HUGHES, LABOR RECORD.

When Mr.. Gompers, remembering
only that he Is Democrat and forget
ting that he Is a leader Of organized
Hughes Is unlriendy to labor because
he concurred in the unanimous deci
sion In the Danbuly hatters' case. he
ventured on very thin ice. The Chicago
Tribune promptly reminds him that an
honest Judge must apply the law as he
thinks 1t Is. not as he thinks it ought
to be, and asks him to tell those who
look to him for political advice some
thing about the record of Mr.. Hughes
as governor Read what the Legislative
Labor News, the official organ Of the
New York Federation of Labor, said
editorially when Mr. Hughes left the
governors chair at Albany for his
place on the supreme court. Here 1t Is;
"Now that Governor Hughes has re-
tired from politics and assembled to a
place on the highest judicial tribunal
in the world. the fact can be acknowl
edged without hurting anybody's polit-
ical corns that he was the greatest
friend of labor laws that ever occupied
the governors chair at Albany. During
his two terms he has signed fifty six
labor laws, including among them the
best labor laws ever enacted In this or
any state.
HE also urged the enactment Of
labor laws in his messages to the legis-
lature. even going so far as to place
the demand for a labor law In one OF
his messages to an extra session of the
legislature.
"Only 1862 labor laws have been en-
acted in this state since its erection in
1777-in 1873 years. One-third of these.
exceeding In quality all Of the others,
have been enacted and signed during
Governor Hughes term of three years
and nine months"
Let organized labor take to heart
what the Chicago Tribune says on this
point: MIR. Hughes is no demagogue
and no visionary. He Is man of cour-
age and conscience, and il labor can
not confide its cause to his rock bot
tom Anlericanism there is something
wrong with its cause. "-Boston Her

WE GUT BILL CATL|N

w. w. Catlin, Meaning the Elder, and Younger Hss to Explain

Every time w. w. Catiin appeared on the streets yesterday the populaoe inquired what he was doing in Phoe- nix. All of which proves that the populace reads The Republican and believes what appears in the columns of this journal of light and civiliza ton. It stated yesterday morning that W. w. Catlin had gone to Seattle or some other seaport. It therefore appeared when Mir. Catlin presented himself that he was trying to contro vert a statement of The Republican and when one does that in this com munity he is called upon to make an explanation.
 It was brought out that there are two w. w. Catlins, senior and junior. uncle and nephew. The w. W. Catlin who had to explain his presence in the city is the nephew Both ar members of the firm that had the Buick agency in the city and when the agency was sold to the Babbitt- Poison company the nephew remaine'! with the company as manager.

 So today, under what are practic- ally unfavorable conditions, our rail roads are earning more money than at any time in their history. This is bound to bring about results.
 We saw Reading and Norfolk and other properties selling at low prices, because their value is not appreciated. With the appreciation of value will come the appreciation in price. This will follow in others.
 The government today is seeking means to protect and promote our railroads. State legislatures realize that the time has passed for persecu- tion. The speculation of a year ago was based on fancy and fiction The speculation. we believe, that is to come now will be based on facts and on assured future"

 As one banker expressed it, "The Chicago Terminals of Rock Island are worth more than the price the entire stock is selling for" which is probably true.
