The man who would build up a good
reputation either for dairy products
or for live stock must deliver that

Although ducks do o appear to be

The following was unanimously
adopted by the Central Trades and

Whereas The American Federation

Therefore be 1t Resolved, That this

who persistently voted with those So
called reactionary elements in our
Congress who would perpetuate our
past methods of armor-plate construc-

Furthermore, such action tends to
