Gently made him defendant in a &c..

Kahlbrenner Of Marietta. It followed
a stirring article in a Marietta paper,
signed by MI. Heckert, in which he
aired his views about certain fellow
citizens that he did not believe we're
doing their part for their country. The

Case of Victor L. Berger.-1n the
preliminary skirmish bearing on the
right of Victor L. Berger, Of Milwau-
kee, to sit in the house Of representa-
tives in view Of his conviction OF the
espionage act, two outstanding facts
developed Wednesday indicating tha'
the hearing might continue for months
At the outset Chairman Dallinger
of the special elections committee
charged with the investigation, an
nounced that Mr.. Berger was to have
a fair, full and impartial trial, even
if that meant hearing all evidence
presented and excluded from his trial
before Federal Judge Landis at Chi
cago. The chairman explained that
no limit would be put on the proceed
inSs.
Closely following this declaration OF
the committees position, Henry r.
Cochems, of Milwaukee, counsel Tor
Berger, who already had intimated
that the fight in his clients behait
would be long and bitter, boldly, chal-
lenged the right of the committee or
even the house, to deny the seat @ aIter
election by the people OF the f1fth WIS
consin district.
For two hours or more, Mr.. Ccch-
ems argued in support of this conten-
tion. without drawing from the COM
mittee an inference as to its attitude
on that point. Harry l.. McLogan,
counsel for Joseph P. Carney, Demo-
crat, who ran second to Berger In the
November election, and who Is con-
testing the election on ground OF the
latter's alleged disability will reply
tomorrow.
Mr.. Berger sat with his lawyer
throughout the hearing. Some OF his
friends were present but the proceed
ings were lacking in interest to the
few spectators.

to refer to Representative Blanton OF
Texas as "bleating Blanton" for re-
marks the congressman made recently
about labor.
"As time goes on" said Mr.. Comp
ers, "Blanton will be eliminated or left
at home as others Of his stamp have
been" He then sketched the history
of the department of labor and added:
| There seems to be a policy to
starve this department out OF existence
or deny it money to the point where its
efficiency and value to the working
people of the country will be material
ly reduced"
Next to the war and navy depart
ments, he said, the department Of Ia
Dor was most important during the
war, and he predicted that it would be-
come more vital to the nation. let
me announce, too" he added, that the
American Federation Of LaborS will
fight any and all efforts to curb, ,sweak-
en- or destroy the department"
Resolutions authorizing the granting
of a charter by the federation to Or
ganizations Of city policemen were
adopted.
Resolutions dealing with petitions OF
negro representatives were then pre-
sented. The committee recommended
that it did not concur with the request
of the negroes for a separate interna-
tional charter, but that 1t recommend
ed the convention adopt resolution
providing for the organization of negro
laborers, and that where they could
not obtain admission to unions already
existing, special charters for negro
unions be issued by the federation.
The recommendation Of the commit
tee reporting on the negro resolution
was adopted with one dissenting vote
after lengthy debate.
The convention then adjourned un-
til Monday. Tomorrow most OF the
delegates will participate in the dem
onstration in Washington against war
time prohibition.

farmers in the state. This commence

to Ex-Governor D. c. Hayward of Col

done valuable work in reclaiming old
rice lands and utilizing them for gen.

ton Of the reclaimed rice fields at
White Hall, as many as forty-five differ

Doe. Not Anticipate Ratification


Governors of various states have been
requested by the New York World to
give their opinion Of the sentiment in
their respective states upon the recent
ly enacted suffrage amendment by con-
gress. Three -fourths of the states
must ratify the proposed amendment
which has just passed congress. Gov
ernor Cooper of South Carolina gave
this opinion to the World: THE gen.
eral assembly of South Carolina did
not discuss equal suffrage at its 1919
session. There is no available straw
vote record which would indicate sen
timent of this body. Unquestionably
popular opposition to equal suffrage
has decreased within the past few
years in South Carolina. 1 am sure
the general assembly will give much at
tention to this issue at the 1920 ses-
sion, though it will surprise me If the
proposed amendment Is ratified"

oriqin of the Scout Movement.-(

Oriain of the Scout Movement.-Cus-
tomary figure as the boy scout has be-
come in the United States, General
Baden-Powells visit added much to
American knowledge of the movement.
i good many newspaper readers were
probably surprised to learn that 1t
owes it's beginning to the Boer war
and the siege of Mafeking, without
which it may be questioned whether
there would now be any boy scouts.
In command at Mafeking, General Ba-
den Powell looked far beyond the
siege, and saw that a great and useful
organization Of boys might be de-
veloped from the corps of boy mes
sengers organized to serve the forces
holding that very hard-pressed town
That was the beginning Of it, but the
same force of character that defended
Mafeking carried forward the boy
scout idea until it was generally recog-
nized as a project for character build
| ing rather than encouraging militarism
| in the young. Another bit of infor-
| nation that probably surprised many
Americans was that Baden-Powell 1:
