the aid of the Lords hosts for a third
term, contrary to the unwr1tten law
of the country and in disregard OF MS
pledge of the people to obey that law.
"The method by which the demo-
cratic convention seized the oppor-
tunity is so simple and straightfor-
ward that 1t at once captured the
confidence and u enthusiasm
1t was accomplished by simply nom
mating for president and vice prest-

create and apply needed governmental
remedies and whose lives give abund-
ant surety that the pledges OF their
party and their own promises to the
people will be faithfully kept
Parker took his text from Wilson's
notification speech wherein is con-
sidered the partnership between the
government and privilege. His method
of treatment was to declare:
First, the fact OF the partnership
and the resulting public injury.
second, that the republican party
lis solely responsible for the inaugura-
| ton of the partnership relations, in
| stancing the tariff end combinations
to restrain trade and to prevent com
petition as Illustrations.
Third. that neither the republican
nor the progressive party could be
trusted to break up the partnership.
Fourth, that the democratic party
could be relied upon to accomplish
results.
IN addition, he said, the repub-
leans received the political support
Of captains OF industry which cover
ed a large sphere of influence, em-
bracing in part their ability to per-

Big Business on Pacific Coast Pre-

/ OLYMPIA, Wash, Dec. 27.-An att
tack was recently made by the big
business interests Of this state to
shape the policy of the industrial In.
surance commission.
The annual report Of the commits
sion had been agreed to by q major
ity Of the commission. Some of the
big business interests do not take
kindly to the present law, and are
fearful that the recommendations to
be made by the commission will be
adopted In the light Of the .investiga-
ttons which the commission has made.
Efforts were made to have ono
member Of the commission deposed.
with the view Of having some one ap-
pointed who will be. partisan to the
big interests.
The law In this state has proven q

Tim Healy. Of Firemen's Union
Gives Facts to New York
Factory Commission.

NEW YORK, Dec. 26.-Timothy
Healy, president of the International
Stationary Firemen's union, testified
before the state factory investigation
commission recently and used vigor-
GUS language in describing the con-
ditions which apply in the Greenpoint,
Long Island, plant Of the Standard
Oil company.
He stated that the men worked in
shifts of ten and II hours day the
year round.
In answer to a question as to whe-
ther or not the Standard Oil COM
rany conducted a welfare department,
Healy replied: mo. Nothing but
hard-working drudgery. John D.
Rockefeller doesn't believe in the
welfare of his men. The only reason
they shortened one Of the shifts to ten
hours, - he exclaimed, 'waz because
otherwise they would have had a
strike on their hands, and they would
have one now If had my way =. -
Healy stated, also, that the furnace
men Of nearly every large office build
ing in the city, and hotels and public
buildings are obliged to put in from
IL to II hours every day, the year
round, and that the average wage was
SIS a week.

MATCH TRUST SUED
FOR VIOLATING LAW
Wisconsin Industrial Commission
Institutes Proceedings for =:
$4,000 in Fines.

MADISON, Wis, Dec. 26.-Much
interest has been aroused by the &C.
ton Of the state against the Diamond
Match company at Oshkosh for fines
of $4,000 alleged to be due for viola
ton of the child labor law.
This is the first action Of the kind
ever instituted. AS a rule child labor
prosecutions have been carried on
and the employer fined, nominal
sum.
The industrial commission of the
state. however, according to state-
ments given out by the chairman,
does not intend to permit violators
to escape with a small fine. In the
past employers have violated the law
deliberately, believing that the profits
of employing cheap child labor would
permit the payment of a. possible fine
and still leave a good margin of
profit. x '.c !
= That the Industrial commission III
not alone in its intention of enforc-
Ing the law is made plain by the at
titude of the governor and attorney
general. In the present case the gov
ernor called upon the attorney general
to prepare the case with the assist
ance of the chairman of the industrial
commission.

IMMIGRATION BILL
TO PASS CONGRESS
Not Believed Opposition to Liter.
acy Test Will Be Sufficient
to Defeat Measure.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 27.-For years
the American Federation of Labor has
endeavored to secure the passage by
congress Of an adequate and equitable
immigration law. One of the features
which the American Federation Of
Labor has contended for has been the
l1teracy test, and 1t has stood stead
fastly by it's demands
When the Dillingham; immigration
bill was passed in the senate it car
rted the literacy test and was then
referred to the house. There was also
before the house committee the Bur-
nett immigration bill, which subse-
quently was favorably reported out.
A motion was made in the house
Dec. Is, during discussion on the Dill
ingham bill. The vote upon this mo-
ton or amendment was in effect a
motion to accept the literacy test in
the Dillingham; bill by the house Of
representatives.
The literacy test was accepted by
the house on roll call vote, the
yeas being POI, nays, 81. Upon this
vote being taken an effort was made
to secure the passage of the bill as
amended.
Congressman Mann, the floor leader
OF the opposition, demanded the read
ing of the engrossed bill. This was
impossible, and had the effect of de-
laying the vote upon the bill al a
whole until such time as the ensrossed
Dill mas been presented to the house.

G0MPERS ANARCHIST,
SAYS RED LECTURER
Charges that American Workers
of the World Are Influenced
by Capitalistic Tactics.

PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 27.-Samuel
Gompers, John Mitchell and William
D. Haywood, union labor leaders.
were declared to be Anarchists Of q
type unwilling to assert their prin-
ciples, but preferring to sail under the
colors of the Socialistic party, in a
lecture by Oscar Ameringer, Oklaho-
ma, before the Socialist Literary So
ciety.
The topic of the speaker was Life
and Deeds of Uncle Sam, which he
announced was a satirica1 resume Of
the events in American history.
He said the Industrial Workers OF
the World, of which Haywood is a
leader, was influenced by "capitalistic
tactics.' He charged that the asso-
Citations of Haywood, Gompers and
Mitchell with Socialists were harmful
to the party. -~.,>
Speaking Of the growth of Socialism
in this country, he said:
mo great Improvement in the life
OF the toilers can be accomplished as
long as the institution of government
is in the hands of their enemies. Tho
Industrial struggle must be carried
or to the political field. We must use
our political power as we'll as the
strike and the boycott. ...z
The freedom. of the workers will
come as the natural result Of tho
freeing of their minds from capitalis-
tic tendencies and influences. Con-
scious Of our class interest, we will
soon recognize that there can be no
equality without equality of oppor-
tunity; there can be no freedom with
out the right to work; no justice un-
less each worker receives the full and
undivided product of his toll. This
means to the end is the struggle, but
the goal Itself Is the abolition OF
classes and class wars through the
ablishment Of the common owner.

A. F. OF |. OFFICERS
APPEAL TO. WILSON.
Gompers and Morrison Have In
terview with President-Elect
Over Labor Legislation.

TRENTON, N. J.. Dec. 27.-With
arms full of papers and documents,
Samuel Gompers and Frank Morri-
son, president and secretary, respec-
lively, of the American Federation Of
Labor, called on President Will
son on Friday last. They spent an
hour with him.
1--WE discussed said Mr.. Gompers
after the conference, Constructive
legislation which shall accord to the
working people the opportunity for
uplift and betterment, and the rights
of association accorded. to all other
voluntary associations of the country,
particularly to association organized
not for profit
I'VE talked of legislation to obtain
the limitation and regulation of the
issuance of injunctions and to provide
trials in indirect contempt cases."
The governor was urged, said N{r.
Gompers, to render whatever assist
ance he could in pushing through the
present congress the bill for the crea-
ton of a department of labor. Mr..
Wilson assured them that he would
take all the subjects mentioned to
him under consideration.
Mr.. Gompers said he did not take
up in detail with Governor Wilson the
question of legalizing the right Of
union labor to organize, as promised
in the Democratic platform, but he
hoped to confer again with the presi-
dent-elect on this subject.

On Sunday last a meeting Of 200
Italians was held at Hibblng, at which
strong resolutions of protest were
made against the passage Of the bill
in it's present form. A similar meet
Ing was held by nearly 1000 Finnish
miners at Ely two weeks ago. A
movement is also developing among
the Austrians and it is expected that

ment Of the miners of Minnesota on
the provisions Of Workingmen's

Italians Get Busy.
The meeting of the Hibbing Italians
was called by the various societies Of
that nationality. The principal pro-
test arises from the provision in the
bill Of the employers association
which reduces the compensation to
be paid to dependents in foreign
countries Of workmen killed in Min
nesota to one-half of that which is
to be paid to dependents who reside
in the United States

by the United State supreme court in

The courts have held for years that
any effort to limit the hours of labor
for women was an interference VITA

gon case came before the court and it
was shown by Mr.. Brandeis, the noted
Boston lawyer, that there were 6,O0O,-
600 women employed in the United
States in industries and that long
hours of labor was injurious to their
health; that many of these women
workers would become the mothers Of
another generation whose weakened

The same principle has been ap-
piled in Massachusetts to the mini
mum wage law. It is purely and dis
tinctly measure In behalf of tho
public health. public morals and the
general welfare, and therefore it is
within the police power of any state
to enact such law irrespective Of
any claim of interference with the

:; Law of supply and Demand"
A. L. Warner, the newly elected
member of the legislature from Du-
luth, is of the opinion that wages
should be subject to the law of sup
ply and demand. No one will seri-
ously. question this contention, but
students of the labor problem hold
to the opinion that there should be
fixed by law minimum wage to be
based upon the ordinary cost Of liv-
ing, and below which no man, woman
or child ought to be permitted to
work.
After this shall have been enacted
we will be perfectly willing to per-
init the so-called law Of supply and
demand, operate to it's hearts
content above the minimum wage,
scale provided by law
It is really wholesome to observe
how the club women Of Duluth are
taking to the idea. Many members
of the legislature are on record OF be-
ing IN favor Of It's passage, and with.
Just little effort on the part Of So
scial welfare workers and labor the;
bill Can be enacted into law.
