3lt. Olive, June 27.-The little body
o($ trvo year old child of -mr. and
Mrs. Frank Cannon, of Abbeville, was
brdught to this place for burial Sun
day afternoon at 2 o'clock. The par
ents of the little one are natives of this
section of the county and moved to
Abbeville only a few years ago. The
large number of friends who accom
ppanied the remains from Abbeville
and the profusion of flowers which
cov;ered the new-made grave are ex
pressions of esteem in which the fam
I1y are held in their adopted home.
Though interrupted soinewhat 1,y
threatening rain Sunday afternoon a
large congregation assembled at the
cemetery to witness the unveiling
ceremonies in honor of Travis Dald
win whose sad death occurred last
Alarch. The program was in charge
of the local camp of W. 0. W., led by
C. A. Power of Laurens, who dl!!v
ered a short address. An appropriate
reading by Virginia Alltebell and a few
well selected songs by a group of
young people added to the interest as
well as to the solemnity of the ceca
sion. The veil concealing the Wood
man monument which marlis the rest
in, place of Sovereign Travis Bahl
win was removed by two little chil
dr'n. brot her and sisteril of t!he de -
Ceased. The numnber of young m1e0:1.
still in their ten ss, associates of 1the
((reeased brother, was quite not iceabcle
in the ceremonial procession. The
exercises were to be held at 1 o'clot
'but a slight sprinkle of rain caused a
delay of one hour.

Lewis O'erwiiclminimly Defeatel for
President of labior Federation.
r lenver, June 25.--resident Samuel
Gonipers and hisl entire administration
were returned to olice for another
year by the annual convention of the
American Federation of Labor after
overwhelmringly defeating opposition
for the ;.residency and one of thevice
presidencies.
Daniel J. Tobin of Indianapolis was
reelected treasurer and Frank Morri
son of Washington was reelected sec
retary.
Cincinnati, Ohio, was selected as
the place for the 1922 convention. Fort
Worth, Texas, was the only other city
cons idered.
This sweeping victory, the labor
chief said tonight at the close of the
federation's 1st annual convention,
demonstratcd that the American trade
union movement "will not submit to
dictation from the forces of corrup.
tion or greed-neither the Ilearsts nor
the Garys can chart our course or se
lect our leaders.
"Our1 movement is united. It is pre
pared to take the ag.,ressive in defense
of the rights of'the toilers. It will not
ie swerve'd from its course. It will

working people of our11 land when eor

"We race scriotis times, I. ut we

The Iwhor ehief's forces made a.
clean sweep from the beginning, when
President Gompers -was r'eturniell to
the pr'esidlency for the 40th time by
overwhelming John L. Lew Is, presi
(lent of the I'nitedl M\ine Workers, by
a vote of 25,033 to 12,324.
This was the fIrst time that Gom
petrs had been soi'iouisly opiposed since
1894, when lhe wvas defeated 'by .Johin
.\cBr'ide, a mine worker, at a conven
lion in this- city, but he wvas returnedl
to office the following year.
W~hen his victory w'as anlnouincedl,
the labor leadler, who is nowv 72 years
of age, could scarcely control his emo
tions a~nd was inr tears a len he took
his :*lae' at the rostrum to thank the
delegates for their support andl con
fidence.
Lewis, of the mitri workers, arose
