The movement in America to re-

An interesting politico-labor fight
is promised this year if Gompers and
the A. F, of L. leaders take q, hand
in the congressional elections, as they
did in the presidential campaign of
1908. A National Labor Alliance"
has been formed by John w. Hayes,
a former influential official in the
knights of Labor, and a number Of
other prominent influential individ-
uals who oppose A. F. of l.. 'aggres-
sion" Gomners has intimated that
he will fight Uncle joe Cannon,
Dalzell, Payne and other hostile
statesmen in the coming congressional
campaign. The Labor alliance" pro-
moters announce that they will sup
port the aforesaid statesmen and send
labor speakers into the various dis
tricts to show the voting kings what
really fine lot of patriots Cannon,
Dalzell & Co: are. It Is believed that
by confusing the issue it will be diff
ficult for the average voter to decide
who is a friend, or an enemy.
High cost of living is responsible
for the sprouting of local movements
among the organized workers from
New York to Seattle to estab lish CO.
operative enterprises. In the smaller
towns centrally located stores are be-
ing promoted. In the large cities
warehouses with branch distributing
stores are favored. In several places
cooperative farming is being intro
duced as an auxiliary of the stores.
Consid erable capital Is being accumu-
lated to develop these enterprises.

FUTURE HOLDS MUCH IN
STORE FOR UNION MEN

04VSGs w ON4VN MEN
Says Samuel Gompers in the
April American Federationist:
1t is an indisputable fact that
on the whole the state of labor
organization in this country at the
present time is far better than
even it's friends would have ven
tured to prophesy Immediately
after the panic of October, 1907.
BY the press and the public in
general, and even by many. well
wishers Of trade unionism, the
assumption was then. made that
for a period, to be determined by
the duration of the ensuing in
dustrial depression, labor was
doomed to disheartening losses
through disorganization, lowered
wages, and long continued unem-
ployment.
1t is true, months of idleness
came to many men in certain call
lngs, but, whatever the causes of
the crisis and whether or not it
was mostly a fnanciers' panic
only, the country has now entirely
recovered from it's injurious ef-
fects.
But neither Of the other two
results feared for labor was real
lied to any serious extent. The
local unions that were disbanded
were so few in number that the
average fuctuation in the total
union forces year by year was
only slightly exceeded. Not one
national or international union
passed out Of existence.
AS for wages, declaration was
made by the American Fedora
ton Of Labor, at once upon the
occurrence of the panic. that
every possible effort would be
made to oppose any attempt by
employers to make the wageearn-
ers bear the cost of the depres-
sion through a reduction of their
wages. This attitude of trade
unions gave pause even to the
leaders of finance and great in
dustrial enterprises. They were
convinced that if they set out to
cut down wage-rates they would
bring upon themselves serious in
dustrial contests, in addition to
the other difficulties they were
facing. In the case of the rail-
roads in particular, the managers
admitted publicly that they could
not attempt to lower their wage
schedules.
In all its phases the policy of
the American Federation of Labor
in the respect just mentioned was
justified by the outcome. The
country has recovered from it's
financial setback, and the great
body of the wage-earners are to.
day in position to work for ad.
vances in their movement onward
from the stage they had previous
ly gained, instead Of fighting tc
recover lost ground, as would
have been the case had they beer
obliged to accept reductions il
wages and extensions of the work
day.

ney l.. Brock, president of the Board
of Commerce while in New York City
at 10 o'clock this morning touched

and people, Col. Sidney Suggs. editor
of The Daily Ardmoreite at Ardmore,

large attendance of stock men who
are ready to make their shipments to

BELIEVED THAT OTHER VICTIMS
OF LOS ANGELES EXPLOSION
WE'RE CONSUMED BY FIRE.
POLICE SUSPECT FIVE MEN
Officers Think That Same Men Who
Caused Explosion In Times Building,
Also Placed Time Bomb at Zeehan-
deIaar Home.

Los Angeles, Cal, oct. 3.-lt is
doubted if the bodies OF any more OF
the victims of the explosion Saturday
in the Times building will be recover
ed.
1t is believed they were consumed
by the flames.
But five bodies have been recovered
from the ruins.
The police believe that the five men
seen about the premises were directly
concerned in placing the bomb that
wrecked the building and in construct
ing the time-bomb found under the
Zeehandelaar home and the inferna
machine found at the residence o.
General Otis, owner of the Times.
The city has offered a reward O
$4,000 for the arrest of the perpetra
tors. This has been increased by To-
cal newspapers and labor organiza-
tions, whose leaders have announced a
determination to assist In the search
for the criminals, to slS,500.
To assist in running down the
dynamiters, the city council today au'
thorized the appointment OF forty ad'
ditional patrolmen, one sergeant and
one lieutenant.
The reward will probably be $40,
600 for each dynamiter.
Seventeen men are now In jail sus'
pected of the crime.
The best clue, so far, is from the
Giant Powder company in San Fran
cisco saying that three men recently
purchased there five hundred pounds
Of explosives, similar to that found IN
the Internal machine at the Zeehan
deaar residence.

Judge Galt's court was Il busy place
this morning, a number of violaters
were up before "hizzoner" charged
with nearly every crime in the cate
CORY. The first case was that of one
Bartee, negro barber, who was
charged with disturbing the peace and
with assault. The evidence showed
that Bartee was under the influence
of whiskey and differed with VIII
Totten another barber who is employ
ed in the same shop, after a few
words Bartee produced his trusty
'razzer" and began to carve on his
victim. Totten was slashed across the
neck and face, but was not seriously
injured. Bartee was fined $500 and
unless he is able to produce that
amount of the coin of the realm, It
will be several days before he shaves
another man, instead he will assist
Commissioner Moore in making better
streets. Two more fighters and few
cases OF just ordinary drunks also
donated to the city In sums ranging
from the usual ten up to fifteen dol
lars.

MAY BE DIAMONDS.
Stone Found Near Center Will be Ana
lived at Beaumont.

Beaumont, Tex, Oct. "A civil en-
gineer employed on the Santa Fe rail
raod between Beaumont and Somerville
brought to the city Thursday some
stones which he obtained In deep
cut being made near Conroe, in Mont
gomery county. He has left the stones
with a local jeweler for analysis and
believes they will be found to be dia-
monds. They resemble very much a
rough diamond and respond satisfac-
torily to ordinary physical tests, such
as filing and cutting glass. This find
is additionally interesting In view OF
the wildcat operations now being car
ried on in Montgomery county by a
diamond mining expert from South AT
rica to develop the prospects for dia-
monds In that section.
