Rev. W. W. 'i‘. Duncan's prelude inI
the First Methodist Episcopal Church.
last evening, was on “An Ideal Labor
Union." Hc said:
On Wednesday last a new labor or-
‘gnnizution was incorporated in the
state of New Iorlt. it is called the III-
idcpcndcnt Labor League of America.
and is brought into existence for the
promotion of thc intcrcsts of laboring;
men not connected with existing labor?
(II-.gnnizations and who are generally!
known as independents or non- unioui
own if this wcro all in were not wor-
thy any special notice except as an ii-
lustrntion of the fact that existence in
this day without organization seems
wrll nigh impossible. for here are in-
dependents and non- -unionisls recogniz- .
ing their dependence on out it other and
forming a union.
lint there is more than this. Thc
puiposes. of the new union and its
idcnls me very striking. if not indeed
unique. The chnditlons it seeks to no.
cure arc the same as present labor un-
ions seek. namely higher wages short-
er hours and better conditions for both
mature workmen and apprentices, but
thc method by which it proposes to
seek these things is certulnly in cori-
trust with present methods 1 intends
to oppose strikes and Iockotits, boy-
cotts and blacklists. and to advance the
interests of the workingmnn. the in-
telligent application of energies by co-
operation with employers and legiti—
mate business methods.
It seems strange to declare that these
methods are not pursued today. Many
will deny that such a statement is true.
but if it is, false then labor unions are
at fault that they have not long sineo
corrected the popular impression. But
there Is no ground for denial for under
the fostering cure of the great labor
unions of the country. strikes and boy-
cotts have grown to an alarming dc-
grec, in a single column of yesterday's
popes—II large, though conservative
New York dolly. no fewer than six re~
ports of labor troubles. either following
or anticipating strikes, were presented.
That the buyout is everywhere preva-
lent ls equally true. though the very
nature or theme is not so often refer-
red to in the punlic print. These facts
need to beIedrplained before we can be
asked to bclievethat labororgnniaatlons
as now generally constituted are not
promoters ot strikes and boycotts. and
we submit tbiiQt it is rckeshing to hear
of some real labor organization that
goes so far its to even propose to nervel
the workingman. and yet ellmi‘hste
those objectionable features.
The chief objection to proposed
method of such a union. would be that
it is impracticable We are told that
the strike and the boycot are the mo-
tor power in all practicn movements
for the benefit of the worklngmn'n.
That many people believe this Is un<
doubtedly tru . That there is much to
encourage turn a view is not to be
questioned. .Mnny mnploycrs and large
corporations have evidenced the fact
that they are not to be reached by
"street reasonableness." nor even ren'
sonsblenees which is stern and strong.
They move only when compelled to.
and the compulsion has ‘to operate
along a financial rather than an intel-
lectual or moral line. This view. how-
ever. is shortsighted. it observes on-
ly the immediate response and the
particular wnccsselon that employers
and corporations make. At this point
we grant that the reasonableness of II
demand seems to have little influence.
But the immediate reopen. in the line
‘ulong which organized labor has ac-
compilshcd very little as {is The
history of ptrllten ‘shovee a cry small

cess of the number secured by employ.
ers‘. The value of organized labor to
the workingmnn has been that it has
brought his needs to the atféntion of
the thinking world and cabin! has felt
the pressure of tue public sentiment
enlightened by economic study and the
investigations of specialists, until it has
come to lock upon the question of
wages as 11 question demanding consid-
eration from the standpoint of right
and fairness instead of from the point
of view at more personal erence.
The strllip and the boycott have” been
the weakness rathr than the strength
of the labor movement. A writer on
economist! who is favorable to labor or-
ganisations. has declared that “it is
well known that most strikes are th
result of passion or misunderstanding
at some point. Either one sl e or iii

NOTE WRITTEN BY MR8. WILBCN.
80pm Sensational Testimony introduc-
ed in the Murder Trial in Putnam.
PUTNAM, March L's—The most sen-
sational testimony which has been giv-
en during the. trial of Mrs. Marie l..
Manson on the charge of murdering
Mrs Julia A. Wilson of Ashford. by
administering poison. was brought out
by the dcfensc, Saturday during the
cxumiuuiion of Gcorgc Wilson. Wilson
testified that whilc searching for some
clothing for Mrs. Manson. hefound
his mother's wrapper. which she wore
at the. time of her death, and upon
looking it over discovered a note in
his mother‘s handwriting pinned to it.
The note waa'luddrossed to himself.
and his brothérors. He took the note
and after his arrest delivered it to At
torncy Harvey, counsel for Mrs. Man-
son. The witness identified the writ.-
ing and showed the jury where the
note was pinned to the wrapper. The
state objected to the admission of this
testimony, but it was ruled in. and
Attorney Harvey road the note, which
is as follows:
"George and orric: Don‘t feel bad
when you find this, for I not suffer
llko poor sis. l have taken enough or
sonic and morphine» this timc. i shall
be better off. Want orric to burn cv-
erything. Don’t want May to have
anything." ‘
Cross examination by the state fail-
ed to shake witness's statements. He
said that after his“sisicr's death his
niothcr had frequently mnde state-
ments to the sheet that she would not
suffer like his luster did but witness
did not attach any importance to these
remarks at that time
Clarence E. Chester 11 school tench-
cr in Chaplin, and a nephew of the
dead woman. testified that he was in-
" miller with Mrs. Wilsdn's writing. hav-
ing had considerable correspondence
with her. He identified the handwrlt.
ing in the note and said that. Mrs. Wil-
son never need a capital letter in writ-
ing the words “Oi-rte," as she called
0111. nor in “Sis."
After unimportant testimony by
b‘rank R. Jackson. keeper of a general
store. George Wilson was recalled to
the etnntl to identify the pin with
which the note was fastened to his
'mother‘s wrapper. The defense then
rested its case.
, Coroner Bill was lmmedi‘iteiy called
for the defense in rebuttal. He testi-
fied concerning an interview he had
with George Wilson, shortly after the
inquest. during which he told Wilson
to go to the house and searchfor poi-
son.
r. H. H. Converse testified that n
to days ago, while he was in as black-
smith nhop at Enstford. he heard
George Wilson make the statement
that he had never bought arsenic for
anyone.
Dr. Converse testified the! decree
vvtison said at this time: "God
knows I never bought any arsenic for
thy mother.. I never bought any in
my life and if she had any, i think I
should have known it."
