New York, Aug. 6.-Unless the at
mosphere clears considerably as re-
CARDS the labor problem New York
may have a theatreless season, or else
a season of plays produced under
such trying circumstances that it will
mean financial loss to both the man
ayers, the musicians and the stage
hands. Today the stage hands are
going to consider the demands they
are to make upon the theatrical man
ayers. They have already approached
the managers insisting upon them to
sign contracts, one s0ing to the stage
hand, the other to the manager. the
third to the International Alliance of
Stage Employees, that the managers
have no right to discharge an en-
ploye for incompetency and that
stage hands must be engaged for the
entire life of a play for which they
have been hired. The managers de-
clare that they are willing to pay un-
ion wages and employ union men, but
refuse to sign any individual con-
tracts with the men under existing
demands. The managers will also
face this week the ultimatum from
the musicians union.

ANNOUNCES FOR REELECTION 10
 CONGRESS

On another page OL IfllS iSSue of the Picayune will be found the announcement of Hon w. $. Goodwin of Warren, Ark, at present serving his first term as a member of Congress from the Seventh Congr1 ssionol district of this state, as a candidate for re- election. MT. Goodwin needs no introduction to the people of the Seventh Congressional district. The canvass he made four years ago against Hon. R. M. Wallace and Col. J. H. McCollum for the same position, Is a memorable one in this district and throughout the entire state of Arkansas. Two years ago he made the race against Hon. R. M. Wallace and D. Latimore King, defeating MT. Wallace, his nearest opponent, by a large majority. For four years he represented the people of the Eighteenth Senatorial dis trict in the State Senate, during ing the memorable sessions of 1905 and 1907. introducing and passing many wholesome laws for the benefit of the laboring classes.
 Up to this time no other candi- date has announced for this office against him, and it is thought that no one will oppose him for the nomination. this being his race for a second term.
 It is no Encouragement of the record and services of others to say of MT. Goodwin that he has taken as high rank in the House of Representatives as is rarely permitted to a new member. He Is an influential and active mem her of the important Committee on Foreign Relations, and ia the recent consideration of the de- mands of the people of the U 9ited States for q cancellation of the treaty with Russia, he rendered important and intelligent service, which was recognized and favor abl4 commented oA Ds his o.der associates in the house. His record so far has been one of in- dustry intelligently dir eted to the promotion of the interests of his constituents, and Ii is safe to say that. as his experience grows. his value to his district yill in- crease. He is recognized as a pronounced success. and his earn est and conscientious devotion ,a his ohicia, duties ard his agree able and engaging manners, will so widen his acquaintance and increase his opportunities as t9 convince has constituents thas tn. made no mistahe when g selected him fer his present osi- tion.
