trlous' would soon be reduced to rate
of wages and conditions of living
which the .shiftless' and incompetent
are willing to accept. This is because
labor is open to the law of supply and
demand, which by John Ruskin is bet
ter defined as the law of necessity and
opportunity Labor in competition il
war; ard war is hell This makes it
evident to the 'Shiftless, incompetent,
able ard Industrious that all will be
reduced to the lowest possible condi-
tens of living and that able and in
dustlious' men who have wives and
children would be compelled to accept
a standard CT wages and conditions
which are set by 'shiftless' and in
competent men; hence you have con-
dition that compels the 'shiftless and
incompetent able and Industrious
workmen to unite in labor union to
save all from the evils Of competition
among men who must sell their labor.
The union sets the scale of wages,
which is the lowest rate at which the
poorest labor in any occupation is
bought or sold, thereby making con-
dition by which an able and industri-
GUS workman can give his family and
wife tolerable living and at the same
time be protected from the evils which
follow competition in the labor market
1T is a law of life that men of one
occupation or calling seldom improve
any calling but their own. This will
be found true of labor College presi-
dents and others have the weakness of
thinking that they know another mans
business better than he Qhe other mani
knows it himself, but the truth is that
all advance that has been made for the
working masses has been accomplished
by labor unions that have fought to
protect their members from the very
evils which DIR. Wilson accuses them
of fostering
"As a workman who has been stu
dent of the problem Of labor from the
standpoint of conditions and not theO-
ries, L feel that DIR. Wilson insulted
every decent wage Garner in this coun-
try. when he said that our efforts to
improve ourselves have resulted in pro-
ducing improbable servants and in
rewarding the 'shiftless and incompe-
tent at the expense Of the able and in
dustrious.'
"For the above reasons and many
other reasons that are incident to and
grew out Of the above reasons the
State Federation of Labor has con-
demned the candidacy Of DR.. Wilson
and requests all union men to do all
they can to prevent his nomination"

THE QUESTION.

When a man applies for a position
carrying responsibility with it, says
the Gazette, the first question asked
him is: "What experience have you
had?"
8 That is the question that the con-
sentative people in the state of New
Jersey are asking Thomas Wo odrow
Wilson today.
He has applied for the position of
governor, and the people want to
know what experience he has had
along the line of work that he will be
expected to perform if he should be
elected.
Mr.. Wilson must answer, of course,
that he has had none. If he has taken
an interest in the executive and adj.
ministrative affairs of New Jersey, it
has been in the quiet of his study,
and not in the field of governmental
activity.
He has done nothing to prove that
he Possesses executive ability, even in
small degree.
AS president of Princeton univer.
sity he has succeeded in destroying
the harmony that existed for years
among the trustees of that institu-
ton.
And it doesn't appear that the uni.
versity has profited by the actions oil
President Wilson.
Executing the business OF state is
duty that calls for sound Judgment.
courage and level head.
~ Ability to talk we'll in public and to
overload the air with fine English, is
not qualification for the Office of gov.
ernor of state.
Theories sometimes charm the ear,
but the color usually comes out in the
wash.
Mr.. Wilson has admitted to the peo.
pie that he doesn't know much abou,
some of the vital issues in which they
are interested, but he says that he il
willing to learn.
The voters of New Jersey cannot af
ford to send Mr.. Wilson to school.

MUST DEBATE
WITH RECORD.
State Chairman Briggs Says
Wilson Must Do So Or
Withdraw Challenge.

During his campaign last week DR..
Woodrow Wilson, the Democratic can
didate, declared himself ready to de-
bate political questions with any poll
tician in the state. On the following
day George L. Record of Jersey City,
Republican candidate for congress-, &C.
cepted the challenge.
When Mr.. Records letter was pub
lished DR.. Wilson referred the matter
to State Chairman James X. Nugent,
who has been with him on his tour in
south Jersey. Nugent Immediately de-
clared that he had communicated with
the Republican chairman, Senator
Briggs, ito ascertain officially if Mr..
Record has been or will be designated
by the Republican state committee and
the Republican candidate as their rep
resentative and spokesman. II so 1
am authorized by Mr.. Wilson to ar
range with Chairman Briggs for such
joint meeting or meetings, as may be
agreed upon"
To this letter Chairman Briggs sent
this reply:
Your letter of the It'll instant was re-
ceived by me this morning. I have no
KNOWLEDGE of the details of the challenge
of Di. y. llson except what l have seen In
the papers, AS remember 1t, DR.. Wilson
made public challenge. expressing him.
self as follows:
II welcome any politician in the state
to debate upon the public platform upon
any public question:
also learn from the newspapers that
George L. Record has also accepted the
challenge. and I think there is no one in
the state who will claim that Mr.. Record
does not qualify under the conditions laid
down therein.
Assuming the newspaper reports to be
correct, 1t would seem that Mr.. Wilson
should either withdraw his challenge or
be willing to debate with Mr.. Record or
any other man prominent in the politics
Of the state who may accept It.
This. In my opinion would be better and
more straightforward than to attempt to
escape the consequences of somewhat
rash remark by asking the Republican
state committee to limit its significance.
Yours very truly,
FRANK o. BRIGGS,
Chairman Republican State Committee.
Mr.. Record had this to say of the
way his acceptance Of the Wilson
challenge had been received:
"The great DR.. Wilson. who is to lift
the politics of New Jersey to a new
and higher plane, at the first test has
gone down to the Jim Nugent plane
and commences to dodge and petit
fog. This is plain dodge and
will so be construed by the public
DR.. Wilson had a perfect right to put
up challenge to the state committee
that they put forward Mr.. Lewis Or
any accredited representative. He
chose instead to challenge any politi.
clan in New Jersey upon any public
question. The challenge was worthy
Of DR.. Wilson as the public have hith-
erto looked upon him. The dodge will
come as a shock to DIR. Wilson's ad
mirers and il persisted in will destroy
whatever chance Of election he pre-
viously had"

FRITZ SCHffF IN
HUFF QUITS STAGE
Deserts Company in Detroit
When Her Understudy Makes
a Decided Hit
[ Special Dispatch 10 The Call

DETROIT. Mich. March 3.-Fritzi
Scheff deserted her company, The
Prima Donna" here last night and it
is believed in theatrical circles that
she has left the stage for good. She
took a midnight train for New York.
At the end of the first act Tuesday
Nine. Scheff tainted, or pretended TO.
Her understudy, Miss Alleen Hodgson,
took her part and made a big hit. Last
night Nine. Scheff appeared at the the
ater ready to go on when the curtain
rose, but she hastily left again within
a few minutes. Her action was ex-
planned when it was announced from
the stage when the play was about half
completed that Miss Hodgson had been
so well received by the audience that
she would be continued in the leading
role throughout the Detroit engage
ment. This was taken to mean that
the management was tired of Nine.
Schef's erratic tactics and intended to
give Miss Hodgson the leading role
permanently.
Jealousy of her understudy is be-
lieved TO have prompted Nine. Scheff's
action. Also, she is said TO have dis
agreed with the mana cement over the
matter of her salary.
There was no announcement made by
Nine Schef herself as TO her reason
for breaking off in the middle of her
engagement here. Her manager, n.
Roth. stated last night that she would
resume her leading part in The Prima
Donna at Cleveland next week and
that there was no ground for the report
that she had left the company here in
a fit OF temper.

.fNJOINS COMMERCE
COMMISSION ORDER
Grain Elevator Permitted to Con-
tinue Receiving Payment for
Transit Transfers

KANSAS CITY, March 3.-The inter
state commerce commission was per-
manently enjoined from enforcing an
order prohibiting railroads and other
carriers from allowing compensation
to owners and operators of elevators
for elevation and transfer of grain in
transit. in decision filed in the
United States circuit court here today.
The decision was written by Judge
Sanborn, and was concurred IN by
Judges Hook and Adams.
The decision says that "the order of
the interstate commerce commission
which prohibits the allowances or pay
ment by carriers of all compensation
to owners and operators of elevators
for the elevation and transfer OF grain
in transit is beyond the delegated
power of the commission
The injunction suit was filed in st.
Louis by the Peavey elevator COM
pany, which was supported in its petit
tion by the boards of trade Of Kansas
City, Omaha and other cities in the
middle west.
The interstate commerce commission
issued the order on the theory that
such action amounted to a rebate.

REMARKABLE RECORD MADE
BY COOPER in MINNEAPOLIS

The remarkable success that has at
tended l.. T. Cooper during the past
year has not been confined to any one
locality, but is so widespread that the
young man is now well known figure
in most of the leading cities of the
country.
Mr.. Cooper believes that the stomach
is the foundation for most i'll health.
and claims that his preparation. by reg
ulating the stomach, is true specific
for most diseases. The following ex-
tract from the. Tribune OF Minnea polls
gives an idea of the surprising num-
Der of people who are accepting Coop
er's theory. The article was one of
many that appeared during Cooper's
stay in Minneapolis, and is as follows:
THE sale of Cooper's preparation is
now phenomenal in this city. and an
estimate made today seems to indicate
beyond all doubt that it will equal the
large igures reported from Pittsburg
during the 30 days Mr.. Cooper spent in
that city.
During the past % days Mr. Cooper
has been in Minneapolis, the sale OF
his preparation has averaged about
1000 bottles day. When the amount
of medicine disposed of throughout the
state is added to this, the amount will
be doubled Therefore the young man
has sold in % days IS, 600 bottles of
his medicine in the state of Minnesota
alone which is truly remarkable
record.

WILL INVESTIGATE THE
SALE OF OLEOMARGARINE
Federal Judge Lands of Chicago
Orders Inquiry

CHICAGO, March 3.---Federal investi-
cation of the oleomargarine industry
here was ordered by. Judge Landis in
the. United States district court this af-
ternoon after the court had listened to
the testimony of three men who had
pleaded guilty to coloring oleomargar-
inc. The name of William j. Morley,
congressman from the sixth Illinois
district, figured in the hearing.
Testimony was given today by
Samuel Driesbach, Daniel Bortz and
William Broadwell, dealers in oleomar-
garine. Brosdwell was sentenced to
six years in the federal prison at Fort
Leavenworth and fined $4,000 by
Judge Lands on Monday, but after
hearing the story of the three men the
court directed United States Marshal
Hoy not to execute the sentence until
further notice. The sentence of Dries
bach and Bortz was deferred.
Broadwell told of purchasing the
white oleomargarine from manufactur-
ers who, he said, furnished him with
the coioring, and of selling the product
to restaurants, hospitals and hotels.
More than half the total output of the
oleomargarine factories in Chicago is
sold to '''moonshiners.' according to the
testimony of Broadwell.
