IS NOT QUALIFIED TO TALK
ON LABOR.

ing to occupy him but TO talk; he lives
in an age he does not understand"
said Samuel Gompers, president Of the
American Federation of Labor, in a
statement last night, in reply to DR..
Eliots criticism of trade unionism at
Kenyon college, Ohio.
Since the time DR.. Eliot was mem
tally capable OF appreciating indus

velopment has gone on" continued
Mr.. Gompers. 1.-THE concentration Of
industry in which combinations, cor
porate conventions and trusts have
developed, have all escaped him In so
far as concerns their influence upon
the individuality of the workers. The
division, sub division and SPECIALIZE
ton of labor has rendered the work
ers absolutely helpless individually,
and it is only by association in trade
unions and declarations that the toilers
can obtain some of the rights which,
as individuals, they are totallw unable
to maintain.
"The organizations of labor OF today
are the best defenders of the rights

CROKER COMES HOME

Croker is hurrying to New York city
on the fastest trans Atlantic steam
ship afloat to come to the aid Of his
personal friend and business assoc
ciate. Charles w. Morse. for the sec
ond time within year
Morse sent for Croker immediately
after he was sent back to the Tombs
after the United States circuit court
Of appeals confirmed his conviction
and sentence by the United States
criminal courts a few weeks ago.
This appeal to Croker was based
on the fact that II was the former
Tammany chief and partner OF the
Ice king who brought about his re-
lease on bail after his conviction on
Nov last year.
The last appeal sent to Croker by
Morse was 80 strong II induced him
to sail for America before the election
and leave himself open to rhe charge
that he returned to resume an .ac-
tive interest In the management of
Tammany.
Morse intends to make q determined
fight to have his case reviewed by the
United States supreme court. Croker.
Ii Is understood, win stand by him to
the end.

SUITS THREATENED
FOR FALSE ARREST
BUFFALO FLAX CASES MAY RE-
SUIT IN coMPLAiNANTs BEING
MADE DEFENDANTS IN ACTION
FOR DAMAGEs-cHANGE or
VENUE.

II statements credited to attorneys
representing the defendants in what is
known as the Buffalo fax cases, are
carried out. 1t Is possible that aotion
will soon be started for damages for
alleged false arrest and Imprisonment.
Jack Mathews and Lawrence Taylor,
employer and hired man, were last
week arrested at Buffalo, charged with
the theft of three loads OF wheat, the
property of Wheelock g. Wheelock OF
this city. Taylor was taken before
Justice RayelinE of Buffalo and his
case continued to Saturday. 1t is stat
ed that the matter has since been clear
ed up so far as he is concerned and
that 1t will be dismissed when called
for trial.
The case Of the state against Jack
Mathews was called before Justice III.
r. Miller this morning and changee
of venue was taken by the defense. the
case being sent to Judge Martin Ryan's
court.
According to the defendants the
whole affair is the result OF a mistake.
They claim that two loads of Aax were
sent to Buffalo one evening. The ele-
vator where they had been doing bust
ness was closed and rather than bring
the flax back to the farm, 1t is stated
that it was taken to another elevator
and sold in the name of the Fargo land
firm. This 1t Is claimed lead to the
complication. Developments in the ac-
ton will be watched with interest.

WHEN AMERICAN
GIRLS ARE VOTERS.

Mrs. Emmeline Parkhurst, the
great English suffragette leader,
now in America, says the follow
ing are among the things which
will happen when American wo-
men vote:
Women will be treated with
greater courtesy by men.
Women will find their influence
over men increased, because men
will have to consider them polit-
ical equals.
Many "enslaved wives" win hold
their heads up in defiance OF their
brutal husbands.
Mothers will be better fitted to
instruct their children In patriot
ism and good government
A boy will be ashamed Of
mother who cannot answer his
questions concerning politics.
We will have better laws to
govern morals and home life.

1t may not be generally known. but
the humble hen lis one OF the principal
wealth producers Of the northwest as

Waterloo, Iowa, in an estimate made
Sept. TO- places the total value OF eggs
and poultry produced in the United
States for this year at $3.50, 900.
while in the northwest alone the hen
and her kindred will contribute $780,

ton.
In Minnesota the poultry and egg
product is valued at $4,000, 600
this year. Iowa, however, is the larg-
est producer. There the lay of the

$39,50s.526. The North Dakota biddy
comes to the front with S21, 0O0,0 900, and

sin the hen can be forgiven for cack-
ling with some pride over a product

Business is Hardly Developed.
And as yet the poultry and egg
business in the northwest is only in its
infancy. There is very little organized
scientific effort to encourage the hen.
AS sort of side issue farmers pro-
duce poultry and eggs, but in only a
few instances is the poultry business
specialized.
The value Of the egg and poultry
product has steadily increased, how
ever, with the growth and development
Of the country until today in ST. Paul
the average cost of eggs to the con-
sumner throughout the year is 80 cents
a dozen, while poultry is comparatively
high.
