an excerpt from this article be read

cerpt Is hereby inserted:
The latter (Mr. Gompers) is the leader
Of the socialistic element. which Is pretty
we'll represented in the congress. and one
of the smartest men present 1t is thought
that an attempt will be made to capture
the organization for Mr. Gompers (for per-
manent president) as the representative OF
the Socialists. and II such an attempt ID
made, whether II succeeds or not. there
will likely be some lively work. as the del
egates opposed to socialism are deter
mined not to be controlled by It, II the
Socialists do not have their way they may
bolt, as they have always done in the
past II they do bolt the power of the
proposed organization will be SO seriously
crippled as almost to destroy its useful
ness.
There were two reports from the
permanent organization committee.

ais for the various offices. As stated
above. Mr.. Gompers had been recon-

Tn. comp.r. Contempt Case.

A misrepresentation exists in many
quarters as to the nature Of the final
decision of the supreme court Of the
United States upon the appeal In the
contempt proceedings. many believing
that the court decided that civil
process could be instituted by the su.
preme court of the District of COlum-
bia for which fine only could be as
sessed. The facts are that the su
preme courts decision reversed the
sentences upon Gompers. Mitchell and
Morrison on the ground that the plain.
tits sued for civil damages and relief
and that Justice Wright imposed GRIM
inal sentences. The new proceedings
inaugurated by Justice Wright against
the defendants are for criminal con-
tempt Of court. for which. II he ad-
judges them guilty, he may impose
such sentences Of Imprisonment as he
may determine.

REASONS FOR UNIONS.

Nearly every employer whom

Der Of those whose works show
that they do believe In them and
who are seeking to enter into
cordial cooperation with them
, Most employers. however. are
apt to qualify their confession
of faith by some such phrase as
this: when properly organized
and managed" There seems to
be something wanting In such
} confession. Would a man say.
II believe In the family when
) properly constituted and con
ducted." or Il believe In democ-
racy when properly organized
and managedT"
Most Of those who say that
they believe In unions IF proper
ly conducted" mean to confine
their approval to such unions H.
are purely social or beneficial.
, Trade unions generally embody
some such features. but they are
not the central reasons for their
existence. The trade union has
always had insurance features
and social and educational fea-
} lures. These are the features
which the average employer Is
) ready to indorse. but the main
purpose for which they are or
) ganized is thus succlnctly ex-
pressed by Mr.. and Mrs. Webb:
ITO provide continuous assocl-
alton Of wage earners for the

employment."-Dr. Washington
