CONCERNING UNCLE JOE"

Last week one of the ablest and
best liked Republican members of
congress, J.. Adam Bede,7 OF the Eighth
Minnesota district, was defeated for
denomination by members OF. his own
party because he declared himself un-
flinchingly in favor of the reelection
as speaker of Joe Cannon. This seems
to be fair indication: of Republican
sentiment concerning the car Of the
lower house of congress. Golfers
Weekly, which so far" as it. has any
policy, is certainly friendly to the Re-
publican party, denounces Cannon un-
reservedly, and last week printed a
communication in which it was said
that If Taft and Sherman were elected
the: long arm Of the speaker would
reach from the house end of the capt
toll to the senate and make the puppe,
Sherman do the bidding Of the auto
crat in the speakers chair.
President Roosevelt, in 1891, said Of
Cannon: "We cannot escape from the
fact that it was no credit to the Re-
publican party of the house that Mr..
Cannon of Illinois should be one of
its leaders, Cannon then was TEN
porarily out Of Office, the only time
he has been out Of Office in thirty
five years. Among all the prominent
Republicans there is none upon whom
the country looks with so much hest
fancy and doubt. His face is always
set against any measure for the good
Of the people, his power: is invariably
exerted for those measures that are
demanded by the great interests.
Whether as a result OF this. attitude
or not, the fact remains that after
thirty five years Of od1eeholding, with
only ~ moderate salary most OF the
tinne, "'Uncle Joe'' has grown rich, his
wealth increasing ah his power in
creased. He Is emphatically an issue
In this campaign not merely an issue
between the p emo ratic and Repub-
.lican parties, but between the decent
and patriotic element and the corrupt
element which =, ~. he 4, % 4, long domi-
mated.

BOOM THE LABEL,

BY Catherine J. Dempsey, Duluth.
Men and women, boom the label!
Never buy a single thing
Which hasn't union labors trademark.
Which to us in time will bring.
Freedom from the wrongs which grind
us;
Freedom from the chains which bind
us;
Freedom for the little children in the
factories and mines;
Freedom for the toilers, in all ma
lions and all climes.
0 the sadness, O the heartaches,
O the prayers sent to the throne,
Pleading for our daily bread,
But instead we get a stone.
Midst plenty in this wealthy land
Sorrow and wants on every hand.
And hunger's ghost stalks round us
and haunts us through the night;
But out from the gloom and darkness
there CLEANS a cheering light.
This Star of Hope Is the Label,
The Light that leads us on,
And cheers us on our weary way
With faith that's firm and strong.
So the Label IL be our banner,
And We'll sing "a loud Hosanna,
For it will win our battle and our
struggles will be oer
So be loyal to the Label, friends,
forever evermore.

seventy MILLION or
DOLLARS WAS. GRATED
BY the Railroads From the People
of This Country Since
1880.

Representative James T. Lloyd, Of
Missouri, chairman Of the Democratic
national congressional committee, on
March 10, 1908, exposed the fragrant
theft OF the peoples money through
the unfair weighing Of mails when Of
fetal tests were made to determine
what compensation u. the railroads
should receive. He said:
Mr.. Chairman, in delivering my ad:
dress few days since ON postal con-
ditions, in discussing the interpreter
ton of tile law as to the weighing Of
the mail, failed to state Che law on
the subject, and wish to do so now:
The average weight to be ascer-
tanned, in every case, by the actual
weighing Of the mails for such num-
Der Of successive working days, not
less than thirty, at such times after
June 80, 1873, and not less frequently
than once in every four years.
Later the time was changed to
ninety days. Otherwise the law has
not been changed to this date.
Until March 2, 1907, the depart
ment required the mail to be weighed
Tor ninety days. Sunday was not con-
s1dered, so that the weighing covered
a period Of one hundred and five days
instead of ninety successive days. In
other words, working days were con-
strued to mean week days. Postmas-
ter General Cortelyou changed this in
depreciation which had been accepted
as correct for over thirty years and
issued the following order rs his con-
struction of the law:
That when the weight Of mail is
taken on railroad routes, the whole
number of days the mails are weighed
shall be used as dlvisor for obtain
Ing the average weight per day.
"This required in effect. that in
stead of dividing the number OF work
Ing or week days In the weighing
period, the devisor should be the nun
Der of days on which mail was actual
~ carried during the period. If it
was weighed one hundred and five
days, tie divisor to obtain the daily
weight was one hundred and five. If
the mail was not carried ON Sunday,
the divisor would be ninety. This, as
you can readily see, would give less
compensation for carrying the full
week than for six days, for the &C.
cumulated mail would be practically
the same whether carried in six. days
or in seven.
1.-THE present postmaster general
seeing this predicament, issued another
order Of construction, known as. order
412,' which is as follows:
=. That when the weight Of mail is
taken on railroad routes tie whole
number Of days. ipcIudsd IN the Weigh
ing period shall be used as a divisor
for obtaining the average weight per
day
If the construction up to last year
was right, then there has been with
held from the railroads this year over
$1.700,OQ0 that is theirs under the law.
If the present construction is the prop:
er one, the railroads have received
over $7O,0O0OOO since 1880 that be.
longs to the people; 50 that whichever
view is sustained money has been
wrongfully withheld through the post.
