Gompers denounces the new organization as a futile attempt to break up the trade union movement and compares those at the head of the movement to the three tailors of Tooley Street" He continues:
 These latter day bombasts did not speak or proclaim for even the conti- nent of America. It was too small and ctrcumscribed for their pretensions. They must needs speak In the name of the workers Of the world After an effort of more than six months, the is- suance and distribution of tons of lit- erature through America and every other country on the globe, what was the result? The mountain labored and brought forth a mouse-and very silly little mouse at that"
 The Chicago convention, he says, brought together a number of incon- gruous elements. These included Dan Labor Alliance: Eugene V. Debs, the Socialist candidate for President of the United States in the last two Presiden- tial campaigns also q few people who. he says, pretended to represent the American Labor Union.
 This" he says, "is the conglomera- tion-the Socialist Trade and Labor AL liance, with its vulture-like record. preying on the remains of those who have fallen in labor's battle"

of the Denver Type Foundry for

presses for that firm in Colorado,
New Mexico and Utah. Mr.. Clara
is a genious in his line, and moves

Mr.. Clara for the care. intelligence
and skill displayed in the erection of

When the future historian shall
come to survey the character OF Lee
he will find it rising like a huge noun
tain above the undulating plain of
humanity, and he must lift his eyes
toward Heaven to catch its summit.
He possessed every virtue of other
great commanders without their
vices. He was a foe without hate, a
friend without treachery, a soldier
without cruelty, a victor without op-
preston, a victim without murmur-
ing. He was public officer without
vices,a private citizen without wrong,
a neighbor without reproach, a Chris
tian without hypocrisy, man with
out guile. He was a Cesar without
his ambition, Frederick without his
tyranny, Napoleon without his sell
fishness and Washington without his
reward. He was obedient to author
ity as servant, and royal in author
ity as king. He was as gentle as a
woman in life, modest and pure as a
virgin in thought, watchful as a Ro-
man vestal in duty, submissive to
law as Socrates and grand in battle
as Achilles.

colored presiding elder who believes that
his race is being ruined by love OF ease

In the course of his sermon, he eaid:
The negro is a lawless character, with
out rule in the home, therefore he can
have but little in his church and society
His respect for law and order comes from
a sense Of fear. He does right either from
fear OF punishment or hope of reward.

need not say there are good men and

gospel, a love for life of ease and pleas
