Philadelphia, Pa, March 31.-Thomas
H. Flynn, general organizer Of the Am
erican Federation of Labor, is cam
didate for national president of the
Brotherhood of Boiermakers and Iron
Ship Builders. nominal lions are now
being made by referendum Of the var
ious local Unions. The election ballots
will be sent out by the national office
as soon as the nominations are all in
and the vote for national officers must
be in headquarters prior to June 1.
Judging from the expressions of boiler
makers in this district and others there
seems to be no doubt that Mr.. Flynn
has more than a fighting chance for
victory.
There is no doubt in the minds of
those who have been associated with
him in the labor field for years that he
would make a good and efficient execu-
tive officer If elected. He is a practical
| boilermaker and has been an active.
worker in the trade union movement
for years. In the responsible positions
he has held he has shown marked
executive ability Of such nature as to
indicate he would conduct the business
Of a national office with fidelity and
credit to himself and the organization.
1t was T. H. Flynn who three years
ago conducted the strike of the iron
workers of eastern Pennsylvania and
brought 1t to successful issue.
When he entered the. field there was
no organization. A disagreement in
the tube plant al Reading caused a few
tube workers to strike in a plant where
200 men were employed. Mr.. Flynn
was sent to Reading by the A. F. of L.,
| as one Of the general organizing staff.
| He succeeded in organizing the strikers
and then in getting together the other
hands in the plant.
This formed a strong Union and the
men all quit work. To support this
strike he organized all the puddlers,
rolling mill men and finishers. After
10 weeks and 4 days the Reading
strike was won, with an increase of
wages and recognition of the Union
| throughout Eastern Pennsylvania. He
then organized the National Associa
ton of Tube Workers, in which he had
several strikes, but was successful in
getting higher wages, better conditions
and making this a strong national or
ganization.
1t was he who formed the National
Association of Blast Furnace Workers
and SHELTERS of the United States and
handled several of their large strikes
successfully.
Mr. Flynn was born in New York
State in 1870, and at an early age en-
tered a boiler shop to learn the trade.
He .joinne dthe Knights Of Labor, but
withdrew to Join the Boilermakers':
Brotherhood. He worked h.. boiler
shops and ship yards Through every
section OF the country. ~EHe at one time
held a commission as deputy ORGANIZER
for the Brotherhood of Boilermakers
and Iron Ship Builders, and in 1896
was made a general organizer for the
American Federation Of Labor. He
has held that office continuously since
that time.
The heads Of the A. F. of L. have
great confidence in Mr.. Flynn's ability.
He has been successful in adjusting
trade disputes and in organizing crafts
where vast numbers are employed. One
Of his greatest strongholds has been In
organizing Unions of Boilermakers and

THE APPRAISERS MEET.
comu,s.iou to Fix Value of Half oi
 Capitol Square.

The commission appointed by Judge I. B. Gaston of the Probate Court of Montgomery County to assess the dam ages to property owners caused by the condemnation of half of the Capitol block. held its first meeting yesterday afternoon and outlined the work ahead of it.
 The meeting was held at o'clock in the Chancery Court room in the county court house. All three of the members of the commission, Fred S. Ball, C. G. Zirkle and George A. Thomas, were present. In addition. there were pres ent Attorney-General Massey Wilson and Hon. C. P. Mcintyre. representing property owners.
 The Commission was in session few minutes only After conference with his colleagues. Mir. Ball, as Prest- dent of the Commission. briefly outlined the policy of the body. He said that the Commission was not created Tor any other purpose than to gather ai the facts which might pertain to the just valuation of tho condemned prop erty. He said that all evidence. except that which is immaterial. would be ad- mitted. There would be no fixed order by which witnesses would be examined. Witnesses for the State or for the property owners would appear as suited the convenience of the jury. The Com mission would make such notes as the members thought necessary of the evil dence, but there would be no evidence stenographically taken, as the Commis- sion was a distinctly inferior court and the trial would necessarily be de novo.
 The court had the power of sub poena, he said. but this would not be used except in absolutely necessary cases. as 1t would be the policy of the members of the Commission to make the expense to the State as light as pos sible
 Attorney-General Massey Wilson. said he thought the policy outlined by MT. Ball was admirable.
 Mir. Ball announced that the Commis- sion would adjourn to meet at o'clock this afternoon, when the premises will be examined. Property owners are ifi- vited to be present.
 The Commission will not go into the evidence before Monday.

 Corrects an Impression.
 Later in the day Governor Cunning ham gave out the following interview:
 There seems to be an impression that the invalidating of the Lusk act left the people of some sections of the State without court. but the state ment hereby issued shows that 10 erro- neous. The law is now as itI has been for several years and. with special ses- sions and with the assistance of the supernumary Judge. the dockets can be relieved. <
 Suppose the Lusk act had failed dur ing it's passage before the LeEfslature. Is there any one in the State who would have advised the Governor to call special session of the Leeislature to redistrict the State? Yet we have laws just the same as they were before the Lusk bill passed.
 If the special act creating the Fourteenth Circuit should fail 1t will to certain extent complicate mat ters. but even then Walker and Win ston. the two counties comprising the circuit would have courts sufficient for all needs.
 The political aspect of the matter Of course appealed to me. but I admit that 1t was secondary in considering the case. did not thank that the personal equation should play any part In the solution of the problem. It is to be regretted that gentlemen nomi- mated for offices will have no opportu- nifty to assume them and 1t is to be especially regretted that Judge Paul speake and Solicitor Erie Pettus who have shown such splendid courage and fidelity in the discharge of their duties have been displaced.
 VIII Appoint Nominees.
 "A few have been so unkind as to intimate that one of the reasons why opposed an extra session was the op- portunity that would be given me. un- der present conditions to appoint special judges. When the necessity for appointing special judges arises the people have already indicated whom they would have. I mean by that I will appoint the nominees the special judges. So far as I am concerned, the choice of the people will be mine if the nominees will accept.
 There are many other questions upon which the Legislature with profit might legislate and I have no doubt that time will discover them. The ex- pense which an extra session of the Legislature would involve might he considered. but with me it was another secondary consideration"

at the disposal of the regular circuit tuSres. the supernumerary judge and the appointment of special judge, if necessary, affords as many weeks as are provided by the Lusk act, and as many more as may be necessary. It seems to me, therefore, that with the law as it now exists. there Is a srffi- cient number of courts. judges and weeks, with special terms, to admin ister the law.

DEMAND FOR ENGINES.
Special Trains are Runi in MontgomerS
 RailrOads.

Motive power was in demand on the Mobile and Montgomery division of the Louisville and Nashville Railroad last night and locomotives were scarce.
 The trouble was started when Q special train over the Western Rail- road came in as the second section of train No. 37 from Atlanta bringing sixteen cars of oyster shuckers from Baltimore. A big freight engine car- ried this heavy train out as the second section of Louisville and Nashville train No. 3 to Mobile, the first section being the regular No. at 9:s5 p. m.
 Shortly after 12 o'clock third sec ton was sent south with three cars containing the members, scenery and equipment of The Eternal City conn pany to Flomaton. At Flomaton the snecial caught the regular F. and A. train of the Louisville and Nashville and went into Pensacola where the company will play tonight.

Superintendent of Education A. N. Hawkins of Dale County. has resigned and Superintendent of Education B. B l.. Broughton of Russell County, has done the same thing.
 The terms of office of both gentlemen would have expired in few weeks. It is thought they resigned to allow their successors to begin work with the new year of the schools.
 State Superintendent Hill in each in- stance appointed as their successors the nominees for County Superinten- dent of Education. In Dale County w. NJ. Head of Pinckard was appoint ed and in Russell County J. L. Pol lard of Scale was named. These gem tlemen would have begun the duties of the office in November.

Two Applications Received From Ma
 rengO County.

Two applications for appointment to the office of Sheriff of Marengo County to succeed T. w. Nasty have filed their applications in the Governors office. They are Thomas J. Jackson and w. B. Cooper, both well known citizens and Democrats of the county.
 It has been known for some time that Sheriff Hasty would resign inasmuch as he had been nominated for Probate Judge of the county. His resignation, however does not take effect until De- tober Is and it is not probable that the Governor will take up the matter of naming his successor for several days,
 No application has yet been received from Pickens County to succeed B. H Salmond, resigned, as sheriff.
