DR. COOK GIVEN A CORDIAL
WELCOME.

AS the first man who has stood up
on the apex OF the world, DR.. Cook
was given great demonstration of
confidence and consideration, Tuesday
at New York. He was saluted by a
flotilla on the waters, given the
honor OF a triumphal journey through
the city and iionized everywhere
The great and the small, the mag
nate and the humble citizen alike,
stroye TO do him honor. DR.. Cook
announced that he had brought the
proofs with him that would convince
the scientific world OF the Legitimacy
OF his claims. HIS statement to the
world is as follows.
After one OF the most delightful
trips OF my life across the Atlantis

the shores OF my native land. | have
come from the pole. 1 nave brought
my story and my data with me. The
public already has a tangible and
specific record of that trip. In a very
short time the narrative, with all the
observations, will be published and
placed before the world for examina-
ton.
1T is as easy for you as for me to
understand why I cannot, on the i'm

DECLARES WAR
Provincial Workingmen's
Association Will Fight
American Unions

Halifax. N. s., Sept. 23-The Prov
incial Workingmen's association has
declared war on American labor un-
ions and in a series OF scathing reso-
lutoins adopted today call upon all Ia
Dor organizations within the dominion
No work for Canada and Canadians
only.
The resolutions announce that the
council "views with alarm" the effort
of the American labor organizations
to"usurp the inallenable rights and
privileges of Canadian organizations
to manage Canadian industrial af-
fairs
The resolutions then recite: Ameri'
can unions. while claiming to be in
ternational in character. have refused
to become members of international
congresses, giving the vague excuse
that European unions are not suited
to American ideas. The consequences
are that the law abiding workers of
Canada are likely to become involv-
ed in hunger, misery, rioting, blood
shed and murder If the American un-
ions are permitted 10 hold sway In
the Dominion. This course, If persist
ed in Is sure in the end in the spoila-
ton of Canadian business interests
for the benefit of the United States.
Resolved, that this grand council!
immed lately join the Canadian Feder-
alton of Labor and use all of Its ef-
forts to have all workingmen and
women in Canada do the same thing
so that we may present a solid front
to the common eaemy and maintain
our independence, showing the world
that Canadian workingmen are Sec
ond to none in patriotism and that
cur national cry shall be Canada for
Canadians under the good old union
jack"
The cause of the bitterness shown
at the convention against the Ameri-
cans Is traceable directly to the recent
labor troubles at Glace Bay, where
the miners affiliated with the Mine
Workers of America, went out while
the Dominion union men refused to
strike.

GOVERNOR JOHN A. JOHNSON

Governor Johnson passed away.
Wednesday mornings at Rochester,
Minnesota. The morning papers an
nouncing that he had but an nour
or two to live were Quickly followed
by despatch announcing his death, at
3:25 a. m. He was fine
looking man, tall, dtgnified, only
moderately graceful on the platform,
interesting and forceful in the mes
sage that he brought to us but not
very scientific as TO its arrangements,
but with all an impressive character
The fact that from the lowly walks
of life he arose to be thrice elected
Governor or his state, and, that, too
when he was a Democrat and his
state was normally sticngly Republic
can was indicative that he was no
ordinary man. Governo: Johnson was
also a candidate for the Democratic
nomination for President at the last
fall National convention held at Den
yer and had 1t not been for the over
shadowing influence of MIR. Bryan he
would most probably have been the
choice of the Democracy. Had that
happened he would likely have car
ried Minnesota and some other States
which Mr.. Bryan lost, possibly
Missouri and Indiana, and made the
result much more doubtful. Governor
johnson was vote-getter. Governor
johnson also has been much in mind
as a possible presidential factor for
1912. He had something about him OF
the likable, the genial, the democratic
that made him strong candidate
MI. Bryan has also these pecularities
but with him goes a kind of author
itative assumption which nobody is
presumed TO question
The while country will mourn the
early death of Governor Johnson for
he had become a national character
and had he lived would likely been
pushed by his friends for the Demo-
cratic nomination in 1912.
Governor johnson leaves a wife but
TO children. He seems to be the be-
ginning and end OF his family.
