"The method practiced in Michi
Tan in the last few years in rela

cannot follow. I am not a wealthy
man, and therefore it seems the de

Gompers Asks Farmers of State to
Unite in Opposition to In
dustrial Court.
Washington, Sept. 7. Renewing
attacks upon the Kansas law estab
lishing a court of industrial relations
begun by labor organizations at the
time of its enactment last winter,
Samuel Gompers gave out today cop
ies of a letter addressed to central
labor bodies in the state, tendering
the aid of the federation in efforts to
get the measure repealed. Mr. Gomp
ers in his letter asked Kansas labor
organizations to rally farmers around
the opposition to the court sysUin
for settling industrial controversies
and asserted that agriculturists would
suffer from its continuation.
"The united forces of labor and the
farmers should seek the repeal of this
law," Mr. Gompers wrote. "If it i.s
endorsed, the next legislature will go
farther, as. the. goveror of your state
appears to have made it his life work
