An Old Signed Copy, Printed in 1903
of Washingt0n's Farewell Address

for the Washington Benevolent
Society of New York, with the en-
graved portrait here reproduced,
gives us face good to look at and
something worth while to read at
this serious time in the history of
our proud and somewhat disturbed
country
George Washington, the first
President of the United States
wrote to the United States, Sep

ter the following paragraphs:
The unity of government, which
constitutes you one people, is also
now dear to you. It is justly so;
for it is main pillar in the edihce
OF your real independence; the sup
port Of your tranquility at home;
your peace abroad: of your safety,
OF your prosperity, Of that very
liberty which you so highly prize.
But as it is easy to forcsee that
from different causes and from diff
fercnt quarters much pains will be
taken, many artilces emplcy cyed, to
weaken in your minds the convic-
ton of this truth, as this is the
point in your political fortress
against which the batteries of in
ternal and external enemies will
be most constantly and actively
(thcugh often covertly and ms d.
iously) directed, it is of infinite
moment that you should properly
estimate the immense value Of your
national union to your collective
and individual happiness; that you
should cherish a cordial, habitual
and immovable attachment to it,
accustoming s'c::-sc...cs to think
and speak Of it as the palladium of
your political safety and prosper

of patriotism and wisdom that v

THINKS NEXT CONGRESS
WILL ADJOURN BY JUNE
Speaker Gillett Believes House
Will Give Most Of It's Attention
to Appropriation Bills.

The next session of Congress should
adjourn by the first of June, according
to Speaker Gillett, in sufficient time to
have everything cleared up before the
two big national political conventions.
Speaker Gillett said he believed that
in the next session the House will de-
vote it's attention almost exclusively
to the consideration of the big appro-
priation measures. For more than six
months the House has been busy on
important general legislation, the
Speaker explained, and has in this way
transacted a great deal of general bus
mess, so that the House in the next
session. he believes, can afford to con-
centrate it's attention on careful scru-
tiny of the big supply measures.
Speaker Gillett, accompanied by his
family, left Washington this afternoon
to spend Thanksgiving with his sister
in Westfield, Mass, which is his old
family home. This is outside of his
own district. but is within four miles
of Springfield, which is the principal
city in the district which Mr.. GilIett
represents in Congress.

BIG STONE GAP, Va, November a.
State troops are expected to arrive
today to take charge of the coal opera
lions in the st. Charles district and see
to it that the mines are operated.
Friday, in an effort to go to work, the
mine foreman was fired upon, bullets
striking all around, but none touching
him. Gov. Davis was prompt in send
ing the Virginia troops here, and the
situation for the next twenty-four
hours will be critical in the union
field about st. Charles.
r. Tate Irvine this afternoon states
there has been no fighting at or near
Big Stone Gap except that at St.
Charles, where no one was killed and
none injured to any appreciate extent.
The. Wise county coal fields are not
unionized and are not affected by the

The International labor conference
Will end its work in the United States
this week and will adjourn Saturday
after completing the machinery of
permanent organization.
Reports by committees on the
eight-hour-day law and unemploy-
ment were before the delegates in
session today.
A draft convention submitted by the
committee on unemployment proposes
establishment of free public employ
.ment agencies under the control of
central authority.
The committee also recommended
that the recruiting of workers in one
country for employment in another
be permitted only by mutual agree
ment between the countries and after
consultation with the employers and
workers.
Another recomm endation was that
arrangement be made whereby work.
ers of one country employed in an
other might be protected by unem-
ployment insurance on the same
terms as the workers in their own
country.
Establishment of an international
labor office to consider all questions
concerning migration of workers and
