CHiCAGO'S FIRST G OP
CONVENTION so YEARS
AGO ROOMS FOR $3.50

Chicago, ILL.,, June AT the first
Republican national convention held
in Chicago 50 years ago.
An Iowa delegate walked $50 miles
TO Get to a railroad to come to the con
vcntion.
Special railroad rates were made
and ChicagO's population probably
doubled in convention week
Hotel rooms were $l50 and $3.50
a day.
Crowds were 80 great that billiard
tables in the hotels were pressed into
service as beds.
The "wigwam" in which the con
vention was held was probably about
the size Of the annex ID the Coliseum
in which this years convention takes
place.
The Wigwam's profuse decoration
was largely furnished BY the rcpubli-
can women of Chicago They were
invited To come EARNED and equipped
with those formidable weapons, need
les, thimblcs. scissors, etc. etc.
When a special train pulled in with
the Massachusetts and other New Eng
land delegates. rockets were sent up
and cannon doomed to announce
their arrival to the waiting friends.
The gallery in the convention hall
was reserved for women and their es-
c0rts. Because Of the great number
Of men unable TO get in, one man was
reported trying 10 get into the gallery
with an Indian squaw selling moe
cassins az his credentials, but was cx-
cluded on the ground that she was no
lady.
The two chief nominating speeches
were made in less than 30 words.
Abraham Lincoln was placed in nom
inatiOn in 26 words.
The making Of the presidential nom
ination was announced 10 the city IN
the firing Of a cannon placed On the
roof Of the convention hall.
That night cannon and rockets were
fired, bonfires lighted, and multi
tudinous parade formed, their parti-
cipants carrying anything that would
servc-even to rakes and fishing poles
The foregoing data was obtained
from the library Of the Chicago His
torical Society, which has various rel
les Of the convention and the cam
paign that followed.

MONTREAL. Quebec, june z.
Denunciation of Bolshcvism. rrofi-
teering, the action of the United
States government in invoking the
food control law against late miners
strike, and the failure of the Amcri-
can Congress to take action 10
control the cost Of living are among
the outstanding features Of the annual
rerort Of the Executive council OF th-
American. Federation Of Labor pres
entcd today TO the annual convention
here.
With the councils review of organ
lied labor's position and activities for
the last year. was also presented "a
specific program for remedy"
The Cummings railroad law was de-
nounccd, as was the Kansas law e.
tabliShng the court Of industrial re-
lations. The high cost Of living was
laid largely at the door of big prof
itecrs' while the report declared the
United States government, principally
through the department Of Justice,
"has conducted a campaign Of stupid
ity."
Congress was assailcd for cutting
appropriations designed to carry on
the work of the collateral branches of
the department of labor and for vari-
Gus proposals, such a. the sedition
bill. which the report says the labor
movement was instrumental in defeat
ing.
In its references 20 the foreign field
the report denounced what in cnarac-
tcriZed "a propaganda for American
intervention in Mexico and declared
that the executive council sees "uo
justification for interference" which
it argues would be IN the interest TO-
the exploitation If its workers, and
its boundioss wealth Of oil and min
erals"
The United States Steel Corpora
tior was assailcd FOR its refusal to deal
with labor organizations in the recent
unsuccessful strike. and the authori-
ties Of Boston also were denounced
for their attitude in the celebrated
strike Of policemen in that city.
The workmen " Canada were con
graduated for defeating the one biz
union" idea and their stand was
characterized aS ia magnificent
triumph for trade unionism. and
vindication of the purposes, policies
and achievements Of the American
federation Of labor"
The industrial conferences called I'M
President Wilson were characterized
as unsuccessful because "thc employ
ers stubhornly resisted every attempt
al cancellation" and would not accept
any resolution On collective bargain
ing" unless !, was So worded az To Be
anti-tradc union in spirit and To pro
vide encouragement and support for
company unions" The machinery
proposed by the second conference.
the report attacks as in many respects
actually pernicious' and IL declares
that ''thc machinery designed by the
presidents commission is entirely out
Of contact with the life for which II
was designed and entirely untitled for
the needs OF that life"
