ing in part:
"In the tendency to centralize pow

which has been given such an impetus
of late, there is danger to our consti-
tuition and integrity and dignity Of
the States. A number of the impor-
tant laws Of the State Of Missouri are
now embalmed by Federal injunction

cases are tried the Court will probably
hold they might as well be killed as
to be chloroformed by injunction un-
til their vitality is gone.

prejudiced against railroads as such
but they object to the Federal Court
despotically enjoining the State from
enforcing its laws before they have
been declared invalid -

DENVER, Colo, June 16.-As an out
come Of the split between the Western
Federation of Miners and the Industrial
Workers Of the World, new interna-
tional industrial organization may be
launched in the near future. Acting
President c.. e. Mahony of the Western
Federation of Miners, which is now
holding it's fifteenth annual convention
in this city, has already indorsed the
policy of refusing to pay any more per
capita tax to the Industrial Workers
order and is inclined to join in the
movement for new Industrial order.
"It is quite probable said Mr. Ma
honey today, ''that a new international
industrial labor organization Will be
formed, with such orders as the Wes-
tern Federation and the Brewery work.
ers to start it, and with many more In
fluential labor bodies focking to 1t as
soon as success seems probable. There
seems to be strong inclination for
such a move, but of course could not
say positively what will be done"
In report from President g. o.
Sherman of the Industrial Workers Of
i the World the following explanation is
made of an occurrence at the conven-
ton of the Industrial Workers con-
cerning which Vincent st. John, q
member OIL the executive UOhLu u lilO
Western Federation Of Miners, made
bitter complaint last week In his re-
bort to the federation convention:
"On October 4, 1905. there were no
tenants on the fifth floor in Chicago,
where our headquarters were, except
ourselves. We had two guards sta
toned below because Of threat the
other side had made, In effect: "A dele
cation will come to headquarters and
clean up every living SOUL
when Vincent st. John and w. w.
Heselwood attempted to secure admis-
sion the guards first refused them, and
on taeir second attempt slapped st.
John on the neck, whereupon the two
men retreated."
From Mr.. Sherman's statement 1t ap-
pears that Acting President Mahoney
of the federation, whom st. John
charged with responsibility for the
treatment given him. really had moth
ing to do with the affair
The federation officers have received
a letter from w. J. Canaman, secretary
of. the Industrial Workers of the World,
saying he would be glad to resign In
favor of any other man If by so doing
the Western Federation could be in
duced to return to the organization and
pay up it's back dues, which have been
withheld.
