lsh, with editorial comment, the re
plies of a large number of Con-

inquiring as TO their attitude on the
questions discussed in labor's bill
OF grievances, which was presented
TO President Roosevelt, the Presi-
dent pro TEN. Of the Senate, and the
Speaker of the House in the last
session OF Congress.
In introducing the replies, Presi-
dent Gompers viii say in part:
IN the bill Of grievances we ap-
pealed to those lOsPonsible for Iegis-
lation, or for the failure TO enact,
and expressed the hope that the
appeal would not be in vain. and
added that If perchance Congress
did not heed labor's request, the
toilers would appeal to the consci-
ence and support of our feuow-citi-
zens. Submitting TO the dictation
Of its vested and responsible lead
ers, Congress utterly failed to ac-
cord the rights or grant any relief
requested.
Indignation Was Great.
The Indignation felt among the
wage-earners and the people gen

and their interests made itself

fest in all sections of the country.
and from all quarters came inquiries
from their respective constituencies
regarding the attitude of certain
