phors, but everybody will understand
what it means. We need more SINGER

common sense. We have had enough
posing, gallery playing, balderdash and
plain bullconning to last for a thou
sand years. Give us more plain men
who love peace and progress and mean
what they say.
That is another thing like about
Burton-he stands for peace. Here is
something of his on that line that is
worth quoting:
Nations it has been truly said, "are
now conquered not by armies, but by
IDEAS With the development of the hu-
man intellect, the increasing employment
in intellectual pursuits and the growth of
moral forces in every part of the world
war is becoming more and more a prac-
tice suitable only for barbarians. The
Goths, the Vandals, the Scythians and the
Huns have been swallowed up and fight
no longer. Even religion has ceased to be
cause for bloodshed. The day of uni
versal peace, therefore. white and not
crimson, is drawing near.
There is no beating Of tomtoms, no
appeal to prejudice, no calling forth
of the animal in man, about that. 1t
does not come from a demagogue nor
lingo. 1t is in keeping with the best
thought of the day. 1t rings true.

strongly intrenched political machine.
the American people, and especially
those Of the president making state of
Ohio, love brains.
We have heard much Of the student
in politics, but if the term had never
been invented it would have to be
coined to describe Burton. With him
the burning of midnight Oil is not
virtue, but. a habit. He is the sort of
man who never speaks until he gains
all possible information on his subject.
In house debates he is sometimes
worsted by the shifty politicians and
rough and tumble wits, but Burton's
strength comes from the fact that the
other members have implicit faith in
his knowledge and honesty
No Pretender and Loves Peace.
Burton is incapable of posing. He
cannot act part for his own admira-
ton. He cannot pretend, has no fads
and cannot seem to like man when
he does not or to be amused when he is
lot. he Is q SAuple, undSSuAH1nS, I'LL
pretentious, studious, peace loving,
progressive man who is touched by the
humanities. who must go to the front
by force of unadorned merit If at all.
Burton is so sincere he cannot even
pretend to believe in his party when
he does not believe in it. For my sim
pie self must confess that he is of a
type that makes infinite appeal to me.
There is no fustian, swashbuckling,
grand stand playing about him. Bar
mum once said that the American peo-
pie like to be humbugged, and maybe
they do, but do not believe it., The
coming to the front Of man like Bur.
! ton proves that they Ike real states.

MY life. He has brains and honesty.
He knows things. He is Of the type
that really loves his country and hui
mainly. He will not pose before the
crowd He will not play the toady to
gain favor. He has courage without
buster and is a reformer without
beingsa common scold or blatherskite
He is a balanced, level headed sort.
He may appear cold, because he is not
gushy, but he does not lack sentiment
or emotion, as was shown when ac-
knowledging his election to the SEN
ate. We should have more of his kind
in politics. Ohio has had many great
senators, but if properly size up the
man Theodore e. Burton will measure
with the best Of them.
Frank and Independent.
Here are three characteristic Incl
dents that reveal something of Bur
toms quality:
When first elected to congress in
1888 he was a warm friend of William
mckinley, doing some special research
work for the then chairman of the
ways and means committee. In 1892,
however, Mr.. Burton advised McKin-
LEY not to run for president, as it was
| a Democratic year. Il prediction that
proved true For this frank advice he
said the future president never entire
lily forgaye him.
The second incident occurred after
Burton had been in congress Eeveral
years. He became Disguised with po-
litics and quietly said to some Of his
friends that he intended to retire from
public life. When Cleveland heard of
that there was a popular wave. Bur
ton had always received large indie
pendent vote, but now there was a

Lives Much With Books.

In appearance Burton is nearly six
feet tall, wears clothes that do not fit
too well, has close cropped gray mus
tache, a contemplative gray eye, a
high forehead, sparse brown hair, a.
grave almost taciturn demeanor and
a smile that is rare enough to be ap-
preciated when it comes. He lives
much with books, having all his rooms
at Washington filled with them, even
to the gas range and pantry shelves in
the kitchen. He sometimes drives in
leisure hours are usually devoted to
reading French literature and English
poetry. He takes an occasional trip to
Europe, which he spends in studying
the rivers and harbors of the old world
Outside of his life of Sherman, Sena-

cial panics which is an authority.

FEDERATION WILL
UPHOLD GOMPERS
Recommends Contempt Case Be
Carried To Supreme Court.
CARRY INJUNCTION HIGHER
Denial OF Jury Trial to the Three
Leaders Is Denounced by
Executive Councils
Report.

Toronto, Ont, Nov. 10.-If President
Samuel Gompers, Vice-President John
Mitchell and Secretary Frank Nor
rison of the American Federation OF
Labor eventually have to serve Jail
sentences for contempt of court it will
not be due to lack of support from
trades unionists.
The executive council of the fedora
ton recommended to the annual con-
ventiOn that an appeal be taken to the
United States supreme court, both in
the Bucks Stove & Range Company's
injunction case and in the contempt
proceedings growing out of it. That
the convention will ratify the recon-
mendatiOn seems certain, and that the
three labor leaders and their fellow Of
ficers will be reelected for another
year is predicted.
A vigorous denunciation of the use
of labor injunctions and of the denial
of trial by jury was embodied in the
councils report.
Text of the Report.
The report presented By First Vice
President James Duncan of the Gran
lite Workers union of Quincy, Mass,
says:
I'VE recommend that an appeal be
taken from the decision rendered in
both the original injunction as well as
the contempt case growing out of it.
We cannot permit these decisions to
go unchallenged. They affect funda,
mental rights, and either the courts
or congress must safeguard them.
Eve again enter our protest against
the application of the writ of in
| junction in labor disputes unless
where an injunction would lie if there
were no labor dispute).
I'VE hold that the ordinary use OF
! the injunction writ in contentious be,
tween workers and employees is an un,
warranted interference with the rights
and liberties of the workers and is in,
| tended and its influence used to in,
! timidate workers, especially when
they are engaged in struggle for
| improved working conditions. 1t is q
fact, however, that such injunctions
are issued"

TRAINMEN SEEK INCREASE
Labor Leaders Declare Threatened
Demands Involve Every Railroad
East of Chicago.

Chicago. Nov. 10.-What labor lead.
ers declare is the most far-reaching
step ever attempted in the history of
organized labor is the threatened de-
mand for uniform schedules and a
wage increase of about IL per cent.
by the conductors and trainmen on
railroads entering Chicago from the
east. At the same time, switchmen
and yardmen in this city numbering
5000, members of the Brotherhood OF
Railroad Trainmen. have asked for
five cents an hour increase.
Switchmen and yardmen of st. Paul
and Minneapolis have asked for six
cents increase.
Steps are being taken by locomotive
firemen on all roads west of Chicago
to have existing schedules opened and
are seeking an increase.
In Chicago railroad circles the
preliminary rumbles of the approach,
ing labor storm are heard with uni.
form Indifference and unconcern. No
official of any of the great trunk or
granger lines could be found who
would express himself as the least
pit fearful of the outcome of the pres
ent agitation. F
Practically every railroad man, in
denying that there was any truth In
the reported wage demands, insisted
that the roads were not in condition
to pay out more money than at
present.
