CONVENTION SEATS PARKS
New York Man Wins Decided Vic
tory at Kansas City.
After Bitter Contest His Union Is Re-
instated-President Buchanan
Meets Defeat.

Kansas City, Mo-, Sept. 25.-After be-
ing in session behind closed doors since
early Wednesday morning, the conven-
ton of the international Association of
Bridge and Structural Iron Workers at
ten O'Clock p. m. voted in favor OF seat
ing Sam Parks and the other delegates
from local union No. 2, of New York.
There were but three votes cast against
Parks and his friends.
These were the ballots of President
Buchanan, the Kansas City delegate, and
one other. The result was decided vic
tory for Parks, as it reinstates him and
Local No. 2, of New York, of which he is
the business agent, and directly repud1-
ates the action of President Buchanan
in suspending it. The Parks delegations
will now have seats on the floor, and the
supposedly regular delegates are out
of it.
The hearing of the Parks case con-
sumed nearly all the time of the conven-
ton Wednesday and it was bitter con-
test. Parks is jubilant. President Nu-
chanan declined to talk about the result,
which was clear and sharp defeat for
him. II have no statement to make, he
said, when asked for one. eyes, it is a
defeat for me. The result net is the re-

house and that the present move is
political one in the interest of prominent
republicans who control some few la
Dor leaders with desire to attempt to
defeat the nomination Of President
Roosevelt,
Therefore, Be it resolved by the gen
eral executive board of the order OF
knights of Labor incorporated:
THAT the action taken at this time
against President Roosevelt is not in
the interest of organized labor, but
political move that if carried out will
disrupt or lower organizations and in
lure the members, and if the leaders at
tempt any such action the majority OF
the members of all organizations with
out regard to their political opinions
should refuse to recognize and repudl-
ate such leaders and their action.
BE it further resolved, That such
action as is contemplated against Presl-
dent Roosevelt is one of the many er-
rors and mistakes made by organized
labor, and they seem inclined to ignore
the rights of others, create strikes ana
make demands that are unreasonable, re-
living not on the justice of their, con-
tention or claims, but the amount of loss
or trouble they can cause others and to
see what they secure by depending on
politicians and not on the justice OF
their demands.
"And, be, it further Resolved. That
as Senator Hanna, of Ohio, is said to
be a great friend of organized labor and
that he is also considered loyal sup
porter and sincere friend OF President
Roosevelt, we, therefore, suggest to
both sides of the present controversyex-
listing in the printing office that they
refer the dispute to Senator Hanna for a
decision"

with, at any rate, newly raised mount ed infantry know we'll the trouble in- volved in making them regard their horses as ought beyond animated ma chimes provided to carry them about the country and to sit upon all day and ev- cry day. Hence most of the trouble about the "remounts'' in South Africa.
 If, however, sufficient recruits cannot be obtained, as suggested, from among our "horse-loving" population, the only alternative is to enlist lads of fourteen or fifteen at reduced scale of pay "boy's pay"in fact-and train them up to be horse soldiers. I have often heard it remarked by cavalry officers that capital horsemen and good horse masters are to be found among their trumpeters, who are enlisted as lads at fourteen years of age. My contention is that if some such means as are here outlined could be adopted to secure the right class of recruit for our cavalry, it would ensure for us the two cardinal points which, beyond all others, make for the efficiency of cavalry; that the expensive chargers provided by the taxpayer would be both well ridden and we'll looked after inwar time. Surely this is worth striving for even at the appalling risk of giving a little extra trouble to our infantry staff officers in Pail Mall.--Saturday Review.
