The window through which the
note had been thrown opened upon
the garden. In front of it rose a
large handsome house whose occu-

madame's curiosity. For the first

house from behind a curtain and
reviewed the inmates.
Suddenly at one of the windows

passed his hand through his long

number of years, and he is, or was, one
of the vice presidents Of their national
organization. The cigarmakers are
relatively well organized, because it is
trade which, generally speaking,
lends itself readily to the unionizing
principle. But there are probably more
non-union-made cigars smoked in
America today than are made by union
men. Besides, union cigars made in
New York are not produced under the
same wages and labor conditions as
those made in Minneapolis.
The conflict, then, between the va
rious opposing interests is always on.
1t necessitates much more than the
mere getting Of men to join the union,
to make unionism an actually, and
Samuel Gompers has so found it.
Mr.. Gompers' success and perman-
ence in leadership is attributable to
many things, but to none more than
his refusal to tie up to a collateral re-
form movement-of a political or semi
political nature. If Gompers has taken
a hand in politics it will be hard to
establish the fact. If he was for Bryan
and against Mckinley, the public never
knew it. He was on friendly terms
with such men as Senator Marcus A..
Hanna, who was the arch-type Of the
into national politics.
Mr.. Gompers steadily steered his
course clear Of the socialistic move
ment. Repeated efforts were made to
swing the American Federation Of
Labor into an Endorsement of the so
ciallstic propaganda, and on this issue
Gompers made the hardest fight of
his career, and on one or two occa-
slons, notably at the New Orleans con-
vention, he came to the very verge of
defeat. His position has always been
that the labor unions could not control
the opinions and conduct Of the men,
bership except upon the very narrow
lines upon which the unions were
formed; that Is, regulation Of wages,
hours of labor and such simple details
as could be understood fully by the
most ordinary intellect in the organic
alton.
Moreover. Mr.. Gompers has generally
stood for peace, not war, in the relation
Of the labor organizations to the en-
ployers-peace and persuasive meas
ures, the ballot, in the selection of
friendly candidates, and the avoidance
Of expensive and disastrous strikes,
whenever possible.
It is generally believed among those
who are in a position to Judge that in
that higher sense which really tests the
character of a man, Samuel Gompers
has been honest. In this age Of graft
ing in the labor movements as we'll as
out Of it, with the careers in mind OF
such men as Samuel Parks, who went
to Sing Sing and afterwards led the
labor parade in New York city, Sam
uel Gompers stands out as a conspicu-
GUS and honorable leader
In the larger sense Samuel Gompers
has been one-sided. He is the cham
pion Of organized labor. AS such he
can see the good only in what tends to
build up labor unions and only evil in
the forces which tend to oppose them.
1t Is but natural that he should take
this view. If Mr.. Gompers had the task
of running great business enterprise
