(Signed) SAMUEL GOMPERS,
Pres. American Federation of Labor,
The above is an extract from a letter
of the noted labor leader, Samuel
Gompers. John M. Reynolds a foe to
the eight hour law in the Panama
zone is surely in principle a foe to the
eight hour law in the states.
Extracts from letter of October 3rd,
1906, of President Shibley, of National
Federation for People’s Rule, which is
also endorsed by Samuel Gompers,
president American Federation of
Labor:
“We thank you for your favorable
reply to our questions and enclose sev-
eral copies of report. Your splendid
attitude and the autocratic position
taken by your opponent (John M. Reyn-
olds) ought to elect you (Joseph E.
Thropp).”

DEAR SIR:—
During the trouble at Kearney mine,
under the management of Joseph E.
Thropp, has been unjustly stated. Av
that time the K. of L. was in power at
his mine and the families evicted never
lost an article as was stated. As soon
as Mr. Thropp found out the true sit-
uation of affairs, reinstated all the
families back into their houses, also
gave them back their jobs that wanted
them back. The families all returned
but one or two.
time some of the men joined the U. M.
W. of A. and then the K. of L. objected
to them working there, this causing
more trouble. Mr. Thropp said he
would not recognize the K. of L., but
would the U. M. W. of A., which was
instituted at that place and since every-
thing has been going quietly and as
good wages paid as at any coal or coke
plant in the state.
Hoping this will help you out,
E. R. FLUKE.
Kearney, Pa., October 26th, 1906.
DEAR SIR:—
There is quite a rumor over the
country in regards to Mr. Thropp be-
ing a hard man to work for and that
he is hard on his men. I can truthfully
say it is not so, as I have been living in
and near Kearnev since he owned
that plant, and he always has paid the
highest price for his work and treated
his men with respect as far as possible.
Furthermore, Mr. Thropp is the best
friend to the laboring people that there
is in the county.
Yours respectfully,
AARON BARTON.

DEAR SIR: —
I take the pleasure of dropping you
a few lines to let you know that we
heard up here that there is people out
through the country trying to make
the people believe that Mr. Joseph E.
Thropp set the people out of the houses
and sold their furniture in 1901.
