PUTS BLAME ON
|. THE WORK|MGMEM
They Are Themselves Responsible Tor
Working Conditions, Says Samuel
Gompers, In Address Here.

I'VE protest against the perpetra-
ton OF all the misery OF the world
on the laboring man. when we pro-
duce all the wealth of the world. But
We do not blame the trusts and cor
porations. We place the blame where
II belongs-with the working men and
women themselves. IL they were true
to themselves and to one another, the
courts could issue injunctions and
they wouldn't be worth the paper on
which they were written"
Thus spoke Samuel Gompers. pres
ident OF the American Federation Of
Labor, before an audience OF 500 peo-
pie In Schiller hall, Friday evening.
The meeting Was under the auspices
OF Cigarmakers' union, No, %. the
Cigar Packers union, No. 284. and
the Tobacco Workers local. George
w. Perkins, president OF the Cigar.
makers International union, presided
The meeting was intended to stir up
interest in the local unions.
Mr. Gompers expressed the belief
that there Is better day coming for
the laboring man and for all mankind,
for that matter Discussing strikes,
he said:
Though i believe that strikes
should be averted wherever possible
still IL reasonable conditions cannot
be obtained without a strike, then
say, by the gods, strike and strike
hard. The men Of labor will never
surrender their right to strike"
With reference TO his contempt case.
now pending in the supreme court,
Mr.. Gompers said that II the jail SEN
fences are set aside 1t will mean that
the question Of free speech and free
press for the people has been settled
for all time.
IF we lose, II will simply mean that
the people will have to begin the fight
all over again." he added.
Before the arrival of Mr.. Gompers
and the other speakers, including Mr..
Perkins. Charles Adler. second vice
president OF the Tobacco Workers In
ternational union, and John 8. p.
Oliver, vice-president OF the Interna-
tional Cigarmakers' union, made ad-
dresses and the crowd was entertain

NJ. U. r. TO USE d. U. r. TRACKS
Will Gain Entrance 90 Detroit a. Re
cult Of Traffic Agreement.

The Detroit United and the Michi-
gan United railway companies have
entered into a contract whereby
through electric service, both passen
ger and freight. will be inaugurated al
an early date between Detroit and Kali
amazoo and Detroit and Lansing The
agreement Is subject to ratification by
the stockholders of the ID. u. r. In
the annual meeting next Tuesday, but
there Is no question as to the deal
going through, IL il said.
The Michigan United has been try
ing to gain an entrance to Detroit
for some time either through the De-
United or through franchise from
the city. When the company met with
opposition from both these sources,
il prepared to secure private right
of-way TO Detroit and build a third
rail system between here and Jack
son. This plan, OF course, will be
abandoned now.
The NJ. u. X. system Is thoroughly
modern and it's cars run on a SEIZED
ule almost as fast as those OF the
steam roads with which Il completes.
The company is now building a line
from Lansing to Owosso, which will
be In operation by spring. The new
arrangement will facilitate shipping
between Detroit and Chicago. The VI
U. r. connects with the Fruit Belt
Line. running from Kalamazoo to Ben
ton Harbor, and from the latter city
boat line runs to Chicago.
Just what the traffic arrangements
are between the two companies is
not announced.

Barbecued sheep, lamb, ram and mutton, together with all of the side dishes which go toward making up a complete out-in-the- open feast, will be served by the Tucson -Elks lodge at Pas time Park on Sunday, April 30, according to announcement made yesterday at the Ell1s' Club. The affair will be for Elks alone, and in all probability the park will be closed for the day against outsiders.
 Not alone good things to eat will be in evidence, but general good cheer and a swell time for any visiting brothers who are present is the promise of the order. That there will be plenty of visitors is assured by the action of the Southern Pacific, which has made a rate of one and one third fares for the round trip between Nogales and Benson to Tucson. This rate was announced yesterday by the committeeman, following a con- ference with the local passenger office. Tucson Star.

OF INTEREST
 TO ARIZONANS

The land office at Phoenix has just received adviceS fro.A the general land office, which will be of great interest to Arizonans. Under the statehood act it is provided sections ? and 32 will belong to the tel ritory. It was therefore supposed in case of relinquishment or cancellation of entries for cause, the lands of such sections would revert to the territory to which they have been granted by the enabling act. But that is not the case. When entries have been made prior to June p of last year, the date of the signing of the enab- ling act, and when such entries have been relinquished or can celled, the land revertS to the public domain and is presumably subject to entry again and will be until the final step has been taken in the statehood business. After that the land in these sections will be the property of the new State-PhnniX Repub- lican
