WORDS OF ENCOURAGEMLNT TO STRIKERS
i
Mr. Gonspers Ssys Central Orgaalsa.
tloa la la Hearty Acoor with
Strlklis? Workmen of
"Organized labor haa coma to atay, and
those great corporations which are now
dealing with strikes, the mining and rail
road interest!, will. If they have not already,'-realize
tbla fact. We have pasted
that stige of anger or depression and are
Dow proceeding along the most Intelligent
lines for the preservation and protection of
eur Interests."
Samuel Oompers, president of the Ameri
can Federation of Labor, epoke In these
terms yesterday morning of the Industrial
Situation of the country. Mr. Oompers, with
President W. D. Mahon of the .Street Rail
way Employes' association, arrived In
Omaha yesterday morning, and with Presi
dent Jamea O'Connell of the International
Association of Machlniata, who arrived In the
afternoon, addressed a mass meeting last
Bight In Washington hall In the Interests
pf organized labor.
"The laboring man wants nothing beyond
lila own rights," continued Mr. Oompers,
"but he wants that with all his heart and
tout, and will have it. We are not an an
tagonistic body, seeking to undermine or
.flestroy the interests of capital; we want
peaceful relations with capital at all times
and under all circumstances, but we also
want fair treatment at the hands of the
capitalists and will insist upon having It.
, In Accord with Strikers.
Mr. Oompers was asked about the attitude
of the American Federation of Labor to
ward the present atrlke on the Union Pa
cific. He said:
"It la one of heartiest accord. The ma
chinists, bollermakera, carmen and all
other shopmen, who are members of the
'federation, have the fullest sympathy and
'co-operation of the central organization
'and It will stand by them throughout the
struggle.
"We look upon the action bf the strlk
era here aa Just and right. They are
fighting (or what they should have and
are carrying on a peaceable, Intelligent
contest that indicates a profitable set
tlement for thorn. The situation looks
'good from our standpoint. We have no
'reason whatever to feel discouraged. In
'fact, we sever feel discouraged over any
thing. Defeat only gives us new Impetus
and inspiration, for we know our cause Is
a great and just one and must eventually
succeed. As I said before, organized labor
Is not a transitory thing, but a tangible,
living movement that has come to atay
and not to be awept aside Ty the powerful
opposition which Its enemies may heap
upon It."
. Asked If he would Intercede with the
officials in behalf of the Union Pacific
strikers while here, Mr. Oompers replied
"Certainly not unless asked to do so,
and thus far no on has aprpoached me
en that subject. I do not know that there
,1s any occaalon for me to take such a
step now. Things are running along very
.wen indeed."
I Able for lose FIsTbt. .
President Oompers said that the strikers
,here and at other places on the Union Pa
!clflo were able and determined to wage a
long fight if necessary. "They will not
skulk and run to get other jobs elsewhere.
nor will their places here be filled by other
union men from abroad," he declared, "tor
as a matter of fact every shopman in this
, country haa a direct' Interest in this very
strike and not one would undermine his
'fellow workmen by coming here to work in
Ifcls place. That la not organised labor and
so one ahould allow himself to be deceived
Into thinking It is. Another thing that
wants to be borne In mind Is that shopmen
re not plentiful over this country. There
re none of them competent who are out
of work except those who are on a atrlke."
Speaking of the situation in the coal
imlnlng regions of Pennsylvania, Mr. Oom
pers said the miners were waging a good
.fight and had hopes of winning. The sltua
,tion, ha said, is an aggravated one and a
trong and determined effort would be
necessary to bring about victory. He de
clared that every day every possible effort
Is being made by the labor Interests to' In
duce settlement. "No stone is left un
turned that might afford a solution of this
vexing problem. But anxious as those
miners ars for a settlement, they are not
going to quit without some very aubstsn
tlal considerations. There must be con
ceaslons made to them or they will not give
In."
Ha aaid the strain of present strikes
while heavy, was not testing the strength
or vitality of the American Federation of
Labor, which organization la increasing in
potency every day. - -"
- Mr. Mahon Talks.
Mr. Mahon said the interests of the street
car man are improving every day. During
the last year over $1,000,000 Increases In
wagea have been secured over the United
States. In Detroit alone the men have
realized $80,000 more in their pay and In
New Orleana 1186,000. The conditions In
Omaha, ha aaid, were satisfactory and he
had no mission hers of especial concern to
the railway employee.

Overwork.
An affecting scene occured at St Joseph's
hospital Sunday when Mrs. Cook of Smith
Center, Kan., and her 14-year-old daugh
ter, Ooldle, were united after a year's
sepsratlon. About a year ago Mr. Cook
deserted his wife and family In Bmith Cen
ter, and returning to that place several
ays later, persuaded his daughter to leave
er mother and go with him. Aa aoon as
Mrs. Cook learned of her hunband's visit
nd that he bad secured possession of their
hlld, she sent descriptions of the two to
the varloua cities of the country. For al
most a year ber search was in vain. Re
cently she wrote to the Omaha police.
Detectives Heltfelt and Donohoe found the
girl with a family named Brown in the
eastern part of the city.
The father had deserted the girl several
days before and had left the city. Goldle
was sick In bed at the time the police
found ber. The police aent her to St.
Joseph's hospital, where she remained un
til Mrs. Cook arrived Sunday, and left
that night with her for their home In
Smith Center.
To the officers. Ooldle said that after ahe
left home with her father, they went to
Iowa. There her father secured for her a
position in a restaurant and compelled her
to work every day. Recently they came
to Omaha and though she was sick at the
time, her father again compelled her to
find work. She aecured employment In a
restaurant on North Sixteenth- street and
the money shs mads went for the aupport
of her father and herself. During all thla
time the father did no work, living on what
she msde. ' ' .

Awaits Disbursement oa
Reservoirs and Canals.
Senator Charles H. Dietrich arrived In the
city from Washington yesterday and was a
guest at the borne of Dr. W. H. Hanchett.
He left last evening for Lincoln, where
he will stop briefly before going to his
borne at Hastings. HI daughter, Gertrude,
ho has been with htm In Washington, will
spend the summer months at a watering
place In the Adlrondacks in the hope of
benefiting her health, which has not been
robust.
Senator Dietrich, speaking of the Irriga
tion bill, which recently became a law, said:
"Having lived In the west for so many
yeara I knew the Importance and practica
bility of irrigation and at once after my
election began working to bring about a
compromise between the two factions Into
which the friends of this great enterprise
were divided. One of these factions wanted
the general government to defray the ex
pense of building the reservoirs and canals
nd to have general management of all the
details of the undertaking; the other
wanted the money to be disbursed by the
states, each state to have control of the
work within its own territory.
In May a year ago 1 arranged for a
meeting of western senators and congress
men and submitted to them a plan which
was sfterwsrd accepted. It was. In brief,
that the general government construct the
reservoirs and canals and retain ownership
of them, but that the water be distributed
under the atate laws. The Irrigation bill,
which has Just become a law, Is drawn up
along this line and embodies virtually all
the Ideas I advanced at the meeting. It la.
said by old members of congress who have
examined ' It that a more complete bill
never came up for their consideration.
Probable Effect of Law.
"The effect of this irrigation legislation
is already being seen In the greatly In
creased number of people who are looking
to the west for homes Instead of going to
Canada, as the tendency was a year ago.
It is too early yet to aay Just when and
where the first reservoirs and canals will
be built, but there Is no reason why some
thing tangible in this line ' should not be
done within the next twelve months, since
there Is, or will be, plenty of money avail
able for the purpose. The revenue for the
enterprise will be derived from the sal of
public lands and between $5,000,000 and
$6,000,000 already await disbursement.
It Is an Interesting fact that all eastern
senators and congressmen, without an ex
ception, Opposed this Irrigation bill at the
atart, and some fought It to the end. It
Is an evidence that the east Is Jealous of
the west. Congressman Orosvenor said It
was a railroad acheme, to enhance the
value of railroad land, forgetting, evi
dently, that every alternate section In
these great publlo domain belongs to the
government, and that the railroad land
could not be Improved without Improving
the government land."

UNION PACIFIC TRACKS SINK
"
Oollapie of Eoadbad at West End of
Missouri Elver Bridge.
SURFACE GOES DOWN ABOUT THIRTY FEET
t
All Trains To and From Bridge Most
Run Over Barlingrton Tracks
Two Hun1 red Men Re
pairing Damage,
A cave-in of the Union Pacific roadbed
at the west end of the company's Missouri
river bridge yesterday dlsplaoed about
14,000 cubic feet of embankment, and tem
porarily destroyed three tracks, making It
necessary for tralna entering the depot
yards to pass over the freight tracks or
those of the Burlington to the south and
back Into the Union Station from the west
end.
Tbe displacement covers an area of prob
ably 420 feet in length and thirty feet wide
and the surface of the embankment about
thirty feet. Fortunately no trains were on
the tracks at the time and consequently
no damage outside of that done to the
trackage was felt.
The roadbed, which was built on a filling,
was composed of sand, topped with gravel,
and It seems to have simply sunk Into the
earth. It is over the old artesian well and
the scene of a similar accident four years
ago. The beginning of the depression Is
about 100 feet west of the west end of the
bridge. It takes off the north side of the
embankment and extends south within a
few feet of the Burlington tracks, which
are thought, however, not to be endangered.
The three sets of tracks were' curved and
twisted by the collapse, but In most places
the rails stayed with the ties, both going
down to the depth of thirty feet together.
Collapsed Rarly In Morning.
The depression was first noticeable dur
ing Sunday afternoon, but the real collapse
did not occur until soma time in the early
morning. It is thought that there la aome
eoapstone In the composlton of the roadbed
and that this, together with the fact that
the be! was laid exactly over the old arte
sian well, started the cave-In, which was
helped along by the heavy rains. There Is
no E"-at masu of earth such as might' be
looked for on the aide of the trackway, but
the filling seerrw to have dropped Into the
earth, fitting into a big depreaion.
Within a few hours after the accident
was known a crew of about 200 men was
put to work making repairs and It la esti
mated that three or four days will be con
sumed In replacing the embankment and
laying the tracks. A steam ehovel ts al
ready at work, bringing dirt from Summit.
Of course it will require some time for the
new roadbed to settle before the trains ran
safely run over it. In the meantime a cut
off track which Is being thrown In will be
uaod by Incoming trains.
One peculiar feature of the affair la that
ths little cabin used by tbe ewiu:hn;t :i
sunk to a depth of thirty feet without being
Injured In the least. It was left perfectly
Intact except being lowered from Its former
location. No one was In the cabin when
tbe collapse came.

trsul to Dakota Hot Springs, a special

There is still enough Ufa left In the
OMAHA DRUG TRUST to keep us on the
CUT OFF 1, 1ST. Can't buy patent medi

you "HOW IT HAPPENS" thst they
MUST REFUSE to accept our money for
their goods. The fight Is BTII..L. ON, and
