The matter Of preservation Of the for

as it was BY Speaker Cannon before the
National Wholesale Lumber Dealers as

that the Western Federation Of Miners
would not surrender any OF the propo-

bring about affiliation with the rest Of
the trade union movement 1t appears
that he gave out the same views at
indianapolis.
It is well known that the leaders OF
the United Mine Workers are opposed
to the adoption OF a political pro

voted down at the convention in In
