Atlantic City, June 9.-Unqualifiel
endorsement is given the peace trea-
ty and league Of nations covenant by
the executive committee of the
American Federation Of Labor, in its
report submitted to the annual fed
GRAFTON convention here today.
The basic principles of lasting
peace are in the treaty the report
says, and adds that with peace SO
built, the world has in truth been
made safe for democracy"
"The covenant of the league of ma
tons" the report continues, must
meet the unqualified approval and
support Of the American working peo-
pie. 1t is not a perfect document
and perfection is not claimed for it.
It does, however, mark the nearest
approach to perfection that has ever
been reported in the international
affairs of mankind
I'VE declare our Endorsement &,
the triumphs Of freedom and justice
and democracy as exemplified in the
covenant of the league of nations"
Discussing the peace treaty as
whole, the report states:
The introduction of nine specific
labor clauses in the peace treaty
that the 'well-being, physical and NOR
al, of the Industrial wage earners is
of supreme international import
ance.:
No such declaration has ever been
written into International law
through any previous treaty of peace
and it is due to the efforts of Amer
ican labor more than to any other
single factor that it appears in tn s
emphatic form in the present treaty.
The report reviews the pan-Amer-
ican labor conference held at Lare 10,
Texas, in November A long recon
struction program, called the most
complete and most constructive yet
made in this country" is set forth
in the report Measures making up
the program are:
Democracy in Industry.
The report declares it essential
that workers should insist upon their
rights to organize into trade unions;
that legislation should be passed max
ing it criminal offense for employ
ers to attempt to interfere with the
rights.
Unemployment.

GENERAL NEWS

Records Of baseball world series Of
past years show that although the
American League entries have been
victorious in nine Of the fourteen SER
les, the games have been so closely
contested that the National Leaguers
are only three behind their younger
opponents in the number of runs SCOT
ed and six in games won. So-valled
world series were played as far back
as 1884, but it was not until 1905 that
the National Commission took charge
Of the series and promulgated rules
governing it. Since that year the
winning clubs in each Of the major
leagues have met in October in sew
en-game series to decide the champion
ship, although this year the series is
heightened to nine games. During
the last fourteen years seventy-eight
games have been played-an average
Of five and half per series-includ-
ing two ties. In winning their nine
series the American League teams
have triumphed in forty-one games,

His parents are now living over on

bear. At the third shot he planted a
bullet from his 25-35 right over the

With his mothers help he loaded it
on his saddle horse and took it home,
where he removed the skin in regular
hunter style. The next day while out
riding 9th his sister, who is a little
older than himself, he bagged an old
bear-a big one. 1t was some job
for the two children to load this one.
They attached rope to the bear and
started to pub it up the hill to a large
rock by the horn of the saddle. When
ne horse settled down to pull the cinch
broke. They manufactured another
cinch out of bride reins, and finally
got the bear on the rock. Then they

BIG FIRE IN ORLEANS.
Big Barn and All Outbuildings on
Claude Morton Farm Burned
Saturday Evening
Big Barn and Livestock Burn in
Button Twp. Wednesday After
noon. Lightning Stuns
Several People

A very disastrous fire occurred in
Orleans township Saturday evening
about 1880, at the farm home of Ex-
Supervisor Claude Morton. The fam
lily had gone to Cresco that evening,
and nobody, was at home. A young
fellow passing the farm observed
smoke coming out of the cupola on
the barn, and in moment flames
burst out. He gave the alarm as
soon as possible and a large crowd
of neighbors gathered. Fred Brown
organized crew and the contents
of the residence was removed, but
luckily the house did not catch on
fire.
The barn, a new one and modern
in every respect, was burned TO the
ground. 1t was full of hay. No ami
mails were in the barn, as the horses
were turned out before the folks
went to Cresco. All the harness were
burned, and many other things in
the Darn.
Four or five big stacks of grain
were destroyed. A big corn crib was
partially destroyed, the roof being
burned considerably. The loss is a
heavy one, and we understand will
be in the neighborhood of $4,000 or
$1,000.
A big barn on the Mrs. John liver
son farm in Bluffton township was
burned last Wednesday, besides
three calves and eight set of harness.
The barn was struck by lightning.
Lightning also struck the Fred
LANCE house in Button that day.
Mrs. LANCE was out fixing the caves
trough when she was stunned by the
lightning. s~
Pete Hovey of Orleans Twp. was
also stunned by lightning during
Wednesdays storm.
