BIG EXCURSION
DENVER LOCAL UNIONS ACT
AS HOSTS
LABOR DELEGATES ENJOY FINE
ANNIVERSARY
Reports Of Committees Next In Order
and President oompers VIII Be
Heartily Supported by
Resolutions

DENVER, Nov. 15.-Nearly all the
delegaaes to the twenty-eighth annual
convention OF the American Federation
of Labor today made an excursion to
the mountains near Denver as guests
of local unions.
Frequent reference was made in con-
versation anon. the excursionists to
the fact that today was the twenty
eighth anniversary Of the founding OF
the organization, comprising $3.50
members, of which Samuel Gompers
has been president twenty-six years.
Reports of committees will be the
order of the next three or four days in
the convention, which will resume its
sessions tomorrow, and the discussions
will probably develop the future policy
of the organization on many important
questions.
The members of the committee on the
presidents report have agreed to a re-
port approving every utterance OF
President Gompers in his annual adj
dress, which was read last Monday
and the convention is expected to con-
cur in the report of the committee
without discussion.
No member of the committee made
any objection to President Gompers
proposition that union leaders refrain
from raising funds to be used in in
junction cases, and to go to jail II need
be, AFTER personally ueIeuuhiS thSh
rights before the courts. Federation
leaders declare the adoption of this
policy will prove more effective in
bringing about reform in the injunc-
ton laws of the country than any
thing else that can be done by or
ganized labor.
One of the expected controversies OF
the convention has been averted by
the announcement of President Thomas
l.. Lewis of the United Mine Workers
that he was not candidate for the
vice presidency of the federation in
opposition to John Mitchell. 1t is UNI
derstood Mr. Mitchell will run against
Lewis for the preside cy of the mine
workers, from which he retired year
ago on account of poor health.
1T is announced that fight will be
made against the reelection of Daniel
]. Keefe as sixth vice president and
member of the executive council. An.
drew Furuseth, president of the Sea-
mems union, has been put forward as
the candidate against Keefe. No OPP
position has developed TO the re-elec-
ton of the other members of the coun-
ell.
