WHAT OF THE LABOR VOTE?

There are 32, 000, 900 workers in the
Uniter States, 100000 of whom are
outside the labor unions. Besides the
American Federation of Labor there
are fourteen trade unions-the knights
of Labor, the Western Federation of
Miners, the Stonemasons' International
union, the National Association of Let
ter Carriers, the Bricklayers' and Ma
sons union, the American Flint Glass
Workers union, the National Associa-
ton of Steam Filters, the Brotherhood
of Operative Plasterers, and the vari-
GUS brotherhoods of locomotive en-
gineers, locomotive firemen, railway
switchmen, trainmen, conductors and
clerks. These societies, which number
100000 or 100000 members, in the ag-
gregate, are not represented among the
labor politicians who are on the stump
in the present campaign.
The junta of politicians to whom |
have referred are the heads of the
American Federation of Labor. TIE

no even all males. Nor are they al!
residents of the United States. There
are women and children among that
number, and also aliens. Among the
many international unions leagued
with the Federation there are thou
sands of members who reside in Can
ada and elsewhere.
Over $4,000, 600 votes will be cast
for the various presidential candidates
Taft, Bryan, Debs, and the rest-ol
November 3, but is is estimated that
not more than 100000 or 100000 of
them will be cas- by members of the
American Federation of Labor. AND

is the combine which, for years past
has been holding its club over tn
heads of the leaders of both the grea
parties on the pretense that its wrath
would be fatal to the presidential and
the congressional candidates who refuse
to do its bidding.
Moreover, nine tenths of the Fedora

GRAZING CHARGES
REDUCED

Washington, Oct. 27.-Following out a
statement made a year ago at the meet
ing OF the National Wool Growers as
ISOLATION In Salt Lake City, Giffori
Plnchot, forester, and A. f. Potter, A.
slstant forester in charge of the branch
OF grazing in the United States forest
service, have just announced a reduc-
tion of 10 to Is per cent in the rates
for sheep grazing on the national for
ests of the West. This general reduc.
ton In the schedule of grazing rates
will take effect for the coming season
of 1909.
The changes in market conditions
which have made the sheep business
less profitable this past year, especially
the greatly reduced prices offered for
wool and the depreciation in the value
OF mutton, made the announcement of
great interest not only to those who are
interested In the sheep business but to
the men of every allied industry. In
1907, when the promises for a reduced
schedule were made it was with the un-
derstanding between the stockmen and
the forest service that the grazing rates
would not be changed for minor fuctua-
tons in the market which would natur-
ally occur from year to year, but would
only be made in case of radical or
unusual changes.
The new schedule does not effect tho
cases where the minimum charge of 5
cents per head has already been allowed
or a specially low rate has been fixed
on account of some local condition. In
most cases the revised fees will mean a
reduction of about one cent per head.
IN fixing the rates for grazing by
different kinds of stock, the local con.
d%itions, the effect of grazing by differ
emit kinds of stock on forest growth, the
demand for the use of range by owners
of different kinds of stock, the needs of
the homesteader, and the profits of the
business have been taken into consid-
Grafton.

PLAY WILL
Be ENJOYED

If indications count for anything the
performance of Arabian Nights" to be
given at the Hawaiian Opera House
under the auspices of the Kilohana Art
League on the 9th inst. will compare
very favorably with any of the work
of professionals that has been seen
here for some time Director Adams
was careful in the selection of the
cast and good results will follow his
judgment
The little comedy has been rehearsed
for several weeks past in the assembly
hall of the Art League and last night
| several persons were present to make
| observations. The cast includes Mrs.
McLennan, Miss McLain, Miss Arleigh,
Miss Ray Bell and Miss Waldron.
Major Potter will play lead and will
have male support from Messrs. Arnold
Jordan and Warren. The latter will
for what he does with the part of the
| brotheT-in-law he does well. Mrs.
! MCLennan, as the mOther-in-law with
an eye to the conventions, never ap-
peared to better advantage. She is
self possessed and as easy as one would
wish. Miss Bell who, it appears, has
played the part professionally, is very
good indeed and should make an i'm
preston when the play is regularly PUT
on the stage.
The play ~ replete with amusing
situations and the actors and actresses
make the best of them. There is
nothing omitted that will cause a
laugh and, apparently nothing over
drawn. The selection of the play was
a happy thought on the part of the
league and the audience cannot fail
to be satisfied

WASHINGTON, February 5--Before
the House Committee on Naval Affairs
Secretary Metcalf today asked for an
appropriation of $7S,77O,OOO for con-

The Secretary urged the necessity of
authorizing the construction of four
battleships to cost $3S,OOO,OOO for all
four scout cruisers at $1O,OOO,OOO. ten
destroyers at $S,5OO,OOO, four submar-
ines at 81 100000, one ammunition ship

NEW YORK, February An eX-

to secure Thaw's removal from Mat

the conference was not disclosed, but
it was learned on excellent authority
that Martin w. Littleton, VINO de-
Tended Thaw in the last trial mas
practically retired from the case.
1t was known that Llttleton's CON
nection with the case would cease
when the jury rendered its verdict, but
at the request of his associates he
consented to lend them his aid until
he started south on his vacation, al
though his personal wishes on the
status of the Thaw case following the
rendition of the verdict differed ma
terially from the views of the other
lawyers in the case. 1t is known Lit
Teton believes Thaw should be left in
the asylum for at least five months.

HAYES To URGE
EXCLUSION BILL
HEARING BEFORE FOREIGN AT
FAIRS COMMITTEE ON 18TH OF
FEBRUARY.

WASHINGTON, D. c., February A.
The Foreign Affairs Committee has
agreed with Representative Hayes that
hearings on the Japanese question win
begin February 18th. The Hayes ex-
cusion bill will be the motive of these
discussions, and the Santa Clara Con-
gresham has fortified himself with a
mass of facts and figures which he
hopes will carry conviction to the COM
mitteemen. The subject will be heard
by subcommittee, consisting of Per-
kins of New York, Denbick of Michi-
gan, Fassett of New York, Howard of
Georgia and Lamar of Florida.
These members are pretty evenly di-
vided in sentiment on the subject OF
Japanese exclusion, and Hayes feels
that he will have fair hearing. Nc
Kinlay and Kahn will share with Hay
es the burden of representing the Pa
ciftc Coast delegation in this matter,
for all the Coast States are united in
opposing Oriental immigration, and at
a conference, which was attended by
all the members except one or two it
was agreed that Kahn, Hayes and Nc
Kinlay should appear before the COM
mittee on behalf of the delegation from
all the Pacific Coast States. It is in
tended that another meeting shall be
held to discuss this and other matters,
sucn as supporting the measure for
promotion of the Seattle exposition.
