have no opportunity of answering
him. His talk all the way through
was very disappointing, but pos
sibly If he had been given the
chance Of talking in favor Of in-
stead Of against the Timberwork-
crs, he might have got by" in a
different manner. The fact Of the
matter is that in debate the LII
has absolutely no chance. as it is
strictly Boss-controlled organ
ization.
1t viii be a long time before the
LII viii ever accept a challenge
to debate with the Timberworkers.
We don't think that OMalley will
stay i'm this district a great length
Of time, as he has been of more
benefit to the Timberworkers than
to the ILL. and as he will meet
with the displeasure Of the powers
that be for spilling the story about
GOV. Ilough and the bulls.
1t is too bad that a man that had
so good start in life as O'MalIev
should turn out to be such a failure.

OMalley should be out fighting the
battles of the workers instead Of

NAT. IMITATION AND
REFERENDUM LEAGUE

Organized labor is especially in
terested in the movement headed by
General Jacob S. CoXey, ST., for an
initiative and referendum amend
ment to the United States Consti-
tuition, inasmuch as it was unani-
mously Endorsed by the American
Federation of Labor at its June con-
vention at Atlantic City, and has
also been Endorsed by number of
State Federation conventions. The
National Initiative and Referendum
League, of which General CoXey is
president, has been incorporated I'M
der the laws of the State of New
York, and has established national
headquarters at Seventh Avenue and
49th Street, New York City. From
this headquarters has just been
launched nationwide membership
campaign. Anyone desiring to be-
come a member of the League may
do so by communicating with the
New York address.
General CoXey has long been rec
ognized as one of the staunch
friends of organized labor. He is
profound thinker, with the nerve
and ability to start things. Even so
conservative an organ as the New
York Evening Post has editorially
given credit to him for having orig
mated some of the biggest ideas that
have now gained practical recogni-
tion for the benefit of the people.
The movement in which he is now
engaged has taken practical form in
joint resolution introduced at his
request in both Houses at Washing
ton, providing for an initiative and
referendum amendment to the Fed
eral Constitution. In each house
the resolution has been referred to
the Committee on the Judiciary
The Committee of the Lower House
has granted a hearing to General
CoXey, the author of the proposed
amendment, and hearing has been
promised before subcommittee of
the Senate Committee. Citizens ev-
erywhere have been strongly urged
to send to their Senators and Con-
gressmen requests to support the
joint resolution.
Reduced to its simplest terms,
national initiative and referendum
means government by the people. 1t
means that they will no longer del
egate to their representatives, or
misrepresentation a power of at
torney to represent them absolutely,
without check or control, until the
end of their term. 1t means that at
any time the people will have the
right and power to say what they
want and don't want. They, them
selves, can make and unmake ma
tional laws and constitutional
amendments. If they want prohi-
bition, they can have it by the pop
ular vote. If they don't want it,
they can wipe it off the map.
It's big idea; in fact, the biggest
thing now proposed in the way of
a change in government, 1t is di-
rect corrective for the present evils
of government which breed discon-
tent and defiance and open resist
ance of law. There can be no revo-
luton in this country if the people
are allowed to rule.

icalism that they had been elected
to these offices. Coming as this did
right after a good clean address by
Canterbury, it did not help the
cause of the ILL, but really weak
ened it. In times past there have
been members of different organ
izations who not having the abil-
ity land O'Malley certainly has not
to rise very high in the ranks Of
different organizations, they be-
come disgruntled and start running
down the organizations instead of
sticking by them the way real men
would do.
Many of US hearing that O Nal
ley was a grand orator, expected to
hear him put up good argument
in favor of the ILL, but were dis
appointed as he did not seem to
even have the ability to memorize
his argument, but had TO read it.
His hour was taken up in reading,
and it was very disappointing to the
audience. Many of them, after lis
tening to his attacks on the A. f.
of L., got up and left the hall in dis
gust and did not return until he
had finished and Canterbury had
again taken the platform.
The statements he made were
oftentimes so ridiculous that they
were received with jeers by the
greater part of the audience.
One Of these statements was that
labor plus natural resources was
not enough to build up a country.
Any fool knows that it also takes
brains, but he tried to put over on
his audience that all the brains
were in the heads of the Lumber
Barons. The workers know that
labor plus >atural resources and
graft is what has built up the great
fortunes of not only the lumber ba-
rons, but also the railroads, steel
industry, and all of the great trusts
in this country today
He also told of the efforts of the
great lumbermen of Everett to make
a success of their undertakings.
That they had all been real, hard
working men. That Robinson had
been a carpenter, Poyneer had fol-
lowed another line of work, and
that Gov Clough had driven bulls
back in the woods Of the State Of
Minnesota years ago We believe
all these things, especially in regard
to the bulls" Clough is not the
only one of the mill-owners that is
handy with the bull" They are
all trying to peddle it to the work
ers when they tell them the ILL
is an organization that is going to
be of great benefit to the workers.
O'Mslley also told of attempts OF
the Miners at different times to or
ganize and of their many failures,
and condemned their present form
of organization.
He didn't say that he possibly had
been one of the members of those
unions that had met with failure,
and that it was through his lack of
ability that they had failed. If. as
we have heard, he did belong to
the Miners Union of Montana, aft
er listening to puny attempts to de-
fend the ILL, we have reason to
feel that he had been a detriment
instead Of a benefit to the Miners.

John w. Miller
Dies Suddenly

KNOXVILLE, Oct. 15.-John w.
Miller, veteran of the Union army and
for many years connected with the
Knoxville postoffce, died suddenly
Tuesday morning about Z o'clock in
the Southern Railway passenger sta
ton, where he was awaiting to board
a train for Johnson City.
Mr.. Miller was en- route to the Sol
dicrs' Home at Johnson City, where
he expected to remain for some time,
receiving treatment in the govern
ment hospital and living in the Sol
diers' Home. For some time he had
been living at Maryville and came
to Knoxville Tuesday morning, ac-
companied by friends, on K. & A.
lain, reaching this city at 6:45 a. m.
After reaching the city Mr.. Miller
grew weaker, but it was not thought
that his journey would be stopped by
death.

"Pape's Diapepsin" puts
Sour, Classy, Acid Stomachs
in order at once

Wonder what upset your stomach
which portion of the food did the
damage you! Well, don't bother.
If your stomach is in a revolt; If sick,
gassy and upset, and what you just
ate has fermented and turned sour
head dizzy and aches; belch gases and
acids and eructate undigested food
Just eat tablet or two of Pape's
Diapepsin to help neutralize acidity
and in five minutes you wonder what
became of the Indigestion and dis
tresS.
If your stomach doesn't take care
of your liberal limit without rebellion;
if your food is a damage instead Of a
help, remember the quickest, surest,
most harmless antacid is Pape's Dia-
pepsin, which costs so little at drug
stores.

Morristown High
Defeats Greeneville

MORRISToWN, Oct. Is. = The
football team of the Morristown High
school defeated the eleven from the
Greeneville high school yesterday on
the local field by a score of 10 to 0,
after one of the closest battles seen
here for several seasons.
A long pass from Litz to d. Moser,
who ran for 60 yards and a touch
down in the third quarter was the
feature of the game. Hal Hale's
drop kick for a field goal counted for
the other three points. Marsh, the
Morristown fullback, played stellar
game until an injury forced his re-
moval from the lineup.
