THE OMXHA DAILY BEE: WEDN ESDAY, JANUARY 21 1903 MICKEY IS IN A OUANDARY Halts Botween Two Opinions on the Land- Leasing Proposition. STATE BOARD OF AGRICULTURE MEETS Sceretary Furnas Makes Estimate o Condgernbly Below Thowse Previously Nebraska Crops Given, (From a Staff Correspcndent.) LINCOLN, Jan. 20.—(Specfal.) braska's delegation in congress on the one #ide and the stockmen of the state on the other, Governor Mickey 1s between two fires on the land leasing bill question The governor has been urged in a peti- tlon from Washington, signed by the sena- tors and representatives, to recommend to the legislature that it draw up a memorial petitioning congress to pass the Dietrich bill for leasing public grazing lands in Ne- | braska. And the stockmen, through the Thomas County Stockmen's association and one from western Nebraska, which held its meeting at Alliance yesterday, are urging him just as strongly to take action cale Iated to place the legislature on record in opposition to thie measure. “My mind is not made up on the matter and so I can say nothing definite now.” said the governor today. “I have just re- cefved the petition of the Thomas county stockmen against the Dietrich bill. It was presented by the president and secretary of that assoclation, J. D. Edmisten and E D. Roberts. 1 shall defer action until the other protest from Alliance is in my hands, which probably will be this evening or to- morrow. But of course it will require time to deal properly with this matter, which is of great importance to the people of this state.” Both the petitions referred to were pub- lished in The Bee thie morning The committee that will present the Alli- ance resolution to the governor will con- sist of Senators J. R. Van Boskirk, W. C Brown; Representatives Frank Currier and George C. McAllister, John E. Evans and A. 8. Reed. May Take No Action. From the action of these two representa- tive bodies of stockmen of Nebraska and the sentiment of the members of the “legis- lature as nearly as it can be obtained, the general impression 1s that Governor Mickey will decide favorably to the stockmen's views and the homestead law, which all op- ponents of the Dietrich bill hold wili be deprived of its value and benefit to home- seckers If this measure is passed by the national congress. The governor, as has #ald, will not commit himself. He added to what already bas been quoted, this brief statement, which may be considered of some significance: “1 would not take any action now. for I have not fully looked Into ihe matter, and recommendations at all to the legislature.” There are fifty-five farmers in the present Nebraska house of representatives and thy overwhelming sentiment among this num- ber, who constitute over half of the total | house membership, seems inimical to the Dietrich bill. A Douglas county member said today he a1d not think the present legislature was famillar enough with this land leasing proposition to act wisely on it. State Py The State Poultry sssoclation is now In soesion In the Auditorlum and is conduct- ing one of the best poultry shows ever given in the west. “The show this vear, safd Rev. Luther P. Ludden today; “Is a litt: the biggest find hékt™ 1t has ‘ever been. We have exhibits here from five states and the interest shown fs the greatest I ever saw. The outside public, however, is not taking the interest it should considering the fact that we have cut the price down to a nom- inal admission fee. I belleve If the pedple knew this it would materfally increase the attendance. We want the people to come, and we firmly belleve that if they will only take a look at the, exhibit this year they will become as enthuslastic as the rest of us.” There are more chickens, turkeys, geese, Qucks, pigeons and Belglan hares congre- ted at the Auditorium than most of us ever saw together before and some of them have pedigrees that it stretched out would reach almost back to the flood. The ex- hibit of Plymouth Rocks is the most ex- tensive, although the turkeys are a closo second. A new department under the care of Mr. B. E. Smith has been introduced this year— that of eggs and dressed poultry. The dressed poultry shown is all put up and owned by Armour & Co., and embraces all variettes of poultry and makes ® very nice appearance. The eggs shown are from all over the state.

It provided that the game warden shall have two pald deputies. In pursuance thereto Game Warden Simpkins appolnted Mr. McConnell of Boone county and Mr. Carter of North Platte people protest that McConnell was never called on for anything but loeal work, fsr which he recelvid no pay, while Carter drew a regular salary. This is said to be the basis of the move- ment to supplant ¢impkins with McJonnell State Board of Agriculture. The State Boamd of Agriculture formally | convened today In the university chapol Committees of the board have been at work | for two days preparing their reports to be submitted at this convention. The annuel report of Secretary Furnas was submitted this afternoon. 1t shows total receipts for the year of something over $38,000, of which there remains a bal- ance unexpended of almost $1,800. There was expended In improvements upon the | Brounds during the past year, over and above the state appropriation, a little over $3,000, that the salaries of officers of the | socfety has paid sclentists some $1,600 for services rendered by them during the past thirteen years. Secretary Furnas takes the ground that the fairs of the siate association are in- | tended to be instructive, and that nothing [ that is not of that character should be per- | mitted on the grounds. At present the management is compelled to give place to | an aggregation of sidesbows and fakes that are of no value as educators, in order to make both ends meet and that it will prob- ably be compelled to admit them until the legislature relleves It of that necessity. The report deals with the inadequate means provided for the collection of accu- rate statistics concerning Nebraska crops, and suggests that precinct assessors be compelled by severe penalties for failure to obtain and place on file statistics such as will afford o truthful conception of the yleld of the state and the acreage under cultivation. It directs attention to the wide varfance In various estimates of crops and acreage during the past year, and will sub- mit figures prepared by Secretary Furnas bearing on those points. According to Sec- year In Nebraska was just a little below 200,000,000 bushels, that of winter wheat about 45,000,000 bushels, of spring wheat about 9,060,000 bushels, of oats absut 47,000,- thing over 2,000,000 bushels, of potatoes nearly 6,000,000 bushels, of hay over 3,000,- 000 tons and of alfalfa almost 1,000,000 tors Nearly 12,000 acres were devoted to sugar beet culture, ylelding over 100,000 tons of beets and over 25,000,000 pounds of sugar. The premium revision committee has de- to provide a class for Nebraska bred ani- mals, with proper precautions to prevent a duplication of premiums, and that the mature corn show at the state fair be aban- doned for the winter corn show, the pre- miums for the latter to be provided by the State Board of Agriculture, while the ex- hibit is made under the auspices of the Corn Improvers’ association.

NINE HUNDRED DELEGATES IN SEATS Reviews Diffie rike and Expre in ¥y Leading to es Confidence Verdiet by Commi to Be Given ton. INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., Jan. 20.—The first thing on today's program at the Miners' National Wage convention was the reading | of John Mitchell's annual address. The | convention met promptly at 9 o'clock with 900 delegates in their seats. Mr. Mitchell received the closest attention President Mitchell began his address by tmpressing upon the delegates the interests committed to théir care. Of the many important events affecting the interests and welfare of the toilers of the country he said the anthracite strike | 8t0od pre-eminent. Vital principles were | at stake which, if defeated, would have | given to the American labor movement a | which it would have required years to rally and, recover. After giving a brief history of the great strike, including the effort of the Civic federation to settle the controversy be- tween the miners and operators, the ap- pointment of the étrike commission by President Roosevelt after the White House conferences, Mr. Mitchell continued: It would, of course, be improper at this time for me to comment upon the Investi- gation now being conducted by the an- thracite strike commission more than to say that its members are men in whose im- Snrfllll_\ and judgment I have full confl- cnce. | | | | No Fear of the Verdiot. Firm in my opinjon of our ability to dem- onstrate the justice of our claims, 1 have no fear of the outcome. Touching the conditions in Virginia and West Virginia, President Mitchell said: The effort to.secare for the miners the same conditions that obtained in the dis- tricts covered by the Interstate agreement has not met with the degree of success that has been hoped for, although a larger numn- ber of local unfons had been est.olished | during the last year than during any other | period during the mining history of those | states. The effect of the injunction was | fll‘"l|flrFIHI|fll to the miners In.the Falrmont | reglon. The strike In West Virginia, though not a complete success, has resulted in an im- provement in the conditions of employment and an increase of 10 per cent in wages in the Falrmont district and on the Norfolk & Western rallroad. The fact that strikes were becoming less numerous, Mr. Mitchell sad, due to the operation of the joint agreements. Local and general strikes, he sald, oc- curred more often in districts where the operators refused to recognize the organi- zatlon or ireat with it. Relations Are More Cordial. Mr. Mitchell continued: With each succeeding year the relations become more cordlal between the operators and miners in those districts wnere trade agreements exist and the bond of mutual onfidence and respect perceptibly in- creases. That the business relationship now existing will continue to grow as timé goes on is my earnest hope and con- fident expectation. Concerning the incorporation of trade unions, Mr. Mitchell submitted an opinion by Clarence S. Darrow of Chicago, attorney for the miners before the strike commis- sion, In which the following sentences occur: The demard for the incorporation of trade unfons 1s the last trench of those who' oppose organized labor, 1t ls im- pudent and presumptugus. No friend of trade unlonism evi ‘g\’&! In It or ad- vocated it, or called for {t. It I8 demanded today by {hose interesis and those enemies who have used every miehns at their com- mand to ocppose trade unjomism, to counter- uct its «ffect and to oppose It b How the labor orgamizations shall man- age thelr own affairs is not the business of the corporations or the employers, This TNew demand for the Incorporation of labor unions i8 not only unjust and unreasonable, but it is impudent and insulting to the last degree. Evil Effect of Referring to injunctions, sald: Government by {njunction Is one of the most insidious, hnl’ll‘illg and dangerous methods resorted to by the enemles of the workingmen to destroy labor organizations and to circumvent the constitutional right of ‘trial by jury. The whole system of government by injunction grows from the fictruct of the ultra-capitalists for demo- cratic institutions. The reasons Kiven for the lssuing of in- junctions are always misleading and gen- | erally false. 8o far as these Injunctions | are issued In labor cases, they are never {ssued excepting In such cases as call for the exercise of the criminal law. Government by Injunction is not only hostile to organized labor, but it is hostile to constitutional liberty. 1f the American opte do not check this arbitrary power CWill Tesult in the annihilation of labor unfons and then of 'all other forms of organizations disliked by capitalists. In closing Mr. Mitchell eald: I desire to thank each official colleague, each officer and member of our union, for Tix Aselstance and support during the past Vear and to ask the Indulgence of our Helegates in the conduct of the convention. Report of Secretary Wilso) At the conclusion of Mr. Mitchell's re- port Secretary Wilson submitted his report. | Mr. Wilson dwelt at length on the many | rhases of the great anthracite strike, and, | coming dowp to the matter of relief funds, | he said that when the call for funds was issued by the special convention sum- Junctions. Mr. Mitchell taken up by the American Federation of Labor, the various trades unions, the other central bodies, the cities and the public at large, and the response was both liberal and prompt. The special convention had scarcely more | than adjourned when we received a check from district No. § for $10,000. This was followed few days later by $5,000 from | district No. 13, $50,000 from district No. 12, $5,000 from district No. 11, $1,000 from distriet No. 35, $1,000 from district No. 20 | and $3,299.50 from district No. 2. The dona- tion from district No. 12 was more surpris- ing in its magnitude when we considered that just a month before it had sent us $50,000 for the West Virginia miners. Give ANl They Have. The various subdistric(s and local unions were equal al€o to the occasion and many of them ccotributed every penny they had In their trepsuries as soon as their dele- gates returned from the convention and re- ported. | The total amount donated by the difterent | tranches of our organization was $238,- | $4.

He reviewed his year's work in settling disputes and troubles and dis- cussed injunctions at length. In closing his discussion he sald When we remember that we have ncarly W.W' voters directly engaged In mining in the United States, and that they are dis- tributed through the country In such pro- portions that we may determine the com- position of congress, we ask in all sin- cerity, whose fault it is If we do not secure remedial legislation? It Is our own. Let us burn that into the minds and con- sclences of every mine worker in this country—then we will get our rights. 1f we expect to secure relief, every labor- ing man must act. Not by denouncing the courts, or those who issue injunctions, but to demand of our representatives In con- Eress to know where they stand with refer- ence to the growing evil of ‘government by injunction.” Let the congress of the United States, by law, classify cases that are subjects’for the ‘Jurisdiction of the federal courts when issuing injunctions affecting the rights of members of labor organizations when en- gaged In a strike. To Regulate Federal Courts. Have u law enacted that federal judges can issue Injunctions in labor disputes only on the application or approval of two or more _elective judges. Fix the time within a reasonable limit when the defendant shall answer to an injunction issued against him. Compel the applicant for an injunction flecting the rights of labor unfons to sub- mit reasonable proof that his allegations in rupport of the application for an injunction are truthful. Embody in that law a provision that those arrested for contempt of the restraining order in labor disputes shall have the same right to a trial us that accorded a person charged with a crime. A bill covering aur demands should be drawn, and then Insist that it must be enacted with every vital feature embodied and that politics will positively, be thrown aside in securing the record of every can- didate for congress on this question.
