DOMINANT FIGURE
AT CONVENTION
Continued from page one)


y
Now comes the cry from labor that
Bosse. the wealthy manufacturer Of
Evansville, has acted in bad faith
with labor and has repudiatsI by his
actions the things that he professed
to believe in at the state convention.
The charge is made by John T. Cos
grove. frst vice-p president Of the Uni
ted Brotherhood OF Carpenters and
Joiners of America. that Bosse has
acted in bad faith in regard to his
proposed belief in the principle of
collective bargaining.
1t is pointed out by Mr.. Cosgrove
that Bosse has maintained that he
was an advocate OF the collective bar
gaining plank in the democratic plat
form. but now that a real test has
come to him to demonstrate it he has
fallen down.
Mr.. Cosgrove declares that Mr..
Bosse is a principal stakeholder in the
Evansville furniture factories wnere
$500 mill workers are on strike and
that committees Of these workers have
been refused conferences with the
employers.
The predicament that Bosse himself
is in is Of small moment when taken
INTO consideration with the blow that
was given TO democratic hopes when
the republicans brought about a SOL
ution of the league Of nations issue
in the adoption of a conciliatory plank
at Chicago. This has knocked A
curve into democratic hopes for they
confidently expected some dire split
in the republican party. 1t was this
hope that led the democratic leaders
to wink at the members of their own
ranks who voted the republican ticket
in the Indiana primary for they be
lieved that the G. o. P. could never
get the radical anti-lea guers in har-
mony with the reservationists
Foxy Tom TaEgart forgets his hab-
itual suavity when he discusses this
topic. 1t is not customary for Tag
CART to break down and ball out" his
political opponents. but in this case
the boss is so aroused that he is say
ing all kinds Of nasty things about the
men at Chicago because they were
able to unite the party on the subject
of the treaty.
Taggart's complaints are hailed with
joy by the republicans here who look
upon his state Of mind as an excel
lent indication y @ he has grave fears
that all will not D.. well for his party
in November.

An order for 100 locomotives, the
total cost CT which will be $4,000, 600,
has just been placed by the Union
Pacific with the American, Baldwin,
and Lima Locomotive companies, il
was announced yesterday. The loco
motives are to be delivered this
spring.
They are OF the latest and most
modern types. Eighty of them will
be used on the Union Pacific and
the other 20 will be used on the Ore
son Short Line and Oregon Railroad
and Navigation company.
The 80 new engines for the Union
Pacific include FIVE Of the heavy
Mallet type, to be used on the Sher-
man hill near Cheyenne; Is of the
Santa Fe and 10 of the Mikado
models, all for heavy freight haul
ing. Thirty switch engines and 10

passenger engines have also been
ordered.

Mallet type freight engines will be
used on the Oregon Short Line, and
