Messrs Debs and Gompers, both pos
ing as the real and true friends of
labor, are, now engaged in firing
broadsides at each other, and in the
natural course of human events the
public ought to learn something to
its own advantage.
Debs accuses Gonpers of sitting
down at the feet OF the capitalists
and fraternizing with them. while at
the same time pretending to be fight
ing them in the interests of labor.
Gompers retorts that Debs never was
a real friend of labor, but is now pos
ing as a martyr. He also mysterious
ly hints that somebody besides the
Socialists is paying for Debs Red
Special"
This is all because Gompers is sup
porting the Bryan ticket and Debs
sees no hopes for labor in such a
course.
AS a matter of fact neither one Of
these men cor rolls the labor vote, an
the pretense they make Of doing so
SHOWS how untitled they are to be
champions of the cause. No labor
leader has a right to assume that he
controls, or is able to deliver the lab
or vote; and if Mr.. Gompers has mad
any deal with Mr.. Bryan to this eff
feet he is likely to be very greatly
disappointed.
The chances are about ten to one
ed this year, as they always have
been, according to the political pre-
fei ences OF the citizens of the coun-
try. both in and out of the labor rank
v;crion and principle are not going to
deliver their votes to another nomine
at the behest of any socalled labor
leader. If workingman believes tina
i. is for his best interest, for his pros
perity and well-being, to vote the Re-
publican ticket he is going to do SO,
no matter what finespun political sch
emes Mr.. Gompers and Mr.. Debs may
have under their hats.
This is Il matter not to be settled
b, political leaders to further their
own political schemes, but 1t is some
thing which vitality and personally
concerns every man. If a man think
his business or his trade, or his en-
oloyment, is going to be bettered by
continuance of Republican policies
he IS going to vote that way, this yea
just as he has in other years. The
blne of the workingman is the labor
leader who at the same time aspires

Government Prosecutor Seeks To
Force C. T. Ceilings to Disclose
Business Correspondence.

New York, Sept. 10-Frank b. KEEL

who is prosecuting the governments
suit against thesStandard Oil compan
of New Jersey, resorted to the Unit
ed States circuit court today to force
the production of letters he had pre-
viously demanded from c. I. Ceilings
second vice president of the Standard
Oil company of Kentucky. The gov
ernment's lawyer obtained from Judg
Ward a subpoena offering MIR. Colline
to produce the missing letters. This
was served on the Standard officials
as he left the witness stand where he
had been testifying before Special
Examiner Franklin Ferriss.
The letters demanded by the gov
were written by NJ. Maxon, a Stand
ard agent, to the late w. c. Elliot.
formerly a stenographer in MIR. Col
liugs' Cincinnati office. They dealt
with a.'eged sums which the govern
ment charged were paid by The stand

agents for The purpose of ouJ &c in
formation as to competitors ..s',men
This inform;. tion, in some Eases. tn ;
government alleges, was DO va t frtn
railroad employees, oii inspectors and
others. This, however, is denied by
the Standard Oil company.
On being served with the subpoena
Mr.. Ceilings said he would not say
whether the letters would be produce
or not Until he had chance to con-
fer with counsel. The court order
states that the letters must be pro-
duced In court Monday morning.

KANSAS CITY LIFTS LID.
Approaching Retirement of Strict
Censor and Coming Of New Jury
Inspire Foes of Sunday Clos
ina to Bold Move.

Kansas City, Mo-, Sept. 6.-Boldly
and openly this city today threw off
all restraint and defied the Sunday
closing laws which have called 1t dur
ing twelve months.
Tonight all the theaterS were crow
ed; billiards and pool were being pla.
ed on hundreds of tables, cigars and
effort at secrecy; barber-shops were
| open, and many saloons did roaring
business through their side doors.
It is clear from the behavior OF the
citizens that they do not regret the a
parent ending of the blue regime,
but are 81 ing whole-hearted support
to the saloon men and others who
seek to profit by the approaching re-
tirement OF Criminal Judge Wallace,
who. single-handed, has held down
the lid for about year and admins
tered the law with answering vigor.
Judge Wallace will reenter private
life on Nov 8, and the foes of the
blue laws feel that his time is now
" SuOlt " It'll "
anything drastic against law breakers
Besides new grand jury will be sun
moned this week, and the people fran
y express the view that henceforth
dict violators of the closing enact
ments. so great has been the public
upheavals against them.
Since Judge Wallace started his
Sunday crusade more than 5000 in
dictments have been returned by his
perpetual grand jury, OF this num-
Der about 800 have been dismissed
Tor want OF evidence, few convict
ions have been made and more than
1000 cases are on the Criminal Court
locket. These probably will be dis
missed as soon as the judge retires.
The city was wide open all day.
Those who had missed their Saturday
night shave got shaved today; those
who wanted to smoke obtained the
reedful without running the risk of
occasioning an Indictment for the ac-
commodating cigar dealer; pool and
billiard players were once more in
their element. Even members of the
various theatrical companies seemed
more Il, ease and went through their
work with vim which for months
has teen missing at Sundaypreforma
ces.
IL WAS even possible to buy a loaf
of bread and piece of meat, some
thing which no one has been able
to do since Judge Wallace decreed
that the selling of groceries and food
stuffs on the Sabbath was an offense
against the laws of the state.

Shaw Shows Fallacy of Deposit
Guarantee.

Spring field, ILL.,, Sept. 9-The Re-
pubiicans of Illinois met here today i;
state convention and nominated four
university trustees, selected presiden-
tiai electors and adopted platform.
Tue features of the convention wer
speeches by former Secretary of the
Treasury Shaw and Speaker Cannon.
Mr.. Shaw said that Mr.. Bryan pro-
missed in his platforms the creation
of fund for the relief of deposit
tors in failed and failing institutions
national and state. He continued.
"A fund for the relief of depositors,
to be of any value must be available
when The panic is at it's height.
Those in charge of such a fund woul,

Speaker Cannon urged that all diff
ferences be forgotten and that there
lie unity and harmony all along the
line and that everybody work for the
success or the state ana national tic
kets.
He also made a strong defense of
the work of the courts and of his
course in the disposition of legisla-
ton. He closed as follows:
II my constituents send me back
