"WE HAVE FAITH IN OUR CAUSE," SAYS GOMPERS Further Declares "We Are Tied to No Administra tion, but Are Free Men" | Washington. Nov. 11, Abjuring loyalty to a "temporary" adininistra- I tion which violates the principles of | democracy, Samuel Gompers, spcak i ing for American labor at a dinner | given to-night for delegates to the International Federation of Trades i Unions, declared that "we are tied to jnc administration, but we are free I men and propose to exercise the free [ dom of our judgment." I Mr. Gompera told the representa- I tivs of foreign labor that he did not I believe a true understanding of the coal miners' strike had reached the I President because of his illness. Responding to tlie American labor leader's address, Leon Jouhaux, lead er of the French labor delegation to the International Labor Conference, declared that "if the workers of the United States need the assistance of the workers of other countries they will* get it," as he added, 'frontier cannot separate the interest of work ers and private interests cannot sep arate workers." "We are engaged in the greatest work of to-day," said Mr. Gompers, "the greatest that lias ever been en trusted to the common people of America—to secure right and justice and a better standard of life and the principles of freedom and humanity." 'Whenever and wherever there is an attempt made lfy the employers as employers or by the government as a government to depart from the fundamental principles of freedom and democracy, it is not only the right, but the duty of men and wo men and labor to stand up and pro test regardless of what the conse quences may be." Continuing in a lower voice, the Federation chief sain' "We are living in our own time as best we can, but our lives are just a passing instant to the continuity of civilization, and the progress of the world and what matters it if you and you and you and I are placed in jail because we have attempted to up hold tlie principles of freedom and justice and democracy. It is better that we should have our own self-re spect and hand down to the gener ations yet to come the principles of freedom aud the worthiness to bat tle for freedom than to dies and to live an inglorious life." Proclaiming American labor to be in thorough accord with American principles and ideals, Mr. Gompers added: "We are in accord with our govern ment when we know that our govern ment is followini?"out a course of jus tice and freedom and of human devel opment as expressed by the princi ples of democracy. When our admin istration for the time being fails to stand for the principles of democracy then we have no alternative but to assert that American justice must prevail against any temporary ad ministration of the affairs of our country." "We are tied to no administration. We are free men and we propose to exercise the freedom of our judg ment and our conduct and to criticise or to express ourselves in dissent from the policies pursued. "We have faith in our cause," Mr. Gompers further asserted. "We be lieve that we are right. Aye, we are convinced that we are in the right and the men and women of labor in America understand and that the men and women of freedom in the whole world may understand that the at tempt to impose upon our people a condition of affairs that is repug nant to the concepts of right and of justice and of democracy, we, the men and women of labor will stand true to the highest principles of' justice and of right and of freedom." Delegates attending the dinner at the suggestion of Louis M. Morrones, Mexican representative, pledged their support to the United Mine Workers of America in the present strike. "Wets" Lead Again in Vote in Ohio; Recount Demanded Columbus, Ohio, Nov. 11.—The courts may be called upon to de cide whether Ohio voters upheld or repudiated the action of the State Legislature in ratifying the Federal prohibition amendment. With an apparent wet majority of 644 against ratification, Manager James A. White, of the Ohio Dry Federa tion, has made formal demand on the Secretary of State for a recount. White, however, has not yet ad mitted defeat of the proposal, con tending that it will take the com plete official count to decide the re sult. Hamilton county's official count, including Cincinnati, has not yet reached the office of the Secre tary of State. Should the election be forced into the courts, the final result may not bk known for weeks or even months. A reported gain of 764 votes for the wets in the official count of Hamilton county yesterday, would turn the dry majority of 120 votes, 'based on official returns received at the Secretary of State's office and the unofficial count of Hamilton county, into a wet majority of 644. Corkage Charge $1 on Hip Pocket Flasks / New York, Nov. 11.—New York hotels have invented a new charge— "corkage, one dollar."

One hotel man explained last night that there is about as much drinking as ever in public dining halls, but without revenue. Hence the "corkage" tax. DENY NEGOTIATIONS Peking, Wednesday.

HAJRJRISBURG "I HFNSJL TELEGKXJPH SAYS SUFFRAGE IS NOT YET WON; Governor Sproul Tells Wo men 1 They Must Con vince the People Philadelphia, Nov. 11.—Governor | Sproul, addressing the - delegates to | the State convention of the Penjjsyl ; vania Woman's Suffrage Association ] at a dinner here last night, reminded them that although Pennsylvania had i ratilied the universal suffrage sfruend j ment, their work was not done and I | that they had still to convince the i people and the legislature that they ■ j should be given suffrage in state I j elections. He said he had little doubt that this would be accomplished as j rapidly as the importance of the j issue would warrant. Governor Sproul expressed con- I cern at the reports from New York that certain leaders in one- branch iof suffrage activities were contem- I plating the organization bf g sep arate and distinct woman's party. Nothing affecting one class of citi zenship in this country, whether that classification is by sex, by useful ness, by material possessions or vo cational position, he said, could fail to affect every other class, and it would be entirely unwise, in fact, al most destructive, if the women of the country should set up shop by themselves and undertake anything like a party founded only upon sex prejudices. Constructive humanitarianism is the great opportunity for women in politics, he said, and it will be a great disappointment, "indeed, a sad i .day for political reformers in Amer ica if women should take a selfish and sordid view of politics and at- . tempt to capitalize their greater in fluence and privileges for individual, I sex or class selfishness."
