Trainmen Meet At
Toronto In Third
Big Convention

TORONTO, Ont. May 9-The third
trennial national convention of Bro
therhood of Railway Trainmen open
ed here today. The brotherhood, Or
gained at Oneonta, N Y, Sept 23rd,
1883, now is the largest of the railway
Unions. 1t has a membership of
10000 and a treasury balance total
ing $8,000,00000, which represents its
reserves in its operating, protective
and insurance department.
Prior to governmental control of
the railroads by the United States,
tn ebrotherhood held working agree
ments with approximately g per cent
of the American railroads and all the
principal lines in Canada.
1t has been successful in caring for
disabled and deceased members hav-
ing paid out $53,274,007 in death and
disability claims.
About $500 delegates have arrived
in the city. The convention will be in
session through the rest of the month.
Common Sense, Says Hooper,
Should Govern
Combined common sense and Justice
to all persons concerned in railroad
labor disputes will be the means of
solution of every problem affecting
railroads and their employees, Ben w.
Hooper, chairman of the United States
Railroad Labor Board, said today be-
fore members of the Brotherhood of
Railway Trainmen in trienniaf con-
vention.
81 am impressed with the dominant
importance of the human element III
all labor controversies, he said.
There can in reality be no such
thing as conflict between capital of
today is the labor of yesterday. There
may be a controversy between the
man who furnishes the labor of yes
terday and the man who contributes
the labor of today This is merely a
contest between man and man and
not between the laboring man and
some gigantic ogre as the soap box
orator SO vigorously proclaims.
"As I sit upon the Railroad Labor
Board 7 see before me men animated
by the selfish instincts of human ma
ture. On the one hand are the men
who represent the owners of labor
of yesterday and now typified by
dollars, trackage and general equip
ment On the other hand is the 1iv-
ing pulsating labor of today. Both
are essential to the efficient operation
of railroads.
'The only one thing for which we
can reasonably hope is that as the
wears so by the beneficient spirit of
Christianity will soften the hearts of
men into finer and deeper sense of
brotherhood"
"None of us evan make a greater
mistake than to permit the well be-
ing of our free institutions to be
submerged as industrial antagonisms.
7 would not discourage the efforts of
any man nor gainsay the right of
any organization to battle for the
betterment of human conditions. I
would urge that the struggle be made
within the limit of the constitution and
he laws that the ballot box be he ark
of the covenant and that we all have
a care that we give no aid to those who
would pull down upon our heads the
temple of liberty"
J. B. Davenport and f. ]. Hunter
are delegates to this convention from
the B. of R. T. Lodge No. 767, and
left fitzgerald last week for the Can
adam city.

NON RESERVA- TON SCHOOL. AT FIT. APACHE

From rumOrS current and arrangements in progress it seems fairly certain that t h e Indian Department will establish a non-reserva- tion Indian School at the abandoned Post south of here known as Ft. Apache.
 It is said that there will be about forty Indian em. ployees at this new school, which will be entirely separ- ate and apart from boarding school at Whiteriver. If this be true the added number of citizens in the southern part of the county will be appreciably felt.
 Ft. Apache IS undoubted- ly an ideal spot for the loca- tion of a school, both with regard to environment and housing room. The build ings at the old post are large and numerous, and without doubt the Department would find 1t unnecessary to add many structures to those already present.

ATTY. W. E. FERGUSON
 MAKES TRIP

Late last week Atty. W. E. Ferguson returned from an extended trip into the in- terior. He surveyed a good deal of country in his pere- grinations and tells us, that he at least had one fact forcibly impressed upon him during his trip and that was that the range in New Mexi- co was powerful dry. His trip took in the country as far south as Quemado.
 We note by some of the larger papers that New Mexico is clamoring to have the quarantine laws relaxed so that she can ship some of her stock over here for pas ture. Altho we do not claim to know anything about the stock business, still it looks to us as if we would have all we can do to feed our own cattle this winter.
