advocated G measur which he
felt was promot1ve of the best inter
ests of labor. He believes in labor.
He sympathizes with 1t. He sincere
ly wants 1t to have It's just deserts.
He believes it worthy of It's hire. And
his course as a United States Senator
has been living out of his attitude to-
ward labor.
There are men who for political rea.
sons are friendly toward labor. who
would yet stab it in she back If it wasn't
always looking. But not SO with SEN
ator Elkins. For many years he has
been one OF the large employers of la
Dor in this section of the country. And
in all that time he has treated his men
so emfnently just and fair that he has
not had the slightest trouble with
them. Some men may be friends of
labor politically, simply for political
purposes, but the man who is SO on the
square with his employees as to never
have had the slightest trouble with
them, he is the man that proves him
self the real, genuine friend of the
working man. There Is no pretense
about that. It is the real thing. 1t
is the highest test. And Senator Ell
klns has not been found wanting when
that test has been applied. He needs
no better ~vindicatton than that, for
the man who as an employer OF labor
is so emtnently fair with 1t as to neVer
have had any trouble with 1t has the
best sort Of evidence of his real feel
ing toward 1t, and it would but be ex'
pected that his course as a legislator
would coincide with his record as an
employer. And the minutest examtna'
ton of his record as a Senator reveals
that such is the case.
From the time that Senator Elkfns
entered the Senate he has given mis-
unsparing support to every just
Measure advocated by labor. 1t lie
doubtless true that he has not adyo
Gated every proposition advanced by
labor representatives-for they are nc
more than human, and sometimes VII
ask for things that should not In JUS
tice to others be granted-but when
ever they have shown him that the
enactment of a measure urged By
them would be just and fair, he ha:
ever stood ready to lend his power
full support. Senator Elkins feels tina
1 he is a Senator entrusted with the in
~terests of all the people. He is no
the sort Of man to follow blfndly
course laid down for him by any class
of men. It is the man with the opel
eye and the ready ear, the man VIII
will see and listen and Will then CIV
his verdict in accordance therewitl
that labor wants in high places ar
whom the country needs. And such
man is Senator Elkins. A part OF hi
life was spent in Missouri, and h
wants to be shown the wisdom and tn
4justice Of a proposition, and you ca
show him. that you thereby enlist tn
support Of one of the most powerfr
men in Congress. It is that sort OF
man that labor needs in Congress. Th
man who Is branded by his associate

as being but a tool OF the trusts, who
therefore advocated the adoption of
the eight hour system on all public
works. In some cases this has been.
adopted and yet be adopted in other
cases in the future.
Again, he believes in the principle
of employers liability, and he now has
a bill pending in Congress looking to
the extension of that principle to all
labor employed by the government of
the United States. He was one of
those who helped to pass the national
employers liability bill at the past SEES
sion of Congress.
Senator Elkins believes that the me-
chanics of the government navy yards
are entitled to the same consideration
as the clerks in them, and he there
fore introduced and had passed a bill
which gives them leaves of absence
| Just as the clerks have had them.
! He believes that railroads should be
compelled to take every possible pre-
caution for the safety of their en-
ployes and he has therefore had passed
a resolution authorizing his committee
TO investigate the advisability Of the
enactment of a law requiring all rail-
roads engaged in Interstate commerce
to equip their lines with block signal
apparatus.
And so the record OF things Senator
EIkIns has lone for labor might be
extended far beyond the limits OF this
article, many labor organizations hav-
ing endorsed his work. At the same
time that he has been a friend Of la
Dor he has been one Of the most pow
erful men in Congress. 1t was he that
called off the bond deal of the last
Cleveland administration. thereby saw
ing the country more than six million
dollars. The one hundred dollars in
bonds were to have been sold to a syn.
dlcate healed by J. Pierpoint Morgan,
at 104. Senator Elkins told the Sen.
ate that they would bring much more
in the open market, and he got a reso.
luton passed by a Democratic Senate
against a private bond sale, and the
result was that the bonds were SOLD
publicly at a price which saved the
government some six million dollars.
1t was Senator EIkins who stood firm
flor a tariff on lumber when the Ding
ley bill was passed and he saved that
Industry from being practically
swamped by the cheap lumber from
|; Canada.
| 1t was Senator Elkins who wrote the
, Elkfns law under which rebating has
j been getting such. hard blows lately.
!, President Roosevelt recently told Sen
} ator Elkins that he had found the law
i 10 be one OF the most perfect pieces Of
