Chairman Griffin's Address.
FELLOW UNIONISTS:

| FELLOW CNIONlSTS:
 1 It is my pleasure and distinction to call together this, the first con | vention of delegates of labor organi- cations of Arizona, wiJh the avowed object of forming a State Federation 1 of Labor, on behalf of the Advisory 1 Committee, the Trades Council and | the whole of the Local Unions. To those who have come from outside of | Phoenix, we greet you, and extend to you a most hearty and cordial well come tc this. the capital of the new state It is with great pleasure that we do so. The eyes. not only of Arizona, but those of the United States. of Canada, and the whole of the American colonies are focused upon us today. They are watching and listening with deliberatiOn the outcome of this meeting.
 T greet you as men who are for the uplift of mankind the world over, whatever their callings may be. The great principles and teachings of or ganized labor are for the betterment Of mankind. no matter where they are taught.
 T greet you as men who are fol- lowing one who was called The Great. who first proclaimed to the world some 700 years ago it was proper to institute the eight hour labor day, so that our ideals in this respect are not new, but it has grown and grown, until today it is not only recognized as d correct principle by American working men, but by con- servative thinking men, whether they belong to the creeds and crafts of la bor or not
 Transportation and industrial busi- ness are conducted through the in- vestment Of money and the labor of men. Both should unite to bring either to transportation or industrial enterprises success. It is therefore but right that each should receive d fair proportion of the profit made by their united effort. Those who handle the money are human; we are human, and if we do not organize. how can we expect to obtain d fair proportion of the profits. Organizations are for the upbuild1ng of our fellow men, mentally, morally. spiritually and fi- nancially, with better conditions, bet ter homes. better and safer workshops, factories, mills and mines; in a word, a better, higher and nobler life.
 What a power we have if only used properly. I have no sympathy with the prejudice against union labor. It comes from narrowness and lack of comprehension. I am as far as any man from uttering a thought that would stir prejudice or bad feel ing between men and money but l would have those who possess a larger share of the money sympathiZe with our desire to see the improvement of their fellow citizens.
 Now, we should not expect any revolution. There is not going to be any revolution. This is going to be a quiet business proposition, and it seems to me. as a beginning, and for a moment imagining myself out side of the ranks looking in on the game, that if the two organizations, Capital ( not the capitalistic class of financiers) and Labor can be brought together. they can settle all questions amicabiy in very short time, as time goes.
 'The principles for which we stand are just and right and the one thing I do not understand is that the whole of the 1S,O0O,O0O men of the United

 An incident Of the day was the re-
 porting of the Arizona Sheep Shear CTS union No. l, which was the first Knowledge that many Of the dele gates had of the existence of such an organization.
 Many resolutions and propositions were submitted to the convention for action and referred to committees. Nothing has vet been acted upon, and no one can certainly forecast what will be done. IL is indicated. how ever. by expressions of many Of the delegates that the convention will take little note of the legislature by telling it what it must do, or rather how il must do it. but rather will confine its action to a resolution setting forth the numerous demands of labor and pass the action along for the legislature to work out it's own salvation. IT if fails to deliver the goods resort will then be made to the initiative and referendum, with which the labor element believes It is now strong enough to achieve its purposes.
 A full report of the proceedings IS being made by Frank Brighton, who was named as official stenographer. l
 It was learned last night that j. C. | Adams had offered the convention his | hotel for smoker, dinner or what ! ever entertainment they might de- ] sire. as q courtesy to the union men ! of the territory. His offer will be | placed before the convention today.

For Farmers to Think About.

The cutworm, the boll-weevil, the
Hessan fly, the potatobug and mis-
celaneous other insects, the field
mice, the shrews and the barn and
house rats have no quarrel over the
high cost of living. The country to
them is a land flowing with milk and
honey.
The farmer plants for them. He
provides them with shelter He
raises scarecrows to warn Off their
enemies. And in between times the
boys go forth with rifle and shotgun,
with bird lime and "sllngshots.' and
see to 1t that the insects and rodents
are further protected.
