M. Maupln, Editor Wageworker: In
The Wageworker under date of March
26, 1910, I notice an article headed
"Electrical Workers" over the signa
ture of J. W. Murphy, general secre
tary of the Reid faction of the Elec
trical Workers, and as the same re
fers to me and the Electrical Workers
I represent, viz: the McNulty faction,
I have -written Mr. Murphy, calling his
attention to the misrepresentations
and Incorrect statements therein con
tained. I herewith enclose copy of
said letter and respectfully ask you
to publish in the next issue of Tbe
Wageworker. Fraternally,
FRANK W. DUFFY,
Member Special Committee.
In accordance with Bro. Duffy's re
quest, and in the interest of fair play,
The Wageworker gladly gives space
to Bro. Duffy's ' letter to Secretary J.
W. Murphy. It is as follows:
United Brotherhood of Carpenters

Murphy, General Secretary Reid Fac
tion, Electrical Workers, Springfield,
Ills.: In the Cleveland Citizen of
March 19th, 1910, I notice an article
by you, or purporting to come from
you; your name is attached to it,
however, entitled:
ELECTRICAL WORKERS.

failed to comply with the orders of
the committee. You absolutely did
nothing up to that time to comply with
the Denver and Toronto agreements
of the A. F. of L. , There was noth
ing for the committee to do but ad
journ, resign or go out of business al
together. I, as a member of the com
mittee bad no other alternative than
to do as I Mid. I have no apologies to
make for my actions to any one, nor
will I make any apologies.
Respectfully yours,

Short Meeting and Little Business
Brought Up for Consideration.
The directors of the Labor Temple
Association met Monday evening, nine
being present to answer to roll call.
Very little business outside of two or
three routine matters (was transacted.
It was decided to call oft the pro-'
posed Temple Benefit Ball for the
time being. The matter of selecting
a secretary-manager for the associa
tion was deferred for a week on re
quest of President McBride.
, "Ways and means" came up for
general discussion, but nothing defi
nite was decided on.
Pending settlement of the present
controversy between the Electrical
Workers and the Gas company, the
Temple is being lighted by electricity
generated by a dynamo in the Tem
ple. A gasoline engine furnishes the
power.

W. L. Douglas shoes are the lowest

Their excellent style, easy fitting and

other snakes. If yon have been paying
hkh nrieaa for your shoes, the next time
you need a pair give W. L. Douglas shoes
trial. You can save money on your
Innlwau1 and set shoes that are just as
good in ovary way as those that hare
been costing you higher prices.
If m. sould visit our largo factories
at Brockton, Mas, and see for yourself
saw earefullv W. Vouglas shoes are
made, you would then understand why
they hold their shape, fit better and

2nd. You did not even make an at
tempt of any character, at any time,
to dissolve the Cleveland injunction
suits and thereby liberate the funds
tied up so that a convention could be
held. You cannot hold a convention
without funds, and you know it;
3rd. You did not comply with the or
ders of the special committee at any
time. You were repeatedly requested
to dismiss all law suits, but, on the
contrary, you complicated matters by
adding three more local unions as par
ties to the suits, and this on Decem
ber 7th, 1909 two days before the
special committee- held its first meet
ing in Springfield, 111.
4th. The special, .committee did not
decide that a convention would be
held at an early .date, but did decide
that a conventioriv"ould be held just
as soon as the terms and conditions of
the Denver and Toronto agreements
were complied with, and no sooner.
5th. McNulty, Noonan and others
never said, or even Intimated, in any
manner to the committee, in my pres
ence, that they did not favor a con
ention or that they would not at
tend a convention, If called.
6th. From whence did you learn that
the majority of the committee, Messrs.
Frey and TJrick, would report to the
executive council of the American Fed
eration of Labor; and that the minor
ity, in the person of Duffy, would not
report to the same body? Is this one
of your imaginary conclusions; an-
Just re-
member this, that Duffy the minority
of the committee will report in plain,
straight-forward language, without
fear or favor of any one, his actions
in this controversy to the executive
council of the American Federation of
Labor, and will serve on said council
copy of the communications he served
on the special committee in Cleveland,
Ohio, on March 11th, 1910.
7th. You say you will bravely insist
on your rights, but evidently you will
notgive, grant or allow the other fel
low any rights at all.
Brother Murphy, don't fool yourself
and those you represent. Don't hide
the true facts from your members un
der the subterfuge that you are right
in the position you assume, and have
assumed, that the American Federa
tion of Labor must sooner or later ac
knowledge that fact. Tell them plain
ly that you have ignored the Denver
and Toronto agreements; that you
have defied the American Federation
of Labor; that you have done nothing
to comply with the requests of the
special committee; that you have
not given the special committee any
assistance at all; that you completely
laid down on their hands; that you
have been jollying them right along,
and that all you wanted was delay,
and more delay, with the hope that
something might turn up to your ad
vantage.

His Little Game of Politics Will
Be a Successful One.
The news that John W. Hays has
headed the National Labor Alliance,,
whose purpose is to approve of such
measures as the administration passes
for labor's benefit, is no surprise to
labor in the west. John W. has seen
the Knights of Labor dwindle from
a real labor organization to a handful
of mal-contents, under his guidance,
and his latest outbreak against the A.
P. of L. is only another of his plans
for getting1 publicity, and who knows,
maybe he will head the G. O. P. la
bor political campaign. That alone
would be enough to insure its' failure.
With Hays' endorsement, any nom
inee could be sure of defeat, as labor
is onto his curves, and knows him and
his "twelve disciples" as a bunch of
skates, pure and simple. Colorado In

ASK NO SPECIAL PRIVILEGES.
The trades unions ask for "no spe
cial rights or privileges not accorded
to or enjoyed by any individual citi
zen.' We insist upon freedom of action
always within the law and invite pun
ishment by due, legal process of law if
we transgress. W object to and em
phatically protest against government
by injunction, which is another name
for industrial slavery and a hollow
mockery on our boasted democracy.
We want and demand free speech and
free press, both of which are guaran
teed by the constitution, but denied us
by injunction judges in some cases.

MANUFACTURER'S CONFESSION.
At the luncheon of the Chicago City
Club, on March 9, Joseph Fels, a mil
lionaire soap manufacturer from Phil
adelphia, unburdened his soul as fol
lows: "We can't get rich in a life
time nowadays under the present sys
tem of things unless we do so by rob
bing the people. I have made my
money that way, and my firm is still
doing it. Every one of your self-made
millionaires has done ,it. However, I
want to say that I have Begun, to re

vote my 'swag' I like to call it that,

with the cursed system which makes

the members of the executive board
