Samuel Gom (Pera 1 again fighting for Ms official ( .'life as president of the American Fed- ' f ration of Labor. i' : This is no new thing for Gompers. i-'But each succeeding convention his I'task grows more difficult. JCach year the hosts of insurgency are added to by ' 'desertion from 1 lie staudpat ranks. r " There Is a general feeling tliat he foresees a change, fur. at the opening; of the convention, now 1'n session here, he dooliiied to tw a candidate for re- i electron, contenting himself with saying . J that If reelected Me would serve. . Uorapers ha,. been president of the federation wltfi an intermission of one 'year, since 1SS2. He is 63 years old. He baa ruled autocratically. Ha Iihh : built up a "machine" with a "steam roller" attachment. With the machine running: smoothly, no one man In Amer ica has greater power than Gompers. From without he Is practically unas sailable. His danger lies within the great organization which he has helped to found. Ills enemies cay he is old fashioned. In the flood of resolutions introduced . In the first days of the convention there ; were at least two aimed at the Gompers "machine," and two others In which Gompers strikes back. They Are After Elm. J. Mahlon Barnes, of the International Cigar Makers, Gompers' own craft, asks that the appointment of the four most - . important committees, on resolutions. on laws, on the report of the executive cc unc 11, and on adjustment, be taken way from the president and made elec tive. If the Barnes resolutions are carried, Gorafvera witl be crushed. Tba resolution of Geo. L. Berry, of the pressmen, cailin for the formation of a national labor party and a political program, is met by an apparently sim ilar one offered by J. & Hall, of Wal lace, Idaho, supposedly acting for the "machine.' Hall's resolution calls for a commit tee of nine delegates, to be appointed, by the president, which shall draw up a . political platform which shall be ac- Opted by the convention. Gompers being an enemy of political activity by trade unions. Is expected, if the Hall resolution goes through, to name men who will draw up a platform bo faulty that the convention will re ject It It may be that the Gompers "steam roller? will again flatten out the ln ... eurgents as has been done before, "but," nay the Insurgents, "if not this' year. next." . Many of the' insurgents are against an attempt to elect a hew president of . the federation at this time on the ground that any gain which might be made along- progressive lines would be lost In the turmoil resulting from entirely new control ot the federation. They urge that every effort be put forth toward electing; progressive delegates to the ex ecutive council and toward trimming in appointive power of the president Work la Bight. With the thirty-third convention of the American Federation of Labor half over, and all of the Important resolutions jet to be acted upon, delegates are fac . lng a hard grind during the remaining . kIx days, and It is probable that night sessions will be in order. Hot debates are expected on several big questions before the convention, es pecially on a resolutlou from Delegate Fi. A. Arnold of the Brotherhood of Painters, in which Arnold makes an at tack on ministers who are prominent In their activities against strikers in West Virginia and Michigan, and asks the fed eration to oppose any religious move ment harmful to the labor movement. This Is the first time that the ques tion of religion has been brought be fore the American Federation of Laborj and many delegates are open In their charge that It was introduced in an at tempt to embroil labor in an internal tonfic.t and thus defeat Its ends. This resolution has already resulted In two hours' furious debate before the committee to which it was referred Without any decision being reached. Reed college has commenced an im portant series of lectures on the re lation of the citizen and tlio city. They will be delivered each Tuesday evening at 8 o'clock in the public library until January 29, by Professor V. V. Og burn. Also before other . audiences throughout tho city that desire them. The purposo Is to contribute to the knowledge a voter should have In order to perform his dutUs t' the public. The flrat was given at the library lust Tuesday evening. "The purpose of thene tdx lectures on tho government of vne city of rort land Is solely to give Information," said Professor Ocburn. "The first lecture alms to give defi nite facts concerning the forms of our city government. In Inter lectures concrete illustrations will show the government at work. It Isn't th pur pose of the lectures to support nny par ticular man or group of men. No par ticular administrations nre being muck raked. No special theory of govern ment, socialistic or individualistic. Is being advocated. ' Purpose is Bet Forth. The purpose is to si t before the voters certain facts, that all citizens ougiit to know. It is desired that every citizen in Portland should hear these lecture. They are to be given In dif ferent lecture hulls nil over the city. Kvcry person In this audience can help the cause of good government by bring ing other citizens to hear the lectures or by arranging for tho 1 enures to be riven In some part of the city. "If the citizens would take Interest In our city government, our most seri ous problem of city government would disappear like the morning; mist. "People do not realize how much our city government can affect our dally lives. They can give us pure water, pure food and pure air. ' They can help to determine our monthly rent bills They can diminish, poverty and increase employment. s ' Questions are Important. "Aren't these things Important enough to compel us to take Interest In our city government? Are our, taxes high? Do we know why? Do we know what our taxes are spent for? Is Portland as healthy as other ' cities? What can be done to make Portland more healthy? Do we know whether Portland Is pro tecting lives and property as well as It should? Does Portland live up to Its possibilities of being the most beautiful city on the Pacifio coast? What is Portland doing to better the social conditions of its citizens? "These are some of the questions that we shajl try to throw light on In these lectures." Only 60 Per Cent Register, Professor Ogburn called attention to the proportion of voters who register. registered prior to the election of mayor vote to register. The population of Portland Is 25ff,- 000," he said. "There are In the city 191.600 persons of voting age; there are 146.000 persons who are eligible to PcTPorfaderoltaKe Toio Fopvbhn UYciWTz&axk Men frWomen of voting qgei. "' CI9LOOO " ; ;klffri .

Of this number 76,680 had registered prior to the election of moyar In June, 1913 an Important election, and only 45,203 men and women voted in that election. "That is to say, only one half of those who could vote this year in Portland cared enoiign about It to reg ister, and not one third of those eligible to register voted. There were 100,000 men and women In Portland who could have voted for mayor last June and did not care enough about it to make th effort. Men Show wore Interest. 'Taking registration as an Index, thei women or Portland have not shown so far as much interest in their city government as the men have shown.' There are In the city 110,000 men of voting age; there are 84,000 eligible to register. Of this number 63,493 have registered.

In other words, 63 per cent of the men eligible to register last May did register, while only 39 per cent of the women registered. Fifteen thousand more women will have to register in order to show as much Interest as tho men have shown. "Whether all women believe In equal suffrage or not, now that they have it, the thing for them to do Is to register and vote. There are 88,000 wqnien who have not registerea wno ought t,o do so. The facts of the situ ation now demand that they exercise the rights of citizenship." Registration is Described. The speaker described the duties in connection with registration the per sonal signing of name and address In the registration book at the court house at any time prior to 30 days before an election. , "The law also provides." he- said, "that every voter, new or old, whether. nereioiore tie has registered or wheth cr be has not registered, must regis ter after- a certain date which is to be fixed by the county court. . It will probably be January 1, 1914. ' The" date has not yet been set because the city Is to be redistrlcted, making all ' the precincts smaller so that yoa will not have to go so far to vote. "The new law provides further that once you have registered after this day, you will not ever' have to reg ister again unless vou have failed . to vote at an election or unless you have moved your residence' in the precinct in which you were registered, in either of these ' events"' you, must re register. Voters Should All X filter. "Whatever the , law, the important thing is for every voter to register, The system of preferential voting usea ai me last general election was described, and it was explained that under the new. commission form of government both political parties and wards are abolished In nominations and elections. There was interesting description ..or the means of adminis tering city business in the city hall then detailed statement of the duties and powers of each department. Pro- fessor Ogburn concluded with these words: "Portland is a larger city today. But in many ways we have governed the city as if It were a village. It was a village 15 years ago. It is now a city. Our attitude toward its government, however, hasn't kept pace) with its growth. "Portland will contain !,00o',000 peo ple some day- and will stretch from the plains of Tualatin valley on the south to the Columbia on the north. We must build for the future."
