Norfolk. Va.-That there will be war
to the knife between the American
Federation Of Labor and the National
Association of Manufacturers was evi-
denced Tuesday at the session of the
Federation of Labor here The feder

by looking to the establishment of

through Its counsel.
The claim ia that undue pressure is
being brought by the manufacturers
Of the country against organized labor
to the detriment Of the latter. The
manufacturers combat this in a state
ment made today by James Van Cleve,
president Of the national association,
in which he holds that the object of
his association is 10 put labor unions
on basis whereby they may be held
responsible for their contracts. AS an
instance he cited the pending suit of
the Typothetae against the pressmen,

the statement that 1t will fight the

A resolution was presented by James

At last the value of a dimple-a
woman'S dimple-haS been appraised
by the court. Dimples are now be-
ing quoted at $1,000. The price was
fixed by. Justice O'Gorman in the suit
Of Mrs Euphenia Belle Keller against
a beauty doctor who undertook to
smooth wrinkle upon her counter
ance. This wrinkle came from over
study. and friend advised her to 90
to dermatolOgist and have it ironed
out At the same time Mrs. Keller
decided to have a mole on her chin
excavated. The doctor" offered to
do the job for $3.50, and, getting the
money first, he started in. The mas
saying and the injection that were
used caused her face to swell, and
she consulted regular physician. He
advised her 10 stop the treatment at
once, which she did When her face
returned TO its normal size the
dimple, alas. was gone The mole,
however, continued to do business at
the old stand. The wrinkle also re-
appeared. The first trial resulted in
verdict for the plaintiff, but the
beauty doctor appealed. Now Justice
OGorman and jury in the Supreme
Court have confirmed the verdict, and
the price of the dimple has been ir-
revocably fixed at 81, 200.

FARMERS IN EUROPE.
Washington POST

During the trip to Europe, from
which l have just returned. l found
that the farmers are more prosperous
than they have ever been, but are
in no sense as independent as the
tillerS of the soil in the United
States" said George P Hampton, of
New York, a member of the legisla-
tive committee of the National
Grange, at the New Willard yester-
day.
Over there the population is so
dense il is but natural that the pro-
prietorship of the land should be the
basis of aristocracy," he went on
The lands are held by a compare
lively few land barons, who merely
permit the farmers to be their ten
ants. Men may struggle and find
prosperity in a moderate way, but
the original asset from which the
prosperity comes remains in other
tands.
This produces class feeling and
makes impossible the sturdy indo-
pendence which our farmers have
The close relations existing between
our farmers and the government,
through the department of agricul-
tUre. do not exist in England, France
or Germany. With the extension for
means of communication my the tele-
phone, good roads and newspapers
the farmers of the United States are
the most prosperous, happy and con-
tented class of persons in the world"

WATTEDSON ON BRYAN.
(Atlanta Constitution.)

Editor Henry Watterson has just
returned from his annual visit to
Europe and in passing through New
York he gives out a brief interview
in which he says that Mr.. Bryan
seems to be the only man in the
running for the presidential nomina-
ton. He intimates that Mr.. Bryan is
not at all keen for the nomination
himself, otherwise he would show
greater sense of responsibility than
he does.
There can be no doubt that Mr..
Watterson reflects a very general
sentiment when he conceded the al
most undisputed popularity of Mr.
Bryan as the Democratic candidate
and at the same time recalls those
little things which at times look like
lack of responsibility on the part
of Mr. Bryan.
Without going so far back as his
advocacy of free silver and his in
SiStence that it should, in substance.
he made a part of the platform at a
time when it really was no longer an
issue, one needs only to remember
the Madison Square Garden speech,
in which he came out rather strong
for government ownership of rail-
roads.
1t is not easy TO see why Mr.. Bryan,
with full sense of his responsibility,
should have thrust so radical a state
ment before the people, and yet it
must be confessed that the spirit of
his declaration was that unless the
railroads adopted a more conciliatory
policy towards the people, they would
drive the people into adopting govern
ment ownership whether they wished
it or not. He certainly does not re-
gard the taking over of the railroads
as one of the duties of the present
time or the immediate future.
Whatever individual views one may
entertain in regard to government
ownership of railroads, looking to
the only hope of the Democracy in
the next campaign, it is a matter of
qualification that Mr.. Bryan himself
has said that the next Democratic
platform should not and would not
any declaration in favor of
such ownership and control. This is
a definite and conclusive statement
which should be sufficient on that
point
And as for free, silver, even Mr.. |
Bryan is not saying much about that. |
The American people have come to
believe in the absolute honesty and !
sincerity of Mr.. Bryan. He has the |
gift of eloquence and the personal |
which naturally win and /
hold friends. Mr.. Watterson is right
in saying that he is the only man in !
the running thus far.
The Kentucky editor is also right |
in saying that the relation of labor
and capital and of franchise corpora |
tons 10 the public is the great issue |
before the public. 1t is growing in
Importance every day. 1t is one If |
