In dustrial education in the public schools a a cure for labor ills and a means for supplying labor needs, denunciation of the methods of Samuel Gompers and ther labor leaders, protest against th st of the boycott and the blacklist, in corporation of the labor unions, so that employers may know that contracts will tart some foundation these were the fief demands made in the fifth annual oBTention of the National Citizens' In dus trial Association of America, held here. The convention was international Jul character, delegates being present from Canada, and associates of employ m and commercial bodies throughout the country were represented. Efcreet charges of trickery and misrep resentation were made against Samuel Gompers, president of the American Fed eration of Labor, by James A. Emery, secretary of the convention, President C. W. iPost and T. J. Mahoney of Omaha. The charges were based on the alleged misrepresentation of Justice of the Su preme Court Harlan and Holmes by Mr. Compers in advocating Jegislation before Congress, and on what was declared to be repeated and deliberate introduction of doetored" copies of injunction writs be fore a committee of the house. Especial care was taken by the con vention delegates, to dissipate the idea that the meeting was inimical to labor unions. President Post declared that any attempt to get away from high wages in times of prosperity should draw the re of the association and every member f it H denounced employers who took advantage of the national or their local associations to coerce their employes. "In eases of that kind," he said, "I'd far rather attack the employer than the labor union." His words were echoed by J. Y. Van Cleve, president of the National Asso ciation of Manufacturers, who lauded the onions, declared they were doing a great work in uplifting their membership, 90 per eent of which he said were law-abiding Americans, and insisted that the law should' eliminate the boycott and the Mack list. Mr Van Cleve also urged the aecessity for introducing into the public schools of the country divisions dedicat ed to industrial education, and- the es tablishment of industrial high schools for turning out of skilled mechanics. This question of public education along industrial lines was touched by almost every speaker. It is probable that the Association will work for the passage of the Davis bill, now before Congress, providing for an annual appropriation by the .federal government of $8,000,000 aw year for this purpose. Iu his annual report, Secretary Emery declared that the principle of the "open shop" was spreading rapidly throughout the United States. He sketched the lob bying done by labor in the 59th Congress and prophesied its activity in Congress this session would be renewed with greater activity than before. Dr. J. M. Oormick, secretary of the Mobile, Alabama, Employers' Associa tion, read a paper on "The Negro Labor Problem in the South." He urged the North to leave the South' hands free to cope with the question, and dwelt on the causes leading up to the present condition of the negro. Other papers were read by T. J. Mahoney, of Omaha, on "Government by Injunction;" J. J. Feeley, of Boston, on "The Legal Status of the Labor Union," and George Manly, of Denver, on "Industrial Conditions in the Rocky Mountain Region." The convention came to an end with a banquet, at which Congressman Little- field, of Maine, was the principal speak er. Resolutions were-adopted demanding enforcement of existing laws against il legal combinations whether of capital or labor; expressing confidence in the courts; ' urging that lecture courses be inaugurated before local associations on union labor and for the establishment of industrial classes in all public schools. The annual election of officers resulted in C. W. Post being unanimously re elected president; first vice-president, J. Wi Van Cleave of St. Louis; second vice president F. C. Neinemacher of Louis ville; third vice-president, A. C. Mar shall of Dayton, O., and treasurer, Major A C. Rosencranz of Evansville, Ind. Members of the board of directors elect ed were D M. Parry, Indianapolis ; ,G. B. Franks, Peoria, 111, and T. H. Brown of Sioux Falls, la. In the convention 514 employers as sociations and commercial bodies were represented, the total membership ex ceeding 5,000,000. - MAKES A DENIAL. LOS ANGELES, Oct. 14 Burr L. Harris, 'the 19-year-old negro boy, ar rested on a charge of attempting to as sassinate Miss Helen Mathekson by means of infernal machines sent her through the mails and left at the hotel of which she V the manager, has been arraigned and will have a preliminary hearing on October 18. In default of $5,000 bail he remains in jail. Harris steadfastly denies any con nection with the repeated attempts up on the life of Miss Mathewson and at tributes his arrest to spite upon her part. The police claim to have evi dence that all five of the infernal ma chines were prepared in the effort to kill the hotel proprietress. A Most Worthy Article.

S1MPT0NS IS FOUND (Continued on Page 8.) WASHINGTON. Oct. 14. The Inter state Commerce Commission received a visit from two distinguished Japanese gentlemen, who are seeking all informa tion obtainable on the railroad situation in the United States, especially private car lines. They were Motojiro Takatft, councilor of the Finance Department, and K. Noborisaka, councilor of the Transportation -Department of the im perial government railways of Japan. Both are from lokio. I hey were loaded un with all the books and other printed a material in the chief ckrk's office, but still did not seem satisfied, and they were introduced to members of the com mission. The Japanese and Chinese students are the most persistent seekers after information on the railroad question of any who call at the commission's office. They spend days and weeks at a time in the offices and then do not seem satisnea with what they get from the printed data at hand m the library and nies.- NOMINEE MUST CHOOSE PARTY. OLYMPIA.

"What is there to Orchard's confes sion?" he was asked. "I don't know. I will say this, how ever: I was in Boise at the time and saw Orchard there. He was trying, so he claimed, to buy a small ranch. ,"Whr did he implicate you In his con fession?" , "He's crazy. But he evidently had sense enough to implicate me so as to give credence to his story, as he must have realized that I, known to be there at the time, would add light to his lies. No doubt those who read his confession, when they read of me in the connection, believed them more than had my name been kept out." UimmmtTtOMMMM t Annie M.
