Mr. Fnuik G- Carpenter, the well knmvii journalist and syndicate writer, is publishing a series of articles relat ing to the predominating issue of labor nun capital, and the following interest ins pa 1'ngrnph from Mr. Carpenter's ]'»••!is give5! us a very fail" idea how c.i pita lists are pillaging the wealth pi ocluce: of the country and also mob ilizing thei' forces to secure more pii.'tider in the future: 'Take Carnegie! No one knows just what he has, but his three hundred mil lions dollars of steel securities bring 11jin in an income of more than fifteen million dollars a year, or more than forty-one thousand dollvrs for every dr: nf the week, including holidays and Sun«ia\ s. John Rockefeller scoops something like two thousand dollars an hem- all the year from his stocks, real estate, and mines and the Van* ilorhiifs, AstoKS, and Guolds have pro portionally large incomes. There are today a number of men in the United States worth fifty million dollars and upward, and the organizations of capi tal whose stocks runs into eight or more figures are legion. We now have, in addition to the billion-dollar steel trust, which, by the way, is a little shrunken at the waist, and in addition to the gigantic Pennsylvania Railroad, about eight hundred and fifty indus trial combinations, which command, all told, fifteen thousand millions of dollars. We have two hundred and thirteen industrial trusts capitalized at seven thousand millions, and more than five thousand other corporations. These trusts are swallowing their smaller competitors. They are branch ing out to include all. business 9f pro fit, and in many cases are binding the hands of industry with trade regula tions. Indeed, we are fast becoming a nation of pool-makers, rate-fixers, and profit-sharers, and new questions of enormous importance stare us in the fac?." Shall the trusts own the people or shall the people own the trusts? Which! BEAUTIES OF MILITARISM. In certain mining districts of Colo rado, martial law prevails, and the beauties" of militarism are made ap parent to the people. Censorship of the press is as severe as in Russia. Even ordinary news items must be sub mitted to the military before publica tion. Free speech is absolutely denied. Men are arrested upon mere suspicion, and held without bail, or banishod from the State. Even women and chil dren are thrust into the "bull-pen" like cattle, for no other wrong than that they express sympathy with the strikers. A child six years of age was sa treated because she "made faces" at a "belted knight," but the climax was reached on Wednesday when C. H- Reimer, a mine owner and employer of the district, was, arrested and lodged in the bull-pen. The chief detective of the Mine Owners' Association, at whose instigation the arrest was made, said that after being detained for a time Reimer would be banished from the district- The detective also announced that if Reimer's partner, James F. Burn, president of the Portland Min ing Company, should come to the dis trict to attempt to interfere in behalf of Reimer, he, also, would be place! in the bull-pen. The "crime" of these employers is stated by the detective as follows: "Retmer and Burns have incurred the. enmity of the Mine Owners' Associa tion by giving employment to union miners in the Portland mine, by- work ing for the election of a union man as Assessor, and by stating that the de mands of the Western Federation of Miners are just." Novv, then, ill some patriotic Amer ican save our national self-respect by citing something worse than this in the doings of the Russian or Turkish ^fe-^Governments l'm r/VUNIONISTS The .a SHOULD BE VIGILANT.

The statement-' of President Gompers to the effect that ."much of the sting of antagonism directed against our movement by both Mr. Parry and those who: follow h«n,".i3 being withdrawn should not have the efect of wooing the working people-in to a sleepy sensefOf security just: yet. The Parrysites mean fight and they don't deny it, and organized labor should not be caught off its guard. It is stated, by the unreliable press, that Mark Hanna will, on Tuesday next, announce himself as a candidate for the Presidency- While we do not credit the report, it may be true. Mark is a queer old boy.. He doesn't like Roosevelt, and he undoubtedly would like to be President. The world moves forward. No man can stand still and keep up with the times. The fellow who is too lazy or too stupid to push ahead Is sure to. be left in the rut- If Uncle Sam can pick up an aimless hobo in time of war and make a useful soldier of him, •vt'hy not pick him up in time of peace and make a useful citizen of him? Not until every cjiild born into this world is possessed of a home and all the comforts enjoyed by others will the work of genuine humanitarians be completed. The initiative and referendum sys tem of making laws is the only thing that will knock the boodlers out, but the "puritans" don't say a word about it. No man is a friend of labor who does not believe the laborer is entitled to the best the worU affords and strive to help him get it. Those who produce the good things of this world should enjoy them. HOW HE WAS UNMADE. The newspaper correspondent, who gets a near view of great men, has pity for human infirmities, and, as a conse quence, sees more than he tells and hears more than he prints. Sometimes he writes more than is permitted to go into the colums of his paper. The prop rietor, who, in these days, is generally a millionaire, has his business, his social, his political and his financial •nterests, and he looks after them carefully. There may be' a newspaper proprietor who wants to print all the news, regardless of his own interests, but he is so rare as to "fete an exception to the rule. We have often thought that there would be a great field for a newspaper in any of our large' cities, whose policy and province it wiftildbeto print only the suppressed news of the other pa pers. One page of it would be profit able set aside for" corrections, dem'als and explanations of the articles that were printed in the other papers, but were either incorrect, false, or ob scure. That is one side of the shield of journalism. The other, which has al ready been indicated, is its kindness its unknown an unappreciated kind ness—to public men and women. Many a statesman walks the streets of Wash ington to-day, a monument to the charity of good-will of the newspaper correspondents. Occasionally, some narrow-minded public man, in the se clusion and safety of his own apart ments, speaks contemptuously of the newspaper fraternity. Would it sur prise you to know that his fame has been made by what the correspond ents have written of him? Or that his reputation has been saveti by what they indulgently had not written about him? There was once a young man who went to Congress, and was made by the newspaper correspondents—and then unmade by the same power. He delivered a clever little maiden speech and, as the correspondents rather liked him, they "featured" him in their dis patches. His pictures were printed In most of the newspapers, and anecdotes of his early life appeared in many journals. He was alluded to ag a pros pective Speaker of the House, and it was generally agreed that he would do great things—after he had been elected for the second term. One day, about midway in his first term, a correspondent called upon the budding statesman. He was engaged with some of his constituents from away back so the newspaper man sent in his card. When it was handed to the embryo Speaker,1 his constituents offered to excuse him. "Oh, no," he said, with affected, care lessiiess "it's only one trf those penny a-liners outside he can wait until I get ready to see him." Unfortunately for the Congressman, the door was ajar, and the correspond ent heard the slighting remark. Did he swear or get angry? Oh, no. He had met such men before. He hastened back to his office and that night there was an informal meeting of corres pondents. The case was put before them. "What do you want us to da?" asked one of the men. "Roast him?" "Oh, no," was the reply "not that," "What, then?" "Why, simply ignore him." He was Ignored and his first term in Congress was his last. And this is a true story. MANAGER WASTED.

REPRESENTATIVE OF STRIKING MINERS WELL RECEIVED. Local Unions Respond Liberally to the Appeal for Funds to Aid Striking Miners. Possibility of Agreement Between. American Labor Union and American Federation of Labor. MINNEAPOLIS, January 14.—James Kipvan, a member iqf: the executive board of the Western Federation of Miners, who has been in the city in the interest of his organization, the mem bers of which are on strike iu Colora do, is much pleased at the very cordial reception and support accorded him and the organisation he represents by the unions in this city. Mr. Kirwan appeared before the Trades Assembly Wednesday night and gave an outline of the experiences of the strikers in Colorado under martial law. About 10,000 men are on strike in the different mining sections, and one of the objects of his visit here is to secure funds with which to carry the contest to a successful issue for the miners. The unions are responding liberally. The Western Federation of Miners is an American Labor Union organization, but this fact is not preventing org anized labor generally from lending aid to the men on strike. In speaking of conditions in the west from a labor point of view, Mr. Kirwan said "In the western country, and par ticularly in Colorado, organized labor has been divided against itself. The American Federation of Labor and the American Labor Union—the lat ter at this time a powerful factor in labor matters in the west—have been fighting for supremacy, with the re sult that the unions in both organiza tions have suffered. In Denver, at the present time, there are. two rival central labor bodies, and this fact has had a tendency to demoralize the whole movement. But I am glad t« say that I believe this condition will soon be a thing of the past and that the lion and the lamb will lie down together, so to speak. Arrangements have been made for a meeting of the executive boards of- the American Federation of Labor and the Ameri can Labor Union early in the coming spring, and it is generally understood that an agreement of gome kind which will insure permanent peace in western labor circles will be arrived at. In the meantime the American Federation of Labor is supporting the Western Federation of Miners in its struggle. "The Colorado State Federation of Labor has sent out a call for a con vention of all the unions of the state, regardless of affiliation, to meet in Denver on Jan. U, and it is confident ly expected that this gathering will effect a consolidation of the labor forces. At this convention the stride of the metalliferous miners will be considered and steps taken to solidify the labor elements and eliminate fric tion from the ranksv"-Every-,,one reafc iaeis that in order-to get the Vest reA suits internecine strife has to he done" away* with, and: the followers of the American Labor uion are as anxious for peace as any one. "We are confident of winning in our strike if we receive the support of or ganized labor thruout the United States. Representatives of the strik ers are being sent to eastern cities where work will be done in the way of raising funds and presenting our side of the case to the publics the same as is being done in Minneapolis. The courtesy and assistance extended our cause by the local unions Is indeed gratifying and is greatly appreciated." Mr. Kirwan will remain in Minne apolis about two weeks longer, during which time he will appear before! the various local labor organizations. He will then go to St. Paul. I BUILDING TRADE NOTES A charter has been offered to the New YorRr Housesmiths Union, the new union formed under the auspices of the Association of Bridge and Structural Iron Workers, through its president, Frank Buchanan. The Chicago Stationary Engineers' union has presented a demand for an increase of wages to-the managers of 125 of the big office building^ and the hotel proprietors. Notices of wage reduction were post ed at the McKeesport, Pa., plants of the (United States Stee corporation. Ten thousand men are affected by the wage reduction, which will be generally ac cepted. As a result of a 10 per cent reductoin by the American Car. and Foundry Co. of Huntington, W. Va., 1,300 men have refused to return to work. The United Brotherhood of Carpen ters and Joiners will soon organize loc als in the Philippines. Several thousand steel workers in Pittsburg have reduced wages after January 1. The proposition of a national llome for union carpenters will probably be taken up in the near future. FOREIGN LIBOR MS Seven thousand miners -at the Rio' Tinto copper and-iron mines in Spain aire on strike for increased wages. Six hundred registered trade unions in the United Kingdom are computed to have on hand something over $22, 000,000 for death, sick benefit, out of work and emergency contingencies. Immigration Into the port of New York for the year 1903 has passed all previous records.^ The arrivals have been 619,980, an increase of 72,783 over 1902, which was at the timQ the record year/ The ^largest proportion, about one-quarter of the total has been Ital ians. One hundred and fitynational and international unions .and their subor dinate unions have nqrt less tlmn $100, 000,000 ,.on deposit, while the indiVi- Provident Union Js forty ii. W '5r- .'.J"!

Krimmitschau, a iextile centre of Saxony,, has been the scene for the past' three months of a bitter conflict between the forces of labor and capi tal. The contest is a: trial of strength between the united German textile manufacturers on one side and the So-, cial Democracy on the other. THe employes in the fence depart ment of the National Wire corporations have been notified of an H'per cent re duction in wages. About 400 men are affected." ".X-'?-. The school teachers of New Bruns wick, Canada, have formed a union, and, have agreed on a minimum scale of salaries., The cost of the Berlin, Germany, metal workers' strike is estimated at 400,000 marks, in addition to which 145, 622 marks were paid for strike benefits, a total of over $100,000. Trade unionism is making rapid strides in Germany, Denmark, Sweden end Switzerland, the intention being to Equalize conditions of labor. Stationary engineers in Yorkshire, England, collieries have demanded an eight hour shift Data for the trade unions in Hono lulu, Hawal, shows 187 members in May 1903 against 501 in 1901. 4,000 Montreal, Canada, cotton oper atives will probably have their wages reduced 10 per cent. Women are now being substituted for men in the Italian postal service. New Working Schedule.. New York, Jan. 14.—For the first time since early agreements between the unions and employers in the build ing trades were initiated about 50,000 workmen of New York will go to work under trade agreements beginning Jan uary 1, instead of May 1, which up to now began the industrial year. The new agreements provide for arbitra tion. FREIGHT WRECK. Omaha Train From Chicago Late in Reaching Duluth,, The Omaha train from Chicago, due in Dulufh at 10:55 a. m., did not ar rive yesterday until 6 p. m. It was de tained as the result of a freight wreck near Reedsburg, Wis. The Duluth Fast Mail for Chicago, due to leave* at 5 o'clock, waited for the Omaha and did not get away until 6:30. Under ordinary conditions the trains running in and out of Duluth in all directions are making schedule time, in spite of the fact that the winter thus far has been for the most part very cold. The heaving of the tracks, due to the fact that there was a great amount of moisture in the earth at the time winter set in, does not seriously affect the speed of trains, as the roads are well ballasted and the rails are heavy.

Severe cold and deep finpw were the conditions with, which he had to' con tend. He started on a trip north and west of Grand Marais, a distance of fifty miles and was accompanied by ajv Indian helper and dogs to transport provisions on a toboggan. The snow was more, than two feet deep at all times and in some cases three feet. What made travel especially difficult was the fact that ^he snow was dry and light. The dogs were kept at their task of drawing the toboggan with the greatest difficulty. They would become so tired they would frequently lie down in" the snow and it was hard to get them to move again. The men4 were provided with sn'owshoes but on ac count of the dry condition of the snow they would sink deep into Ihe great white blanket that' covered the- earth, and walking was therefore almost im possible. There were days when the party covered not more than five miles and even four miles was their maxi mum one day. The Indian guide froze his face and hands and the men- and their faithful dogs were pretty nearly exhausted when they at last reached Grand Marais. Mitt*. TV Dp*. E.
