Seth Low and His Attitude on Strikes-Re-
ligious Newspaper and Supreme Court.

To the Editor If The Tribune
Sir: Your article in regard to Mr.. Gompers's
demand FOR special privileges trades unions.
titled NO New Attitude Is very interesting to
.hose citizens old-fashoned enough believe in the
Declaration of Independence and the Constitution
OF the United States. But The Tribune forsets
how completely new politics opposed to all
policies but those of their leaders and how thor
ouEhy opposed those leaders now are nearly alt
constitutional principles Special privileges for the
poor and unequal Justice between poor and rich
ale contendeJ for by every socialist and every
man who claims TO be especially progressive now
is ranging himself with the socialists.
Mr. Low, 70. instance. has lately informed US
that he believes i'll strikes when they are IN
restraint of trade and IT is Mr.. Low who is chiefly
responsible for the law that Mr.. Gompers is clanor-
Ing to have placed upon the statute books. 1t Is
cheering TO find that The Tribune believes the
people are unwilling to grant Mr.. Gompers special
privileges. but It hardly be denied that the
Civic Federatio represents the tendencies OF An
increasingly large number of people. Charities
and the Commons the Charity Organization Soci-
ety's organ. considers the Supreme Court decision
altogether unfair. and holds that judges should be
educated 10 adopt entirely different views in re-
gard to the rights of working people.
The undertaking ma gaines have for months
been intoxicating class hatred and discomfort with
the established institutions Of the country Is it
likely that all their imprisoned attacks upon
property ana property holders will fail to bear
fruit? Attacks upon the Constitution that would
have been inconceivable in citizens of the United
States Ten years ago are becoming increasingly
common. so that Gompers has plenty Of companions
in his inroads upon forms Of government. Even
religious papers waxing wroth against Su

most widely known in New York has Just pub

WANTS A COLUMBUS HOLIDAY.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: I think It would be well for such q pro-
gressive paper The New York Tribune 10 bring
before the public the fact that present there are
two bills before Congress. making October t. a
holiday in the District OF Columbia. another making
October IL a holiday throughout the entire United
States These bills should interest every patriotic
American citizen, for il is a strange but neverthe-
less true. fact that in all the various holidays
while all very commendable and proper. there is
not one commemorating the discovery of America
by the great Christopher Columbus.
October l2 being the anniversary of the discovery
Of America by Columbus ought 10 be celebrated
such and there is no hitting way OF doing it
than by making that day a national holiday II Is
but fitting tribute 10 Columbus TO have al least
one day aside In honor OF this great and i'm

convinced II you do your share in bringing out the
sentiment CT the Rahiic -egardns this worthy cause

ONE PoDUNk is LOCATED.

To The Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: In answer TO the query in The Tribune Sun
dav supplement- Where is Podunk?" I hasten
to give the desired Information. The place is a
section in the northern part OF East Hartford,
which is opposite Hartford the side Of the
Connecticut River. The place is named for the
Podunk tribe Of Indians. who occupied 1t in 1851
and for several years. In those days Hartford and
East Hartford were one. the population and wealth
being about evenly divided 4 large part OF Pc
dunk came into the legal possession OF some of my
own ancestors and the history of its transfer is
very interesting read. So Podunk is really
truly place the home Of OF sterling
qualities. who brought with them from the Old
World education and culture, and whose descend
ants have inherited the land, well the char
acteristcs Of their ancestors. Surrounded as they
we're by different tribes OF Indians. they had need
OF the daring and bravery which history
shows they possessed. l.. 3. Z.
