FEDERATION OF LABOR.
Congressman Glass Tells Body There
is no Doubt Labor Should Or
@aniZe.

Danville, Va, June 4.-The feature
of the opening session of the eigh-
teenth annual convention Of the Viz
ginia Federation of Labor, which
opened yesterday morning with about
$50 delegates present, including sew
eral women delegates, was the adj
dress of Representative Carter Glass
of the Sixth District.
Addresses of welcome were made by
Mayor Harry Wooding and by VIM. A.
Norman, on behalf of the city and
the commercial interests. President
e. C. Davidson responded briefly to
the welcoming speeches.
Rev. J. T. Mastin, secretary OF the
State Board Of Charities, and Cor
rections also addressed the convention,
stressing the work of the charities
conference in the matter of dealing
with inebriates and with youthful
prisoners by segregation and employ
ment on industrial farms.
Congressman Glass told his hear
ers by way of showing his apprecl-
alton of the invitation to address them
that he had had to leave his son three
hours after the youth had undergone
a surgical operation, and had 70 can
eel an engagement with the President
of the United States to be present. he
EXPRESSED regret thar his preoccupa-
ton by government matters of imme-
date Importance had precluded his
preparation of his speech, but he as
sured the Federation that there could
be ~ question in the minds OF
thoughtful people that labor should
organize.
The laboring men of the country
were becoming wiser every year IN
dealing with the questions that most
concern them, and he believed the
final solution of The questions arts
ing between capital and labor would
be worked out, not by capitalists, but
bv the laboring men themselves.
Turning a moment to the tariff
question and taxation, he avowed his
conviction that laboring men do not
get any protection from the high tar
iff, but what protection they do ge Is
from organized labor.Th reason the
protected interests are raising the
wages of employees is not because OF
the protective tariff or that they can
better afford to pay more. 1t IS ratn-
err because the leaders of organized
labor are demanding higher wage.
Mr.. Glass expressed his conviction
that the influence of pauper labor was
factor in the wage question and de-
clared himself earnestly in favor OF
the pending immigration bill, which,
though twice defeated, he believed
would be passed at the pending sss-
sion. eve are going to carry this
bill the next time it comes before the
House." he said.

DUEL KILLS FAMILY.
Husband, Wife and Child Found
Dead.

Greeley, Colo, June I'm a duel be-
tween Robert Stanley and his wife,
which occurred at their ranch home,
sixty miles northeast of here. the en-
tire Stanley family was killed, accord
ing to information telephoned to the
coroner by Charles Scott, neighbor. The
body of the young daughter of the
family was found by the side of her
father. Reviewers were found lying at
the sides of husband and wife.
In the body of the girl were two bull
let wounds of the caliber of the revol-
yer found near the mother. leading to
the belief that the mother herself shot
the girl rather than have her remain
unprotected in the world
The bodies were found lying upon
the floor of a bed room in the home
when Scott went to the Stanley ranch
on visit. AT first he thought the ia mily
had been poisoned and he tried to re-
vive the husband. Then he saw the bull
let wounds Investigation assured him
the family had been wiped out. He
FASTENED to Grover and telephoned to
Greeley for the coroner, who left here
in an automobile.
According to reports, the Stanleys
were a young couple and the daughter
was a baby No reason which might
have provoked the duel can be given
by persons who knew them. Some of
the neighbors believe the family was
murdered by an onutsider and that the
revolvers were placed as blinds.

BISHOP IN STEERACE,
Says Place for Clergyman Is With
Common People.

dignitary was a steerage passenger on
the steamer Caronia, which arrived
from Liverpool. He was Right Rev.
Charles H. Brent, Episcopal bishop IN

joyed the trip immensely.
Il came in the steerage.'' the bishop
said. because I believe the place for
a clergyman is with the common pep
pie. There I rubbed shoulders with the
immigrants, who some day make citi-
zens and if these are a sample of all
that come, then America has reason to
be proud of her adopted children. Those
on board the Caronia were mostly from
Great Britain and Scandinavia and
they were clean and wholesome ioJ
strong and vigorous. I ate the same
and lived with them and feel better
