C0MPERS DENQUNCEs
WORKING OF COOLIES
Declares Canal Commission s De-
cision Makes It Breaker
of Laws.

Washington, Aug. 11.-Samuel Com
pers, president Of the American Fedora
ton Of Labor, today issuel 1t statement
concerning the action Of the Isthmian
canal commission ia .ieclding to intro
duce Chinese coolie labor on the Pana-
ma canal. The statement is as fol-
lows: :: -; Pa
cit seems that those in charge Of the
Panama canal construction have regard
for neither law nor principle. First,
IN the most extraordinary manner the
eight law is annulled in the great
est public work ever undertaken by the
government under the pretence that
conditions there are different than they
are in the United States. It must APP
peal to the veriest tyre. that if eight
hours work is regarded as sufficient in
the comparatively temperate zone of
the United States, certainly ten, eleven
and even more hours Of work a day in
the pestilential and miasmatic, atnos-
Phere OF the Panama zone are not only
improper, but outrageous and brutal.
1.-The existing law excludes Chinese
laborers and coolies from the United
States or any Of it's possessions. The
Faname canal zone is an American pos
session, and it is as much a violation Of
the law to bring Chinee coolies there as
1t Is in other portions Of our country.
Some time ago in an interview I
had with Chairman Shonts I protested
against the employment of Chinese
coolies in the Panama canal construc-
ton, as had been published in the news
shonts to do. He there and then he em.
phatically stated that it, was not the
intention then to employ Chinese
coolies, and they would not be emploved
under his administration. -

New Workers. Hold Race Betting
Evil Has Outgrown the
Power of States. :.
New York Herald Special Service.


New York, Aug. 11.-Governor Hig-
gins stands pledged to stop gambling
thruout. the state of New York when
ever and wherever he can be con,
vinced of it's existence. 1t is intended
that President Roosevelt may be back
of this declaration.
Some days ago the governor s atten-
ton was called to the fact that gamb-
ling rooms were in full swing at Sara.
toga. He sent word to the sheriff of
the county that the law against gamb-
ling must be enforced and coupled with
this the threat to depose the sheriff IT
he failed to do his duty:
This action led to criticism OF the
governor in the press: He was, tWltted
at Albany withoue an effort to stop it.
Thereupon he made his sweeping threat.
"Bring me proof said the gov
ernor, 'that there is gambling going
on in New York and it will be stopped
at once if the sheriff can do it. Let
anyone bring me proof that gambling
is going on anywhere in the state and
I will take the same action L TOOK, IN
Saratoga county,
It is said that number of high
grade republicans, who are not in sym:
pathy with boss rule and are opposed
to gambling, have been enlisted in the
anti gambling campaign, which is being
managed by the International Reform
bureau. One of these men, lifelong
member of the party, an ex-state officer
and personal friend of President
Roosevelt, was active in the effort tc
: enlist the president.
The appeal to the president was
based on the plea that racetrack gamb
. ling and poolrooms are becoming 6
national evil, similar to the ole
, Louisiana state lottery, and that as the
lottery could not be crushed until the
national government exerted its power
so the national race gambling system
/ needs the influence of one as strong al
the president in order to crush it.

MOonshiniug in New York.

Don't talk to me about moon-
shining Kentucky said the In
ternal Revenue Agent There IS
more moonshinig going on all The
time in little old New York than
could be done In ten Kenmckys
In the crowded sections Of the
East and West sides, stills spring
up right along and for n while con
duct a flourishfng business in the
low : grade whisky they manufact-
ure. You see, It doesn't take much
trouble to equip a sdll with corn
and yeast, and start IN to make
the mash which is finally turned
out as a pretty poor sort OF whisky.
The great difficulty is in getting rid
Of the peculiar smoke and odur
from the stills without exciting SUI
spicim This is usually attempted
by running the still in connection
with a dye shop or some other
chemical enterprise as blind
We keep watch on all such establish
ments and have the town well-coy-
cred by sharp eyed and sharp :
nosed agents. We are constantly
arresting these small moonshiners
and sending them to jail But
enough spring up in their places
for you TO say with safety that,
as ! say, there's more mJonshlnlne
going on in New York City right
along than there could be in ten

mo- CURE HOOP MOUNDS.

A strict antiseptic treatment of
wounds in horses hoofs caused by
nail pricks and other similar injuries
has been found Reconsideration of
any yet tried by the South Da-
kota experiment station. The method
consists of pairing away the horn
OF the hoof from the affected part
until the blood oozes out. Then
the hoof should be thoroughly wash
ed out with a solution of bichloride
OF mercury at the rate of one part
TO. 500 of wafer. After this is done
absorbent cotton saturated with the
same solution should be applied 10
the wound and the whole hoof pack
ed in cotton and surrounded bya
bandage, which can be kept in place
by a coat of tar. In this way filth
is prevented from coming in con-
tact with the wound. The original
operation should be performed by a
veterinarian, but the subsequent
treatment can be supplied by The
AVERAGE farmer All that is .neces-
sary after the first dressing is TO
pour little of the solution of BIZ
chloride of mercury on the cotton
that projects from the upper part
of the bandage The cotton will alb
sorb enough of the fluid to keep
the wound moistened and hasten the
healing process If such a remedy IS
not adopted soon after the horse
is wounded the owner runs a serious
risk of losing the animal, either
through blood poisoning or lockjaw

Southern chivalry.

MAJ stories have been Icld OF

pears to go to story told by a former
governor Of Kentucky while visiting
in this city recently.
According to the narrator a genuine
Kentucky colonel boarded q street car
which was very crowded, and some
how he stepped on the foot Of a very
pretty woman. OF course the woman
expected the Colonel to apologize, just
rs did everybody else who heard her
give mouselike squeal VIXEN the
Colonel's foot came down.
5 And she looked as though she ex-
pected an apology, but the Colonel,
divining her thought, doffed his hat
and said: "No, madam, I'm not going
to apologize. When the good Lord
was so gracious as to make 1fomen
SO beautiful and charming and with
such wonderfully small feet that a
man has to tramp on them to find
them, then don't think that an apol-
ogy-"
The compliments was too graceful
: for the woman to resist, and all that
followed was a smiling acknowledg-
ment of the Colonel's gallant speech.
