bers of the various tribes the distinct
i've Indian national governments were
to be dissolved and all combined in
statehood. The spirit of what has
been done, if not the direct act, all
meant that we should have a state
separate from al. others
That time is now at hand. The
lands have been allotted and the de-
cree made that the government of
the five tribes shall pass out of eX-
istence in March of next year. In 1892
congress passed a law making all In
diaus in the territory citizens of the
United States.
NO action has previously been
taken by our people to secure sep
arate statehood because Indians are
SOW to do anything. They wait until
the fullness of time.

by persons having selfish interests to

of labor from u and IA to and 8
per day, raised wages 80 to 80 per cent
and drove out the "pluckme' stores,
reduced child labor and enforced
many other reforms in the industry.
Cigarmakers cut down hours of labor
from 10 and II to s, in many instances
doubled wages, minimized tuberculos-
is and other diseases and lessened
and restrained the sweatshop curse.
More than a quarter of a million
carpenters and woOdwoTkers gained
the and 9-hour day, Saturday half
holiday at many points, and advances
in wages ranging from 20 to 100 per
cent. In the printing industry the
hours of toll of more than 100000
workers have been reduced from 10 to
IA per day to and 8, and wages have
gone up 20 to 80 per cent. Over 100,-
600 machinists won 20 per cent in
crease in wages and gained a reduc-
tion of one hour in the working day
BricklayeIs stOnecutters, granitecut-
ters, etc, now work hours, as a rule,
at wages is to 40 per cent higher than
when they toiled 10 to 12 hours a day.
In no branch of industry was the
sweatshop and all its concomitant
evils of disease and misery more gen.
orally manifested tnan among the
clothing workers. Yet, through the ef-
forts of the tailors and garment
workers uniOns-alOng with the
splendid assistance given by the Con-
sumers' League-cOnsiderabl of a
transformation has been worked.
Hours of labor have been reduced as
much as 80 per cent, wages have ad-
yanced, sanitary conditions enforced,
child labor very largely abolished, and
the health and happiness Of the work
ers greatly improved. Retail clerks,
wherever organized, have gained re-
ductiOn of working time averaging an
hour a day, and the makers of hats
and caps are better Off, by reason of
having unions. 35 10 40 per cent in
wages, while hours Of labor have de-
creased 90 s and 10 a day.

, statehood That is not true. The only
persons here desiring joint statehood
are those having political aspirations
and those dissatisfied with the re
straints exercised by the executive de-
partment of the United States for the
protection of the Indians"
Chief Porter reviewed the work
thus far accomplished by the consti-
tutional convention called by the
chiefs of the five civilized tribes and
commended IT, He was asked wheth-
er the allotment of the Indian lands
and the formation of a state govern
ment would make their condition bet
ter than it was when they held their
lands in common and had tribal gov
ernment. He threw out his arm as
though to wave the phase of the ques-
ton aside and said, as his voice drop
ped to graver tones:
THAT has all gone by. Let it rest.
While the new condition will make
life IA precarious proposition for our
members and many will fail we have
agreed to do it, and will manfully
meet whatever the future has in store
for us. Our people are not despond-
ent. They were when the charges
were begun, but have now determined
to use every effort to maintain them
selves as citizens of the state and the
United States. The general govern
ment will have to retain sufficient
power within the state to carry out
its promises, These promises can be
assured only IL responsibility for them
is retained by the federal government
ment. No promises made by the state
! in process of formation would be bind
ing after its organization. In the spi-
rlt Of the present age when it seems
| to be eyely man for hlIl5elf, they
might be disrega. Ied.'
Reverting to tho Indian govern
ment, he said: in these later years
greed and self-seelIing became more
evident on the part of clever men whC
| sought to secure for themselves i'm
pOrtant privileges and resources
These schemes came from without
and were furthered by some men with
in. Similar practices prevail in some
of the states.
Il suppose" he added sarcastically
this selfish promotion of personal in
terests at the expense of the mass o
our people was therefore to be regard
ed as evidence of our advancing civil
zation.
Il hope congress will fulfill its pro
mise and give us a separate govern
ment with the people who understand
us and whom we understand ant
-trust Not to grant that would b.
even an act of infamy. Some say w
are to be sacrificed to serve a politi
cal exigency. We are loath to believ
that anything of the sort is possible
We resort to the last hope that tn
} government promises to us will no
prove false"
He was positive in the belief tha
prohibition would be incorporated i
: the constitution.

fits to report that they would not
have If they were unorganiZed.
The foregoing statistics may appear
dry" to readers who are not in the
working class, but those facts and fig
ures are not uninteresting TO trade
unionists. They mean much, but they
do not begin to explain many other
advantages enjoyed in the unions. For
example, how many people know any
thing about the millions of dollars
that are annually expended by the
trade unions in out of work, sick and
death benefits, and to help one an
other in many ways? You seldom, if
ever hear of union man or woman
who is forced to depend upon charity,
and indeed the outside public has but
limited knowledge Of the immense
work that is being done by organized
labor to brighten the lives of the toll
ing masses. And it is no small task
to overcome the deep seated prejudies
and supeTstitiOns of race and creed,
to say nothing of political and eco
nOmic slavishness, and hammer to-
gether a homogeneous, mobile organ
iZatiOn.

mands the children are taken from
the shops and factories and placed in
schools; women workers receive the
same wages as men for performing
the same tasks, and life and limb of
the tOilers and the general health
must be protected.
And, finally, the workingmen of this
country are beginning TO take a broad
er view Of social affairs as a whole,
The advice of the politicians that
union men keep out of politics" so
that the bosses and ward heelers
might run things to suit themselves,
is no longer proving effective. Dis
cussion OF economic and political ques-
tions are now taking place in the or
CARNATIONS, the members are being
educated and united upon questions
that affect their interests as a class,
and this labor movement, besides
playing IT'S part In industrial affairs
is destined TO sweep the bosses and
their grating into the oblivion they
belong.

gate to British Trade Union Con-
gress in 1908.

What has organized labor done for
itself? is a question frequently asked
by sympathiZers a swell as opponents.
In fact this same query has recently
caused a leading American university
to undertake an investigation that
will require upwards of ten years of
time and many thousands of dollars
to supply the information. While
volumes may be written upon this
topic, my answer to the question is,
briefly, the perhaps sweeping claim
that substantially all the improve
ments that labor has gained during the
past quarter of a century, such as re-
duced hours of labor, higher wages,
better living and working conditions
and higher education, culture and re-
finement is directly traceable to the
efforts of organized workers and to no
other source.
Bold statement! Yes? And 7 will
go further and venture the assertion
that it is largely due to the constant
agitation and militancy of organized
labor, its readiness to strike blow for
blow, If necessary, that whatever lib
critics the American people possess in
this age of grinding competition and
trust encroachment have been pre-
served by the struggles and sacrifices
of organized men and women in the
ranks Of labor.
The trade unions of America are
like the regiments of a mighty army
OF 100000 recruits, who are on the
firing line, and who are being edu-
Gated and disciplined for offensive
and defensive purposes. Here a regl-
ment on the left flank may be forced
into fierce engagement being beaten
back and temporarily demoralized, but
it is reformed and prepared for the
next engagement. There a regiment
on the right flank may dash forward
and acquire some new position of ad'
vantage to itself, add strength to the
entire army ana safeguard the com
mon veal.
The mechanics and labOreTs have
not enlisted I'm this campaign because
they are fond of striking and suffer
ing, or marching behind bands of music
on labor day. They united because
they are forced to, in order to save
themselves as individuals from being
crushed by the mOnopolistic jugger
naut. 10 protect their homes and tC
close the door against the wolf oi
poverty.
This is not mere speculation or alb
stract reasoning. Here are some con
crete illustrations that demonstrate
the advantages that have accrued tC
