Editor Labor ArguS:-I have Il

nent gold democrat OF this section,
who has been dead Tor more than
two years, with the photographic
signature OF +. IT. Hitchcock,
chairman republican national com
mlttec, earnestly appealing tor ii :
nancial aid.
1t has evidently been sent broad
cast throughout the country and
shows to what straits the God
morality party of trusts has boon
driven. as well as the fear that
Mr.. RooSevelt'S heir apparent will
be defeated without an immense
corruption fund. Though Carnegie

UNION LABOR
WINS STRIKE

chalks up a notable victory. This
time it is against railroad sup

wall OF 5000 men out on strike re-
manned steadiast to their principle.
The LamieuN act was, invoked to
split their ranks, coercion was
tried, starvation, vitupcration and
villiiication, but, like Blanca. who
stood upon the burning deck, the
wall was still there. No nobler
body of men stood before the guns
of the enemy than did these
brothers across the line. 1t was Il
question of principle as great as
any for which the blood of nations
has been spilled. and they stand
out as heroes in the great cause
which trades unions Stanu-thc
right TO labor and enjoy the fruits
thereof.
Eight thousand men were affect
ed by the strike. and but 400
drew benefits. 5000 men going
through the Struggle. The 400
men had but $4,000 to receive in
the way of benetts-but Sc. 10
per member for the entire period.
or the 80 600 the Brotherhood Of
Locomotive Firemen and Engine
men and the district lodge Of

and Northern Pacific gave 81 900.
In the LamicuX act there are
some peculiar featurerS. The
government attempted to show
there were two divisions OF the
road, one east and one west but
the men claimed it was one corpo-
ration and refused to have the
matter considered in any other way.
Had they not so insis ted they
be divided. the one end PLAYED
against the other, and thus weak
cncd. The men stood solid. The
committee refused to consider the
question but us one road and
victory was the reward for their
wisdom.

In accordance with your in
rltition | wish to state that in
my judgement, the election of
Bryan would be for the best in
tercStS Of the whole nation.
He stands on the much better
platform and will he guided by it
III the event of his election. Mr..
Taft is handicapped by the jealous
advocacy of his cause by the
predatory rich. Honest wealth
and business have nothing to fear
in Hryan'S election.

Death of Joel S. Barnard

The information has reached US that
Joel S. Barnard, perhaps the oldest set
tier on Lake Wenatchee, died last Sun
day at the home of his son-in-law, Oil
yer Bates. Mr.. Barnard was over 80
years of age and had lived on the lake
for nearly twenty years. Up to two
months ago, when he had slight
stroke of paralysis, he had been in
fairly good health and did considerable
work. Two months ago, or just be-
fore he had his first spell of sickness,
he proved up on his homestead and
before his death received notice from
the department that his proof had been
accepted and the land awarded to him.
1t was the writer's pleasure to know
Mr.. Barnard, who was kindly, lovable
old gentleman. He has passed from
the strife OF this world to the peace
that passeth understanding. To the
friends and relatives we extend pro-
found and sincere sympathy.

Walter Olive came up from Wenat-
chez last Saturday and spent several
days with Leavenworth voters. Mr..
Olive is possessed Of that political OPP
timism which counts for much with
that large class OF voters that want
always to be on the winning side. II
he was the only candidate for senator
from Chelan and Kittitas counties he
would have walk over for the nomina-
ton, but the coming out of Mr.. Reed
may take enough votes from Mr.. Olive
to require a count.

Del Nc Coy spent last week among
the voters OF the north end Of the
county. He says he was treated very
kindly by the people Of Chelan and
Lakeside and the residents of the
beautiful Entiat valley. He said he
was unable to determine whether their
kindness indicated that they intended
to support him for sheriff or whether it
is habit they have of always making
visitors feel their welcome. He says
if they do not support him he must
remember their kindness with pleasure.

last Saturday was Mr.. Harry Rosen-

Of the situation and was quite con-

rosy optimism that the following Sun
day Review gave a rude shock when
it published poll of some four thous-

put together, or nearly forty nine per
