PRESIDENT Barrett espied the
newspaper reporters he made
them depart. President Barrett
Is plain man and determined.
de was determined that he should
be heard and whenever a men,
Der was inattentive he got a
quick call down.
Mr.. Barrett, after being intro
duced by President b. Harris
spoke on the subject, "The Farm,
ers, Union" The farmers, he
said, had succeeded far better
than had been expected and al
though cotton has not reached Is
cents, yet when the bottom fell
out of all other things, cotton re.
malned at a good price.
The credit and mortgage sys
tenn, which has been a burden
to the people, has been improved.
The farmers are not buying so
much on credit as formerly.
Now the farmers are in better
condition than ever before. They
have better homes and surround
ings. In fact the farmers are
prosperous.
The Farmers union is growing
rapidly. There are more mem.
bers Joining and there is a larger
paid up membership. The union
has the experience of the mis-.
takes of former organizations

politics." No, we would be fools

let the candidate know what is

talking of partizan politics. or
boosting a candidate. The union
takes no part in such.

LABOR COMMISSION
WANTS new LAWS
Mackenzie Seeks Authority to
Make Arrests When Viola
tiOns Are Uncovered

Among the recommendations that
will be submitted to the state legisla-
ture at it's next session will be those
of the state labor commissioner, who
viii ask that he be given additional
power by which lie will be able to
strengthen the present labor laws and
to enable the commission to perform
more work.
The principal request of the commits
sioner will be for police power, au-
thority to make arrests when violations
are uncovered and the privilege of di-
viding the fines that are collected from
violators.
The labor laws of the state need
strengthening" said Commissioners
Mackenzie yesterday. when we find a
violation we have to secure the assist
ance of the police TO make the arrests
and Of the district attorney to conduct
the prosecution. The city gets the. fine
and the bureau is forced to exist on a
monthly appropriation of 1915.
I'VE will also ask for an additional
appropriation. At the present time we
have only three men in the Office and
there is work for 30. The legislature
has appropriated 1915 month and we
are compelled to pay salaries, travelling
expenses, janitor and light service and
prosecution expenses out OF that.
The bureau is capable of producing
a revenue. Should half of the fines col
lected for violations of the labor laws
go to the bureau we would be partly
sef-supporting."
