There are complaints made of viola
tons of the early closing movement by
persons who agreed to close at
eight o'clock, but remain and sell for
some time behind closed doors. This
very fact is having its effect on others,
who would really like to close business
as per agreement, but they do not Ike
being taken advantage of. Unless it
Is lived up to better, the clerks are

NATIONAL COMMITTEE
PROFESS CONFIDENCE

Chicago, Nov 6.-The following
statement was given out last night at
the headquarters of the Republican
national committee:
There are few surface indications
at this time dissimilar to those Of four
years ago. when Mckinley swept the
country by the greatest majority prob
ably ever given to a presidential can
didate. The work Of the Republicans
during the past four weeks has been
marvelously effective. Mckinley and
Roosevelt viii carry every state which
voted for Mckinley and Hobart four
years ago and certainly seven or eight
others that voted for Bryan in 1896.
Inc alleged hopes Of Croker and Bryan
as TO carrying Indiana and New York
are simply following out the program
OF claiming everything in sight, for
the purpose of encouraging their fol-
lowers in close states TO make the most
desperate efforts for success. The
claims of the Republicans are based
upon the result Of actual work reported
by men in the field, brought up through
precinct, ward, township, city, county
and state organizations, and upon ac-
tual facts as shown by the closest Doll
ever made by any political organiza-
ton"
Chairman James K. Jones, Of the
Democratic national committee. said.
Il have no doubt that the result of
the balloting will be the triumphant
election of Bryan and Stevenson. The
Democratic party has appealed in this
campaign to the reason and conscience
OF the people, while the Republicans
have appealed to passion and prejudice.
IN the great forum Of public opinion
have no doubt the Democratic party
has won in this, the greatest of its
national political struggles. -Four
years ago the Democratic party was de-
hclent organization, whereas now it
is more perfectly organized and more
efficient than it has been in any cam
paign. While the campaign fund has
not been enriched by the contributions
of great trusts, it has received the
patriotic mites of the great working
classes in sufficient quantity to defray
the expenses of the campaign"

congress opened in Huddersfeld, Eng
land, September, 3. One million and a
quarter trade uniOnists were repre-
scented by 3SS delegates from $40 trade
and labor organization One of the
most important features Of the proceed
ings was the report of a committee on
he relations of trade unions and CO.
operative societies, and charges were
made that cooperative societies had
gone to all the sweating dens between
Lands End and John O'Groat's to de-
eat the establishment of trade union
conditions. Ben Tillett's proposition
favoring compulsory arbitration was
defeated by a vote of $4,000 to 246,000.

lnittee were extended and it was de-
,ided to appoint standing committees
to deal with questions of conflicting
trade union jurisdictions. Resolutions
were adopted on the subjects Of old
age pensions, workingmehs compen-
satiOn for injuries. wages in
government works, right of picketing,
