Daniel kissam Young, cf Philadel

''The American workingmcn are

In regard to the solution of the immi-

''No organization, is doing so much to

that through Working togethcr-differen

workingmen will call a universal peace

anxious that war be absolutely wiped

contended, and in proof he cited his
own experience and that of workers un-

throughout the country. lie said that
the workingman despises the minister

workingman because he is interested in
