are Every well-informed man in the United States knows that at the time when the Attorney General secretly went to Chicago to ask for this in junction the coal strike had already been settled by negotiation, and that a number of the executives repre- senting a very large group of roads were meeting together to work out an agreement which would have brought peace on all the roads in the United States except a small group of railroads dominated by the "die hards" among the railroad executives, who have sworn that they will never consent to any settlement which does not involve complete surrender by the shopmen and the abandonment of col lective bargaining on their roads This small minority of "bitter enders" are the same ones who contemptuously rejected the proposed settlement officially offered by the President of the United States. If this amicable settlement between the shopmen and the railroads had been completed, 1t would have left this small minority of anti-union executives isolated and would have meant their ultimate de feat.-Rep. Oscar Keller.

WILSON.

Upon the rock of Human Faith he And pleaded for the cause of Equal
 Rights; Pleaded for a worldwide brother That would place mans love for
 man on loftier heights. And many peoples listened and paid
 heed, While his own countrymen his
 creed decried, And criticised his every word and deed
 And another noble heart was cruci- fled. But the latest seed of justice has been
 sown, The handwriting on the wall is plain to see, The bird of freedom OCT the earth has flown Sending forth his cry for World
 Democracy. The time is near when millions will arise And hurl the demi-gods of greed from off their thrones; The man with the hoe at last has raised his eyes And has scowled upon the cursed horde of drones. The pampered giants will fight to stay the day, Yet their mighty efforts will but be in vain; Their golden idol with its feet of clay Shall be strewn in fragments over hill and plain. Too long have we bent the back, bowed low the head, Too long have we trembled with an inborn fear; Arise, arise, throw off that mortal dread, The light of Hugo's Liberty is here,
 E. c. BRENNAN,
