Des Moines' Attempt to Get the Lar

School,

0CnOOIs
Special to Times-Republican
Eldora, Feb. 1-Eldora is consider
ably aroused over an article in the DeS
Moines papers of last week to the ef-
feet that a petition is being circulated
in Des Moines in an effort to persuade
Ex-Governor Larrabee to remove the
large pipe organ, which he donated to
the Industrial school for boys from
that institution to the state house in
Des Moines. The claim is made in
this petition that the organ is not be-
ing used in it's present position and if
brought to Des Moines and placed in
the state house, sacred concerts would
be given every Sunday afternoon.
The facts are that the chapel at the
Industrial school was enlarged and re-
modelled to accommodate this organ at
an expense of s3,50O to the state, a
motor was installed at an expense of
$3.50 and 800 was spent wiring for
electricity about the organ. The or
gan is used twice every Sunday and
every Saturday evening some sort OF
an entertainment is held for the boys
at which time the organ is also used.
Music is one of the strong factors of
reform used at the institution. The
boys are proud of their band. which is
ona of the best organizations of the
kind in the state. and being lovers of
music they have become so attached to
the large pipe organ that its removal
would nearly incite spirit of revolt.

Chicago Offer to Serve Out Sentence
Of Court Filming the Organization
$1,000 - Attorney Tells Them It
Must Be Paid In Money.

Chicago, Feb. Five hundred menl-
bers of Typographical Union No. 16
voted unanimously yesterday after
noon to go to Jail. AS they are on
strike, they estimated they might save
the $1,000 fine assessed against the
union by Judge Holdom if they were
permitted to work out the amount in
prison.
After the resolution was adopted q
committee was sent to Attorney w. Fl.
Barnum to learn if there was any hope
for the strikers breaking into Jail and
in that manner satisfying justice. They
were disappointed when their attor-
ney told them that if the fine was up
held by the higher courts it would
have to be paid, and that there was
no prospect of the debt being liquidat-
ed by the strikers going to Jail.

ers I'VE thought that by serving
four days in Jail, counting that we are

tories for the wage earners,' said
Samuel Gompers, president ce the
American Federation of Labor last
night. 81 know of no better exhibi-
tion of loyalty to an organization. De-
spite the adverse rulings of judges
hostile to the aspirations of the work
ers and the attempts of the opponents
of the organized labor movement to
retard our progress. the spirit shown
by the striking printers this afternoon
presages ultimate victory as no other
incident could have done.
THE printers are now engaged in a
splendid struggle to establish the
shorter workday. They have behind
them not alone the good wishes of the
organized workers of our country, but
of all those who believe in the uplift-
ing of humanity. Their cause is right
and just, and never have 1 been SO
sure of their success as 1 am at this
moment.
Praises President Lynch.
"The masterful manner in which
President Lynch, of the international
Typographical Union has handled this
struggle deserves the commentator of
every man who loves his fellows. The
ready response with which the mem
bers thruout the length and breadth
of the continent met the appeal for a
10 per cent assessment of their earn
ings shows how much the printers are
in earnest. Nothing can stop a move
ment that is conducted as well as the
printers strike and is backed by such
splendid intelligence and loyalty on
the part of the members.
There is not a trade unionist in the
country who will not cneerfully con-
tribute to the cause of the striking
printers.
