thusiasm to the aims and accomplish

with which he declared he was familiar
1.-THE most valuable feature of the
federation" he said, lis that it has in

problems of the day, and in getting the
people to do the work themselves
Timothy Healy, president of the In

by Mrs. John Hays Hammond. national
chairman of the women's welfare de-
partment, made a strong appeal for
trades unions, and condemned the spirit
Of socialism, which has arisen in the
country.
Plea for NVorkinEman.
Pleading strongly for the workingman,
Mr.. Healy declared that ''if the manu-
facturers and captains of industry paid
as much attention to his employees as he
did to his machinery and to his mule, We
would not have so much socialism as we
have to-day
THE federation is doing a great good
in its work in this country. and some
thing has to be DONE" he added. Some
thing has got to be done right now in
keeping. socialism down in this country,
and / believe that with the federation
working hand in hand with the trades
unions much can be accomplished.
I'm the city of Milwaukee, the mayor,
who is a socialist, refused to display the
Stars and Stripes on Washington's Birth
day, and if they were allowed to have
their way there would be no Stars and
Stripes flying to-day"
Mr.. Healy urged that the federation
take up the cause of the workingman.
He espoused the cause of the government
employees, declaring the country was rich
enough TO give a decent living to every
man who wants to work. He pointed
out that twenty-five years have elapsed
since the scale of higher wages has been
raised for the government employees.
Referring to the trades unions and their
fight against child labor, Mr.. Healy de-
clared they wanted, and are in favor of.
decent hours for their men.

followed antiquated trade condi-
tions-that it was their practice,
as it should be the practice of
every legitimate wholesaler or
manufa cturer, to LABEL
GOODS FOR WHAT THEY
WERE, and not what they were
supposed to be-that is, if cloth
is wool and cotton, say so; IF it is
all wool, say so-then nobody
would ever buy a pig in poke"
The judge decided that
CLOTH is NOT ALL WOOL
when there is anything in its
composition other than wool, and
he instructed the jury to find for
the defendant and to disregard
the plea of TRADE Gus

Here is lesson that ought to

No one should ever be permit

WALTER LoWRIE FISHER.

Walter Lowrie Fisher is of German
and English blood. He was. born az
Wheeling, w. Va, on July 4. 1852. His
father was for many years president of
Hanover College, of Hanover, Ind,
from which Mr.. Fisher was graduated,
before he was twenty-one. Four years
later he was admitted to the barr and
began practicing in Chicago, which he
has since continued, now being mem

den
MIR. Fisher is a Republican. In To-
cal matters, in which he has taken a
very prominent part. principally as spe-
cial traction attorney for the city of
Chicago in the big traction fight there
few years ago, Mr.. Fisher has shown
quite a degree of independence. He
has shown strong sympathy for reform
movements generally. He has been
connected with the conservation move
ment since the summer of 1908, when
he assumed the presidency of the Con-
servation League of America. which
later was merged into the National
Conservation Association. of which Mr..
Fisher is now vice president.

is satisfactory. I wanted to notify you
that she had been found and thank the
police for their. efforts in aiding me to
locate her" No reason for her Ebsence
could be learned.
The disappearance of Mrs. Knox was
a mystery to the police since the case
was first reported to Central office. No
reason has ever been assigned by her
husband for her leaving home, and
the fact that her two little children ac-
companied her made the case even more
complicated.
The report which first reached police
headquarters, and which was later veri-
fed, stated that Mrs. Knox had been to
the apartment of her mother, Mrs. jan
ney, in the Albert apartment house, and
after leaving there had disappeared. No
motive could be assigned by the police
for her leaving her home.
Knox was frantic at the prolonged alb
sence of his wife and little children, and
did everything in his power to aid the
police in locating her.

To all who know him, one quality OF
Mr.. Fisher stands out pre-eminently-
that is, his aggressiveness. He is a
man of unusually striking appearance.
He is tall, with a strong physique and
a very positive personality. He is con-
siderable of an outdoor man. being an
enthusiastic supporter of baseball and
football. but the game which he pre-
fers is golf.
Mr.. Fisher is recognized as a debater
of uncommon ability. Essentially he
is a combater, and always speaks with
perfect confidence. He is known as
having a remarkable gift of present
ing the most complex problems in a
clear and convincing manner. He is
fearless and outspoken. In a sketch or
Mr.. Fisher. written by Edward r Rob
erts, this statement is made: "Assur-
ance in himself radiates from the man.
If he were called to be President of the
United States, or Car of Russia, he
would accept promptly and with an in
finite certainty that he was fully quail
fed for the post. Furthermore, ne
would be his own prime minister, for
he is a masterful man who prefers SUBJ
ordinates to colleagues"

provision that employees shall be allowed

in amount equal to services rendered by
them on Sundays.
THE thousands of employees now in this
great service should not overlook the fact
that Mr.. Hitchcock has been endeavoring
to have Congress extend their annual
leave to thirty days, the same as in the
Post-office Department. This effort has
been made by him ever since he became
connected with the department.

Justice Harlan and Former Speaker
Cannon Regret His Retirement.
Among the many letters received yes
terday by former Representative James
A Tawney, for six years chairman OF the
House Committee on Appropriations,
were missives from former Speaker Can
non and Justice Harlan, of the United
States Supreme Court.
All of the communications expressed
deep resret at MIR. Tawney's retirement
from public life, Justice Harlan saying
that he hoped Mr.. Tawney would be re-
tanned at the Capital in some capacity
suited to his reputation and experinece.
Mr.. Cannon said in part: 'I write to
express my appreciation of the invalua-
BILE services performed by you, and to
congratulate you and the country on the
manner in which the duties intrusted to
you have been performed
Speaking of Mr.. Tawney's antagonism
to the Roosevelt policies, Mr.. Cannon at
tributed his defeat to that opposition, but
thought that the American people, upon
second thought, will appreciate the cour-
ageous public official who performs his
duties in the face of criticism and de-
feat"

Asserting the United States should at
no time leave itself open to attack and
that it was bound to engage in war in
the fHtdre, former Senator J. NJ. Thurs
ton vigorously condemned that element
which is protesting against the fortifi-
cation of the Panama Canal, in an ad-
dress last night at the nineteenth annual
banquet of the Second Army Corps As
sociation at the Arlington Hotel.
From the enthusiasm which followed
his remarks, it was evident that his SEN
timents were backed by the entire corps,
as we'll as the guests, which included
Gen. Nelson A. Miles, once head of the
army. members of Congress, and officers
of the regular army.
Mr.. Thurston strongly declared that he
did not believe the United States should
ever find itself in a position when it
could not resist an attack on the Panama
Canal. which would be the first point an
enemy would make for in case of war.
Preparation for war is the surest way
of maintaining peace, he argued.
Refers to Mexico.
Gen. Miles, who was introduced by
association, referred in glowing terms to
the organizati ton OF the regular army and
the position of the United States as q
world power. AS a proof of this, he de-
clared, the government has just ordered
1900 troops to the Mexican border at

universal demand for a natural and

Food, air, sunlight, exercise, rest,

treatment. In short, there are but
few diseases, especially the chronic
diseases, that have not been success
fully treated by osteopaths. One Of
the greatest recommendations to this
method is that It is tonic and con-
structive, not destructive. Run

weak, debilitated people who have
no definite disease, are always
helped. And the help L gets from

he began the practice of his new

he called Osteopathy. His efforts
at first excited nothing but ridicule,
but this was quickly silenced by
some marvellous cures which he per-

around him a handful of enthusiasts
who studied the science, and, having
been thoroughly schooled, went out

Naturally, the rapid growth of In

to work night and day in order to
