Senator Bailey is precisely right IN
demanding that il the legislature is
to investigate his public or his

strictly to specific charges made
under oath by anyone who wishes to

The congress was hostile to tho
Liberal Government, which was de-
nounced at every turn, and even John
Burns, the labor representative in the
Cabinet, was condemned as renegade
to the cause of labor. On the other
hand, socialism as a distinct force re-
.ceived little comfort from the con.
gress. The whole trend of the con-
gress was toward concentration OF all
the labor forces and the subordination
of theoretical differences and ultimate
aspirations TO the practical and urgent
needs of the present time. The larger
program Of the unionists however, In
cludes land naturalization, state in.

BRITISH UNIONS AND POLITICS

The British trade union congress no
longer arouses the interest OF public
men and political workers 10 the de
gree OF former years. The rise OF the
Labor party and its activity In the
House OF Commons, its open programs
and conferences, have largely. n not
entirely deprived the annual trade
union congress of It's general political
significance. That fact, by tbs way
accounts for the announced withdrawal
from the congress OF the Amalgam.
atod Society OF Engineers, with 100, 900
members.
Yet the trade unions meet In con
ference primarily for industrial and
economic purposes and secondly for
political. Hence the congress still
serves as an index to the wishes. de
mands and views of organized labor
In Great Britain, and IN this sense the
recent meeting at Bath deserves atten.

The entries are very well filed, even
more than the management expected
There are over 5000 entries on exhibit
at the fair. There are FIVE hundred
in the stock department of sheep, hogs,
cattle and horses: 375 in the poultry
department; 500 in the horticultural
department. exclusive Of the displays
of the various Grange exhibits. The
remainder Of the entries are in the art
and educational department. The dis.
play of machinery and farm imple-
meits is one OF the features OF the
fair and is the largest ever seen at
a Stark county fair.
The management has suffered, a
great disappointment in not being able
to have Knabenshue and his airshiD.

been broken and that II would take at
