Present indications point to great
labor troubles before long. The
management of the leading rail-
roads Of the country are evidently
contemplating a general wage re
duction on their lines, to become
effective soon, and the railway la
Dor unions are evidently not going
to submit without struggle. So
we may look forward to a repeti-
ton of the great railroad strikes of
1898 and 1894. That President
Roosevelt has had an inkling If
what is coming is shown in his let
tor addressed to the Interstate
Commerce Commission, directing
that body to make investigation of
labor conditions on railroads where
there is a possibility of conflict
over the question of wages. AS
the developments consequent upon
the ''rich mans panic' come ia
light the more it looks like a stud
led precipitation of trouble by Or
ganized capital to bung down the
general level Of wages. BY caus-
ing q business depression a large
army of unemployed has been ere.
ated, and now this army will be
used to assault the wage scales OF
organized labor. By these ruth
less methods capital is rapidly
bringing about its own downfall,
and upon the ruins socialism will
build its industrial system.

To the congressional con ven,i"n
to lie held at Dc Soto IN May 27ih
the following delegates were cleo
ted: NJ. E. Rhodes, J. K. White-
head, B. Is. Smith, 5. W. Collins.
Walter Sch,naltz, T. H. B. Paul,

chell, w. H. Kuitt, L A. Page.
The delegates are uninstructed
except that they are authorized to
cast the vote Of the comfy as they
may judge best.
The following resolutions were
passed:
Whereas, Capt. W. L. Hunter
has for nsore than forty years held
the office of Chairman of the Re-
publican Central Committee of
Washington County, and has been
ever faithful and untiring in his
efforts in behalf of the party, and
has this day been retired from his
Office. as his own request, be it,
Resolved, that this mass couven-
tion of Republican voters of Wash
ington County tender him vote
of sincere thanks for his faithful
and efficient service and untiring
efforts in behalf of the party.
The following resolution submit
tel by Hon. NJ. Rhodes, was
adopted by the convention:
Whereas the present tariff law
has been in operation more than
ten years, and the commercial and
industrial conditions in the United
States have so wonderfully devei-
oped and expanded on account Of
the same; and whereas the produc-
ton of barytes has become an i'm
portant industry in the United
States, especially in Washington
County; Missouri producing more
than 30 per cent Of all the barytes
in the whole country and Wash
'ington county producing more
than all the other counties in Mis-
souri,, and there being no duty on
the various articles manufactured
from barytes, and there having
been more than one fourth as much
barytes imported into the United
States in 1907 as were produced
in the United States in that year,
and more than 5000, 900 pounds
imported into the United Statos in
the month Of January, 1908;
And whereas, every plant in the
state of Missouri engaged in the
manufacture of barium products
is now closed;
Therefore be it resolved, it is the
sense of this convention. and the
sense of the Republicans of Wash
ington county, the present tariff
schedule should be readiusted by
the Republican party at the ear
Iiest practicable date and such a
duty placed on baryteS both on tho
raw material and manufactured
article u will afford reasonable
protection to the American miner
and manufacturer against the for
eign product, and that a recon-
mendation to this effect be placed
il the Republican platform of the
State of Missouri and in the Re.
publican National platform ut tho
National Convention in Chicago.
