He saiii: "While the particular branch of our order is regarded as a bibber fcranrb, and elicits far more special attention In nearly every other State, in Missouri, by special correspondence, personal vlsitxtion, and a large measure of patience, we are an- nbled vear alter year to report tbe situation as practically unchanged. The remedy is within tho reach of the representatives here assembled. Since recent legislation bas made this body an Inexpensive one.

thore need no longer be complaint that 'per capita txx' Is too great, but there must be greater willing ness to stund up toy ally lor our order in all its branches and keep them fully In line with the numerous kindred organizations in ail re apects.

18. The Socialists of the coke regions held a delegate meeting at Everson yesterday. Eighty delegates were present, representing the eighteen societies of the coke region. The meeting was secret, but tbe proceedings were not kept entirely so. Most of tbe speeches were delivered in a cool manner, but a few were frothy and violent.

The sentiments uttered were vigorously applauded. The tenor of tba speeches was for unity of labor against capital, and tba sentiment was expressed tbat before many years tba Individual ownership of capital and the system of capitalistic profits would be abollnbed, if only tba laborers would act together. Soma rampant speakers advocated a bloody revolution and the de. struction of the owners of capital, together with the fcrcibia seizors of ail property, but tha majority counselled peace. They reasoned that If all laborers were brongbt into tbe socialistic fold tney would so preponderate over capital that they could simply enter into possession of ail property without a drop of bloodsliod or tbe use of any force.

They woult simply take possession. A series of mass-meetings were arranged for, when tha action of tbe delegate convention will be laid before tbe members gene-ally for ratification. Tba recent trouble with tbe Fries Coke Co. was relerred to as an instance of tbe arrogance of capital In dealing with free born laborers as certs, and the support of all the Socialists In the region was pledged to the men, who have given six days' notice to the mammoth coke works, and It is expected that tbe trouble will end In a strike, lha six days will expire Thursday. The delegates con gratulate themselves on tbs growth of socialistic ideas in tbs coke regions.

Tbe statistics presented show a total membership of over three thousand in eighteen societies. AH tbe Germans in the region are enrolled and about one-fourth of tbe American workmen. Tbe next effort will be to get in the rest of the Americans and tbe English miners. Ibe Hungarians have not been admitted vet, as they are too radical and hot- blooded and it Is feared would cause trouble if allowed to be in the majority. Plans were discussed for extending the movement among the miners of the river coal region and In tha regions between bore and Pittsburs.

Com mittees were appointed to see what could be done in enrolling laborers in other branches In tbe Pittsburir district, and to co-operate with tbe Socialistic organizations in the cities of Pittsburg and Allegneny.
