the State Federation of Labor,
being present was invited to adj
dress the audience. He discussed
with eloquence the original forma-
tlon of the trades union and how
cooperation brought success.
He told of the S-hour law and
why Its necessity. He presented
cogent facts to sustain his plea
for union and cooperation,
"Give us time," he exclaimed,
land we will give you the price
of your products" He said or.
gaDized labor wanted the women
at home, the children at school
and the men in manhood work.
There were 100000 men close
to starvation today and $4,000
multl-millionaires. 1t means that
these fabulous fortunes come
from labor.
He eloquently and earnestly
made an appeal to the Farmers
Union to unite with the Fedora.

Farmers Adjourn.

After three days and nights of
almost continuous session, the
Farmers State Union adjourned
Wednesday night. As most of
their meetings were in executive
session, the results of their labors
are unknown. The people of
Winfield gave them q cordial
reception and felt that it was
good for them to be here.
Despite the continuous frown of
the elements and downpour of
rain during their presence, it is
hoped that their stay in this pro-
gressiye town created favorable
impression and they departed
with pleasant memories of Winn-
field and its hospitable citizens.
They are wished a bon voyage
homeward.
