FEDERATION IN SESSION
Twenty-Eighth Annual Convention of
the American Federation of La
bar Meets In Denver.
Snecial to the Herald.

s. kopSCISil " thS 1iSietAe.
Denver, Colo, Nov. 9.-In the Den
yer Auditorium, where the democratic
hosts assembled last July and named
William ]. Bryan for president, there
were gathered this morning hundreds
of representatives of the worlinsmen
of America. They were the delegates
to the twenty-eighth annual conven-
ton of the American Federation of
Labor and among them was represent
ed every trade and every industry of
the United States. 1t was an assem-
blage of brawny, fine-looking, intel
lectual representatives of the toilers,
and one that must have Immediately
Impressed itself on the minds of the
scores of spectators who filled the
galleries and balconies of the big hall.
Promptly at 10 o'clock President
Samuel Gompers mounted the plat
form, accompanied by the other. Off
GERS of the Federation, members of
the executive committee and fraternal
delegates representing the Western
Federation of Miners and the organ
lied labor bodies of Canada and Great
Britain. The appearance of President
Gompers was greeted with loud and
prolonged cheers, many of the dele
gates rising and cheering the en-
thusiastic greeting for several min
utes. After quiet had been restored
welcomes were expressed in behalf of
the state of Colorado, the city of Den
yer and the labor unions of the mu-
nicipality, and appropriate responses
were made by President Gompers and
several of the delegates.
The annual address of President
Gompers was the chief feature of the
opening days proceedings. The ad-
dress was one of considerable length.
Though it required more than two
hours in its delivery the delegates
manifested not the slightest sign of
impatience and gave it close attention
from beginning to end. The salient
points of the address were greeted
with loud applause, and when Mr..
Gompers had finished he received a
hearty ovation. Naturally the most
interesting paragraphs of the address
were those dealing with the participa-
ton of the Federation in the recent
campaign and election, injunctions, |
the boycott, eight-hour legislation and
undesirable immigration were treated
at considerable length, and in Mr.,
Gompers' customary vigorous style.
irtaaspread Of child gislation
was commended and the delegates
were urged to renewed efforts in the |
work of organizing labor and dissent |
mating labor propaganda.
The address of President Gompers
was followed by the annual reports of |
Secretary Frank Morrison and Treas
urer John B. Lennon. The report of |
the executive committee also was pre-
sented The convention is expected
to remain in session at least as week
as many matters of importance are
slated for consideration and action.
The indications are that the present
officers of the Federation will be re-
elected without opposition.
