upon the provision exempting labor
unions from the operation of the Sher

forgotten for the time bc'ng, and labor
as an oppressed or as a privileged

some interesting inings.
The Sherman bill was presented to
the senate on Feb. 28, 1890. Senator
Sherman rose in his seat and offered
an amendment. In offering it he said:
"I take this provision from the amend
ment proposed by the senator from
Mississippi. Mr. George. I do not think '
it necessary, but, at the same time, to
avoid any confusion. I submit it to .
come at the end of the first section." j
The amendment was as follows: 1
Provided that this act shall not be
construed to apply to any arrange- .
ments, agreements or combinations be
tween the laborers made with a view
of lessening the hours of labor or the
increasing of their wages; nor to any
arrangements, agreements, or combina
tions among persons engaged in horti
culture or agriculture, made with a
view of enhancing the price of agri
cultural or horticultural products,

Article 6 When a second fireman is

the matter will be taken up with the
proper officials by the Firemen's Com
mittee. Failing to reach a settlement
the matter shall be referred to an Ad
justment Commission, to be composed
of five persons, two of 'whom are to
be chosen by the railroad, two by the
Firemen's Committee, and one selected
by the four thus chosen, who shall be
the chairman of the commission.
Should the four men fail to agree upon
the fifth, then three days after the last
of the four is selected, the fifth man
bill was reported out of the committee
without the amendment, and in the un
amended form it was passed. Of this
action president Samuel Gompers of the
American Federation of Labor says.
"Though at the time we doubted the
wisdom of that amendment being j
omitted, we were assured by several
that under the reconstructed bill, labor
and agricultural organizations were
not included."
This assurance, however, appeared to
be ill judged, because, as it is well
known, labor unions have been prose
cuted under the Sherman act for sev
eral years. But the records show con
clusively that tho intent of the author
of the bill as well as of some of its
advocates was that labor unions should
be exempted.

The A. F. of L. Active
It so happens that these words ex
press precisely the view which is held
by the American Federation of Labor,
the leader in the campaign for the
amendment. It is a matter of interest
that this amendment was first offered
in the last congress by representative
W. B. Wilson, now the president's ad
viser on labor matters In the cabinet.
The labor people in Washington re-
diminished by the provisions of this 1 gard the exemption rider to the sundry
civil bill as a restoration ot tne orig
inal intent of the law, not as essentially
new legislation. They point out that
labor unions are amenable under other
laws for their misdeeds, either through
their officers or else through their
corporate organization, and they urge
that since there is no "labor trust" It is
absurd to enforce a measure against
labor intended to break ud industrial
trusts and monopolies. They argue,
further, that if the Sherman law were
amended as Mr. Brandels and Mr. Le
Follette and Mr. Wilson and others
seem to bellve that it ought to be
amended, namely, by specifying cer
tain practices as Illegal, then it might
logically apply to the unions. But the
labor people fall to see the justice of
Mr. Taft's veto, and are .looking for
ward with confidence to the passage of
the exemption by the Democratic ad
ministration, whose national platform
declares that "there should be no
abridgment of the right of wage earn
ers and producers to organize for the
protection of wages and improvement
of labor conditions, to the end that
such labor organizations and their
members should not be regarded as 11-
awara; and II the rates that were
higher or the conditions that were
better antecedent to this award are
necessary to guarantee this require
ment they shall be maintained. Neither
shall the earnings of the firemen in
any class of service, be increased above
