LEGISLATURE Meets

Governor Harris yesterday said
he expected to Issue the call for the
extra session Of tie Legislature
after the official canvass of the
vote Dec. 10, and the issuance
thereupon of certificates of cleo
tion to the members-elect. His
call will provide for the convening
of the general assembly Monday,
Jan. 4.
1t is the program of the Taft
forces to hold the senatorial caucus
the preceding Saturday, Jan. 3,
the same day that it is customary
to hold the separate senate and
house caucuses for the nomi.
nation of the officers of the two
branches of the legi Stature. The
election of the successor to Sena-
tor Foraker then would occur on
Jan. II, as the United States,
which governors, requires the
legislature To proceed to elect u
United States senator "thc second
Tuesday after the meeting and
organization thereof"
Friends of Gov. Harris pointed
out yesterday that he was not
compelled to call an extra session,
the implication being that if no
consideration was given his candi-
dacy for United senator by the
state organization, which is back
ing Charles z. Taft, the chief
ecutive might decline to act,
leaving Governor. elect Harmon
the opportunity to name u Demo
as ad interim senator. If this
was intended as threat to the
state organization to go slow with
their senatorial stating, the COVER
nor himself made it harmless by
promptly stating his purpose of
carrying out the Republican pro.
gram for an extra session.

Gompers Speaks

Denver, Colo, Nov. II AT the
session of the convention OF the
American Federation of Labor
President Samuel Gompers de-
clared that If he were found gull.
ty and fined in the contempt pro.
ceedings against him at Washing
ton, he would go tn jail before he
would pay his fine or before he
would allow the federation to pay
any fine for him. This staten snt
was made by Mr.. Gompers during
discussion of the report of the
committee on the tleasurer's re-
port. The committee recon
ed that Immediately following the
adjournment of the convention the
executive committee shall take up
the proposition of placing it's
funds where they may be removed
from danger of attachment.
During a discussion of the DAN
bury hat case decision President
Gompers said: II am not in
touch with the Democrat party; |
am not Democrat, and am con-
fident l never will be Democrat.
| owe allegiance to no party. ! am
a trade. unionist. May the trade
unionist always be right, but,
whether right or wrong, / am with
the tradeunionists. No man has
denounced the Democratic party
more than |. But when the Dem
ocratic party made our conten-
tions it's own, it would not only
have been ingrat:tude but coward
ice to desert them. If Bryan had
been elected with the hosts of or
ganized labor back of him it would
have given spirit to human free
dom.
