ARSON IN LABOR WAR
TWO MEN HELD AS INcENDIARIEs
AT CHICAGO.
Are Charged With Firing Buildings
Worth More Than 100000 With
in Past Six Months.

Chicago, Nov. 1.-Two men, who
are said to be salaried ~'irebugs" in
the employ Of warning labor unions,
are under arrest here charged with
having caused the destruction of more
than 500, 900 worth of buildings I'M
der construction in Chicago within the
last six months.
The men were arrested as the result
of a patient investigation conducted
by Fire Attorney Michael F. Sullivan.
He says they are responsible for at
least nine incendiary fires. He de-
clares the prisoners are representa-
tives of a union which is fighting a
rival with fire just as, less than a year
ago, paid bravoes of rival plumbing
unions were fighting each other with
bullets.
The prisoners gave the names of
Charles Cameron, member of a Chica-
go painters union, and James A. An
derson, owner of a garage.
Cameron and Anderson are said to
be connected with local No. 134 of the
International Brotherhood of Electri-
cal Workers. This organization has
5000 members in the United States
and Canada, and the membership of
the local union is about 1000.
In 1908 Union No. 134 seeded from

trical Workers No. 376. This union has

PRESIDENTIAL RESULT
AS IT NOW SHOWS

New York Nov. 8.-President
Taft will have only eight votes in the
electoral college. Four years ago he
had 321.
Only Vermont and Utah, with four
votes each remain in the Taft column.
He appears to have won in neither
state by more than a close shave.
Wyoming went from Taft to the
Wilson column this morning. Wilson
has 455 electoral votes.
Roosevelt has FIVE states-Michi-
gan, Minnesota. Pennsylvania, South
Dakota and Misunderstanding n
electoral votes, but may win Cali
fornia when the final returns are
complete. This would give him 80
and Wilson would reduced to 432.
GETS MORE THAN SO PER CENT.
Mr.. Wilson received more than SO
per cent of the total electoral vote.
Only twice before in the country's
history have candidates for the presi-
dency received the same proportion of
votes as Wilson. franklin Pierce in
1852 received 254 electoral votes
against forty-twu for Winfield Scott.
In. 1864 Abraham Lincoln received 212
electoral votes while his opponent,
Gen Mcclellan, received twenty one.
SENATE SAFELY DEMOCRATIC
Control of the senate seems GER
tainly Democratic. The sure Demo-
cratic senators number 48, half of the
total membership, and this would give
a Democratic vice president the con-
trolling vote in case of a tie. But
there are states to be heard from
where the result is still doubtful,
notably Illinois. The Democratic
leaders at headquarters are confident
they will get two and possibly three

FEDERATION OF LABOR MEETS
President Gompers in His Address Al
Iudes Only Briefly to the Los
Angeles Outrage.

Rochester, n. Y, Nov. lin his
annual address to the American Fed
Grafton of Labor, which opened its
convention here today, President Sam
uel Gompers stated that if it had not
been for the blowing up of the Los
Angeles Times by the Mcnamara
brothers and Ortie Mechanical. the
metal trades unions would have won
their strike for an eight-hour day,
which was in progress at the time of
the dynamiting.
This was the only time that Presi-
dent Gompers made any direct ref
erence to the Mcnamara affair, and he
did not mention the trial of the As
alleged dynamiters which is now in
progress in Indianapolis and which in
wolves the leaders of the International
Association of Bridge and Structural
Iron Workers. He did, however. point
out the things the federation had done
in aid of the unions which are engaged
in iron and steel work. and added that.
lowing to events and incidents which
cannot be recorded here at this time,
a visible decline in the power of the
iron and steel workers organization
ensued, particularly where the mem
bership had been employed by the
great steel corporations" He con
demned the United States Steel cor
poration for it's determination in main
tanning an oper hop. Mr.. Gompers'
address was fonowed by a reL9ft sub
mitted by Secretary Morrison.

In a recent report by the federal
labor bureau III reads the most con-
vincing proofs of the constant up
ward trend in the cost of living. This
report covers prices in industrial CEN
tiers in 30 states, and it shows that Ia
of 10 items of food, and the most i'm
portant in the diet of the workers,
have advanced substantially during
the past year, while during the past
ten years these same items have gone
up more than 80 per cent. The ques-
tlon then to be settled is, has the
wage schedule kept pace with the
soaring price? Few will claim that
there has been anything like a so per
cent advance in wages during the past
decade. Then the worker is not
getting a fair share of the present
Observation-Disclosures Democrat.
Fully as much can be said concern
ing many lines of business. Take
the printing business for an example.
We get no higher rate for our sub
sCIIption, u advertising, and practi-
cally no more for our job printing in
this section CT country than we did
ten years ago, and yet every item of
expense that enters into the cost of our
products has greatly ~increased-in
some instances so per cent If a
customer wants a set of bills, a supply
of office stationery or anything else in
standard printing he is charged no
more than he had to pay ten years
ago. When he pays his subscription
it is no higher than it was then.
The printer stands the increased cost
OF production and his profits are
thereby lessened, often to the vanish
ing point. Prices Of printing and
Advertising will have to rise if news
paper publishers are to receive their
honest share of the present prosperity.

THE ELECTION OF WILSON.

The election of Woodrow Wilson,
last week for president of the United
Safes cannot be looked upon as much
of a surprise. Notwithstanding he has
swept the entire country and carried
forty of the 4S states, receiving the
largest electoral vote ever given any
candidate for president, he did not
receive a majority of the popular
vote, as did Mckinley, Roosevelt and
Taft. Out of a total vote of IA. OOO, :
900 cast in all of the states Mr.. Will
son received, in round numbers 6, 30O,-
900, Roosevelt received 4, 300, 900 and
Taft 3 300, 600, so that Wilson had
!, 300, 900 less than the combined vote
of Taft and Roosevelt. Had Roose-
welt not entered the three cornered
contest Wilson might yet have been
the winner, but the showing would
have been quite different.
In the electoral vote the state is the
unit, and in some of them the result
is so close that the plurality is only
a matter Of a few hundreds.
The election proves what has
seemed apparent for weeks. that with
the democracy united upon one candi-
date and the republican vote divided
between two, the chances were largely
in favor of the democrat winning.
Many Of Col. Roosevelt's most
enthusiastic followers believed that
he could sweep the entire north, east
and west and it is doubtless true
that the possibility of his doing so
caused the republicans in some Sec
tions and in some states, who were
angered at Roosevelt's candidacy, to
vote in large numbers for the demo
cratic candidate. That fact is un-
%qestionably true in Wisconsin, where
Senator LaFollette with his tremend.
u influence over toe voters Of the
state, has been most bitt 4rly opposed
to Roosevelt ever since the time of the
convention.
In this state Wilson'S vot9 was
146. 900. Taft's 1913, 900. and Roosevelt
50, 0OO. and it is now shown that
about 100, 600 Wisconsin voters did
not 60 to the polls.
Ever since the days of Mckinley
the republican party has been so
strong that it has been splitting up
into factions and becoming rent with
internal strife. When it has been
united it has been victorious, but it
is not large enough to carry the coun-
try electorally when split in the
middle.
What might have been, however,
does not matter now. There should
be and there will be no i'll will or
bitterness toward the new president,
who is a mar Of ability and charac-
ter, against whom nothing of conse-
qUence can be said. His party will
be in full control of all branches of
the government and there is no reason
to question his earnest desire to do
that which will be best for the coun-
try as u whole and for all its people.
We should all extend to him our
sincere good will and our best wishes.
