LABOR ORGANIZATIONS

Mr.. Wilson, at the dinner of the
South Carolina Society, March 18th,
1907:
I'VE speak too exclusively Of the
capitalistic class. There is another,
as formidable an enemy to equality
and freedom of opportunity as it is,
and that is the class formed by the
labor organizations and leaders Of
the country-the class representing
only small minority of the laboring
men Of the country, quite as apt to
corrupt and ruin our industries by
their monopoly"
Mr.. Wilson, at the Peoples Forum,
New Rochelle, n. y, February 18th,
1905:
"The objections l have to labor
unions is that they drag the highest
al to the level of the lowest.
must deinur with the labor unions
when they say you must award the
dull the same as you award those
with special gifts"
President Wilson at the Dedication
of the American Federation of Labor
Bldg. July 4th, 1916:
"Mr. Gompers spoke just now and
| dare say truthfully, as if it were
somewhat matter Of surprise thai
the President of the United States
should recognize the great Labor
movement by his presence on an oc.
casion like this. l am sorry for any
President of the United States who
does not recognize every great move
ment in the nation. The minute he
stops recognizing it he becomes {

could overlook this movement, car
not imagine, Il movement so fraught
with all sorts of things that appea
to the reason and to the heart"

A DEMOCRATIC GOVERNOR ON
A. DEMOCRATIC PRESIDENT

About three weeks ago at the DEM
ocratic primary election in Texas,
former Governor Oscar b. Colquitt
defeated Senator Culberson by about
81, 900 votes. Governor Colquitt
made his campaign on the ground
that Wilson has been the greatest
failure in our history. Governor Col
quit gave out an interview in which
he said:
"The Wilson administration has
been the greatest failure in the his
tory of the Presidency. The south
is a land flowing with milk and
honey. 1t has made one of its big
gest and best crops in its history,
and yet because OF the utter incom-
potency of the government its busi-
ness is Frustrated, its credit impair
ed, and thousands OF its people are
starving"
This came, mark you, from a life
long Democrat seeking the Demo-
cratic nomination for United States
Senator. Governor Colouitt even goes
further and bitterly denounces the
Presidents Mexican policy and the
wholesale destruction Of American
lives and loss Of property. For the
first time in it's history men are
talking about Texas going Republic
can; for the first time in It's history
Democratic administration at
Washington is fighting tooth and
nail to save itself from defeat in the
strongest Democratic state in the ma
tion. 1t is said on most reliable au-
thority that 30 per cent Of the Dem
ocrats living in western and south
western Texas viii for the first time
in their history vote a Republican
ticket.
Another great Democrat, Col
George Harvey. in the August issue
of the North American Review, de-
nounces Wilson for his reputation
of his party platform, and especially
in its demand for the protection of
American lives and American proper
ty, and Colonel Harvey points out
that Wilson has totally failed. And
be it remembered that Colonel Har-
vey made MIR. Wilson President. Col
onel Harvey is out for Hughes red
hot and predicts his election.

GREAT WAR GAME
NOW BEING STAGED
BY THE u. S. NAVY
Fully IT Ships of All Sizes
and Glasses Taking Part in
Contest of ''RedS" and
"BIueS'' Off Atlantic Coast


WASHINGTON. Aug. ga strong
Red" enemy fleet conveying thirty
transports bearing invading army ar
rived within six hundred miles of the
Atlantic coast at o'clock this morn
ing, and the greatest war game ever
undertaken by the navy department be-
gan.
Within an hour the twelve battleships
and the Blue defending fleet were
speeding to sea behind far-flung line
of destroyers and scouts, intent upon
locating and destroying the enemy.
Admiral Mayo commands the Red"
fleet of the fifteen battleships, six
swift destroyers. representing the scout
Ing line and six other navy craft, repre-
senting the fleet of transports and store
ships. Rear Admiral Helm has II de-
stroyers and seven light cruisers as his
scouting screen and close to shore are
fifteen submarines as a last line of ma
val defense.
KNIGHT IS UMPIRE.
Rear Admiral Knight, president of the
Navy War college, aboard the super
dreadnaught Pennsylvania, will umpire
the game in which n fighting craft are
engaged. The reserve battleships form
ing the Blue fleet main line are man.
ned by naval militiamen and civilian
volunteers.
Admiral Mayo has until September /
TO evade the Blue" fleet and effect a
landing at any point between Cape Hat
teras and PASSPORT, Me- The sphere
of action extends 600 miles to sea be-
tween those points. r
For the purposes of the game the
navy department was placed on a war
footing this morning. Officers were as
signed at each bureau to stand watch
night and day Watch will also be
maintained at all Atlantic coast navy
yards, and at the navy's fcommunica-
ton stations. In the office of Rear Ad-
miral Benson, chief. of operations, a
great chart of the war zone was set up
and as reports came from Rear Admiral
Helm or from any other source showing
the position of the ships, navigators laid
off the positions. Any information as
to the whereabouts of the invading fleet
which may come from commercial ves-
sells to any point along the shore will
be promptly forwarded to Rear Admiral
Helm.
STRICT CENSORSHIP.
A strict censorship will be exercised
over reports from the defending fleet,
however, as Admiral Mayo has been
authorized to ask passing ships for
newspapers or any other information
they may have as to the disposition of
the defending forces.
For that reason it is proposed not
to make public the reports of construc-
tive disasters Rear Admiral Helm will
send back from time to time to test
out the organization of the navy depart
ment's various bureaus and at the navy
yards.
Far at sea, Rear Admiral knight is
receiving reports from both COM
manders and plotting the game on
charts. 1t is Admiral Mayo's object
either to decoy the defending fleet out
of his way, while his transports slip
by to land the invading army, or to
draw on an engagement with such units
Of Rear Admiral Helms command as
will insure the gripping of the defend
ing forces.
