A POINTER FOR OTHERS.

The American Federation of Labor has shown its fair hand toward the press of the nation, and the following goes on record as demonstrating its breadth of thought and the respect that organization has in preserving the principles of free speech. The resolution adopted in San Francisco the other day says:
 'The untrammeled freedom of the press is so important to the we'll be- ing, not only of organized labor but to human civilized life, that no con- ceivable circumstances can arise that can warrant trade unionists in their organized capacity to place publica- tion upon a boycott list for the ex- pression of opinion"
 The above has a manly ring to it. The American federation is not afraid of criticism, in other words. It hon. estly courts it. Dishonest expressions can do harm to labor or any other or ganization, and the federation that is today in session in San Francicso knows it. In this connection of con- demning the muzzling of the press there are other labor bodies regularly organized and recognized that should take cue from their fellow craftsmen in the American federation. Unfortu- nately, however, for them and their interests they do not do so. They per sist in the weapon of the boycott, and but recently In New Orleans labor organization in that city endeavored to run a newspaper from the field by demanding from all patrons a discon- tInuance of patronage. The same method has been persisted in in this community, and feeling of prejudice has been shown to such an extent that an open boycott is the rule applied in an endeavoI to crush such expressions that the American Federation sup ports. It makes no difference to labor what branch of an organization it is member of, the rule should be observ- ed to invite publicity, and even if the press is free in extending it whole some service, the same channels should also be permitted to critcIse just as openly and without being condemned to channels that would exterimnate them.

Serious Accident.

A rather peculiar and at the same time quite serious accident happened ca Saturday morning at the railroad shops, the victim being Jack Taylor, foreman of the boiler works. He was walking over a pile of scrap iron, when his foot accidentally slipped down into the mass of iron and at the same time he lost his balance and fell down, both bones of his leg being broken. He was taken to Mercy hopsital where Dr. MeNally reduced the fracture and he is resting com fortably, but it will be several weeks bsfore he is able to work.

FINANCIALLY SUCCESSFUL.

The record that has been made by the Louisiana Purchase Exposition company in the repayment to the gov ernment of the loan of S4, 600, GOO authorized by the act of congress of February IS, 1904, is anIagreeabIe sur prise in that it is the first time since the Centennial exposition in Philadel- phia in 1876, that the government has gotten back as much as one penny of the millions of dollars Fadvanced to similar enterprises. The law making this appropriation provided that three shall be repaid to the United States the same proportionate amounts shall be repaid to the stockholders of the company or to the city of St. Louis. If, therefore, there should be any sur plus to divide when the affairs of the company are wound up, the United States will receive a dividend on the same basis as the private subscribers and the city of St. Louis. Even if nothing is received on this account, the managers of the exposition will have made a very creditable record.

AN EVENING OF
 MUSIC AND SONG
A Brilliant Entertainment
 Last Night.
Successful Production of Oratorio, the Holy City, at K. of
 P. Hall.

The entertainment given at K. of P. hall last evening was a pronounced success in every particular. Over 200 ladies and gentlemen were present, the hall being filled to it's capacity even to standing room.
 The principal number was the ora torio, 'The Holy City," although as a sort of prelude to it, Mrs. Edgar s. Campbell played a piano solo, Miss Chilson. and M. H. Thomas rendered a duet, 'Oh That We Two Were May ing" Mrs. Haywood gave a reading and Miss Chilson sang a solo, ''Here Ye Oh Israel,' each of which was greeted with the most liberal applause.
 Mrs. H. D. Ross gave brief discrip- tion of an oratorio.
 The oratorio was very beautifully rendered. The soloists in the oIatorio were Miss Chilson, Mrs. Leroy Ander- son, sopranos, and Miss Carpenter, contralto, Dr. Yount, bass, and Messrs. Smith and Reymiller tenors, each of whom gave correct rendering of their various numbers. Mrs. Anderson's solo was in reality for a tenor voice, although she rendered it very beauti- fully.s
 Miss Chilson and Miss Carpenter sang a dnet in a manner which elicited applause from the audience.
 The chorus did good work showing careful training and practice while the accompanist, Mrs. W. A. Cline, always excellent, really excelled her self in one of the most difficult roles of the production.
 The chorus was trained by Miss ChiIsOn and the pro uction was given under her very ate and competent directorship.
 The entertainment vas given under the auspices of the La es Aid of the Congregational church r1 the success of it and large attcpaa4ce will net their treasury haud me sum.

Grover Cleveland is very philosophi- cal under the circumstances. He has nothing to say. After the election he took his gun, and with his dog, plung- ed into the woods near Princeton, hunting for small game. Mir. Taggart has hied himself back to his ungrate. ful Indiana. Chairman Cowherd, after the fourth of next March, will attend to business in Missouri. A real lively election is a serious business for some people; it is much like ten strike in a bowling alley.

It is coincidence of more or less significance that the shortage in the county treasury amounts to practically the same amount of money that the board of supervisors presented to the United Verde Copper company, s15, . 900. It is just little more too than was expended by the board in placing those rocks Tn the plaza. When the county money goes in this way, in blocks of thousands of dollars at a clip is there any wonder that taxes are high?

A. A. Housemann, of New York, makes the startling announcement that he won individually on the ele3- tion the sum of 51, GOO, GOO, betting an Roosevelt's majority, on state plurali- ties, and on the governorship of New York, as we'll ds on other state offices. He won s1OO, 900 flat that Parker would not have by twelve as many electoral votes as Bryan did. Housemann cal led bet on Mis- ;ouri of s5, 900 to S2C0 that it would go democratic, and Ee won that also. He also bet S25, 900 that Roosevelt's popular vote would exceed that of Mckinley by 800, 900, which ke also won. A New York dispatch says that one combination of politicians won over 8, GOO, 900 on Roosevelt, and the many brokers who placed this sun will verify it.

EXPOSING THE WILDCAT.

Already the election of President
 Roosevelt is being carefully weighed
 and considered in every channel where
 publicity is desired and especially SC among the corporations. Incidentally publicity is one of the most potent
 instruments for the enforcement of
 the presidents policy and the estab-
 lishmens of the department of labor
 and commerce was the direct outcome
 of reform needed.
 Though the actions of the govern
 ment cannot bear directly upon the
 problems arising from the dealings of
 interruptions "mining' company agents with their clients, when it comes to this matter of publicity, be- cause mining companies are under the control of the individual states and they do not engage in Inter state com merce as a general thing, the position of the president is sure to have salu- tary moral effect upon all business and the mining investment business as we'll. The best reason why mining companies which appeal to the public for financial support should conform to the policy of candor in dealing with investors is a selfish one. They cannot expect to thrive if they pursue any other policy, and legitimate min ing enterprises demand it absolutely in the interest of their own preserva- tion.
 In view of the established fact that the president will in the next four years adhere rigidly to his methods of reform, the belief prevails iD eastern centers that the plan outlined by the administration and conducted up to the present in certain channels by exposing the aims of certain unscru- pulous companies, will be enlarged and the mining fake investors will come under the ban henceforth of the duties to be considered by the depart ment of commerce and labor at Wash ington. It is the general belief that a law will be passed to cover this par ticular line of transactions, and the inducement for such a radical law emanates from eastern centers where millions have been subscribed and lost in western mining investments. Such a law will be wholesOmely re- garded, and none will welcome it any more than will the community to be the most affected by it. President Roosevelt will tolerate no evil in any avenue of investment, and the placing of mining in the list of unfair corpor- ate methods should be considered just as much as any other aggregation that attempts to tleeces the people out of their money.

After all the administration cannot be waging very severe war in the Philippines, or elsewhere, for the of ticial reports show that during the year ending June 30th, but three officers and twenty seven privates in the regular army were killed. This is not bad when we recollect that some 70, 900 men are now enlisted under the flag. During the same period of time three officers and thirty five privates committed suicide and forty six pri- yates were drowned Hereafter the soldiers at the various posts will be taught how to swim.
