Federation Convention.
DELEGATES TO TAKE PART
IN TEMPERANCE RALLY
John Mitchell and Treasurer

viii Discuss Liquor Question
at Sunday Meeting,

Toronto, ont, Nov l2.--Dnring the
five days convention of the American
Federatin of Labor in session, there
has been much suppressed speculation
as to the attitude il might take on the
question OF labor and the saloon.
When il was announced early in the
week that a temperance mass meeting
would be held Sunday under the aus
pices of the labor department of the
Presbyterian church. the delegates
representing the International union
Of the United Brewery Workmen, the
Hotel and Restaurant Employees alli-
ance and the Bartenders' Union of
America began TO canvass the city TO
ascertain whether the liquor question
would reach the floor Of the cOnven-
ton In tho event of an attack in
the convention the representatives OF
the liquor unions count on the sup
port of the Cigarmakers' International
Union OF America in whose delegation
is Samuel Gompers. president OF the
federation
Il is understood however, President
Gompcrs is anxioua to avoid "A debate
on the liquor question and he was in
strumental today IA bringing about a
between IRE l.. sullivan, rep
resenting the Bartenders union and
Rev. MIR. Stezle. Rev. Mr. Stei2le
gave Mr. Sullivan to understand that
his plans contemplate an attempt to
stop the holding of labor union meet
ings in back rooms of saloons.
President Gompers. il Is said, has
agreed to lend his support to a reso-
luton urging the erection of labor
temples and other places for holding
meetings
Sundays meeting will be addressed
by the Rev Mr.. Steizle. John Mitchell
and JChn B. Lennon treasurer OF the
federation. Mr. Lennon is understood
TO take the attitude that the use Of
liquor by workngmen affects the rate
of wages because it lowers the eff
cheney of the men: and Nh Mitchell
will discuss the contention that in
creased wages and shorter hours
mean added profits To the saloon.
President Gompers was called upon
This morning to discuss the status of
he contempt proceedings as a result
If which AIr. Gompers, John Mitchell
md Frank Morrison may go to Jail.
Mr.. Gompers said the question of an
appeal would be discussed at confer

Some Size TO Us.
What a New York Paper Says IN
Regard to South Dakota.

A New York paper in recent issue
has this to say of our great common
wealth: South Dakota is rectangu-
lar In shape and has an area of II $50
square miles. The state ranks twelfth
in size In the Union. 1t is larger by
one-fosrth than the combined area of
the New England states. The popu-
lation is not more than half million.
For seven consecutive years this state
has led all the others in production Of
wealth per capita, the state report for
1904 being sl43, 959,663 or, estimated
at 100000 population, S297. 81 for each
man, woman and child. Men Of the
east who have travelled west and To-
Gated in South Dakota, popularly
known as the '.Coyote State" either
on land purchased outright or upon
some OF the 100 acre farms granted as
homesteads by the government, say
that they have never repented of the
bargain. 1t has always proved bar
gain to the live man, whether he be
farmer, a business or q professional
man. Those who visit this midwest
ern state for pleasure go back to It
for profit, to till its fertile soil, to
raise livestock or to establish . busi-
ness that is as sure to grow as the
sun is to rise daily TO the meridian;
for its prosperous population are mon
ey makers and money spenders. In
short, the, South Dakota of today
with its thriving farms, its well built
cities, and towns and villages, its
banks, school and educational insti-
tutions is the ideal spot for . home
for those who wish TO thrive and
make money. The climate Is nearly
perfect and sickness Is hardly known.
1t has been truly said that South
Dakota is poor place for doctors
and landlords, for illness Is rarity
and every land owner owns SO much
land that he can afford to laugh at
landlords, for he is lord Of his own
manor. Farming pays. The farming
in South Dakota, so those tell US who
live there, pays better than in any
other state in the union. That Is q
broad statement but these men who
say SO are farmers from New England,
New York and other states, who have
farmed it all their lives, and who have
made more money, they say, with the
same effort in South Dakota in five
years than they could have made in
three times five years in any other
state.

A glance at the calendar for the
year 1909 shows that both Decora-

fall on Sunday this year, as does
also Philips second birthday ami

up, Guards, and at 'em'' An
Iowan, who wants to live in the
Land of Perpetual Bliss" but
does not want to leave Iowa, gives
sixteen reasons why the nine South
Dakota counties east of the river
and on the southern line should be
taken from us and annexed to
Iowa, making the Missouri instead
of the Sioux the western boundary
of that state.
Nothing doing-absolutely moth
ing. AS this Bogie Man claims,
South Dakota is too large, but
there's another way of adjusting
that. The western part of the
state, according to all the law max
ing bodies that ever convened down
at Pierre, have declared the west
ern and eastern sides dissimilar,
and that the same laws, at times,
are not applicable to both sections.
If the people of the state should
decide that We are too large, what
is more reasonable than that the
commonwealth should be split at
the river, and a new state created.
Philip has a fine site for the cxpi-
tol building.
Now, there's something, citizens,
to think about!
