FEDERATION
OF LABOR
IN THE MILLER CASE
|Does Not Uphold ROosevelt,s
Opinion

Washington, Oct. 6.-First of the
mDortant matters to receive the Presi-
,snt,s attention on his return to the
,.ntal. was the Miller controversy.
IA decision in this case is being dis
used with great inter est by the Ia
IoripQ men and the politicians. On
Euesday he held a two-hour confer
.sa with committee of the Ameri-
An Federation of Labor. The eight
lcur bill. an anti-injunction bill and
Ithsr important questions were dis
uwed, the President promising to
i've labor matters his most careful
Isteution. The Miller question was
Iso mentioned but in this matter the
PRESIDENT had already made up his
nind and as the labor leaders left the
Nhite House statement wss issued
ettlng forth the Presidents views on
,mbject which has occupied the at
|sntion Of union labor for several
honths. The President said that
foreman Miller could not be dis
missed on the charges made by the
Ock.binders union and that there
ould be no discrimination in govern
bent employ between union and non-
bnon abor. He argued that he could
10 more consider the fact that a man
has member of union than that
lle was white or colored, Protestant
b fCatholic, Jew or Gentile. The
labor leaders could hardly conceal
|heir disapl ointment at this ultima
|m but they are very guarded in
|heir criticisms of President Roose-
|slt The day following the confer
|nce they issued a statement ''To Or
Ianized Labor Of America" It said
\ part In view Of. the publicity
|iVen this subject the Miller case)
|he executive counccil of the Ameri-
w Federation of Labor takes this
|ppcrtunity to say that the trade un-
% movement stands for sttietly un-
% shops. experience having proved |
bat where the "open shop" system
las been tried reduction in wages and |
'rOhts has ensued, with general dis
Ster to the best interets to the indus
y practising that system, and there.
ORG declares that the best interests of
he labor movement calls for the en-
lOyment of union workers. /" 1t will
seen that while the statement is
eiy conservative and fails to criticise
liectly the course of the President,
nevertheless declares that union la
o stands by the principle of no
open shops. y The question will
ouDtless be discussed at the annual
invention of the American Fedora
0n q Labor, which meets in Boston
J November 8. Man, politicians
'lleve that the question of "open
'0p" in government employ will be
actor in the coming presidential
npaign.

Pure food laws passed by the last
congress are being rigidy enforcd by
the Department of Agriculture, much
TO the confusion of New York mer-
chants. All imported foods have been
subjected to careful examination by
the department experts and in many
cases adverse reports have been made
This has called forth many protests
from the importers and DR.. H. W.
Wiley, the government chief chem
ist, has gone to New York to
straighten matters out. These pro-
tests were expected and are regarded
as the natural outcome of an impair
tial enforcement of the law When
the importers once realize that the
department is in earnest, there will be
fewer attempts to bring adulterated
food into the country and the pure
food laws will have beneficial results.

The Brainless Bean-ShOOter.

IL the Second District Police Court
yesterday a High School youth was
arraigned for using a bean-shooter.
He vas discharged with a lecture, in
which the court said that "a good boy
OF good homo and good family with a
b~ean-shooter is as dangerous as a bad
boy of bad surroundings with a shot
gun" No truer assertion ever came
from the bench. The b~ean.shooter
has blotted the light of Gods day from
more human lives than the shotgun.
There are rigid laws to punish the
person who discharges firearms within
the city limits, but the brainless youth
who blows blindness through a reed or
hurls misery from a slung-shot is
rarely punished. Legislation is neces-
sary on these questions. There is no
need OF waiting for the repetition of in
jury before applying corrective meas
ures. The knowledge of the power for
sorrow in these devices has cost too
much already.-St. Louis Chronicle.

Athens, Ga, March 1O.-The Athens
Wheat and Dat Fair this year, which
is to be held in this city next August,
will, ii is expected, be beyond all COM
parison the most successful of it's kind
every held in this city. The prizes
amount to $500 in gold.
This annual fair has had the result
during the past few years of stimulat-
ing in the most remarkable degree the
cultivation of the small grain crops in
this section of the state. Especially is
this true of wheat, and it has been
demonstrated, not only that good
wheat crops can be grown in this sec
ton, but also that under the proper
cultivation the yield per acre in many
instances could be made as large as
that in the great wheat-growing sec
tons of the west
