cELlSTlC CAMPAIGN

The Smith. Colburn union evangells'
tic campaign began last Sunday AFTER
noon with the formation OF large
chorus of 20 voices. The chorus met
at 3 o'clock for the first rehearsal
and Mr.. Colburn Immediately showed
that he was master IN inc line OF
chorus work. In the evening me
chorus was augmented by seteial
new voices and made tie hall ring
with the stirring songs Of the Alexan-
der song book.
Mr.. Colburn preached short. Dlthy
sermon and sang solo in closing.
Tuesday morning Mr. Charles Cul'
len Smith arrived and took charge OF
the campaign, Mr. Colburn giving his
entire attention to the music The
two men certainly make a stfonf,
( team Mr.. Smith is a very clear,
forceful speaker and his straightfor-
ward talks bristle with pointed Illus
trations and entertaining stories
Having been a Y. NJ. c. A. secretary
for 10 years he is especially interested
in men. to whom his addresses espec'
tally appeal because Of their direct
ness.
Mr. Colburn, WHO is the chM as al
rector, is also composer md sing
writer with some excellen. songs OF
bis own writing tnat he sings with
rvwer. AS chorus leade: oi long
exlel'.,ce he has VOL an ~ 'latle
reputation and those who are able to
spare the time to get the tree tain
ing under him hat the chorus will re-
ceive, are fortunate.
NJ Smith being olso a eoot. singer
the two evangelists render duets TO-
gcther each evening.
With the large chorus, the duets
and solos of Mr.. Smith and Mr.. Col
burn and the interesting addresses
of Mr.. Smith, the revival meetings
being held in the Shaw store build
ing every evening form very inter
esting entertainment we'll worth the
price of admission to a first class

be estimated. Admission, however,
is free. A free will offering is taken
to pay expenses.

PROGRESSIVE REPUBLICANS
TO FORM ORGANIZATION
Under Leadership Of W. T, Sherman
Several Musselshell Republicans
Issue Call for Meeting.

In the shape of little pink poster
several of the republicans of Mussel-

Roosevelt renounced his claim today
to the eight delegates at large to the
Republican national convention elected
for him in Massachusetts yesterday.
He said that he would expect them
to vote for President Taft, taking this
action, he said, because OF the fact
that President Taft carried the state
on the presidential preference vote.
Law Fails to Give Effect to
the Will Of the People
Boston, Mass. May 1.-Massachu-
setts emerged today from her first
presidential preference primary elec-
ton to find that the Republican vot-
ers had expressed Il preference for
the denomination Of President Taft.
This information is correct notwith-
tanding they had been reported as
giving Colonel Roosevelt 36 delegates
to the National convention. Roose-
welt stated that the lift would have no
effect on the other delegates chosen
"for Roosevelt" and that the Oppres-
sion OF the votes for Taft would be
disregarded
The Democratic voters of the state
expressed a preference for Speaker
Champ Clark. although majority Of

GOVERNOR FOSS AFTER THE MILL OWNERS
BY Cheap Labor, Small Wages and
Other Methods Mil Owners Re
duced Earnings Below Standard.

Boston. Mass-Governor Foss sen
a special message to tho Legislature
Friday urging an immediate investi
cation OF the strike in the textile
mills in Lawrence. The goyerno
points out that the strike was NO
wholly due to the fifty-four-hour law
out that unrest prevailed before tba
measure was passed
| Governor Foss, in the message, de
tends his action in sending the militia
10 Lawrence on account of the dis
turbances there. and says:
Not the slightest approach to
anarchy can be tolerated in this com.
monwealth and l shall not hesitate

nand to maintain law and order; but

Iere and | shall perform but the small.
r part Of my duty if failed at this
uncture to recommend a searching
investigation of all the facts relating
0 the strike, including the condition
u the striking operatives"
Commenting on the fact that the
nil employees believe they have other
Grievances besides reduction in
wages due to the new law which
'hortens the working week from Sc
20 81 hours, the message says:
1T is alleged that for years the
employers have pursued the policy
Of bringing into their mills the cheap.
est grade of labor uLtainable in this
Or foreign countries, and by fines or
jther methods have reduced wages
ar below that decent standard which
american citizens should enjoy. If
.hese things are true, their truth
should be established by a public in.
'esugation, and the facts should be
Iven the widest publicity. If not
rue their effective denial is equally
important.
"A further pertinent and independ.
mt consideration is that the industry
n which the strike originated is one
hat has been specially favored by the
arlff laws designed and only Justified
