The American Federation of Labor will nau-
gurate an earnest eight hour working day move
ment throughout the country. In many trades
eight hours is the normal working day, and where
it is accompanied by increased efficiency of labor
as is often the case, there is no loss to the EN-

it is the efficiency of labor that counts more than
the number of working hours

The old Philadelphia gang has proved itself still
familiar with frauds In one election district of a
ward ffty-nine votes were cast against the loan
bilf that the gang advocated, but only three of
them were counted. In Philadelphia voting has
been reduced merely to the art of counting. The
men inside the election booth can well afford to
laugh at the array of citizens who imagine that
they are exercising their rights to take part in
their own government.
