According to press reports, President
Samuel Gompers of the American

plead the cause of President Wilson

Gompes will offer as evidence in
support of his attack the judicial at

becoming Improbable under its pres

determined to reduce it to a minimum.

because the country grows more and

Labor will have its own jury ser.

merits of the two candidates for the

SORVER|||'Y Of
LAKE MADE

Prof. E. F. Chandler, head of the
department of Civil Engineering at
the State University of North Dakota
at Grand Forks, has returned from
the region Of Devils Lake, where he
has completed a survey in the interest
of the biological department of the
University.
Prof. Chandler has discovered some
interesting phenomena in rega. to
the lake region during his examina-
ton. Perhaps the most startling on
made is that the eastern bay of the
lake, which some years ago was cut
off from the main body of water, is 1t
present one foot and ten inches below
the main body of the lake. The rea-
son for this difference is believed to
be due to the fact that the small lake
is fed by less springs and tributaries
than is the main lake.
The discovery of Prof. Chandler
comes as a great surprise to Il large
number of inhabitants of the lake re-
gion and others interested in the to-
Biography of the country as it is not
generally believed that the differen,,
in the levels of the two bodies was so
great. In fact, until very recently, It
was believed by some people that the
east lake was higher than the big
lake, and the idea of digging a canal
through to the east section was adj
vised so that the main lake may be
filled.
Prof. Chandler in measuring the
present levels Of the lake, finds that
the water has dropped Is feet since
1888, although at present the lake is
more than a foot higher than it was a
year ago, on account of the heavy
rains of the spring. The period from
1888 to 1890 was one in which the lake
went down the most, more than

subversive of the just rights of labor,
it should be borne in mind by every
laboring man in this country that Mr..
Hughes while Associate Justice of the
United States Supreme Court was
performing his sworn duties in inter-
preting Federal statutes as presented
before his Court. For the passage OF
those statutes he was in no wise re-
sponsible. 1t was his sole function to
determine their legal application to
the cases at bar to the best of his
ability. To have shown favoritism
to either side would have been a cow
ardly and criminal violation of his
oath of office. The attitude of Mr..
Hughes while on the Federal Bench,
as of all members Of that august
tribunal was, and should be
"The cold neutrality of an impair
tial. judge"
"Any deviation from that position
would subject the highest court in tile
land, and rightly so, to the suspicion
of all classes and sections of the
country. Failure on the part of
Supreme Court Judges to interpret
statutory legislation without fear "
favor would render that bulwark of
our constitutional liberties a hot
house for the propagation of class
control and destroy our Republican
form of government. For this rea-
son President Gompers' attack on Mr..
Hughes for his holding in the Dan
bury Hatters' case will make no ap-
peal to the intelligent laboring men,
union or non-union.
"On the other hand, we have as a
matter of record, the baccalaureate
sermon of Woodrow Wilson,, delivered
to the students of Princeton Univer-
sity, June IA, 1909. At that time Mr..
Wilson was not a candidate for the
Presidency. He had no political axe
to grind. He felt at liberty to speak
freely the thoughts that were in his
mind. He was addressing several
hundred young men who we're going
out into the world, and whose
fessor Wilson in the class room.
Everyone of those young men left his
alma mater with these words ring
ing in his ears:
You know what the usual stand
ard of the employee is in our day. It
is to give as little as he may for his
wages. Labor is standardized by the
!traeds-unions, and this is the stand
ard to which it is made to conform.
No one is suffered to do more than
the average workman can do. In
some trades and handicrafts no one is
suffered to do more than the least
skillful of his fellows can do within
the hours allotted to a days labor,
and no one may work out of hours at
all or volunteer anything Beyond the
minimum. I need not point out how
Economically disastrous such a regula-
ton of labor is. 1t is SO improbable
to the employer that in some trades
it will presently not be worth his
while to attempt anything at all. He
had better stop altogether than oper-
ate at IN inevitable and invAiable

ing the seven years. From 1900 the
water remained at a standstill for q
number of years and then began %
decrease gradually again as the dry
years followed one another. Last
spring being an exceptionally wet
season the lake realized much benefit
from the surplus moisture.

pledge was exacted from each to wear
the red, white and blue ribbon.
The Stars and Stripes then were
pinned on each agitator as he was sent
out of the court room.

For Visible Government.
Mr.. Hughes declared himself op
posed to invisible government.
II want, he said, Visible govern
ment, not only by those elected by the
people, but by those appointees Of
elected officials, who represent the in
telligence and the talent of the nation.
We are entitled to that"
In his address to business men tf
San Francisco at the Commercial club,
Mr.. Hughes spoke in part as foll,1s:
eve come to a constructive period
in which America must look forward
with greater confidence in the cou vi
ness Of our life than she has hitherto
had. We have had an abundant s3:.
gerry. Nobody can live by surgery
alone, however necessary it may be.
We have got to have hygienic treat

REFUSE TO SERVE.
Union walters refused to serve a
luncheon given to Mr.. Hughes at the
San Francisco Commercial club, be-
cause the club exhibits in it's window
an open shop card, as part of a fight
being made here by the Chamber of
Commerce upon the closed shop.
One of the large downtown open
shop cafes sent its entire crew to the
relief Of the Hughes luncheon.
