LABOR VOTE NOT DELIVERABLE.
This is the Outstanding Fact Which
Political Philosophers Deduce From
the Defeat in Maine Of Repre-
sentative McGiIlicuddy.

From among the numerous lessons
or conclusions which The political phi
Iosophers dim traW from tile Maine
election one lesson or conclusion
stands out more sharply defined than
any other. II ianpS at yan.
Tho labor vote, FOR the sake Of
which the r%oltroon Congress tarred
and feathered itself with its "
hands only n dozen days ago, is not
deliverable by the traders who pre-
tended TO sell ii.
This salient fact of the election is
ond Congress district. There are few
places within the confines Of u
republic where labor Is relatively
stronger than In the city of Lewiston.
the home city Of Representative Nc
G%illicuddy, and he has made a spe-
cialty OF 1t in his " political prac-
tice. In the Second Maine, II any
where, would there be indications OF
any return. in the shape OF votes, for
the surrender of Congress to the four
Brotherhoods. After a campaign
which might almost be called desper-
ate in it's effort to save McGillicuddy
and one Democratic seat In the House
from the Republican onset, Mr.. Nc
Gillicuddy was defeated by an ad-
verse plurality of nearly 400. whereas
he had been elected to the Sixty
second Congress by a plurality OF 1889
and to the Sixty-third by 1.2S1.

NOT AN EIGHT-HOUR LAW.
Recent Hold-Up Legislation Does
Not Shorten Workday a
Minute.

AS a matter of fact. 1t is not
an eight hour law at all. 1t does
not curtail the trainmen'S work
day by a single minute. If an
engineer has been receiving 50
for working ten hours a day, this
law will raise his pay to 500;
but 1t will not shorten his work
day even the tenth part of a sec
ond. This is no more like the
true eight-hour principle than
chalk Is like cheese.
The reason why people call
this an eight-hour law is be-
cause it says that in the case
of railroad trainmen they shall
get their days pay for the first
eight hours work. and all the
rest is to be considered over
time.
DO not tell me that this strike
could not have been called off or
postponed If President Wilson
had shown that he meant bust
ness. | do not for one minute
believe that those four brother
hood leaders started the blaze
going without knowing how to
put it out. One of them adj
