to mankind cannot perish
Utterly.
Though our tribal organization
s fading away, we will be trans
ormed as a potent facter and ele-
nent within the body Of Christian
utilization. The philosophy of
history of the future shall trace
many of the principles of govern
nent and institutions so dear to

American Federation of Labor Has q
 Hot DCIlnie.

LOUISVILLE, Dec. 14.-The con servative element in the American Fed eration of Labor was dominant through out yesterday's proceedings of the con vention. Two resolutions championed by the radical element were voted down by overwhelming majoriti.@S. One was . bitter pronouncomcnt u@:.linst trusts and monopolies in general and the other d declaration in favor of the cooperative commonwealth and government owner ship and control of all means of produc- tion and distribution. For both of them much more moderate substitutes wer2 adopted after long debate.
 Throughout tho debate the opponents of the resolutions claimed socialism as the only solution of the industrial prob hlems. Trades unionism. they said would last as long as the competitive sys- tenn prevails. but the competitive system should he don" away with and the coop crative commonwealth should take its place.
 President Gompers and his colleagues who opposed the resolutions, took tho ground that the federation should not b. committed to any political party anG that government ownership is at this time an impracticabe theory. with nc definite plan for development into d work lnS system.
 The substitute of fhc committee was 1 adopted by an overwhelming majority the vote being 4,1GD affirmative to GS; 1 negative. Major Romcyn. a <rctireCh army officer also spoke for the retention of the can tccu

tion Temperance Measure.
 WASiIINGTON,> Dec. 14.-In the sen ate committee on military affairs the hearing on the army reorganization bill was continued, and in addition to a num- bcr of army officers Archbishop Ireland and Bishop McGoldricll. were heard. The two prelates spoke only on the provision of the bill prohibiting the establishment of canteens or post exchanges Both of them pronounced the provision unwisc and expressed the opinion that the can teen is in the interest of temperance and good morals in the army.
 Archbishop Ireland based his remarks especially upon his observations of af- fairs at Fort Smelling. near his home at St. Paul. He said that he was sure from all that he had seen and heard among the soldiers that the canteen is q power ful factor ill the protection of the sol diers from outside temptations of all kinds. and he did not accept the theory that the caHteen brings temptation to the troops that otherwise would not come to them.
