Farmers To Aid
Flght Of Labor


4 p : =
| Samuel GOmperS,, president of the
American Federation Of Labor, In an
address at st. Louis. this week before
the joint conventions Of the farmers
unions, made strong plea for a
union of farmers and organized labor
in bringing better Industrial condi-
lions. He denied the report that be
came here to organize new political
party. but declared that when or
ganized farmers will stand shoulder
to shoulder in fighting for equality
and justice, then will come a. new
dispensatfon and new order Of
things. ss,
The unrest throughout the coun-
try is not protest of poverty and
misery" he said, ''but it is the pro-
test of intelligent and progressive
men and women. That there is pow
erty and misery is undeniable. We
need not go far to find myriads Of
men and women begging and plead
ing for work in spite of our boosted
prosperity. Idle men and busy chill
dren is a sufficient indictment of our
present day conditions.
The high cost of living. laid at
the door of the farmer and wage
Garner by our opponents. is due to
other causes entirely. Our opponents
want to pray for us FIVE minutes a
week and prey upon us the rest of
the week.
Farmers do not get too much for
their products, nor wage earners too
much for their labor, and If read
the signs Of the times Alright, the
grinding of the masses for the profit
of the few. will not continue everlast-
ing. We're going to get more, and
then more until the right of life,
liberty and pursuit Of happiness be-
comes an actua1ity and not q glitter
ing generality. The growing to-
gether of labor and farmers means
the end of the battle between dollars
and humanity and the end of the
struggle of ages to free the indus
trial worker from being bound to the
soil"
GOmpers ON SeideI.
President Samuel Gompers. in
speaking about the election Of Seidel,
the socialist, as mayor Of Milwaukee,
said:
Whatever other influences brought
about this election" said Gompers,
zone important factor was the vote
of protest. The indignation Of the
man who works. who is being fiouted
by courts, neglected by congress,
scorned by the attorney generals de-
partment and robbed by the trusts
and other interests is passing beyond
the bounds hitherto observed
Gompers is not socialist, but can
readily see that the unjust treatment
the unions are receiving is driving
many people into the socialist col
umn.

together with other things, it
will be a task of no small under

GARLAND DECIDES
DECISION IN THE EXPRESS RArE
CASE AGAINST RAILROAD
COMMISSION
CAN'T FIX EXPRESS RATES
Court Holds that Commissioners Had
no Authority to Make Schedule
for the Rates Com
planned Of

Sioux Falls-A decision handed
down by Judge John f. Garland in the
federal court in the express rate case
is a complete knock ont for the state
railroad commission in its effort to
fix express rates, and practically ends
commission to fix express rates In
South Dakota.
On December l.. 1909, the railroad
commission issued what is known as
Different Tariff No. I" which was to
go into effect January 10, 1910. Be
fore that time the express companies
procured a temporary restraining
order preventing the commiss. on from
attempting to pat into effect its new
schedule pending a decision from fed
eral court. The railroad commission
filed a demurrer to the complaint Of
the express companies, setting up lack
of jurisdiction. This demurrer was ar
gued several days ago and Judge Car
land has handed down his decision,
the closing paragraph OF which is as
follows:
The words such schedule refer to
the rates established by the act and
the power given is only to change,
modify and establish a rate In such
schedule that has been found to be
unjust or too high or discriminatory
The Legislature certainly would not
have gone to the trouble Of establish
ing Legislative rates and In the same
law provided that the railroad COM
mission could abrOgate them as soon
as they went into effect by making a
new general schedule. 1t seems clear
that the legislature for fear It might
in some case do an injustice by max
ing a horizontal reduction In rates by
sections 5 me 6 of chapter number
1873. intended to provide a remedy to
the express companies or any person
interested to complain in partic lar
instances of the injustice of the rate
which would be created by the nro-
visions Of section 4. AS the cO"rt Is
of the opinion for the reasons herein
stated that the board Of raj road com
miSsiOners had no authority to make
a schedule for The rates complained or.
it is not necessary to determine
whether chapter 159 is valid or MOI.
