Out To the local unionsof the A S a E in Ohio county in particular anl Kentucky In general I At the last meeting of the National c union held in Indianapolis Ind Octo k ber 22 to 26 1907 a new set of officers were elected including a now boardI of Directors This became necessary because of contention and division be i President and other official s Ithe 1t became apparent that President Everitt was dispose to exercise an arbitrary ule over oth er officials and In fact the whole So ciety to the extent that any who would not readily yield to his opinion am Ideas whether they were convinced r that It was right to yield or not He made demands of tho Board of Directors In March last that theY expel from office Director of Organization Charles A Speer because al leged incompetency and it did not a- pr pear to the satisfaction of the Boar that such acion would be justifiable- in view of the obstacles he had to enI tbcounter partly as Speer claims throw by Mr Everitt Mr Ever i itt was very urgent In his demands j and called a second meeting of the Board for the same purpose in July and It became necessary to enter Into a general investigation of affairs ai headquarters and at this meeting charg tes were prefered against Mr Specf by Mr Everitt and against Mr Ey eritt by Mi Speer and also against Mr Everitt by Mr Tubbs N A motion was made and carried unanimously by the Board that each should submit proof of charges and ample opportunity be given each tc defend himself After hearing both complaints and defense of all parties forgpe day and part of one night the Board adopted unanimously the following resolutions as their action in the matter Resolved 1st That this Board of Di rectors Insists that the money coming t Into headquarters beused to give society competent service and a theI plete directory of local Insists that the official organ cptoI Date Farming be used to aid in this I work and to advance the work of i the society in all de partments without pardalityj Resolved 2nd Having heard the va rious complaints of the officials at i headquarters and duly weighed the same it Is the opinion of the Board that It would be Inexpedlnet to take t any decisive action at this time so near the date of tho National Conven tion Resolved 3rd That we exort all at headquarters to lay aside all bickering otriio and contentions and devote their time to tho fulfillment of their duties as laid down in the constitution and bylaws so that when the scoiety as Hombles in National Convention they may present a forcible example to tho l members viz A body of voters ac I brothIerlThis was adopted unanimously and Mr Evorltt and Mr Speer shook hand of their acceptanceas a manifestation I I of the Boards action The Board having continued Its sessions for three days having also night sessions try fug to adjust matters decided that all i had been done that was possible to accomplish at this time and especlal ly after the Impressive scene that fol I lowed the adoption of the above har monious resolution We felt that goo work would follow but to our astonishment in a short time the same old troubles were up again and seemed to grow more aggrevated Finally the l Board was called to meet on the 18thI 1ofOctober Just four days pryor of the National meeting When we arrived In Indianapolis we found i that Mr Everitt had a committee oft fhis own selection called together for purpose of Investigating matters At this meeting he wanted the Board I of Directors to meet as a side show to his committee Among others he Invited to serve on this committee was Vice Presldnet Whlttlng of the National Union but before the time came for the meeting ho counter manded the Invitation of Mr ting who was away from home at thoI r time Mrs Whitting wrote Mr itt a letter Inquiring why he hadrel i u called the invlt UonoMr Evorltt reply was that he slid not consider Mr Whiting competent Mr Everitt also removed Mr Whiting from th Board of Directors and submitted t name of his bookkeeper who had bee- electedI Treasurer without consults ng anyone unless It was the substitute I The claims of Mr Everitt that the con ventlon was Irregular and revolution I ary Is the merest bosh as the timo and place of the meeting was arrang ed at the meeting of the Board o r Directors by unanimous voterTconvention was Irregular only In 11 did not see fit to bow to the will of Mr Everitt His further claim that It was a packed convention ddminate- f d by three State Delegations Js also I false as will be evidenced by the fol lowing facts v There were twenty States represent ed and the greatest unanimity of se- s fluent prevailed on all questions th juncjj Mr Everitt called the meeting to order and was In the chair except when taw fit to vacate until Mr Barns i was elected We are satisfied I at least threefourths of the delegates I went to this convention in love with Mr Evreltt and supposing he was all right but before time came to electt oflcers so many evidences of crookej j ness and other undesirable qualities j were manifest that ash Irreaistable de- mandj was being made for a general house cleaning Seeing this some of

product is raised in five and a crop produced every da In the year is carried on in Phlia iJhla Chinatown by Lee Ling Then e v o r consists of fifty cedar bucket- I and in them Lee raises at a profit of 700 per cent a product called Ha choy or 11 chow which is largely used In Chinese cooking says the Philadelphia Ledger Lees garden is one on which the sun never shines There is no tilling of the soil for there is no soil t i neither is there any weeding for weeds have no opportunity to grow Water Isthe agency which makes things thrive in the garden Lla choy Is sprouts from a Chinese bean These beanS are Imported They are about the size of a small pea+ and have a hard shiny olivegreen shellThe sprouts from the bean are a white as the most perfectly bleach ed celery and have a sweet taste that savors of the artichoke orj tender spring radish At their high Lest stage of development they areI about four inches in length and a thick as the ordinary lead penciltWhoever has eaten yockemain in a Chinese restaurant has eaten lla choy for these and many other dishes prepared by the Orientals can scarcely be served without It As a result thousands of pounds of the product Is used every week 4 But the garden in which lie choy is grown by Leo Ling is an interest ing thing Side by side in the cor ner of a long dark room fifty wood en buckets with battened tops ar arranged Into two or three these are put two pounds of Chines- beans each The little green pellets are then covered with luke warm water and allowed to stand Gradually they ab sorb the water and by the end of the first day they have swelled to twice their normal size More water is then sprinkled over them and the covers of the buckets are replacedt At the end of the second day the Jackets of the beans have burst and a tiny sprout appears In the meant time a frosty quantity of beans has been put into two or three othe- o buckets and treated as in the first case Every day a naw lot of seeds are planted in additional buckets so that at all times there are crops in various stages of development By the end of the third day the beans in the first bucket have sent t out sprouts an inch long which begin to curl and twist in every dl mat hterhalf full of what at first glance re sembles a lot of coarsely chopped k cabbagebFrom this tf water is poured over the sprouting growth gradually swells up In the i in buckets until at the end of the fouth day the vessel is filled with a mass of clear whiteshoots The tops of the buckets are fastened down andn the sprouts twist and In- terlaceb in the dnrlcnesst1I Gradually the power exerted by the growing roots becomes such that it is necessary to release the tops of the palls The lla choy then expands until the while curly mass extends five or six Inches above the top of the is vesselaFrom et to the very top of the to growth there is nothing but a mass of clean crisp white sprouts Tho palls are then emptied and the sproutsare shaken Up and raked over by hand until they all He as loose as so many straws in aplle The green shells of the beans are picked put and then the lia choy Is Jut In baskets and placed In the tore tor sale The buckets are put back in place and fresh beans are put into them So by planting in succession in the various vessels as the crops are completed there is a neverending I supply of the lia chop I The imported beans planted in the t strange garden cost about five centsI pound From the two 1 placed in the bucket about sixteen pounds of Ha choy is grown The pro duct sells for five cents a pbundI Therefore on an

from first page put up to the Kentucky delegates to 1ecta man to be nominated Mr C M Barnett was selectedwas nominal and elected by 199 votes to 8 for his opponent Mr H E Wilson of Okla homa who was one of Mr Everltts special friends But when the vote was announced he arose and moved to make the election of Barnett unanimous which was immediately carried The oilier ofleers were elected with out opposition Then Mr Everitt came to tpstfid todall ho could toVidvanco cite society Then upon reading of the contract that Mr Everitt had made wth himself in 1903 by which Uptodate Farming was made the official organ of the society for a period of PO years A motion was made to disavow said contract The result of the vote was that only 15 votes were recorded in favor of the contract Then couple to this contract his proposed revision of tho constitution and bylaws especially section 4 Duties of oficcrs which Is as follows The President shall have general supervision of the so cietys headquarters and Its activities the field Ho shall employ a competent secretary and other help as ne cessary to give corect and efficient service and he shall determine the salaries paid He shall also select a

for the National Un- IIO or delegate this authority to oth under his supervision He shall all charters and commissions with the Secretary or delegate thus authorizing and perform the duties that properly devolves on an executive of ice There are specific charges against oxPresjdent not mentioned hero that would Salsfy the most exacting that can be given later If necessary this article is getting too long Now dear readers does it seem un reasonable that a convention made up of the best and most earnest men from the various State county and local unions of twenty States sent to la

Everitt for gluing us tho plan of the A B of EffetwJjuweconslder the continued hpn orf and praise he could have received had he proved true to the trust reposed In him Then on the pthqr hand when we

brilliant scene characterized the meeting of the Sixtieth Congress today In the Senate and House of Representatives there were notable gatherings In the galleries or representatives of the of ficial society of the Capital The coming together for the first time of men who have been elected to the Senate and the House about 100 of whom have not before served in Con gress made the occasion one of par ticular interest The striking scene of the day were in the House of Representatives where the formal selection ofv Joseph G Cannon to again be Speaker of that body and the designation by the Dem ocrats of John Sharp Williams as their lead r were occasslons for ovlations to those gentlemen The vast hall of the House of Rep resentatives rang with the cheerS of Republicans and Democrats for their leaders end the Speaker received as watm a reception from members of the minority as he did from his own party y BRYAN ON THE SPOT The appearance of William Jennings Bryan on the floor of the House also was the occasion for enthusiastic cheer ing by the Democrats When the adoption of rules for the government of the House during the Sixtieth Congress came up the rules of the last Congress were opposed by John Sharp Williams and he was joined in the opposition by Democrats and by a single Republican Mr Coop er of Wisconsin The old rules were declared to be too autocratic placing too much power in the hands of the Speaker but Lifter a somewhat acrimonious discus sion they were adopted by a party vote Comtttecs were appointed by both houses to Inform the President that Congress lied met and was ready to receive any message he might wish to communicate New Senators and Representatives were sworn In and both houses ad journed out of respect to the memory of members who have died during the recess of Congress Although it was a foregone conclusion that Speaker Cannon would get a majority vote there was intense interest taken in the announcements by the members of their choice of candidates for presiding officer of the House While the voting was going on neither Speaker Cannon nor Representative Williams was present but their political followers and tho oc cupants of the galleries waited im patiently for them to bo brought In to the chamber The roll call showed the following result for Speaker Joseph G Can non 207 John Sharp Williams 154 A committee consisting of

tariff law could not with wisdom suchreas ours sro scru + excessivedproper revenue ed and that our foreign trade Is en couraged There must always be as n minimum a tariff which will not ouly allow for the collection of an ample revenue but which will at least make good the difference In cost of produc flow hero and abroad that is the dlf ference In the labor cost hero and abroad for the well being of the wage worker must ever be u cardinal point of American policy The question should be approached purely from n business standpoint both the time and the manner of the change being such as to arouse the minimum of agitation and disturbance in the business world and to give the least play for selfish unit factional motives The sole con sldcration should be to see that the sum total of changes represents the public good This means that the sub ject cannot with wisdom hti dealt with- In the year preceding a presidential election because ns a iratter of fact experience has conclusively shown that at such a time it is Impossible to get men to treat it from the standpoint of the public good In my judgment the wise time to deal with the matter Is Immediately utter such election Income Tax and Inheritance Tax When our tax laws are revised the of an Income tax and an In- eritance tux should receive the care fun attention of our legislators In my Judgment both othese taxes should be part of our system of fed eral taxation I speak diffidently about the Income tax because one scheme for an Income tax was declared unconsti tutional by the supreme court while In addition it is n difficult tax to admin islet In Its practical working unit great care would have to be exercised to SOP that it was not evaded by the very men whom it was most desirable to have taxed Nevertheless n graduated I Income tax of the proper type would lc n desirable feature of federal taxa tlou and it is to be hoped that one may be devised which the supreme court will declare constitutional The Inheritance tax however is tar better method of taxation The government has the absolute right to decide ns to the terms upon which a man stall receive n bequest from anI ther and this point In the devolution property Is especially appropriate till Imposition of a tax Laws 1m poshag snob taxes have repeatedly been placed upon he national statute boos ns repeatedly declared coustitii by the courts suit these laws the progressive principle int Is after a certain amount Is reach the bequest or gift In life or death Increasingly burdened nnd the rate taxation Is Increased In proportion- to the remoteness of blood of tits rows receiving the bequest These principles recognized already in the leading nations of the world Germanys Inheritance Tax i The German law is especially interesting to us because it wakes the In- eritance tax an imperial measure while allotlng to the Individual states the empire n portion of the pro coeds and permitting them to Impose taxes In addition to those imposed by e Imperial government Small Inner ltances are exempt but the tax Is so sharply progressive that when the In lieritance Is still not very large pro tided it in not un agricultural or a for loud it Is taxed at the rate of Vfi per cent If It goes to distant reuthcKIThere Is no reason why In States the national government should not impose Inheritance taxes In lIeldlE

ruin of the entire country but proposals for legislation such an this herein advocated are directly op posed to this class of socialistic th ories Enforcement of the Law A few years ago there wasloud that thlrlnw coulll pot be i tyoked against wealthy offenders Is no Ruch complaint now The tours of the drn ment of Justice during Uh last fiW y111111 has been such as to make it evident that no man stands above the law that no corporation Is so wealthy that It cannot be held to ac count Everything that can t be done under the existing lad and with the existing state of public opinion which so profoundly influences both thecourta nnd Juries has been done but the law themselves need strengthening They should be made more definite so that no honest man can be led unwittingly to break them and so that the rea wrongdoer can bo readily punished Moreover there must be the public opinion back of the laws or the laws themselves will be of no avail The two great evils in the execution of our criminal lawn tOday are sentimentality and technicality For the latter the remedy must come from the hands of the legislatures the courts and the law yers The other must depend for its cure upon the gradual growth of a sound public opinion which shall Insist that regard for the law and tine de mands of reason shall control all other influences and emotions In the jury box Both cf these evils must be re moved or public discontent with tho criminal law will continue Injunctions a Instances of abuse in the granting of Injunctions In labor disputes con tinue to occur and the resentment In the minds of those who feel that their rights are being Invaded and their lib erty of action and of speech unwar mutably restrained continues likewise tp grow Much of the attack on the use of the process of Injunction Is wholly without warrant but I am con strained to express the belief that for some of It there Is warrant This ques tion is becoming one of prime Impor tance and unless the courts will deal with it in effective manner It Is cer tam ultimately to demand some form of legislative action It would be most unfortunate for our social welfare if we should permit many honest and law abiding citizens to feel that they bad just cause for regarding our courts with hostility I earnestly commend to the attention of the congress this matter so that some way may be de vised which will limit the abuse of in junctions and protect those rights which from time to time It unwarrant ably Invades Moreover discontent Is often expressed with the use of the process of Injunction by the courts not only in Ittbor disputes but where state laws are concerned I refrain from discussion of this qucstiqn as tam Informed that it will soon receive the consideration of the supreme court The process of Injunction is an es sential adjunct of the courts doing Its work well pnd as preventive measures are always better than remedial the wise use of this process is from every standpoint commendable But where Is recklessly or unnecessarily used the abuse should be censured above all by the very men who are properly anxious to prevent any effort to shear the courts of this necessary power The courts decision must be final The protest Is only against the conduct of Individual judges In needlessly uutlci patlng such final decision or In the- tyrannical use of what Is nominally n temporary Injunction to accomplish what is in fact a permanent decision- The president urges the passage of a model employers liability act for the territoriestojured wngeworkers better lie em phatically Indorses the eight hour day The president urges the states to fight the child and womaq labor evil He says The national government has as un ultimate resort for control of child labor the use of the interstate commerce clause to prevent the products of child labor from entering into Interstate tom merce But before using this it ought certainly to enact model laws on the subject for the territories under Its own Immediate control Presidential Campaign Expenses Under our form of government vot ng Is not merely a right but a duty nnd moreover fundamental suit nec essary duty if a man is to be a good It is well to provide that car porations shall not contribute to lreHII dential or national campaigns and fur thermore to provide for the publica tion of both contributions and cxpyndl tures There is however always dun ger in laws of this kind which from enforcemente obeyed only by the honest and tins obeyed by the unscrupulous so as to act only as a penalty upon honest ment

eight armored cruisers and two other battleships will meet him In San Fran cisco whither certain torpedo destroy ers are also going No fleet of such size tins ever made such a voyage and r It will be
