cadet and due to the failure of desig-
mated candidates to qualify in the en-
trance examination held last spring,
two vacancies for appointments to
West Point from the Fourth Congress
sional district are available and will be
filled before July, 1885, it is announced
by Congressman Knute Hill. Quite
number of young men from this dis
trict have already indicated their In
terest and Congressman Hill urges all
of those who are interested to COM
municate with him at Prosser.
The Civil Service Commission has
been asked by the Congressman to
hold two designation" examinations,
the first one to be on October 20 and
the second on January S, 1885. AS a re-
suit Of these examinations principal
and two alJernates will be selected for
each of the available appointments
who will be eligible to take the West
Point entrance examination to be held
in the Spring of 1885. Should the
principals in each case qualify in the
entrance examination they will be ad-
mitted to the Academy.
Congressman Hill states that out Of
fairness to all candidates he has ap-
this method of competitive examina-
tions for the selection of the cadets. He
points out that many applicants have
been students under him in grade
schools and high schools and per-
sonal choice between them would be
very difficult to make.
It is also stated that those who failed
to qualify in the examinations last
year and who will not be 90 years O..
age by the date for entrance to the
Academy, July l, 1885, may try again.

The status of organized labor. after

by labor's governing body as a pre-
liminary TO the annual federation con-
vention at San Francisco in October.
President William Green said Or
ganzation of 10000 employees has been
developed under impetus" of section
IA of the recovery act, providing for
organization of workers.
He announced the councils deci-
sion to grant a charter to a new in
ternational union, the Federation of
Flat Glass Workers of America, with
Glenn w. McCabe of Pittsburgh, for
mer president of the Window Glass
Cutters League, as president.
A proposal that the federation's s
annual convention be held elsewhere
than San Francisco was voted down.
Some unions favored another Site,
saying they did not have time for a
trip to the Coast, but the council
upheld the decision of the last con-
vention.

ion that the Hudson Motor Co. Union
