|. W. W. IS At WAR
WITH FEDERATION
E. c. Mahoney, Acting President, Ac-
cused of Allowing the Use of
sIung Shots to XIII
Voters
By Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
DENVER, June 13.-As forerunner
of the split between the Western Fede-
ration of Miners and the Industrial
Workers of the World, it developed to-
day in the report of Acting President
E. c. Mahoney to the federation con-
vention that McCabe union, Western
Federation Of Miners Of Butte, had
adopted resolutions at a local meeting
charging Mahoney with having fraudu-
lently used the funds of the federation
to help the industrial workers and with
being a traitor to the federation. Ma
honey denied the charges and de-
manded that the union file written
charges against him, that the conven-
tion hear evidence and if he be found
guilty that he be expelled from the
federation.
The charges are based on alleged
actions of Acting President Mahoney
and some federation men at the last
convention of the Industrial Workers
of the World.
Vincent st. John of Goldfeld. New, a
member of the executive board of the
federation, was one of the four fedora
tion men at the Industrial Workers OF
the World convention, in his report
said that the minority in the conven-
tion, supported by the officials, stole
all of the offices, refused to make any
report of the condition of the funds and
delayed meetings in order to elect their
delegates. st. John declared that the
officers employed thugs to slug those
who protested against these high
handed proceedings. He said that he
himself was knocked out with slung
shot.
st. John charged that Mahoney was
present when the thugs were employed
and made no protest. st. John also
said that John McMullen, a member Of
the Western Federation of Miners exc
cutive board, knew of the employment
of thugs and conspired with G. o. Sher-
man of the Industrial Workers of the
World to steal the office and run the
convention with a high hand.
The reports created a sensation in
the convention, but up to 1 o'clock,
when the convention adjourned for the
day, in honor of the foundation of the
Butte union, No 1, no charges were Off
cially filed against Mahoney or others.
A severe arraignment was made by
Acting President Mahoney of some of
the officers of the Industrial Workers
of the World He said that his con-
nection with that organization in an
official way was last July when he went
to Chicago to audit its books.

HIGH SCHOOL BOYS
HARD AT PRACTICE

Glenwood, during the baseball season
that has just closed, made an enviable
record. The team representing this
town gained a reputation not only for
itself but for Glcnwood as n place that
is able to produce nine that is both
husky and active.
Now the football season is about to
)rommcnce. The Glenwood high school
boys are out every weekday evening
practicing under the watchful eye of
Superintendent Mayes, the coach, and
so strenuous is the exercise they take
that there is every probability thai
among the school teams of the state,
Glenwood will make fine showing. 1t
pleases the enthusiasts of the gridiron
in any town, just as it pleascs the base
ball fans, to know that there are local
men who are able to 90 out among the
hest of them and bring bcll laurels for
the home town whence they came. Now
Pueblo and other high school teams are
equally confident, AMI if victories are
won by Glenwood in the games sched
ued for the season, it is most likely
that they will not be easily won.

COM. ALDR|CH
IS RE|NSTATED

Monte Vista, Sept. 25:-Governor
Buchtel completed his victory in the
Soldiers and Sailors home case today
when, at special meeting of the board
Commander Adrich, who was dis
csharged some time ago, was reinstated
The resignation of Adjutant- G General
West was accepted, and George Garri.
son, a Buchtel man, was elected in his
place. -Four years ago Garrison was
discharged in favor of West, and today
he has the satisfaction of seeing West
let out and himself reinstated.
The board adopted resolutions COM
mending the actions of Commander AL
drich in every particular and opened
the doors of the home to all the mem
bers who have been expelled, providing
they will take an oath of allegiance to
observe the rules of the home in every
particular. 9N
The board adopted resolution
changing the rules so that no man can
be expelled except by action Of the
board, and that all cases of expulsion
must be tried before the board. The
commander from now on will only have
the right to inflict minor punishments.
All cases calling for heavy punishment
must be considered by the board itself.
This ends the controversy and the
matter will probably now be dropped,
until in some succeeding administration
other candidates arise for the position
held by Commander Aldrich.
The entire trouble has not been so
much the inefficiency of the manage
ment but the desire of other persons to
fill the places in the home and of other
firms to supply the products used in the
home. The governor and his friends
won hands down. The governor won
by discharging those men on the board
who didn't vote to suit him.

CLEMENCY ASKED
BY WALL|HAN
As a Personal Friend of the
President He Wants to
Escape From Trial
HUNTED SIDE BY SIDE

Denver, Sept. 25.-A man well known
in Glenwood Springs, personal friend
of President Roosevelt is more than
anxious that the president interfere in
his behalf to save him from being
brought to trial for alleged completely
in conspiracy to o'efraud the govern
ment in connection with coal land
claims. President Roosevelt has found
himself at the cross roads of duty and
friendship, and the people of this state,
especially of Routt and Garfield coun-
ties, are watching with interest to see
which path he will choose.
With several others, A. G. Wallihan
of Lay, Routt county, close personal
friend of the president and assisting
the chief executive in his books on
hunting and animal life by 1oanirg
valuable illustrations, has been in
dicted, charged iwth implication in the
coal land frauds, and has appealed to
his friend in the White House for mer-
cy and interference.
Wallihan, resident of Routt county
for twenty years and well liked in the
community, declares that anything he
may have done in connection with the
disposal of the coal lands was not with
criminal intent, and his many friend.
believe that he is free of all intentional
guilt. Nevertheless, he has been indict-
ed and must stand trial unless his
friend, Theodore Roosevelt, comes to
his rescue.
Wallihan has appealed to the presi-
dent, laying his case before him and
requesting him to take personal inter
est in the matter and use his influence
to have the ease against him nullified.
Wallihan has been East during the sum-
mer on this mission.
In his hunting expeditions through
the West, President Roosevelt has sew
eral times been the guest of Wallihan
and their fondness for outdoor sport
and literary attainmcnts have drawn
the two men close together, and it is
this close personal relationship that has
led Wallihan to appeal to the president.
Wallihan has been an invaluable aid
to the president in assisting the latter
in his literary works, and the president
has reciprocated in kind for Wallihan,
who is also an author.
1t was only through the kindness of
Wallihan that the occupant of the
White House was able to adequately il
lustrate many of his articles on wild
life. The man indicted by the federal
grand jury for being implicated in the
land frauds possessed valuable prints
of animal life, and when the president
requested them for use in illustrating
his books, Wallihan cheerfnlly loaned
them. And these same plates have
helped largely to make interesting the
articles of Roosevelt.
Wallihan is the author of a book on
wild animal life. 1t is called "Hoofs,
Horns and Antlers,' and is quite ex-
pensive, bringing the author from So to
$12 per copy. President Roosevelt was
so well pleased with the work of Walli-
han that he contributed to the intro
duction of the book. 1t is the hope of
Wallihan the the president will consider
their friendship and put in a good word
for him in this, his time of trouble.
