to Supreme Court.

WASHINGTON. June A.-Samuel Com
pers. Frank Morrison and John Mitchell.
the labor leaders. were today held guilty
Of contempt of court by the supreme
court of the District Of Columbia. in con-
nection with courts Injunction In the
Bucks Stove and Range boycott case.
They win attempt to appeal again to the
supreme court Of the United States. which
reversed their former conviction.
Justice Wright sentenced Gompers to
one year, the same as upon his previous
conviction, and sentenced Morrison to six
months. John Mitchell was not present
and sentence upon him. was deferred. His
first sentence was six months.
Justice Daniel Thew Wright announced
the decision of the court. 1t covered
seventy-two closely typewriter pages and
took about two hours to read.
Dondsmen ON Hand.
Bondsmen were on hand and all attor-
neys for the labor men gave notice of
an intention to file an appeal to have
the supreme court review the Judgment.
In its previous review of the case the
supreme court reversed the conviction on
the ground that the contempt proceedings
had been improperly instituted. New pro-
ceedlngs We're at once begun.
The charge was that the three men. as
officers of the American Federation Of
Labor, through the organizations's publi-
cation had disregarded Justice Gould's in
junction against the publication Of Bucks
Stove and Range companys name In Its
| boycott list
After Gompers had been sentenced he
attacked the decision, declaring that while
Justice Wright lives in our time. his
decision and sentences disclose a mental
conception of more than two centuries
ago, when the workman was either a
slave or a serf.
Information has just come to me that
the decision was completed more than u
month ago. but withheld until after the
close Of the Chicago republican national
convention. II true the inference is OBJ
vious."

Lincoln Man Declares Action on
Contests Was Not Biased.
(From a Staff Correspondent
LINCOLN, June A.-(special.)-S. H.
Burnham Of this city and we'll known
republican all over the state gives his
opinion of the proceedings of the repub-
lican national convention as he saw it
in the following:
Il think that every man who voted on
the contests waged before the conven-
ton did so without considering whether
or not Taft or Roosevelt delegates were
concerned. 1t is my opinion, further
that the delegates voted according to
the dictates of their conscience,
Mr.. Burnham declared that In the
Washington cases, for instance, it de-
veloped that at the time the state con.
vention was held the Roosevelt men got
up and proceeded to bolt before a test
vote had revealed their true strength
Naturally. the Taft men. left in undis
puted control went ahead and elected
their delegates to the national conven-
tion and transacted their business. After

This Is what State Senator Patrick Sui

Roosevelt Against Field.
There was no issue except Roosevelt
against the field of candidates." said Mr..
Sullivan, in discussing the great fight.
When the fight grew sosbitter. he said
the Wyoming delegates, although in
structed for Taft, began to believe II
would be better to agree on a third can
didate, but this could not be done, for
his delegates. This, he feels. showed
plainly tnat it was not so much prin-

colonel was fighting for
THE general opinion of the delegates
now is that the proposed third party will
die" said Senator Sullivan. He pointed
out that many of the men who were
following Roosevelt were men of national
Importance and that these men could
not afford to throw away their political
future by following the leadership of a
man who must eventually lead them to
ruin. He said there was no issue at
present great enough to divide the party
and give birth to new party that would
last. THE populists," he said, had a
better cause than the proposed Roose-
welt party has, and they did not last"

In the lest thirty years the popula-

the increase in population
The v9lre Of farm products iu th'

the corn .r1n off fHo south Boo ''''

true that the corn crop OF tho country
