s is whole will not join In this
for there is a bitter war over

-< During the last ?trlke, in
: rt by a murder perpetrated by
f the officers of the miners union,
ay catted restaurant keeper being
t ? :e u, a lively proselyting cam
I w , conducted bv the American
a which made great inroads
the mciribershipof the I. W. Wi.- lo
:h t h ?.? Western Federation, unable
o - and alone, has lost its independ
v-.' -ad identity. The I. W. W. organ
b .--. d on socialism? the rock
i. ? :.kh they split off from the Amer
oan Fe ?rut;on. The leafers of this
nizatioo are ultra radical and are
r preaching forca a* the most
o'- i kus of carryiog their point,
n g the great strike of last winter
a?' whom their eomity w?s
Li-U'J were taken to their hall and,
with lights extinguished, beaten cru
elly aod ordered ort of town. This was
a matter of almost daily occurrence,
with the murder, referred to, intro
duced between times. x
On the walls of the room were
mottoes of the moat lnflamable charac
ter. Oue of th?m, for instance, read
thus: "For every hair of the '.head of
our brother that is harmed we will
get a capitalist." "Our brother"
meant Mr. Haywood, whose trial
was goio>; on at the time,
and of course the doclaratioa stood
whether tho man was proyen guilty cr
cot. In this hall, decorated with u
number of such pointed statements?
and because there was ho other ball
available? the people of Qoldfleld gave
a reception to the governor of the state
on one occasioo.
It is resentment against these
methods that gave th? American Fed
eration l's impulse acd ground work
for its campaign a*.d brought the I. W.
W. to he brink of ruin at the time
referred to. However, ihe organiia
lion included at one t me pretty nearly
every working man in the district and,
though it robbed the miners of their
individuality it leui them strength, aod
for the most part they clung to it for
that reason and will still do so, as they
are at permanent outs with the Ameri
can Federation. The correspondents
have seen fit to send out, as news, the
statement that they will fight to a
finish the attempt to work through the
courts their dissolution, but it might
weM have gone wlibout saying.
Governor Hogijatt'a recommendations
submitted in his report are very good
as far a* they go. That no reference
was made to the territorial matter
leaves us to understand that he has no
recommendations to make, sicce he hat
said th?t he favors "some form of home
rule." In other words, the governor
would like to see a chance, but he does
not know whit change. And which is
another way of saying, "let her stay as
she ii." To this the people respectful
ly dlsaent.

Quite unashamed; and bhe displayed

To sympathize, and with a sigh;
"Your lover's faithless, I'm afraid,"
He told my Nell.
At fir?t she made a prou 1 replv:

Italian newspapers are once more
discussing the question as to who In

with Vasmi, who maintained that Jan
Van Eyck was the first to use oils as
a means of fixing pigments.
Gutzon Borglum, the sculptor, says
that Itobert Fltzslmmons Is one of the
best specimens of manhood In the
world and by far the most perfect rep

this age has produced. Borglum is to

SHOWING- OFF A GUEST.
Tha Innkeeper Wa? D?termined Fee
aenden Should Appear.
One night while ex-Secretary of the
Treasury Fessenden was on a political
mission to the northern part of Main*
he stopped at a small hotel.
In the center of the house was a big
store that warmed two rooms. In one
of the apartments Judge Fessenden
established himself and prepared to
tfke proper comfort during the even
ing. Just as he had got well located
with a book the landlord, a six foot
French Canadian, came in.
"Excuse me." "selr," said he, "but Mr.
Ed Wlggonc of MajTsrille, she bo In d#
odder room, an' she wan' to see Mr.
Fessendecr.,"
"Tell Mr. Wlggin. I'll be In a little
later," said Jtidgo Fessendea. turning
another leaf In his book.
The landlord went out. He returned
In a moment "Mr. Wiggone she send
his compliments, an' she say dat she
wan' Mr. Fessendeen right away."
The Interruption. Just at that mo
ment rather nettled the judge, who
was In no way accustomed to dictator
ship. He neat back such a sharp re
ply that It was easily seen that t be
landlord was cut by his asperity. In
Just thirty seconds the landlord was
back. Judge Fessenden raised his
eyes to And the man staring at him
with a look of desperate resolve. With
suppressed excitement In his tones the
tall landlord spoke.
"Mr. Wiggone say she wan' see Mr.
Fessendeen quick, an* she gues' o' de
house, an' I say she gon' to see him."
Forthwith the big landlord swooped
down on the astonished gentleman,
seized him. tucked him under his arm
and strode across Into the room of the
peremptory gentleman from Maysvllle.
"Mr. Wlggones," calmly said the
landlord, as matter of fact as though
he had Just delivered a pitcher of Ice
wator, "here be Mr. Fessendeen." He
set the Indignant "caller" down on a
chair and retired smilingly.
