Denver, Colo., Nov. 21. Samuel E.
Gompers, who has been president of
the American Federation of Labor since
1888 with .the exception of one year,
was reelected to that office by the
delegates to the annual convention here
today, by an almost unanimous vote.
But one delegate voted against Oompers,
Charles Heske, president of the Wis
consin state federation of labor.
Oompers' reelection comes as a vindi
cation of his course in taking the Am
erican Federation of Iabor into nation
al politics and working for the election
of William J. Bryan during the last
national campaign.
AJtnough the convention has been in
session for two weeks and several at
tempts had been made to organize an
opposition to Oompers, they all failed
and the president of the organization
was swept into office with a great
demonstration. ,
James Duncan was reelected first vice
president by acclamation."
Daniel Keeie. one of the vice nresi-
dents of the federation, was forced to
decline renominatlon by the recommen
dation of Oompers' report which stated
mat - au wno oo not agree "with the
political policy or -the executive council
of the American Federation of Labor
should resign lrom office.
Keefe was given permission to make
a personal explanation of his reasons
for declining to acceDt the nomination.
tie aald the adoption of the report of
the committee on the president's renort
compelled him to leave the executive
council as a matter of principle.
I have voted Jlhe Republican ticket
for 32 years and will continue in that
faith until my conscience tells me to
do otherwise, declared i Keefe, in ex
planation of his action In supporting
Taft In opposition to the recommendation-
of the executive council.
Keefe stated that he had no personal
quarrel with the executive council. He
was liberally applauded when he took
his seat.

Four years ago the contributions

the sum reached $8,000,000, exclusive of
amounts sent by state organisations
The report this year includes such state

Theodore Roosevelt, $1,000.
Andrew Carnegie, $25,000.
J. P. Moriran. $25,000.

Outside of these large amounts most
of the fund is made up of small con

contributors.
The report shows that the support
of the campaign did not come from the
railroads and banks but from the mer

a vast country to trade by water with
San Francisco, Portland, Seattle, Los
Angeles and other Pacific coast cities,
and contended that subsidies should be
firovided o that American steamship
Ines could compete wilh the vessels of
foreign nations.
This Ik the first time that Congress

Tokio, Nov. 21. That the rumors from

Ambassador O'Brien stated that U
must be admitted that Japan had an
influence in Manchuria that entitled

said, assured peace in the orient and

WORK FOR BETTER
Leading Citizens Plan Systematic Campaign to Secure
New Pavements, Parks and Boulevards Intend to
Make Portland City Beautiful Mass Meeting.
Why has this city bad streets anf
patched pavements, or none at all?
why are there no boulevards, no street
improvements now being planned for
Portland? Why Is not some start made
in the work of beautifying the city and
making all of Its streets possible at all
seasons of the year? Why is no start
made in the utilization of the big bond
issue authorised by the people at the
municipal election more than a year
ago?
These are questions which are being
asked by prominent men of the city, and
so Insistent Is the query becoming that
these men are planning: to de-vlse ways
and means by which the work may be
started and carried on to completion.
Yesterday afternoon a number of
prominent and progressive men of the
city met and discussed the problem. Be
cause of the delay and lall lance to
which the street Improvement work of
the city has been subjected. It Is the
desire of these men to evolve some
plan by "which the lonjr dreamed of era
of good streets and sightly boulevards
may be realized.
One of the men earnestly In favor of
some citizens' movement to accomplish
the purpose is William McMurray, gen
eral passenger agent of the Harrlman
lines. Mr. McMurray left last night for
San Francisco and will not return to
Portland before Thanksgiving. As soon

as he has returned, however, it Is the
nlan to call a meeting: of those inter
ested in the good street movement and
open a campaign tor tne purpose or se
curing more and better pavements and a
better street improvement system.
E. L. Thompson was another of the
men at the meeting yesterday who takes
an active Interest in the good streets
movement. Mr. Thompson believes
that the greatest advertisement Portland
could give to Itself would be a boule
vard, park and street system. He con
tends that the present condition of the
streets and ! lack of Improverra-nt
work does not advertise the city in any
(rood manner, but that should a complete
and orderly system of street Improve
ment work he begun that It would bring
Portland before the people of the coun
try as one of the most progressive
of the American cities.
What makes the acrltation all the more
earnest is the fact that the people of the
city havo by their votes showed their
desire for better streets. At the mu
nicipal election a year ago last June,
th neonlo of the cltv voted by a larite
majority to give ample funds for the
street improvements necessary . to make
Portland one of the noted cities of the
countrv. Because of this Indorsement
of the ernod street movement, the cam
paign now being Inaugurated will be
carried on an tne more earnestly.

The Inland Empire and Celllo-Fall

every two days, and give the Open
