people to-day, is whether great individual and
corporate wealth is ininical and hostile to
their welfare, and menace to our institutions.
This question is the more interesting because
It is now the leading theme of argument and

MACHINISTS' UNION
 HOLD BIG SMOKER
PROHIBITION DISCUSSED AND A MAJORITY SEEMED TO BE OP- POSED TO THE MOVEMENT. ANDY MARX SPEAKS.

The machinists' union held a smoker in it's hall on First avenue last night and it was generally agreed that 1t was exceptionally successful from a social point of view. J. B. Drake was master of ceremonies.
 The smoker started out on the order knockers club. More than 200 men were present and municipal affairs came in for share of criticism. Final ly the question of prohibition was taken up and a dozen speeches were made.
 The majority of speakers were against prohibition. Andy Marx, ex- president of the Birmingham Trades council and now president of the Alabama Federation of Labor, spoke at considerable length. He discussed prohibition from its moral, social and economic side, and inveighed earnestly against sumtuary laws. He appealed to working men to stand together for freedom and not be swept off their feet by prohibition talk.
 MT. Marx enjoys the reputation of being one of the most eloquent and convincing labor leaders in the dis trict, and his speech last night was loudly applauded
