There is Richard J. Hopkins, Lieu

wild and wool1y West, residing at Gar

But we must bunch a few of these
Insurgents for it is late.

ers are really too numerous to men

good "Insurgent," was a candidate for

There is Honorable F. S. Jackson.

that job with great profit to himself

Socialists Start Insurgent Movement in
Federation of Labor.

Atlanta. Nov. 17.-Socialists in the
American Federation of Labor convention
have begun their s'insurgent' movement
against the present administration of the
federation. The first open sign of hos
tility appeared today in the printed rec
ord which showed a resolution proposing
that the federation adopt the initiative
and referendum in the election of Of
ficers. AS it would require a constitu-
tional amendment to accomplish this
proponents of the resolution are not san
guine of its adoption.
The resolution to appropriate $4,000 for
the defense of the McNamaras was intro
duced by Delegate A. J. Gallagher of
California last night ten minutes before
midnight, tn last hour at which resolu-
tions could be offered. It was referred to
the committee on presidents report. 1t
is regarded as almost certain that it will
precipitate a big fight on the floor.

BY a score of to the Topeka High
school football team defeated the Law
renee High school team today at the
Washburn field. Topeka made a
touchdown and safety and Lawrence
made a touchdown. Goal was kicked
in each case.
At the end of the first quarter the
score in the LaWrence-Topeka high
school game was to O. The teams
seemed fairly evenly matched. Law
renee outweighs the locals. The quar-
ter closed with the ball in Topeka's
possession on their own 35 yard line
He'll and Russell we're about even
on the exchange of punts in the first
quarter and the forward passes failed
as signally for one side as they did
the other. woodward and Sargent
carried the ball about the same dis
lance in returning kicks.
Both teams scored in the second
quarter, scoring touchdown and
kicking goal on tumble made by
Hopkins when he was tackled by He'll
on the Topeka 10-yard line. The ball
bounced over the goal line and Cowell,
Lawrence center, fell on it for
touchdown.
Topeka scored a safety when, after
having lost the ball on the Lawrence
2-yard line, they downed Russell be-
fore he could punt out. The teams
seemed more evenly matched than in
the early period.
Tho teams remained scoreIess
through the third quarter, but To-
peks prevented another touchdown
only by q most determined stand on
the two yard line. Getting the bail or
downs the Topekans held while He'll
punted 10 yards. Woodward OF Law
renee caught the ball and by fast
work returned it 80 yards. The period
closed with the ball in Lawrence'5
possession on Topeka's Q yard line.
With the fourth period more than
half over Hell intercepted a forward
pasa on the 40 yard line and ran all
the way for touchdown. He then
