B. a A OPTOMETRIST AND OPTlCIAJf Samuel Gompers, the head of the American Federation of Labor, has Just had a long talk with Woodrow Wilson, and be gives his Indorsement to that candidate. "We dis ssys Mr. Gompers, "planks Of the Baltimore platform which touch legislation affecting the rights of the working people of the United States. I give those planks my eat tire approval."

Nevertheless, this affiliation of Gompers with Wilson has one queer aspect. Here Is what the labor chief's new ally said about labor unionism a few years ago: "You know what the usual stand of the employe Is In our It is to give ss little as he may for bis wages. Labor is standardised by the trade unions, and this Is the standard to which it is made to conform. No one is guttered to do more than the average workman can do. In -some, trades and handicrafts no one Is suffered to do more then the least skillful his fellows csn do within the hours allotted to a day's labor and no one may work off hours at all, or volunteer anything beyond the minimum.

This congressional district has thirteen counties; five above the river, and eight on this side; the vote in round numbers, we mean the Democratic vote, is divided, In the proportion of three to one, that is the counties above the river have about 7,000 votes, and the counties on this (Jde have about 11,000 votes. The race in the district as a whole, as the Times sees It, is about as follows: Ini Trigg county the race is between Smith and Berkley, Smith will carry the county. In Caldwell, the race la between Smith and Bark-ley, Smith will carry the county. In Crittendon, the race Is between Barkley and Hendrlck. Hendrick will carry the county.

In Lyon the race Is between Barkley and Smith, tbe county will' be close. in McCrackeh county the race la between Barkley and Hendrick, between tbe two nations over the matter. THE COMMISSION PLAN. It Is not surprising the eagerness with which the petitions asking for a vote on the proposition to adopt the commission form of government for the city and county are signed. Conditions in both the city and county administrations are solely responsible.

RAT KILLERS Bt'SY1, Work of Precaution Agalaat Bubonic Plagoe la Frisco Delag Pushed. San FraneJsco, July 17. Tbe work of exterminating rata is being carried on here with great energy under the direction of Dr. John D.

A corps, of froni forty to Sftr. men la kept steadily at Worn. In the city and about sixty men are' engaged Is rapidly becoming unprofitable un der Its preaent regulation by tnoet who have determined to reduce it to a minimum. Our economic suprem acy may be lost because the country grows more and more lull of unprofitable servants. These Words were spoken by Woodrow Wilson to the students of J'rlnceton on June 11, 1901.

How lies Samuel Gompers like them? Wllat do the l.ooo.eoo members or the 17,000 local unions comprised fit the American Federation of -ItSrtr think of thla attack on labor unionism? The attack was made only three years ago, When Prof. Wileojs, was saying these things neither he nor anybody else ever supposed that he would ever be Presidential Candidate Wilson. But at undoubtedly believed whit he Does he believe it nowT Probably he does, -but he will hardly avow It at any time previous to' No vember 1, And this organised labor hater Is the man with whom the organised labor chief has just hail a long conference, and whom the chief indorses. While Gompers has been a Democrat ever since he has been able' to vote, which means over a quarter of a century, does not this effusive fraternisation between htm and the man who would abolish every labor union In the country If he had the power, seem rather Incongruous? Seagirt acquaints men with some strange bedfellows. St.

Louis Barkley will csrry the county, li Marshall the race la between Barkley and Hendrick, Berkley, will carry the county. In Ballard the race is between Corbett and Barkley, Corbett will carry the county. In Carlisle the race Is bet wen Barkley and Corbett, Barkley will carry the county. In Graves, Hickman and Fulton counties, Judge Barkley will easily receive as many votes as all bis opponents put bis opposition In these counties will probably he about equally divided between hi-three opponents. In Calloway the race Is between Barkley and Smith, Barkley will carry the county.

From the summary the resde of the Times can see that Judge Barkley is an easy lesder In the district ss a whole, and the Times believes that be will succeed the Hon. Ollle M. James In congress. Calloway Times: serve their city better In no way than in devising some plan by which we can construct the needed addi tions to tbe sewer systems as soon ss possible. 1 Of course the matter will have to be submitted to the people this fall, but It Is not too early to secure the data and have the Information ready to submit at the proper time.

There is no economy, in fact there danger and expense In postponing action until soma later time. The savings in doctor's bills and money lost dtie to absence from work will more than pay those upon whon most of tbe burden will fall. Let's have action! STATE PRESS. Rome Honor, Anyway.
