The Labor Vote.

Before the American Federation
of Labor Samuel GomperS. its pres
ident, has maintained that not less
than 100000 labor votes were cast
for the Democratic party in 1908
because of the injunction abuse
in the federal courts. What degree
of psychological influence the in
junction question really exercised
upon the last election it would be
hard to determine. But there can
be no doubt that Mr.. Gompers with
all his intelligence and his assumed
knowledge of the sentiments of
those whom he ably represents, has
been led into a strange exaggera-
ton as to the vote of organized la
Dor for the national Democratic
ticket. His assertion is in fragrant
contradiction with the fact that in
the great centres of industry where
the Federation of Labor has its
strongest organization in Penn
sylvania, New York, Massachusetts,,
and other states enormous MAORI
ties were given for the Republican
candidates. Had the organized
workingmen in these states support
ed the cause which the Federation
of Labor espoused the result would
have been quite different.
On the other hand, in the south
ern states, where the Democrats
achieved their greatest success, the
influence and votes of the Fedora
ton of Labor are comparatively
small. The simple truth is thai
the great majority of the working
. men of the country, organized anC
; unorganized, still cling to the super
stitious belief in the miraculou
power of the tariff to maintain
their WAGES while despoiling then
:, with grievous protective taxes upol
the necessarles and comforts o
, their families.-Quincy Herald.

Down Into the Dust.

Is it worth while that we jeer at a
brother
Bearing his load on the rough
road of life?
Is it worth while that we jeer at
each other
In the blackness of heart that
we war to the knife?
God pity us all in our pitiful
strife.
God pity us all as we jostle each
other;
God pardon us all for the triumph
we feel
When a fellow goes down meath his
load on the heather,
Pierced to the heart; words keen
er than steel,
And mightier far for woe or for
veal.
Were it not we'll, iii this brief little
journey,
On over the isthmus, down into
the tide,
We give him a fish instead of a
serpent,

O'BR|ENS ATTORNEY
 COMES ID PHOENIX
Conjecture Regarding the Line of De-
 fense.

Judge s. w. Purcell of Tucson, attor- ney for F. J. O'Brien, the broker who is charged with embezzlement. arrived in the city yesterday from Los Angeles, where he was at the time of the ar rest of O'Brien last Monday A tele- gram was sent him at that time, but he was unable to leave immediately for Phoenix. In the meantime the ar raignment was continued from day to day at the request of the defendant rending the arrival of his attorney.
 That event will take place before Justice Parker today. What the course of the defense will be is a matter of conjecture, but 1t is assumed that the jurisdiction of the courts of this coun- ty will be attacked on the ground that since O'Brien was resident of Tucson at the time of the alleged crime and vas there all the time, the offense, if any. was committed in Pima county.
 Il is uncertain if this line of action should be decided upon by the defense, whether it will be begun at the time of the arraignment or whether 1t will be delayed until the preliminary exam ination. which will probably be set for tprlorrow.
 The defendant has made no effort to secure hail. as it was understood that he would make no move until after consulting with his attorney.
 Mir. Purcell spent the greater part of yesterday afternoon with his client.
