MAY, President. 20 Count 'Em 20 Labor Day Country Store Committee. Store Is To Be Big Feature Of Outing. Labor Day is drawing nigh and with it the big celebration. There will be many features this year as the com mittee is determined to mftke this the greatest celebration within the history of organized labor in Hamilton. This is only in line with cities everywhere. President Gompers has issued an ap peal to organized labor throughout the country for fitting celebrations of the day and that they should be of patriotic nature. The appeal of Pres ident* Gompers is not to go unheeded in Hamilton, judging by the activity of the committee. While many new features have been added to the pi*ogram, yet it was de cided to stay with the old fashioned country store as one of the numbers. There has been many country stores 011 the fairgrounds in the past, but the one on Labor Day this year will eclipse any ever put up on the grounds. Every organization is lending its efforts to ward the success of this store. Since the announcement of the committee in charge of this feature, there has been no doubt of its success.

JUl f^i IE" Child Labor Rule Is Wrong, Says Wisconsin Editor. Because of One Tudge's Guess, Southern Children Go Back To The Job. Madison, Wis.—The editor of the Capital Times does not mince matters in his opposition to the decision of the United States supreme court which invalidated the federal child labor law. "The greatest obstacle in the pro gress of democracy in this country," says the editor, "has been the right, arrogated to itself by the supreme court, to stay the wishes of the people, spoken through their chosen repre sentatives. Here is a doctrine that enables seven or eight men, appointed for life and totally out of the reach of the people, to say that the men chosen by the people cannot act for the people. "The people of this country were back of the law aimed to protect the ehilren of the south from the tradi tional exploitation of southern em ployers. The law goes into effect. But no—the supreme court says we can't have such a law because of some musty precedents laid down by some body long since dead and buried. And even the supreme court, itself couldn't a*ree on the question and handed down a decision on which the court was practically evenly divided. "And so, because one judge guessed differently than the other judges, we go back to the old* system—more children will be sent to early graves and sacrificed on the altar of greed because an instrument of democracy has been nullified by an instrument of autocracy taken to itself by the su preme court." r,. !«, ». LONG HOURS OBJECTED TO Virginia, Minn.—The state federa tion of labor has asked state officials to stop women on street cars working in this state 10 and 12 hours a day. The convention denounced an "arbi tration" policy of state officials and pledged its adherence to the presi dent's proclamation and rulings by the national war labor board. Other declarations were: Against the establishment of a public utilities company, favor woman suffrage and old age pension, favor free education ad rehabilitation of injured industrial workers as well as soldiers and sail ors, indorse free medical, surgical and dental treatment for school children and favor amendment of United States constitution to prevent courts from passing upon validity of laws..
