A dispatch from Washington says
that Samuel Gompers, president of the
American Federation of Labor, closed
his two days testimony before the
house lobby committee Thursday
night with a dramatic warning to the
manufacturers Of the country, a de-
tense of the legislative activities of
the federation ana 8, bitter attack up
on the Sherman antitrust law as ap-
piled to labor unions. "
Gompers spoke at the end of a day

in the United States, which has
burst into industrial life there is no
feeling between employer and employee
such as is found in European nations
where Industrial life has to SOM ex-

product of centuries. In Europe, he
said, this transition had been accom-
panied by a, deeper feeling for the en-

tries were decades ahead of the Unit

their conference with Governor Fer
ris Wednesday with reference to the
strike situation in the Michigan cop
per mining district Pres. Charles H.
Meyer of the Western Federation Of
Miners and Clarence S.. Darrow, act
ing as counsel for the strikers, agreed
to set forth. in writing their demands
in case arbitration of the labor diff
flculties is attempted. Their stipula-
tons were received today.
They suggest that the mine opera
tors select two members of the ar
bitration board, the strikers select
two members and that Governor Fer
ris act as the fifth man. If the gov
ernor should be unable to- sit as a
member of the board. he is requested
to personally select his substitute.
The strikers want the men to have
the right to organize and submit all
their differences to an arbitration
board. Pending "a disposition of the
case, they want the former employees
taken back under the old terms, and
if the arbitration board increases the
wage scale, the men are to receive the
benefit thereof from the time of their
returncto work. H.
Should arbitration fail, Attorney
barrow again requests that the gov

life will come to-" .
The manufacturers of. this country,
he added, opposed all acts of legisla-
ton designed to protect the working
men. Sag
Reviewing the court decisions
against labor organizations under the
Sherman act, the witness said:
THE federation exists at the suf-
france of an administration. Under
the Sherman law and the procedure Of
the courts the normal activities of the
association in the exercise Of power
no more than the individual exercises
every day the power to withhold pat
ronage, are restrained and threefold
damages can be claimed and obtained.
1T seems to me the law is a bit
askew, or otherwise it would not per-
nit such a thing" he added with a
shake of the head. -.
The witness testified that he had
recommended to the house committee
on committees the appointment of
either Representative Lewis of Mary
land or Representative Buchanan of
Illinois as chairman of the labor com
mittee. Lewis was appointed, he said,
although not the highest man on the
list of democratic members.
He was asked at length about Mar
tin M. MulhalPs effort to get the fed
GRAFTON to print his now-famous let
tiers and about his relations with Rep
resentative McDermott, one of the
men involved by Mulhall. Gompers
said McDermott had been most insist
ent that he take up the Mulhall let
ters, but feared at that time that Null
halls supposed repentance was not
genuine, n only a use to get the
federation in the clutches of the man
ufacturers' association. .
Mr.. Gompers added to testimony by
stating that the federation spent about
$1,000 in it's campaign against the re-
election of former Rep. Charles E. Lit
tlefield of Maine in 1906. The lobby
ing. done by the federation he thought
was justified and in the open.

ers. When the injured nan or woman
did obtain a verdict, it was split. on
contingent fee with the attorney, the
costs come out Of the victims share
and a small portion went to relieve
the suffering and distress of the vic
tim. .E.,"..
The worker has not. been victimized
in all cases. Perhaps in most of the
cases he has been dealt with fairly,
so far as the system was fair. The
lawyer took a risk in preparing a case
for trial and pushing it to conclusion,
sometimes in the supreme court. He
had no certainty that he would get
anything out of it. The system die
tated that he should receive half Of
the verdict If he won his case. Some
contingent fee agreements were on the
basis of 33 1-3 per cent, out the Usual
agreement was for SO. per cent.
Some lawyers shared the costs with
the plaintiff, but very few. Usually
the injured man bore all of the cost
of the case. It can easily be imagined
that When the amount the jury
thought proper compensation for the
injury was divided in halves, and the
cost and disbursements deducted from
the half to go to the plaintiff, the
amount remaining was not adequate
compensation. b.. .,

humorous features. Trlbv lives in
