SOME MISTAKES
BUT MORE GOOD
William J. Bryan Expresses His
Opinion Concerning Work of
the Labor Unions.
PAYS TRIBUTE TO WOMEN
CAN ACCOMPLISH AS MUCH AS
MEN.
PAYS TRIBUTE TO WOMEN

Chicago March 1S.-William J. Bryan.
at the closing conference yesterday in
connection with the industrial exhibit,
expressed the opinion that trade unions
have done more good for society than
any other force in this country.
Although he disclaimed any "scienti-
fic" knowledge of the question, Mr..
Bryan's remarks were received with
much satisfaction by the audience of
union men from the Federation of La
Dor, which attended the meeting.
Some Mistakes Made.
''The unions have made some mis-
takes but they have accomplished
speech. He paid a tribute especially to
the organizations of women in this con-
nectiOn.
when we consider that through
trade unions wages have been in
creased. hours shortened and comfort
afforded the wOrkingmen in greater
measure" he said, Il think we have a
right to say the benefits resulting from
these unions cannot be Over-estimated.
Perhaps 10 other force in the country
ever has been so effective for improve
msnt in the citizenship and general
moral qualities of our people
Secured Australian Ballot.
THE Australian ballot system, for
one thing. Is largely due in this country
10 the agitation of the trade unions. /
almost feel safe in saying that had it
not been for the interest taken in this
reform by these organizations we might
still be employing the old system of
voting.
'If the labor union had never done
anything else than raise the age limit
of employment for children in the mines
and factories of this nation, 1 believe
that accomplishment alone would justi-
fy it's existence. No influence in this
country ever has been so evil in its eff
fects as the tendency to crowd our
workshops with children of tender
years It is a most destructive tenden-
cy. and one that the public conscience
should protest against"
Referring to women in industry, Mr..
Bryan said he believed women might
accomplish is much as men through or
ganizatiOn to unions.

When questioned by the lieutenant
concerning how he came TO have posses
sion OF the revolver and his version OF the
shooting. the boy said:
II was sent after the revolver and
was taking II back home to give IT TO
Mr.. Olney in the morning. Then l
thought i would stop at my sisters
house. When I got to the hoor and was
about TO go in the door opened and

trigger and / accidently pulled IL. IL
went off and Miss O'Connor dropped TO
the floor. with the blood running down
her face.
II saw my uncle rush 10 her and then
out of the house. Then I went inside and
put the pistol away and waited until the
policeman came"
The police do not believe he had any
intention of shooting anybody. Deputy
