Movement Has Eeen
Launched In Chicago.
ADOPT A PLATFORM
Which They Call Upon the
Workinsmen to Support
Contains All the Labor
ing Conditions.

Chicago, Sept. 16.-A movement for
enlisting the hosts of workingmen
throughout, the United States into a
semi-political organization has been
launched in this city, says the Post.
A platform said to embrace the eco
nomical and political ideas of labor
leaders and covering the while labor
situation shas been prepared and will
be presented first for approval next
week before the Chicago Federation
of Labor.
The platform demands the abolition
of the so-called political machine the
establishment of government primaries
where votes may be cast "for nomi-
nees as citizens and not as members
of machine" and the initiative and
referendum. 1t favors the right OF
recalling representatives who are out
of touch with the voters. Relief from
the trusts Is suggested in the plan
for the passage of an amendment to
the practice laws of every state and the
federal government under which liti-
gants may bring up, in any suit In
which corporation is the plaintiff or
defendant the question of it's rights to
the franchise, whether it has usurped
power not given it under statute and
whether 1t has forfeited its powers"
This method it is urged, would b,
productice of more good than the insti-
tuition of suits by federal district at
torneys. Vigilance committees in
every state and large city are favored
m hat hn 10 i'm, tioli ah-
ministered. The eight-hour day. san
itary conditions, living wages, the re-
peal of the laws limiting the liabilities
in personal injury suits, the supplying
of free text books to all children and
the abolition of contract labor in COM
petition with freemen are demanded
Limitation on the injunction power of
judges is asked and popular election Of
central judges and senators is suggest
ed. The plan favors the government
instead of banks issuing all kinds OF
money. and it is suggested that private
| individuals be driven from banking
business. Laws are demanded restrict
ing the issue of capital stock, bonds
and securities to any greater extent
than the actual property owned by
corporations. Public ownership of pub
! lie utilities is desired and state insur-
ance and provisions fer old age are
approved. Child labor is decried and
legislative trades and trades unions TO
keep up wages are approved. In clos
ing the platform reads:
I'm order to bring about state of
harmony instead of constant discord,
the workingman must look for relief ar
the ballot box. Here, where the will
of the people is supreme, the remedy
is at hand and must be taken adj
vantage of. Workingmen must under
take to govern as well as toll, and in
that way they will get Justice"

GUARDS ON TRAINS
Ordered by Cor I'M ander Nc
Lean in Colon bia - May
Take Railway in Charge

Washington, d. c., Sept. 17.-Secre-
tary of the Navy Moody has received
the following cable from Commander
Mclean of the Cincinnati, who arrived
at Colon yesterday:
Yesterday q went to) Panama.
Train stopped twice by distractions
plate iron, etc.-placed on track. Az
ter train passed saw government SOL
diers replace distractions. Accom-
panied by consul and Commander Pot
ter (of Ranger) called on governor
Friendly conversation, Returning to
Colon this morning stopped by OBJ
struction. Soldiers were compelled to
remove them. Soldiers then stood OH
track. BY my directions train moved
on and soldiers jumped away. Will
guard trains. No revolutions in sight,
but rumored coming toward railroad" {"
Commander McLean's action in plac-
ing guards on the trains creates a
situation similar to that which existed
some months ago when Capt. Perry
with the Iowa and Commander McCrea
were at Panama and Colon, respective
ly, and each train was occupied by ,
force of American blueiackets or
marines. Capt. Perry at that time was
forced to take possession of the Pana-
ma railroad. and it is probable that
further interference will result in sim
liar action on the part of Commander
Mclean.

.sPORTsMEN OBJECT
To the Date Of tho Closing Of
the Squirrel Sea-

The quail and rabbit season does
not open until November, and expires
with the first day of December.
1t is claimed that the squirrel law
closes on the first day of September,
SO that hunters will not shoot quail
during the months of September and
October. Those who are familiar with
the habits of squirrels say that they
have been deprived of the best season
of the year for shooting that game,
because in September and October the
squirrels are working on hickory nuts
and cbestnuts. and then Inc autumn
days are ideal for the sport Of squirrel
hunting. In August when the days
are hot 1t is almost impossible to find
the squirrels. They feed early in the
morning and late in evening, and on
moonlight nights are spid to feed by
moonlight During the day they lie In
the dense foliage and cannot be found
by the hunters. r.Aa

tFrom IA STAFF Correspondent }

Columbus, o., Sept. 16. -. State Shop
Inspector J.. II. Morgan has sent or
ders to number of Canton manufac-
turers to put in safety devices in their
plants. A number of minors were
found at work in Canton and their
discharge has been ordered.
The action of the department is in
compliance with recommendations
made by Deputy Inspector L. p. Rails
ton. of Mechanlcstown, Carroll coun-
ty, who spent several weeks in Can
ton in the performance of his official
duties. The inspectors reports show
that there is no wilful disobedience OF
the state law in the city. The mat
ter of child labor is hard to control
especially during the time that school
is not in session. Canton compares
favorably with other manufacturing
cities of the state.

Duffy made the hit OF the Democratic
convention at Alliance Tuesday.
Placed in a delicate position by the
enthusiastic nomination Of the Demo-
Gratis of the Eighteenth district. the
congressional candidate was brought
forward to the stage and called upon
for an expression by the men who ask
ed him to represent their party in con-
gress. k tt t.,l. .t. s. 3
1t was time when the least unto
ward expression would cost him dear
either with the Democrats, of which
he is one, or with the laboring classes.
of which lie is the devoted representa-
tive. A young man, clamored after by
two powerful classes to permit them to
work to place him in the national con-
gress, his words were eagerly awaited
by everybody present When he had
finished everybody smiled contentedly
and were his more earnest supporters.
DUFFY PLEASED.
Duhy Judt uc wac 6iOdtiy
pleased with the measures and resolu-
tions which the convention had adopt
ed. This shows that you have some
interest in the welfare of the working
men," he said. 1T shows that you
will give aid, encouragement and jus.
tice, not only to the captains of indus.
try. but to the soldiers who compose
our vast Industrial army.
'The compliment to me is by nc
means personal one, but evidences the
desire and the determination of the
Democratic party to assist the wage
Garner to secure justice. But in this
situation l. must observe one of the
first lessons of fidelity and honor. You
would have no use for a man like me
who would not be faithful to his pledg.
ed word.
Being in the ranks of the laborinf
people, still must say that I appreci
ate the honor and the tribute you have
paid me, but. you can understand the
trying position you have placed me In
today.
| ALLOW me to say nothing at thi.
time. regret very much that circum
stances are such that we cannot see s
clear path to accomplish what botf
parties so strongly desire.
IN A CLEARER LIGHT.
ut may be possible that in due tim,
we may be able to see things in {
clearer light than we do today"
AS Duffy finished his remarks, hi
was wildly applauded by the delegates
who continued the demonstration fol
some time.
When the convention was called (,

ness was taken up. Much delay wa
caused by the committee on resolutions

CONFLICTING IDEAS
Rsaardlne the Probable Out
come OF the Code Confer
ence House u Hold
ing Back.

Columbus, Sept. 16.-Rer resentative
Cole, of Findlay. a very optimistic
gentleman and one of the strongest
supporters Of the administration, says
that the legislature will pass the Nash
code in two weeks. A feeling is pre-
valent, however, that it will require
a longer period in which to enact a
code. And 1t Is certain that the Nash
code will not be the one which will
be adopted. It may be called the Nash
acode, but It will, bear about the same
resemblance to It that day does to
night The avowed purpose of the
house subcommittee to cut out the
village section Of the administration
code bodily is something of a criterion
of what may be done along. these
lines.
Justice Shauck, of the supreme
court who, more than any other
member of the court, was response
BILE for the decision which reduced
Ohio's form of municipal government
to atoms, made the prediction In July
thai the general assembly would be
able to finish its work In about ten
days. Other representations were
made that the session would last only
a month or so, but now in the fourth
week of the extraordinary gathering
the end is not in sight. Speaker Nc
Kinnon says that 1t will be well into
October before the adjournment will
be taken, and there seems to be found
alton for this forecast The Senate
may do considerable in the way Of
pushing the code through this week,
but the house will not act with this
celerity. The code cannot be taken up
In that body for passage before next
week, and when 1t does come up for
such action it will meet with obstruc-
tions.
Columbiana county Is to be invaded
by the big guns of both parties. Fol-
lowing the announcement Of Tom
Johnson's meeting at Salem comes the
information that Senator Hanna will
speak at East Liverpool. the plan be-
ing to have him stop there while en
route from the Akron opening to
West Virginia. where he has two en-
gagemerits.
