ever until one of the delegates who
had come all the way from New York
said: The police are not so much re-
sponsibie for arresting our pickets as
are the persons UP there (pointing to
the Mayors ofice). The Mayor is the
man who is trying to break UP our
union. We do not blame the police.
They are working for a living and
must obey orders. The people Inside
are the responsible ones"
President Gompers of the American
Federation OF Labor has already rolled
up his sleeves and entered upon the
fall political campaign. He has taken
a vow to do his utmost to defeat some
of the present representatives in Con-
gress who are seeking another term.
He has issued an appeal to the thou
sands of unions and millions of men
identified with organized labor in the
country TO subscribe to the campaign
fund. If he should receive a metallic
reply to his appeal from each local
and rades-unionist addressed he would
have fund far in excess of 50, 000. 900; /;
but it is hardly expected that the fund
will reach that figure. His aim is to
defeat those Congressman who have
shown a disposition to sidetrack labor
legislation.
