SEES PEEIL IN ORGANIZED LAEOK.
Presents a Long List of What lie Con
siders Sins of Omission and
Commission.
Washington, June 13. Henry F.
Deveus, of New York, assistant sec
retary of the Metal Trades' associa
tion, was before the industrial commis
sion yesterday. lie gave the employ
er's version of the Chicago settlement
with the International Machinists' as
sociation. He Kooke with gr-at confi
dence of the benefits to h- derived
from the arbitration clause in that
agreement, saying that he believed it
would prove an etlicieut method of set
tling all differences in the future. He
also expressed the opinion that a Loard
of arbitrators composed of men In the
work would be more acceptable than
a state board, because of the proba
bility that members of a state board
would not have the Information neces
sary to successful arbitrament.
Jumped on Labor I'nlon.
N. F. Thompson, secretary of the
southern Industrial convention, of
lluntsville, Ala., made a somewhat sen
sational attack upon labor unions. "La
bor organizations are today," said
"1 honipson, "the greatest menace to
this government that exists inside or
outside the pale of our national do
main. Their influence for the disrup
tion and disorganization of society Is
far more dangerous to the ierpetua
tion of our ogvernmeut in its purity
and power than would be the hostile
array on our borders of the armies of
the entire world combined." Thomp
son declared that he made this state
ment from years of close study and a
tieM of the widest opportunities for
observation, embracing the principal
industrial centers both of the north
and the south.
Ilia Objections to tlie Organization.
In supiort of his statement he said
that "on every hand, and for the
slightest provocation, all classes of or
ganized laltor stand ready to inau
gurate a strike, with all its attendant
evils, and that in addition to this
stronger ties of consolidation are be
ing urged ail over the country among
labor unions with the view of being
able to Inaugurate a sympathetic
strike that will em'brace nil classes of
labor, simply to redress the grievances
or right the wrongs of one class, how
ever remotely located or however un
just may be the demands of that
class." lie maintained that "organiza
tions teaching such theories should be
lield as treasonable in their charac
ter, and their leaders worse than
traitor to their country."
Kays They Are Socialistic
Thompson declared that many labor
leaders are open and avowed social
ists; that their organizations are weak
ening the ties of citizenship among
thousands of our people, in that they
have no other standard of community
obligations than what these organiza
tions Inculcuate; that they are creating
widespread disregard for the rights of
others: that they are destroying re
Sect for law aud authority among
the working classes; that they are
creating antagonisms between employ
er and employe: that they are destroy
ing the right of individual contract be
tween employers and employes, and
forcing upon employers men at ar
bitrary wages; and that they are bring
ing public reproach upon the judicial
tribunals of our country, by public
abuse of these triubunals, and often
open defiance of their judgments and
decrees, thus seeking to oreak down
the only safeguards of a free people,

RAILROAD NOTES AND PERSONALS
Tvm Connor, who for miny years
was a conductor for the Burlington
running out of this city, came in last
evening and was busy today shaning
hands with his old-time Plattsmouth
friends. Tom is now located at Be

der to protect the main line from be
ing damaged from this source, a large
force of rip rapers are now at work in
that viciniiy.
A Card Of Thanks.
I wish to say that I feel under lasting
obligations for what Chamberlain's
Cough Rem- dy has done for our family.
We have used it in so many cases of
coughs, lung troubles and whooping
cough, and it has always given the
most perfect satisfaction. We feel
greatly indebted to the manufacturers
of this remedy and wish them to please
accept our hearty thanks. Respect
fully, Mrs. S. Doty, Des Moines, Ia.

Death of Merrltt Anderson.
Allen Telfer received a telephone
message from Nebraska City this
morning to the effect that Merritt
Anderson, the colored man, who for
many years has been engaged as a
drayman in Piattsmouth, died at that
place yesterday. Mr. Anderson had
been suffering for some time with lung
trouble, and about three weeks ago
he started out with a horse and buggy,
intending to drive overland through
Southern Iowa and Missouri, with a
view of benefitting his health. He
stopped at Nebraska City to visit
friends and there his condition became
worse.
Mr. Tolfer has gone to Nebraska
City, and it is thought he will make
arrangements to have the remains
brought to this city for interment lw
side the deceased's wife.
Would Not Suffer So Again For FlflT
Times lis Price.
I awoke last night with severe pains in
my stomach I never felt so badly in
my life. When I came down to work
this morning I felt so weak I could
hardly work. I went to Miller & Mc
Curdy 's drug store and they rec
ommended Chamberlain's Cholic,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. It
worked like magic and one dose fixed
me all right. It certainly is the finest
thing I ever used for stomach trouble.
I shall not be without it in my home
hereafter, for I should not care to en
dure the sufferings of last night again
for fifty times its price. G. II. Wil
son, Liveryman, Burgettstown, Wash
