ISSUES A PROCLAMATION Programme of Campaign Addressed to IVorklngmen and All Friends of Cause Voice in Govern ment Demanded. WASHINGTON, July 22. The executive council of the American Federation of Labor today made good its repeated declaration of its intention to enter the field of politics and to urge all friends of organized labor to elect public officers known to be favorable to labor's cause. The headquarters of the federation coun cil today Issued Its "campaign- pro gramme," addresed "To all organized labor and friends in the United States." The document sets out that the trades , union movement has kept, and proposes to keep, pace with the rapid change in industrial affairs, and that the working people cannot hope to maintain their rights or a progressive position in the varying phases of modern society unles they organize and use all those functions which as workmen and citizens it is their hope and their duty to exercise. It Is declared that labor makes no de mand on government and society which is not equally accorded to all the people of this country, and that "it can and will be satisfied with nothing else." Labor Iiaws Are Not Heeded. The proposed campaign is based upon the allegation that little attention has been paid to the enactment of laws pre pared by organized labor and presented to Cohgress for relief of those wrongs and the attainment of the rights to which labor and the common people are justly entitled and which are essentially neces sary for their welfare. The council issued a word of warning that the movement must not degenerate Into a ecramble for office, but that It should be a determined effort, absolutely free from all partisanship, to secure the legislation we deem necessary and essen tial to the welfare and happiness of all our people. It says expressly that if a Congress man or state legislator has proven him self a true friend to the rights of labor, he should be supported and no candidate nominated against htm. Following Is the substantially complete text of the pro gramme: Text of the Programme. The position of organized labor upon the question of political action by the work ins' claas, their friends and sympathizers, has often been declared, but was more clearly et forth In the fallowing; declaration, unani mously adopted by the Nashville Convention of the American Federation of Labor In 180T, and often reaffirmed since: "Resolved, That the American Federa tion of Labor most firmly and unequivocally favor the Independent use of the ballot by the trade unionists and workmen, united regardless of party, that we may elect men from our own ranks to make new laws and administer them along the lines laid down In the legislative demands of the American Fed eration of Labor, and at the same time se cure an Impartial judiciary that will not gov ern us by arbitrary Injunctions of the courts, nor act as the pliant tools of corporate wealth. "Resolved, That aa our efforts are centered against all forms of Industrial slavery and economic wrong, we must also direct our utmost energies to remove all forms of po litical servitude and party slavery, to the end that the working people may act as a unit at the polls at every election." We have been ever watchful to carry the purposei( of that declaralon lno effect. At times we met with partial success, yet, with in the past few years claims and promises made In platforms or on the hustings by po litical parties and politicians, and especially -by the present dominant party, have been neither justified nor performed. The relief asked for has not been granted. Congress lias turned a deaf ear to the voices of the masses of our people; and, true to our dec laration, we now appeal to the working peo ple, aye to all the American people unitedly, to demonstrate their determination that this Republic of ours shall continue to be of, for and by the people, rather than of, for and by the almixhty dollar. Legislators Owned by Interests. Attention Is called not only to Congres sional and legislative Indifference, and hos tility to the interests of labor, but also to the Interests of the large mass of all our peo ple. The press for months has been burdened with exposures of the corruption and graft In high circles. The great Insurance oom fanles, the trusts, the corporations, the so called captains of Industry, have Indeed be come the. owners of the legislators of our country. Public officials, many of whom have the cry of "stop thief 1" . nearest the tip of the tongue, have been elected through these very agencies and the contributions from them. If It has come to a condition In this, the Greatest and wealthiest nation on earth, that that -the almighty dollar is to be worshiped to aa extent of forgetting principle, con science, uprightness and justice, the time has arrived for labor and its friends to raise their voices In condemnation of such degeneracy, and to invite all reform forces to Join with It In relegating Indifference to the people's in terests, corruption and graft to political ob livion; to raise the standard of legislation by the election of sincere, progressive and hon est men who,' while worshipping money less, will honor conscience, justice and humanity tnore. We recommend that central bodies and local Unions proceed without dflay by the election of delegates to meet in conference, or convention, to formulate plans to further the Interests of this movament, and In accordance with the plan herein outlined at the proper time and In the proper manner nominate candidates who will unquestionably stand for the en actment into law of labor and progressive measures. Need a Stinging Rebuke. The first concern of all should be the posi tive defeat of those who have been hostile or Indifferent to the Just demands of labor. A stinging rebuke to them will benefit not only the tollers, but the people of the entire coun try. Wherever both parties Ignore labor's legis lative demands a straight labor candidate should be nomlnatd. so that honest men may have the opportunity in exercising their franchise to vote according to their con science instead of being compelled either to refrain from voting or to vote for the can didate and the party they must In their Innermost souls despise. Where a Cor.irreFsman or State Legislator has proven himself a true friend to the rights of labor he should be supported and no candidate nominated against him. This movement must not degenerate into a scramble for office. It should be a de termined effort, free, absolutely, from par tisanship of every name and character, to secure the legislation we deem necssary and essential to the welfare and happiness of all our people. As the present objects of this movement are purvly in the line of legisla tion, all efforts should .be concentrated upon the election of members of Congress and the various State Legislatures. To make this our movement the most ef- , fcctlve the utmost care should be taken to j nominate only such union men whose known Intelligence, honesty and faithfulness are con spicuous. They should be nominated -as straight labor representatives and stand and be supported as auch by union men and thetr friends and sympathizers-. Irrespective of pre vious political a filiation, "Wherever It Is apparent that an entirely in dependent labor candidate cannot be elected, efforts should be made to scure such sup port by Indorsement of candidates by the minority party in the districts and by such other progressive elements as will Insure the election of labor representatives. Example in Great Britain. All observers agree that the campaign of our fellow-workmen of Great Britain has had a wholesome effect upon the government, as well as the interests of Its wage-earners, and the people generally of that country. In the ?ast British elections 64 trade unionists were elected to Parliament. If the British workmen with their limited franchise, ac complished so much by their united action, what may we In the United States not do with universal suffrage? In order to systematically carry out the policy and work necessary to this campaign, the executive council of the American Fed eration of Labor has selected the following members as the "labor representation com mittee" : Samuel Gompers, James O'ConnelL Frank Morrison. Those earnestly engaged In our movement must, we repeat, be guided by the fact that the principles for which we stand must be of primary consideration, and . office, sec on d- CREATOR OF DOG PARADISE. tmaxmmmm i I 1 ' Alfred Millard. Alfred Millard, cashier of the United States National Bank, and 'one of the wealthiest men In Omaha, has been appointed by Mayor Dahlman and confirmed by the City Council as dogcatcher of that city. Mr. Millard, who Is president of the Humane Society of Omaha, and one of the officers of the National Hu mane Society, applied for the position of dogcatcher. "I am very grateful to the Mayor and the Council for giving; me this position," he said. "I shall so conduct the office that more respect will attach to It and the unfortunate dogs that may go .to the pound will receive better treatment." ary. We ask our fellow-workers and friends to respond to this call and to make of it a popular uprising of honest men, and to see to It that the best, most conscientious men of labor or their supporters are chosen as their representatives. Headquarters Wants Reports. Reports and returns should be made to the headquarters of the labor representation committee, whi-ch will be located in the offices of the American Federation of Labor, who will , give the best possible Informa tion and advice on uniform procedure. Whatever vantage ground or Improved con ditions have come to the workers of our coun try were not brought to them on stiver plat ters; they are the result of their better or ganisation and their higher intelligence; of the sacrifices they have made and the In dustrial battle-scars of many contests. The progress of the tollers has not been due to kindness or consideration at the hands of the powers that be, but achieved in spite of the combined bitter hostility of mendacious greed, corporate corruption, legislative antag onism and judicial usurpation. Labor demands a distinctive and larger share in the governmental affairs of our coun try; it demands justice; It will be satisfied with nothing- less. The declaration Is signed by the executive council of the Federation, consisting of: Samuel Gompers, president; James Duncan, first vice-president; John Mitchell, second vice-president; James O'ConnelL third vice president; Max Morris, fourth vice-president; Dennis A. Hayes, fifth vice-president; Dan iel J. Keefe, sixth vice-president; William D. Huber, seventh vice-president; Joseph F. Val entine eighth vice-president; John B. Lennon, treasurer; Frank Morrison, secretary. BAD WRECK IN THE SOUTH Freight and Passeilger Trains Sleet Head On. CHARLOTTE, N. C. July 22.

THREAT IN MANIFESTO CZAR CALLS OJf MOUJIKS TO RE PRESS REBELLION. Riots in. Streets of St. Petersburg Begin W ith the Fall of Darkness. ST. PETERSBURG, July 22. An im perial manifesto Issued tonight, which is regarded as both a threat and an appeal to the Emperor's millions of moujiks to Join in suppressing the revolution under promise of land, sum mons the "faithful sons of holy Rus sia." Many Liberals consider this a direct Incitement of the Black Hun dreds. In spite of this incitement, the day passed with comparative quiet In the capital, and street rioting only began with the advent of darkness, but the collisions generally were on a small scale. At Sedovl crowds with Btones had the gendarmes and police on the run, when a squad of Cossacks came to the rescue and charged and dispersed them with their whips. The trouble grew out of a raid on a teahouse by Russian patriots that is. Black Hun dreds before the advent of the Cos sacks, who fired three volleys in the air. A regular battle with stones en sued. Three officers and a number of policemen were wounded and scores badly beaten by the Cossacks, but no one was killed. About midnight there were rumors of heavy fighting at the Narva gate, where the massacre of the followers of Father Gapon took place 18 months ago. today. The troops there are said to have fired Beveral volleys, and It is reported that there were a number of casualties. Other collisions took place late to night in Nlcholaevsky and Pushkin streets. At the Seminovsky barracks a crowd gathered and broke the win dows with a shower of stones, where upon a detachment of cavalry appeared and charged and dispersed the crowds with their swords. A number of per sons were badly cut. There was no demonstration at the Taurlde Palace, which was In the pos session of the military. No one was allowed to enter the palace. Upon a column In front of the palace the ukase dissolving Parliament was post ed during the day. It is understood that a search of the building was made in the belief that it was mined and ready to be blown up at 1 o'clock Mon day morning. i KAISER AS CZAR'S EVIIi GEXITJS Story That Long Telegram From Berlin Preceded Ukase's Issuance. ST. PETERSBURG, July 22.-Ton!ght Btorles were industriously spread that the Emperor's final decision to dissolve Par liament was not taken until he had com municated with Berlin. According to one story, a member of the German Embassy went to the telegraph office Saturday night and engaged a wire for direct com munication with Emperor William, and only after receiving and transmitting a 1000-word dispatch from Emperor William to Emperor Nicholas was the ukase finally signed. The Inference intended to be drawn Is that Emperor William is Emperor Nicholas' evil genius and false adviser. The trouble with this story Is that the sovereigns would not be forced to resort to such roundabout methods of communi cation, as direct wires are available at Peterhof. Besides, the story Is traceable to sources which usually seek to make Emperor William responsible for all of Europe's ills. UNWISDOM OF THE CZAR. Parisians Are Much Distressed at Dissolution of Parliament. PARIS. July 22. The dissolution of the Russian Parliament attracted widespread comment and disappointment among the people in this city. Sentiment In all quar ters, including governmental circles. Is unanimous concerning the unwisdom of the precipitate action of Emperor Nich olas and the gravity of the situation re sulting therefrom. The Temps expresses this view when It says this morning: "The Emperor's counsellors have com mitted a fault which probably is irrep arable. The dissolution of Parliament and the postponement of its next meeting to March 5. 1907, means that Parliamentary siardntees have been completely sus pended for seven months. The govern ment dismissed the assembly without at tempting anything in the nature of a loyal collaboration, probably hoping that The Happiest Child in Port land has a Roosevelt Bear Headquarters for Artistic PictoreFraming By Expert Framers Good Merchandise Only Quality Considered Our Prices Are Always the Lowest Agency for Columbia Yarns Window Shades Made To Order The New Col lege Blouses Have Smart Colored Collars Cuffs and Tie Great Clean-Up Sale of Summer Silks Thousands of Yards Below Their Present Actual Cost Absolute clearance of the most desirable Summer Silks at price-concessions which establish new records for wonderful values in our establishment.

"Emperor Nicholas, though personally sincere, was obligated to choose for or against Parliament, and his counsellors prevailed on him to decide to violate the promise lie made when convoking Par liament, whose votes have not justified the present measure of dissolution. The future therefore Is dark. The people had confldnce in the Emperor. What will be come of that confidence now? "Perhaps It Is vainly hoped a cham ber, elected In another manner, can be more easily controlled; perhaps It Is thought by means of repression to pre vent a meeting of a new Parliament al together. The government's lack of cour age In carrying out the new and diffi cult regime has placed the country In a crisis the dangers of which are immeasur able and the end of which cannot be fore seen." The Socialist Journals Indulge In violent attacks on "Czarism" and In condemna tion of repression of the people's will. RAVINGS OF RED HUNDREDS Proclamation Cited as Justification of Government's Action. ST. PETERSBURG, July 22. News received here concerning the reception In the province of the ukase dissolving Parliament show that there were no disorders, but It probably will be sev eral days before, the masses compre hend what has happened. The following proclamation, " which reads like the historic ravings of the French Revolution, and which was adopted by the Bed Hundreds, a revo lutionary organ In Baku, is cited in justification of the decision of the gov ernment to apply stern measures: "It Is the right of holy vengeance which calls upon you to destroy all enemies of the people. Let the bomb and the bullet carry death to the para sites and executioners of the people and establish antl-bourgeolse terror. Fallen Is Boganchaloff, who dared to deny the demands of the workmen; fallen is Sko leleff, the exploiter, who refused us money'fallen is the spy Dolshaleff, the faithful dog of the state, who would not heed the word of the liberal eunuchs at St. Petersburg in favor of a propa ganda of deeds and not words. The time has come to unfurl the black flag of anarchy. Down with the false par liament. Long live murder and anar chistic communism." STATUS OF COUNCIL NOT KNOWN No Mention of Upper House Made in Czar's Ukase. ST. PETERSBURG, July 22. The status of the Council of the Empire seems to be In doubt. Neither the ukase nor mani festo mentions it, but whether this was by design or oversight has not yet been cleared up. As a co-ordinate branch of Parliament It must be adjourned or dis solved when the lower house is prorogued, but It remains to be seen whether new elections will be ordered for the upper chamber. The Associated Press learns that the Council of the Empire is considered to be In recess, but that special departments of the council, composed of appointed members, will continue sitting. No new elections for the council wiU be held. The Associated Press also learns that a manifesto written by a member of the ministry will be submittted at 11 o'clock Sunday morning to Emperor Nicholas. Moreover, It is stated positively "that the new Parliamentary elections will be based upon universal suffrage. Hilkoff Donbts Railroad Strike. LONDON, July 22. Prince Hilkoff. ex Minister of Railways, and who Is the representative of Russia at the Inter parliamentary conference, was utterly surprised at the news of the dissolution of Parliament. He said, however, that the Parliament , had been a great disap pointment to many. Rash promises had been made, which aroused great hopes, but none of them was kept. The peas ants in particular, he added, had been grievously disillusionized by its failure to fulfill promises regarding agrarian re forms. Prince Hilkoff doubted whether there would be a railroad strike, saying the men were tired of strikes and now en joyed good pay. They lost enormous sums in the last strike. Order Restored at Teheran. ST. PETERSBURG, July 22. According to a telegram received here, order has been restored at Teheran and martial law suspended. Upton Sinclair says that he believes he holds the record for the number of times a manu script hae been refused. His first attempt at a book, "Prince Hagen." was rejected 37 times by 16 magazine and 22 publishing house. CZAR'S WILL IS SUPREME TEXT OF UKASE DISSOLVING PARLIAMENT. Amelioration Is Promised the Lot of the Peasants of the Empire. ST. PETERSBURG, July 22. Following Is the text of the imperial manifesto dis solving Parliament: We called the representatives ef the na tion by our will to the work of productive 'legislation, confiding firmly in divine clem ency and believing In the great and brilliant future of our people. We expected benefits for the country from their labors. We pro posed great reforms in all departments of the national life. We have always devoted the greatest care to the removal of the igno rance of the people by the light of instruc tion and to the removal of the burdens of to people by facilitating conditions of agri cultural work. A cruel disappointment has befallen our expectatlona The representatives of the nation. Instead of applying themselves to the work of productive legislation, strayed into a sphere beyond their competence and have been making comments on the Imperfections of the fundamental laws, which can only be modified by our Imperial wllL In short, the representatives of the nation have under taken really Illegal acts, such as an appeal to the nation by the Parliament. The peasants, disturbed by such anomalies, seeing no hope for the amelioration of their lot. started, in a number of districts, to open pillaging, destruction of property ,.and dis obedience of the law. But our subjects ought to remember that improvement In the lot of the people is only possible under conditions of perfect order and tranquillity. We shall not allow arbitrary Illegal action, and snail impose our Imperial will on the disobedient by all the force of the power of the state. We call on well-disposed Russians to unite for the maintenance of legal power and the restoration of peace to our dear fatherland. May God help us to realize the chlefest and the most Important of our tasks, that of the reform of the peasants' laws. Our will on this point Is unshakable, and Russian .hus bandmen, without other people's property be ing encroached upon, will be supplied. In cases where peasants' lands are too small, with legal and honest means for the enlarge ment of their property. Representatives of other classes will, at our request, devote all efforts to the realization ot this great task, which will be performed definitely In a leg islative manner by a future Parliament. In dissolving Parliament, we confirm our Immutable Intention of keeping this institu tion, and in conformity with this intention we appoint March 8. 190T, the date for the convocation of the new Parliament by ukase addressed to the Senate. With an unshakable belief In divine clem ency and the good sense of the Russian peo ple, we shall expect from the new Parlia ment a realization of our efforts by the In troduction of legislation In accordance with the requirements of regenerated Russia. Faithful sons "of Russia, your Emperor calls on you to unite with him for the re generation of the holy fatherland. We believe these grants In thought and action, and that, thanks to their assiduous efforts, the glorious Russia will continue to shine. DRUNKEN COSSACK IS "KTTT,T"n Jewish Population of Odessa Is Fearful of a Massacre. ODESSA. July 22. The Jewish popula tion here Is again in the greatest anxi ety In consequence of the following In cident: A tipsy Cossack wandered through the Jewish quarter brandishing his saber and shouting, "Death, to the Jews." An old Jew, fearing a disturb ance, endeavored to pacify the Cossack, who replied by striking out with his saber, without however, injuring the old man. Bystanders Intervened and in a melee which ensued the Cossack was killed. The authorities attached much Import ance to the affair and charged the Jew ish population with premeditated murder. The military prefect ordered the rabbi to warn Jews not to appear on the streets during the funeral of the Cossack, oth erwise there might be a massacre. The greatest alarm is felt, and the streets are guarded. , READY TO STRIKE AT MOSCOW All Industries, Including Railroads and Telegraph, to Be Tied Up. MOSCOW, July 22. The greatest con sternation was created here by the news of the dissolution of Parliament. It is expected this action will precipitate revo lutionary outbursts throughout Russia Its effect on the peasantry Is especially dreaded. It Is feared that tomorrow, un der the spur of the proletariat organiza tion, which probably will order a general strike, they will Immediately begin uni versal jacquerie. At a meeting of over 400 delegates of proletariat organizations Friday final plans for. a general strike were perfected. The council of workmen's deputies, elected to act with the council in St. Petersburg and the Group of Toil of Parliament, passed a resolution that If the govern ment dispersed Parliament and used re pressive measures to suppress, a mass movement of peasants and a general strike In all Industries and on the rail roads and telegraph lines in Russia should follow. Branch organizations were to be notified to await the signal by telegraph In order that there may be no chance for a fiasco.. ' The object of the strike Is based on the demand for universal suffrage, which the leaders declare should decide the future form of government in Russia. A special warning was Issued to put the strike in force gradually and peacefully, and assur ance was given that at the proper time a majority of the troops would join in the movement. Mrs. Holman Will Not Talk. PITTSBURG, July 22. No statement will be made by Mrs. Holman, mother of Mrs. Harry K. Thaw, relative to the letters found In the effects of Stanford White, and alleged to have been written by Mrs. Holman to White before the marriage of her daughter to young Thaw. Mrs. Holman refused to see anyone on the topic of the letters and all news paper men who visited the Holman home in Brooklyn today were met on the porch by Mrs. Holman, who refused to discuss the matter.
