FEEDER ALTON OF LABOR
AGGRESSIVE.

The vigorous announcement made
Monday morning by the American
Federation of Labor, 100000
strong, that it will at once, COM
mencing with primaries, get into
campaign activities of this year to
see that men most dependable in
support of legislation needed by
labor interests win nominations in
the old political parties and are
elected, is intended primarily to
put an end to efforts to establish
a fatuous labor party.
But the strong attack made upon
q busy congress for not having
speeded and accomplished enough
for labor was also meant to be a
spur. Samuel Gompers is a canny
leader and considers now the time
to sound q warning, hoping for
immediate results under penalty Of
securing changes in lawmaFing
bodies.
He also takes cognizance Of the
extremists in the organization who
are being urged to break away
from the past practice Of labor
organizations in picking between
men and parties,

has a few minority members in
parliament, but they have never
achieved as much for unionists as
have men in this country elected
from either of the two great par
ties. by reason of bidding for labor
support, or because of genuine
sympathy or membership in labor
organizations n addition TO being
active in the republican or demo-
cratic parties.
When Samuel Gompers was in
England last year attending an in
ternational conference he did not
hesitate to assert to the British
members of the conference that
the American system of see-sawing,
choosing between parties and party
candidates that promised most and
could deliver the goods, got labor

won by trying to go it alone in
politics and put Only a labor mi
nority into power.
The Federation of Labor is bat
Ting for continuation of this plan.
The proclamation just issued shows
the organization is willing to wage
war upon any party, or any men
deemed negligent or Indifferent to
labor interests.
The leaders who have been re-
sponsible for the practice of nego-
tiating for legislation by throwing
labor support in elections where
It would do the most good have
lsagacity.

panied by delusive promises and
hopes.

not the extremists, the one-idea |

aches, biliousness-and all of
them required first a thorough

back in 1875, had found good
deal of success in such cases With
a prescription of his own contain

pepsin. In 1892 he decided to
use this formula in the manufac-
ture of a medicine to be known as
DR.. CaldwelPs Syrup Pepsin, and
in that year the preparation was
first placed on the market. The

ify what he YVES now saying. This
made Commissioner F. E. Smith
laugh, as he remarked: mo, we
haven't seer the money yet" Com
mitteeman Smith did not deny, how
ever, that he had made the proposal TO
turn this money over to the Commits
sioners. The offer was made and quail
fed by the words that there
were absolutely 'Do strings to it," but
it would now appear, according to his
statement on Tuesday last that in
making the proposition, he spoke only
for a special committee and not for the
finance committee. At last weeks
meeting he was understood to say that
the committee for which be was acting
represented the athletic association.
Prompted by the offer made, the COM
m~issioners passed a motion toconstitute
themselves a committee of three to
consider plans and arrangements as to
how the money offered may be proper
ly expended or invested. So they must
have taken the proffer in good faith.
A letter from Stanley M. Kalbach,
dated S19 Eutaw street, Baltimore, re-
quested once more payment OF balance
claimed by him. He is in the employ
of Stone g. Webster, contractors, who
are at present engaged in the building
of a huge plant of some kind at the
corner of Clement and Woodall streets,
in that city.
Harry g. Weir, engineer and geolo-
gist, wrote again from Fairview, NM,
repeating also his previous demand for
balance claimed to be due him.
Both of these Communications were
referred to the city solicitor.
At last weeks meeting OF the COM
miseioners the sum Of 1920 was donated
to the members Of Fire Company Mol
and the same sum to Fire Company
No. 2. These payments were made on
a basis OF $12 for each member. The
quota of members for each company is
80. In addition to this annual contri-
OF $40, a bonus of 5000 was
given, to be divided equally between
the two fire companies. Adjourned 2 81.
