Members of the last legislature who
failed to support labor union bills, or to
fight the bills to which labor unions
were opposed, are all put on the black
list in the report of the legislative COM
rnittee Of the State Society Of Labor
and Industry, which was issued Thurs
day, and is being sent out today from
the office of Labor Commissioner W. l..
A johnson.
In the report, the vote of every mem
Der of the house and senate on every
important measure is set forth, so that
every union labor man in the state can
look up the record Of candidates in the
next election. Tt seems to be the pur-
pose of the labor unions to make an
especial effort to defeat for reelection
the men who did not line up right in
the last legisla ture. The committee in
mendation. which, acted upon Will
make the union labor issue one to be
considered in the next campaign.

more of our members take an active
Dart as individuals in their local and
state politics, making themselves felt
as a political power and it viii greatly
increase the success Of your committee.
Tt Is not sufficient that a working man
go to the polls on election day and vote,
but we should go to the ward or town
ship primaries and see that union men
of good standing are sent as delegates
to county conventions, and from there
to state conventions, to the end that

for the positions of trust and honor in

ROBSON OUT OF 1T.
He Withdraws From the Race for
Railroad Commissioners sfs

It is announced in the Ell Dorado pa
pers that J. ". Robson, of the state
board of railroad commissioners, will
not be a candidate for reelection. This
is an official statement from Mr. Robi1
son. and is merely confirmatory of the
rumor which has been prevalent for
some time.
The political situation in Butler coun-
" and the Eighth district was such that
there did not seem to be much chance
for Robson. He was certain to have
some strong opposition.
1t is easy to understand now why
Robson was so frank in his statements
concering Carr Taylor. He didn't care
whether school kept or not, or whether
his utterances would have any po1iti-
cal effect He was used by the other
members of the board to pull the chest
nuts out of the fire because the opera
ton wouldn't scar him.
