men who are prominent in the labor
movement of Wisconsin,.
Among the fraternal delegates it is
probable that eight or nine Of the
neighboring states will send repre-
sentatives. Among those who are ex-
pected is S. s. Mcdonald, president

TRINIDAD, Col, July 16.-John r.
Lawson, labor leader, convicted of
murder in connection with strike dis
orders. was denied a new trial by
Judge CRANKY Hillyer in the district
court here late Monday.
Lawson was sentenced to life at
hard labor in the state penitentiary.
When asked by the court If he had
anything to say before judgment was
pronounced, Lawson read a lengthy
statement in which he maintained his
innocence, charged he was the victim
of a corporation controlled prosecu-
ton. and alleged that his trial was a
"travesty on JUSTICE
Thirty Days Delay.
Counsel for Lawson asked for and
was granted so days to file a bill Of
exceptions and 80 days stay Of execu-
ton. Lawson was denied bail and
was taken to the county Jail.
Lawson was convicted May. 3, Of

Questions Courts Power.
First of ALL in the, name Of the
! courts, of my country, which respect
| I protest against your right or power
| to pass Judgment against me. It is
undenied in this case that you were
appointed to the bench this spring for
the trial of myself and my associates,
fresh, fresh from the employment OF
the very coal operators of Colorado
and the country, including the Rookie
fellers, who have pressed and engi-
neered these prosecutions.
"Yourself a coal company attorney
engaged to assist as a practicing law
yer in the trial of cases arising like
mine out of the industrial disturb
ances of 1913 and 1914, you had no
right when challenged to sit. as a
| trial judge in the case Of any striking
| miner. ..
"You were so deeply prejudiced
against me that my case was trav-
esty of justice from the start. Today
the supreme court Of Colorado in
Denver is reviewing your conduct and
yet you refuse to wait another "a
hours for the guidance of that courts
decision. IT,.

and RESOLUTIONS will be adopted ex-
pressing the attitude Of the organized

American institutions. It is more

the convention will express itself will
be favoring woman's suffrage and op-

undoubtedly be called upon again to

Labor: has many things to be con-

which is the grave unemployed situa-
