.BOSSISN RULED
G.O.P.POWWOW,
SAYS BOWERS
BY CLAUDE G. BOWERS
lFamous Democratic political writer
who in the following article, gives his
views of the closing session of the
Republican National Convention)
Copyright. 1882. by International
News SerViCe)


CHICAGO, June II QN.SO
The most notoriously boss-ridden
convention in a generation came
to a close without a hitch in the
plans of Mr.. Hoover and the Cabi-
net musketeerS who welded the
lash.
Had it been possible to have
thrown a police line about Chicago
and to have excluded the Cabinet
members, postmasters, prohibition
officers and other political de-
pendants of the Administration,
the results would have been en-
tirely different.
Climax of BOSSiSm
Mr.. Hoover would not have been
nominated; nor would Mr.. Curtis.
And the plank on prohibition
would have been an honest one.
But the delegates, mostly excel
lent men and women, were not
free agents.
The climax of boSsiSm came
when Senator France, a Repub-
lican. who had polled more than
a million and half Republican
voters and had been formally put
in nomination for the presidency,
was manhandled by dignitaries of
the party on the platform.
Pushing and showing him, police
men summoned to the aid of the
Sergeant-at-arms, actually elected
him.
The reason for this mobbing of
the rules of orderly procedure in
a convention is significant. 1t
was known that France proposed
to withdraw his name and place
Calvin Coolidge in nomination.
The office-holders dominating the
personally conducted convention
were afraid there would be a
stampede.
Just Rhapsody
It was Hoover's day.
The Hoover nominating speech
OF Mr.. Scott, of California, was
a rhapsody. The seconding
speeches reminded one of Alice in
Wonderland.
Then came the demonstration
with the aid of two bands and
the magnificent organ-as the
delegates went through the Gus
tomary duty of bearing the stand
ards around the hall. At inter
valS balloons were dropped from
the ceiling.
AS I watched this exhibition of
endurance, I was reminded of AL
Smiths suggestion when some
thing of the sort was being
planned for him
Lets cut out the bunk"
And there were amusing fea-
lures, too. 1t was amusing to
note the evident satisfaction of

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

The Unions of the State of Montana affiliated with the Montana
State Federation of Labor and the various city central councils, to-
gether with the Montana State Federation of Labor, wish to extend
to the merchants and firms and individuals who have so generously
J supported this publication, their appreciation. The unemployment
situation which has now existed for almost three years has affected
not only men and women employed for wages, but also me and
women operating business. No finer spirit of self-sacrifice and
patriotism could be manifested than that in which these merchants
have maintained their working organizations together in the face
of financial losses to themselves. In many cases stores have kept
their employees at work when, insofar as work was concerned, there
was little, and at times nothing for them to do. Under these cir
cumstances, many loyal friends of the State Federation were unable
to advertise in the Annual for 1882. To these firms also we e x
tend our gratitude.
In a world so rich as this, and particularly in a country SO rich
as the United States, there should be n poverty o evidence of it.
Charity has n place in the philosophy II material practices of the
labor movement, yet cognzance should be taken of the assistance
that is being given daily by the grocers, cafes and delcatessen stores
in feeding many hungry men and destitute widows and children.
No correct evaluaton will ever be compiled of the cost to these
merchants during this depression.
The Montana State Federation of Labor is now the outstanding
factor in stimulating the consumption of Montana-made products,
when these products r made under union conditions. No organi-
cation of business men such as the Buy-at-Home bureaus re able
to function as effectively as the Montana State Federation of Labor
in developing the buy-at-home spirit. The Federation, being in direct
touch with the twenty-five thousand organized men and women in
the state, is able to direct the purchasing power of these men and
women along definite channels, tending to develop the industries
of the state. The labor movement carries 0 n this splendid work
without any blare of trumpets, notwithstanding the assistance it
gives the various institutions or the money it keeps in Montana
banks. The main purpose Of this propaganda, however, is the
Strengthening of the labor movement and the raising of the standard
of living of the working people.

GETTING DOWN TO FACTS

In commenting on public utility problems and
their relation to the public, Philip H. Gadsden, Vice-Presi-
dent, the United Gas Improvement Company, said: "It is
my judgement that what is needed for a satisfactory sol
ution Of these difficult and p~erplexing questions is, (D
that they be understood; (2) that they be discussed from
the standpoint Of the economics involved, free from polit-
ical, partisan, and social bias; and 81 that they be settled
on a basis which will promote, rather than hinder, the
growth and expansion Of the utility industry.
This seems little enough to ask, but experience hes
shown that it is difficult to attain. Tremendous efforts
have been made by the enemies of privately owned utilit-
les, to obscure or exaggerate utility problems, and make
them seem more complicated than they are. In law-mak-
ing, sectional interests and jealousies have played a larg-
er part than have intelligence, logic and the real needs Of
the consumers and investors.
The average citizens interest in a utility is simply
this: That he be given the best possible electric or gas
service at the least possible cost. In order to do this, the
utility must earn sufficient profit with which to main it's
facilite, attract investment of new capital, and make ex-
pansions and improvements when necessary. Acrimon-
ious political pickering can only hinder the utility indus
try's development and damage the true public interest.
Under our present system whereby privately owned util-
tiles operate under the jurisdiction of state commissions;
the public's interest is well perfected, and the industry's
future progress assured.

EDITORIALS!~
LEST WE FORGET"

In the Sept. oath edition Of the OMAHA GUIDE,
we published a QUESTIONABLE submitted by the National
Association for the Advancement Of Colored People, to
the Candidates for Presidency and Vice Presidency Of the
u. 5. in the coming election. Has the Negro Political
Leader in their respective communities asked the County
Central Committee Chairman, the State Central Commit
tee Chairman and your Congressman who is asking you
for support in your district, What their nominee for
President and Vice President says in regard to the ans
Wer, the QUESTIONABLE submitted by the National Assoc
iatiOn for the Advancement Of Colored People? 1t is the
purpose of this Association to fight for the rights of every
Negro citizen, and see that the Negro Problem is not
evaded in this day of reconstruction as has been done in
the past. There is a personal responsibility placed upon
the heads of this nation, in their attitude regarding the
i~Ejustices and intolerances heaped upon the Negroes of
this Country. The National Association has asked for a
plain declaration on the Negro problem in order to in
form him how to cast his ballot in the coming election for
the man who will stamp out racial segregation, promote
higher education for Negroes, give them their prO-rata of
employment, and see that the citizenship rights are pro-
tected, of every Negro throughout this land. Without
any argument, every Negro in Politics, and every Negro
Newspaper in the u. S. are aware of this fact: That the
.AA.C. is the only organization in the u. S. that no
paid political propaganda which tends to deceive or mis-
lead the Negroes of our Country, will be accepted by the
officials of this organization. Every Negro Newspaper
and every Negro Political Leader should without hesita-
ton, demand an answer from the Republican and Demo-
cratic Nominees in the coming election. No Negro Pol
ltlcal Leader and no Negro Newspaper can rightfully saw
they are in a better position to know who their friends are
in a National Political Campaign than the National AS
ISOLATION for the Advancement of Colored People; an or
ganization that is active 365 days a year in the interest of
Black America. In our opinion regardless of our Local
Political connections, the nominee who refuses to answer
this QUESTIONABLE should not get any consideration what
so-ever from any Negro Newspaper or Negro Political
Leader. The Nominee will not get consideration from any
one who has red blood flowing through their veins, re-
CARELESS OF any cash agreement, or positions that NAV be
offered by the Nominee through their campaign man
ager.
