CONVENT
Of LABOR
OPENS

(By United Press Leased Wire. }
ST. LOUIS, Nov. 14.-The thir-
teenth annual convention of the
American Federation of Labor
convened today in this city. Pres
ident Samuel Gompers presided.
Five hundred delegates, repre-
senting every organized trade in
every state in the Union as well
as the provinces of Canada, were
present.
Victor L. Berger, recently elect
ed to congress from Wisconsin
on the socialist ticket, was at the
convention and is taking an active
part in the politics of the Fedora
tion. Berger, it is said, is oppos-
ed to the reelection of Gompers
to the presidency. The opposi-
tion he has stirred up, will, it is
expected, bring into more sharp
contrast the issue between the So
cialists and the other members of
the Federation. :

Virginia Harmed Shows the Same TwinkIing Toes

"I nominate Virginia Harmed for

after signing through perform

Then, of course, remembered.
Miss Harmed shows her twink

did in "Trilby."

years or so, we will learn that
Miss Harmed first attained top

BRUTALLY
MURDERED.
Specially

HOQUIAM, Nov. 14.-One of
the most brutal murders since the
celebrated Todd murder was COM
mitted in this city last night,
when A. H. Fook, Chinese gar
dener, was killed in his own home
and his body thrown into the river,
after being dragged $50 feet and
thrown over two fences.
Several Chileans and Mexicans
were drunk last night and reused
the neighborhood with yells, and
1t is thought that they disturbed
the Chinaman, and that he at
tempted to scare them away with
a gun, and the murder resulted.
The head was almost severed
from the body and cut in a dozen
different places with a hatchet,
which was found in the house ly-
ing on a table. The Chinaman's
hands were cut in many places,
showing that he fought for hts
life.

Copeland Says Berger
Will Fail to Bring
Over Unionists

What VIII the socialists do as
regards the American Federation
of Labor?
Tacoma union men are taking
a deep interest in the question.
From St. Louis, where the Fed
Grafton is in national convention,
comes the news that Victor Ber-
ger Is on the ground at the head
of a lively bunch of socialist fol-
lowers determined to sidetrack
President Gompers and line up
the Federation for the socialistic
program.
The heavy socialist vote in this
county at the recent election has
given the socialist propaganda
big boom and some socialists
think they are going to whip the
Federation into line or kill 1t.
Some Federation men scout the
idea of the great labor federation
taking up the socialist program.
IT don't think Berger will get
anywhere with his movement, -
said T. v. Copeland this morn
ing.
Copeland Is socialist. He
: has attended the national conven-
tions of the Federation as dele
gate in years past. And he voted
with Berger when the tests came.
But he does not think Berger can
win.
Says Leaders Oppose.
"The Federation will never en-
dorse socialism," said Copeland.
ut will go out of business first.
"Why? Because the leaders of
the Federation are against 1t, and
have their interests on the other
side.
1.-THE leaders of the Federation
are always at the conventions and
the leaders are working with the
capitalists. In this country a
man may be a street sweeper to-
day and tomorrow a millionaire.

He thinks prejudice is too

OREGON GAME
MAY RESULT
IN DEATH
(By United Press Leased Wire. J

(By United Press Leased Wire.)
EUGENE, Ore, Nov. 14.-As a
result of brutality following the
victory of the Oregon football
team over Corvallis last Saturday
Harold Bean, son of Judge Bean
of the federal court bench in
Portland, may die. He is suffer-
ing from concussion of the brain.
Just before a train bearing
Oregon rooters left Corvallis for
Eugene, number of students
boarded it and attacked one of
the Oregon men. Other students
pilfered the coach, stealing per-
sonal effects of passengers.
The college authorities are up
in arms over the matter and it is
probable that several students
will be expelled.
