WILSON GILLS T.H’S PLATFORM 2-SIDEO Proposes Social Reforms, and Speaks of Great Trusts at the Same Time. BITT’ALtt. Sept. 2.—Governor Wil «'ii turned his big guns on Colonel Roosevelt today in a speech which he delivered to an enthusiastic Labor day throng of many thousands at Brauns nark. The Democratic candidate for the presidency was cheered from the tno im nt he arrived and the hearty greet ing he received reached its climax at the park. Analyzing the Progressive platform of Colonel Roosevelt, the gov- ■ rnor said: ■There is a very singular feature about the platform of the nev party. Il has two sides and two tones. It speaks warm sympathy with practical ly every project of social betterment io which men and women of broad sympathies are now turning with gen erous purpose and on that side it is refreshing’to read. It may be intcr nrcied in tile light of some interesting things Mr. Roosevelt has recently said. Mr. Roosevelt declares his devoted ■oilicrenee to the principle of protec tion- Only those duties which are manifestly too high, even to serve the interests of those who are directly pro tected. ought, in his view, to be low • red. He declares that he is not trou bled by the fact that a very large mount of money is taken out of tht pocket of the general taxpayer anad put 'iiio the pocket of particular classes of protected manufacturers, but that his oneern is that so little of this money gets into the pockets of the employees. I have searched his program thorough ly for an indication of what he expects m do in order to sec to it that a larger proportion of this 'prize - money gets Into the pay envelopes and i have found only one suggestion. About the Minimum Wage Proposition. "There is a plank in the platform which speaks of establishing a mini num wage for women workers, and I suppose that we may assume that 'he principle Is not in the long run meant to be confined in its applica tion to women only. Perhaps wc arc justified in assuming that the third tarty looks forward to the general cs iblishment by law of a minimum It is very likely. I take for granted, at if a minimum wage were estab shed by law the great majority of mployers would take occasion to bring ’■ ir wage scales as nearly as might be down to the level of that minimum, and t would be very awkward for the kingman to resist that process suc ssfully. because it would be danger ous to strike against the authority of llk Federal government. "Moreover, most of his employers — at any rate, practically all of the most powerful of his employers—-would be sards and proteges of that very gov- ■ rnment which is the master of us all. for no part of this program can be dis cussed intelligently without tremen bering that monopoly, as handled by it, is not to be prevented, but accepted. It is to be accepted and regulated. All attempt to resist it is to be given up. It is to be accepted as inevitable. The government Is to set up a commission whose duty it will be not to check or defeat it, but merely to regulate it, under rules which it is in itself to frame and develop, that the chief employers will have this tremendous authority behind them: what they do they will have the license of the Federal govern ment to do, including the right to pay the wages appioved by the government. Attitude of Industries Toward Organized Labor. "And it is worth the while of the working monos the country to recall what the attitude toward organized labor has been of those master- of con solidated industries, whom the Federal government is to take under its patron age as well as under its control. They have always been the stout opponents of organized labor and they have tried io undefmine it in a great many ways, some of the ways they have adopted iv- worn the gul-e of philanthropy nd good will, and have no doubt b< en used, for all 1 know, in perfect good faith. Some of them have set up sy s "uk of profit-sharing* of compensrf tion foi injuries, bonuses and even pen- Contmued on Page 2, World's Greatest Long Distance Runner Held Prisoner at Ellis Isle , Officials Trying to Determine Whether Athlete is a “De sirable Immigrant.'’ NEW YORK. Sept. 2. —Hans Koieh mainen, of Finland, the greatest long distance runner in the world, who wrested more than one victory from Americans in the international Olympic games at Stockholm in July, is being held today at the doorway of the Unit ed States until the authorities can de termine to their own satisfaction , whether the great athlete is a "de- I sirable immigrant." Kolehmainen. who arrived here yes terday from Glasgow upon the Anchor liner California, was detained at Ellis Island facing possible deportation. The athlete was accompanied by his brother. William. They came here not as athletes, but as workmen bent upon making the land of the Stars and Stripds their future home. The twain came as third-class passengers and were dressed in typical immigrant fash ion with loose fitting clothing, ungain ly shoes, tweed caps and red bandanna handkerchiefs knotted about their necks. Hans speaks no English and was the most amazed man on the North American continent today be cause his entrance into the land of promise had been barred His brother, William, tried to explain to him that the authorities must surely be making a mistake, but the wonder in Hans' big ox-like eyes only deepened. Wil liam speaks a few words of English. The two brothers kept to themselves on the voyage over and refused to min gle with the other emigrants. Prominent athletes, upon hearing of ■ the Kolehmainens' plight, immediately took steps to help them. Harry Davis Resigns As Manager of Naps: Birmingham in Charge CLEVELAND. OHIO, Sept. 2. —Har- , ry Davis, manager of the Cleveland Naps. tendered his resignation to Owner Somers today , and Joe Birming ham was placed in charge temporarily. Davis has not proved successful with the Naps this season and local papers have been demanding his release. Davis took charge of the local team this spring, after having captained the Ath letics to an American league pennant and a world's series championship over the Giants last fall.

LABOR HOSTS BANISH FOR DAYCARE INDTOIL Thousands Desert City for Cool Grant Park and Splendid Festival Program. Factory fires are banked today. The tall stacks a e smokeless since Satur day night. Shop doors are closed and cotton mill spindles have ceased their whirring for a day The men and wom en - and the child workers, too —are celebrating the one day in the year they call their own. Wisely , the Labor day committee i ' abandoned the parade this yea". On , many September Mondays the worker? have arisen early, donned holiday um . forms and marched in the hoi sun be hind brass bands, while wives ami chil dren have sweltered on the sidewalks waiting for the parade to pass. But this year the unions decided on a "safe and sane" celebration at Grant park, where the atmosphere is several degrees cooler and a great deal fresher than in Whitehall steet. The working folk are there by thousands today, fill ing the pavilion, dotting the wooded hillsides with splashes of gay color, keening the popcorn men busy. They crowded the trolley ears before the sun had a chance to get In its work and the park was well filled before half Atlanta • had finished its breakfast. Music of Three Bands Enlivens the Throngs. Three bands, all union musicians, of I course, began their program early in 1 the day The hlg concrete pavilion was given over to dancing. Farther down the park another hand played every thing from grand opera to ragtime. : with a big audience sitting on the grassy hillside. The zoo folk held a regular reception from the start and before the monkey cages the children formed such a crush that it required ■ several cops to keep the smaller ones from being smothered. Old Maud, the elephant. entertained a constantly grow ing circle of wide-eyed youngsters and the parrots and cockatoos were ' taught enough new words to double (heir already extensive vocabulary. The Labor day exercises began yes terday with a special sermon at the Harris Street Presnyterian church, de livered by Rev. Jere A Moore. A host of union men gathered at the city ball jus. before the service and their march to the church was a Labor day parade , without the floats and bands. The line ' was headed by President S. B. Marks. . of the State Federation, and Carl Kar ston, president of the Atlanta body. D ■. Moore took for the theme of his sermon “Ono Day’s Rest in Seven,” and ' discussed the principles for which union labor is working. “More than 3.000.00 C people in the United States are denied a day s rest once a week," he said. | “They are enslaved by employers | seized by a passion for greed and gain. Pleads for One Day of Rest in Week. “In Atlanta today more than a thou ! sand street car conductors and motoi - 1 men must work seven days in a week 'About 300 policemen are required to be |on duty seven days in a week. Hun- I.lron’s of clerks have no Sunday rest, I being required to work in drug stores. I tobacco stores, candy stores, and at soda fountains, all of which are open on Sunday in direct violation of the laws of the state of Georgia, except the drug stores selling what is necessary to be sold on the Sabbath. , “The city grants her firemen one day out of six. and that is right: but why not give the policeman one day ii. seven ? “Is not lite Georgia Railway and Electric Company prosperous enough, and considerate enough, to give its em ployees the privilege of resting one day in seven? “Should not the railroads heed the law of the state and stop all unneces sary moving of freight trains?” Final plans for the Grant park cele b ation were made at a meeting of committees yesterday afternoon at the Labor temple. W. C. Puckett, Cail Karston, R. L. Corley and Dennis Lind say made up the committee on program and amusement. L. P. Marquardt, Je rome Jones. William VanHouten. W. C. Puckett and J.

Sept. 3.—Behind a atm. pie memorial which made its appearance in a local newspaper Saturday lies the shadow of a great love, given up by a woman in order that her idol might be come great In the eyes of the world. The memorial, which appears on August 31 every 'year, reads: MANSFIELD—Passed from this life on August 30. 1907* Richard Mansfield. “We pass; the path that each man trod Is dim, or will be dim, with weeds; What fame is left for human deeds In endless age? It rests with God.” Through the mail to this newspaper it comes each year on the anniversary of the great actor’s death from a convent, where even the name of the sender is hidden under the name bestowed by ths church. When Richard Mansfield was In his first great New York success he met and loved a young Maryland girl, by whom he was loved in return. Her parents forbade the marriage, then relented on condition that Mansfield leave the stage and become a Catholic. But she gave him up and en tered a convent. When Mansfield first, saw her she wore white roses In her hair, and from time I to time he sent to the convent a basket of white roses, until the black-robed sis ter became known to the. nuns as the "sister of the roses.” philip'TdodgTfree; WIFE DID NOT CONTEST I RENO, NEV..
