CHICAGO TEACHERS
UNION WINS POINT
Court Makes Boards Lawyers
Agree Not to Exact Pledge
to Renounce Body.

CHICAGO, Sept. 24-The Chicago
Teachers federation won. the first
skirmish in their fight against the
board Of education's rule prohibiting
membership in the organization, in
Judge John M. O'Conner's court last
week. Judge O'Connor exacted an
agreement from the boards lawyers
that no amore teachers Will be. asked
to sign pledges that, they are hot now
nor will later become members of the
federation
The agreement is to hold good: un-
til the court rules on the; fedora
TONS suit for an injunction to dis
solve the rule. ::
The senate investigating commit
tee lodged in all directions to keep
from finding some real facts about the
federation, and only escaped death
by a sine die adjournment because
the chairman refused to call the
committee to order so that such a
motion could be put.

ATTORNEY APPROVES
H|LLYER'S REMOVAL
Standard Oil Judge Rebuked by
All Self Respecting Citizens
Of Colorado.

DENVER, Sept. 24.-W. H. Scho-
field, attorney of this city, has writ
ten an open letter to Speaker Stewart,
Of the state house of representatives,
because Of the latter's protest against
the removal Of Judge Hillyer by the
supreme court from further consid-
Grafton of miners trials.
The speaker also favors a law that
will limit the power of the court to
act in cases where prejudice is al
legged. Attorney Schcfield upholds the
supreme court and says:
AT the outset let me say that 7
hold no brief for the miners Of this
state in their controversy with the
operators. Whether either or both
have been guilty of acts of violence
is not material here. But when either
side demands justice CT our courts
they should have it.
what object can any man or set
Of men have in wanting any particu-
lar judge to sit in any particular case
or cases? If the man or men seek JUS
tice the fact that a judge is disquali-
fled Dor being prejudiced cannot hurt
their case. The judge should not be
interested in sitting in any particular
case, for his salary goes on at the
same rate, whether he tries one case
or a thousand, just as yours would.
Mr.. Stewart, were you absent from a.
session Of the house.
"But you say, that under the rule
announced, the Judges of the state
are made subject to aspersions upon
their character. The statute does not
so read. It uses the term prejudice
and that is the term the court con-
strues in it's opinion

IGNORANCE PREVAILS;
ROCKEFELLER BLAMED

OAKLAND, Cal, Sept. 24.-By i'm
porting illiterate workmen during the
Colorado mining strikes, Rockefeller
has increased Ignorance in that state,
is the charge of Mrs. Mary Bradford,
state superintendent of Colorado's
public schools.
The educator also charged that the
policy of importing these workers is
responsible: for nearly all of Colo
radios industrial difficulties. She
said:
ut is to the offices at 26 Wall
street that nearly all of Colorado's
industrial difficulties can be traced.
It is not our peoples fault, but that
of the absentee capitalists, who have
shipped in foreign labor from Europe
that the educational standards of
Colorado have suffered.
For no other reason except that
illiterate foreigners have been ship
ped in by the thousands by outside
capitalists to work the mines in their
interests, the whole average of COL
orado's literacy has been lowered in
the last dozen years.
twelve years ago Colorado stood
second on the list of states in liter
acy. Today we are seventh, yet the
schools have increased steadily in ef-
ficiency and numbers.
1T has been absolutely impossible
for the schools to absorb this great
influx Of foreigners with no knowl-
edge Of our language and habits.
EVERY time a. shipment Of this
type Of labor comes-sometimes there
are as many as 1000 or 3,000-the
average is pulled down and Colorado
gets another black eye, for which it
is no way to blame.
This is what is making our edu-
cational problem one of the hardest a
department has ever had to cope
with" :" .>..-v.

Rex and Lyric Manager Will Not
Settle Dispute With 0p-
orators Union.

Thomas F'urniss has again shown
that he does not want in his employ
men who have passed competent ex-
aminations as operators Of his mo-
ton picture machipes.
The effort to bring about confer
ence between the officials of the
State Federation of Labor and Mr..
Furniss proved futile as he absolute
ly refuses to do anything further to
have the dispute properly adjusted.
Honor to Operators.
It is to the credit of the members
of the operators and musicians I'M
ions that there has been no break in
the ranks. The strike has been on
for almost a year and there is no evil
dence at this time that settlement
will ever be made.
Credit is also due to a large part
of the public who have not patron
lied either the Rex or Lyric thea
tres since the strike was called.
Mr.. Furniss has always boosted Of
his fairness" towards his employees
yet he shows his utter contempt for
those who are strong enough to look
