Just one thing 1 object to in the
report OF the meeting Of the Texas
Republican League The report In the
Dallas News Of February % says
.sOne speaker asserted. with an awe
some array Of language, that such re-
ply treferring to reply Mr. McGres-
or had given was just the variety Col.
Lyon would have given to the same
classed and compared with any mem

any such comparative statement Ihe

citizen OF Texas against harmful
statements and ! now claim the pro-
lection Of the libel laws Of this state
I take this means Of replying to the
hundreds Of inquiries which nave
reached me from ali sections of Texas,
asking concerning my presidential
preference At the present moment
the candidates asking for the Repub-
Hcan nomination for president are the
president, Hon. William H. Taft, SEN
ator Cummins, OF Iowa, and senator
La Toilette, OF Wisconsin At this
moment my d esent preference is for
an uninstructed delegation, for have
believed that those states which viii
probably cast Republican electoral
votes should be the ones to make first
expression of their entiment, and this
announcement is all that have made
20 date.
Fnvors Roosevelt
Ny personal preference would be
for the nomination of Theodore Roose-
velt and should he become candidate,
I shall become a candidate for delegate
to the national convention, and II elect
ed I shall vote for the nomination OF
Theodore Roosevelt It is my
understanding that president Taft
through his manager, Charles d.
lille, has asked II. T. McGregor
to assume the management OF
the Taft campaign in this state
That is entirely satisfactory to me,
but while no man has greater re-
spect for the high office Of president
OF the United States than 1 have, I
do not grant to the president OF the
United States, nor to any man, the
right to assail and attempt to destroy
the Republican organization in this
state I know what has been done in
the vav OF improving the organization
in the state, and any man who assails
that organization, be his political af-
ffliatiOus what they may, need expect
no political support from me.

thar the public should be apprtsed OF
the misstatements contained in the
address of the socalled Progressive

Legislation Enacted.

The initiative and referendum bill, pro-
viding for the making of laws, as fin
ally passed was amended so as TO re-
quire 10 and 6 per cent respectively, on
initiative and referendum petitions. The
time which laws enacted should be in
force before being subject to amendment
was reduced from four to two years. A
proviso requiring that no measure should
be enacted or rejected by the initiative
or referendum process unless ne-third
of all the votes cast at such election
voted on the issue was attached. Other
wise the bill passed as prepared by its
friends We acquiesced in these amend
ments, believing they We're but slightly
if at all detrimental to the successful
working of the initiative and referen-
dunn.
Every effort was made by political
and special interests" legislators to de
feat this measure by amending it with a
view to making it as near valueless as
possible

this we took the precaution at the same
time to pledge members to vote for the
bill as introduced and without any
amendments except those agreeable to
its authors. A majority of the house
members signed such a pledge The

CONVENTION FOR
NATIONAL TEMPLE
FEDERATION ADOPTS
RESOLUTION FAvORING A
PLAN FOR NEW ORGANIZA-
TION AND TEMPLE TO BE
LOCATED AT WASHINGTON.

Spokane Jan. lS.--Make Washington,
d. c.. the international headquarters of
every trades and labor organization in
the United States.
Bring together, under one roof, in the
capital city, the heads of every union of
wage earners, now scattered throughout
36 different cities of the nation
Place an assessment of 25 per cent of
one days salary upon every union work
ing man and woman in the country for
the construction of national labor tenn
pie of sufficient size for this purpose
and with an auditorium in connection
large enough to hold the greatest labor
conventions.
Such are the proposals laid before the
working people of the whole United
States in a resolution adopted in the
X. of P. hall here today by the eighth
annual convention of the Washington
State Federation of Labor.
Never before in the history of the
country has labor body taken such
steps to centralize it's forces at the basis
of national legislation and to eliminate
irisdictional disputes and pickering,
which is held to be the greatest bane to
organized labor at the present time.
For years the American Federation OF
Labor has been attempting to secure
sufficient funds and site for ma
tional labor temple, but at each conven-
tion of that body the committeeman in
charge of the matter have asked for
more time. 1t is believed that the action
taken by the Washington State Fedora
tion of Labor will practically force the
parent body to early action in the pro-
ject.
The matter will probably be submit
ted to referendum vote of all unions
in the country affiliated with the Ameri
can Federation of Labor, representing
over 100000 working people.

INDUSTRIAL INSURANCE
LAW PRAISED.

Spokane, Jan. lS.-Leading educators
and students of economics and sociology,
after hearing the Washington industrial
insurance law outlined at the recent con-
vention of the American Association for
Labor Legislation at Washington, d. c.,
praised the act as the most advanced
and complete ever enacted.
Industrial Insurance Commissioner j.
H. Wallace, who appeared at the con
vention to talk on the new law of this
state, now in Spokane in attendance at
the State Federation of Labor, said
"The Labor Legislation association in
cluded some of the best known educators
in the country. They all agreed that the
industrial insurance law, as administered
in Washington, represented the last word
in the progress of state compensation.
While in Washington | learned that the
congressional committee will soon recon-
mend the passage of a compulsory com
pensation law similar in many respects
80 the Washington act"

On February 2S the committee was
notified of the large number of bills of
popular interest in their possession and
courteously requested to put same on
the calendar, the request was repeated
frequently and less courteousy perhaps,
but nothing was done. While com
menting on committees it is but fair to
state that in every instance, except the
above and one noted under house bill
No. go, we received fair, courteous and
prompt consideration of all measures in
which we were interested.
