SHIRLEY CHLDS REFORMERS IN A RACE | Violent Disorder the Leading‘ Feature of To-day’s Session of the Reformers’ Con- ference at St. Louis A Missourian “Va pected of Being a pire of the Corporations” pelled by the Meeting. St. Louis, Feb. 24.—The most ex citing and important session of the great national industrial conference was expected to take place to-day. A rough-and tumble time of it from start to finish seemed the only pos- A “blue and the gray” mass meeting, into which the convention itself before grappling with the piatform, tempo rarily poured oil upon the troubled waters.

The treaty, if such it might be term- ed, was ratified in speeches by ex- Senator VanWyck of Nebraska and Ben Terrell of Texas The blue and gray incident ended picturesquely by a delegate on the platform snatching up a big Ameri can flag and waving its folds over the head of Cabell of Virginia, a col ored delegate, who happened to be | sible programme. resolved standing near. A RECITAL OF FRIGHTFUL WOE This, the first great labor confer- | ence of the United States and of the | world, representing all divisions of urban and rural organized industry assembled in national congress, in voking upon its action the blessing and protection of Almighty God, puts forth, to and for the prolucers of the nation, this declaration of union and independence. The conditions which surround us best justify our co-operation We the midst of a nation brought to the verge of moral, po- meet in litieal and material ruin. Corrup tion dominates the ballot vox, the legislatures, the congress and touches even the ermine of the bench. Many of the states have been com pelled to isolate the voters at the The people are demoralized polling places, in order to prevent universal intimidation or bribery. The muzzled, publie opinion silenced, business prostrated our homes cov- ered with mortgages, labor impov erished, and the land concentrating in the hands of capitalists. The ur- ban workman are denied the right of newspapers are subsidized or ! organization for self-protection, im- | ported pauperized labor beats down their wages, a hireling standing army, uzrecognized by our laws, is established to shoot them down, and they are rapidly degenerating to European conditions. The fruits of the toil of millions are boldly stolen to build up colossal fortunes, un precedented’ in the history of the world, while their possessors despise the republic and eudanger liberty. From the same prolitie womb of the government injustice we breed the great classes—paupers and million- aires. The national power to create money is appropriated to enrich bondholders; silver, which has been accepted as coin since the dawn of history, has been demonetized to add to the purchasing power of gold decreasing the value of all forms of property as well as human labor: and the supply of currency is pur- posely abridged to fatten usurers, | bankrupt eaterprise and ens in- dustry. A vast conspiracy against minkind has beeu organized on two | contineuts and is taking possession of the world. — If not met and over- thrown at ouce, it forbodes terrible i the the establishment of an absolute despotism. £0 convulsions, destruction of civilization or A NEW PARTY NECESSARY.

They have agreed together to ignore in! the coming campaign every issue but one. They propose to drowa the outeries of a plundered people | with the uproar of a sham battle over the tariff, so that corporations, national banks, rings, trusts, “wat ered stocks,” the demonetization of silver, and the oppression of usurers may all be lost sight of. They pro pose to sacrifice our homes and chil ! dren upon the altar of Mammon—to destroy the hopes of the multitude in order to secure corruption fuuds from the great load of plunder.
