Washington, Feb. 22-Formation of
 a political labor party would be de
 trimental to the interests of labor and
 exactly in line with that which is
 most ardently desired by those who seek tooppose labor,T Samuel Com
 pers declared in a letter to William Mitch, of Terre Haute, a leader of the Indiana State Labor Party, made
 public here today.
 NIT. Gompers wrote in reply to telegram from Mitchell and his asso-
 ciates supporting the action of the Indiana State Labor Party in oppos- ing the political declation of the American Federation of Labor calling on organized workingmen men to elect their friends and defeat their enemies,
 Mitch's telegram declared in fa- vor of making the fight solely through a labor party.
 By what right" wrote MT. Com pers, "do you assume to declare the
 work and the policy of the American Federation of Labor to be impractic- al? Surely the results achieved in the interests of the workers demonstrate
 the utter fallacy of your assumption. By your declaration you assert the practiea ability of the course you de-
 clare you will pursue. What experi- ence have you had with your political
 party upon which to base so absurd
 claim?
 ''Forsooth, some men understand not
 only that which is charged, but the
 virtue which is proclaimed of political financial honesty and dishonesty. Per hopes thorough investigation of politi- cal and financial virtue may be a
 proper subject of inquiry after a po-
 litical party shall have been in ex- istence more than a day.
 "Of this one thing you may rest aS- sured. that the day of reckoning is at hand for all of those who are in an- tagoniSm tothe cause of labor, and for tose wo are subtle and equally
 gunlty even though they clothe their actions in the robes of pretended friendship.
 When you shall have learned the
 lesson of the real struggle of Iahnr and the cause for which our movement

NO INFLUENZA ON THE
 U. S. WARSHIPS AT COLON

Colon, Panama, Saturday, Feb 21.- Reports that influenza is prevalent on board the ships of the Atlantic fleet now in Colon are not founded on fact, according to Surgeon Commander Oman of the medical corps of the navy in an interview today.
 He said the health conditions in the fleet in southern waters were excel lent and that there were no cases of influenza on board the battleships. There were, however, a few mild cas- es of the grip on the cruiser Colum- bia. Since January when the fleet departed from the United States, there has been only one death-that from pneumonia-among the 18,000 men on the warships.
 On shore the hospital authorities re- port 32 cases of influenza, the patients being from the Columbia and, the Pennsylvania.

EDWARDS TO FIGHT FOR ANTI
 PROHIBITION AT CONVENTION

Atlantic City, N. J., Feb 22.-Gov- ernor Edwards of New Jersey. an- nounced here today his intention of going to the San Francisco conyen- tion prepared to fight for an anti prohibition plank in the democratic platform. He criticized William Jennings Bryan, whom he designated "a man without a state" and de- clared that he had no fear that the Nebraskan will seriously injure the party should the convention take an prohibition stand. Governor Edwards said he was convinced that both parties must face the prohibi- tion issue as the livest that will come before the nation conventions.
 T don't care who is the party's candidate said the governor. My only concern is to see this question of national prohibition threshed out It is not matter of liquor it's a question of principle. Personal liber- ty and states rights are involved"

Chicago, Feb. 22-A rebellion against prohibition" has broken out in Iron County Michigan, and the coun- ty led by it's prosecuting attorney, Is in open revolt against federal au- thority, Major A. l.. Dadrympie- fed eral prohibition director for the cen traI states, notified Washington today.
 4 prohibition agent and a party Of Mchig state constables were held up February 19 by Iron County officials and wine they had confiscated taken from them, according to word brought to Chicago today by Leo J. Grove of Marquette, supervising prhibition torney General Palmer to order war agent for the Upper Peninsula.
 Major .Dairymple appealed to At rants issued for the arrest of the prosecutor two deputy sheriffs, two police officers and three other resi- dents Of Iron River. a mining village.
 While awaiting word from federal authorities Dalyrymple issued orders for a company of picked prohibition agents to gather here tonight prepar- s.orv to starting tomorrow on an arm e-i expedition which. he declared, will '<Iean up" Iron County.
 The Michigan state constabulary will be asked to cooperate in the ex- petition.
 Grove. accompanied by Lieutenant T.. G. Strope and Troopers Masters and Kind. of the state constHbulary, Eeized eleven barrels of wine at a D.ine two miles from Iron River. he reported to Major Dalrymple today. The wine is said to have been made by John. Peter and Steven Scalcuc- ei wealthy Italians, who own several business ve2uEes at Iron River.
 Qrove loaded the liquor into a -ra and -od to rr1ox-a fo "a plan Headquarters of the state con stabulariy in that section of the pc ninsula.
 When the sleigh reached Iron River it was met by Prosecuting Attorney ?. A. McDonough, Deputy Sheriffs Cnard and Jesse Alien. Police Chief C. H. Sensiba and Police Captain Claude Brown.
 MeDonough, according to Groves report, told the prohibition supervisor that he was under arrest for trans porting liquor'' and ordered his men 10 seize the wine. Grove put up a fight. but was overpowered. The vine. he says. was returned to the Sscdlcucci brothers by McDonougn, who. the report adds. told the broth CTS to post an armed guard over it with orders to shoot ii the federal agents tried to regain possession.
 ALtef receiklnS the report, MaJOr l,1lryR1ple asked that Attorney Gen eral Palmer instruct the United States commissioner at Marquette Michigan, te issue tae warrants. Grove reported Ihat District Attorney MyrOn H. Walker. at Grand Rapids. had ordered tae commissioner to issue no war rants without first submitting them b him, which takes from five to fif- teen days.
 Samples of the wine seized in the raid. taken some time ago, tested 14 par cent. alcohol.
 Iron River is a small village in the r5ining country a few miles from the Wisconsin line. The population of the county is largely composed of Italians and Sicilians. according to Grove, and ispotlegging has been rampant in the hills and woods for months.
 The Michigan state constabulary tried to clean upr the county a few rIonths ago and Captain Marsh of the constaibularly was shot by 8 bootleg ger.

Beckley of New London, Conn., who was in charge, said that the result could not be officially announced until his re port was in the hands of tho shipping board.

 ALONG POLISH FRONT

Warsaw, Friday, Feb. 2O-Bolshevik concentration along the Polish front continues, according to reports reach ing here from military observers.

GEORGE WASHINGTON

This was the man God gave us when the hour Proclaimed the dawn of Liberty begun; Who dared deed and died when it was done, Patient in triumph, temperate in power. Not striving like the CorSican to tower To heaven, nor like great Philips greater son To win the world and weep for worlds unWon. Or lose the star to revel in the flower. The lives that serve the eternal verities Alone do mold mankind. Pleasure and pride Sparkle awhile and perish; as the spray, Smoking across the creStS of cavernous seas, Is impotent to hasten or delay The everlasting Surges of the tide.
