One who represented the railway laborers wound up his appeal to. the President by saying. "Mr. President. the boys want this bill." He was followed by a distinguished orator from New York. with silver tongue and soft hands. who sneeringly repeated the statement .that the "boys wanted it." When that Jeer was made it was cheered by the assembled people opposing the bill. many of whom had perhaps been sent there by the steamship trusts. or the Liberal. Immigration League. Mr. Gompers a few weeks ago denounced this socalled Liberal Immigration League and showed by decisive proofs and from the records themselvesthe originals and carbon copies--that the officers of this league appeal to the steamships. the Coal Trust. and the Steel Trust for funds to finance an institution which they claimed to be altruistic and honorable. and tills appeal had not been in vain.
