Complaints from employers of large ffice forces have resulted in a new form of insurance and the safest and sanest policy yet adopted for the protection of the toiler who lives in daily fear of los ing employment.

We have no patience with the trade unionist who says the union label and the agitation in its behalf have no real value to the trade ' union movements, because, wherever we turn, evidence to the contrary is so overwhelming that we ure forced 4o the belief that any man or woman who takes this position U really an ostrich to all intents and pur poses, for surely his head is in the ground or else he could see what is so plain in every direction. It is only a few short weeks since a committee of the manufacturers' asso ciation made the following recommenda tion to a convention of that body: "As the presence of n union label on printed matter is an indication that this emanates from a shop closed to non union printers, it represents a discrim ination against a great class of American workmen that should be the concern of every man who believes in an equal op portunity to labor. The committee ad vises those who believe in the principles of the 'open shop' to return union-labeled printing, marked with appropriate eom ment, and give patronnge to printing concerns ignoring the label." The truth about these calamity howl er in the trade union movement, who are always ready to find fault with union-made goods nnd the union label? in that they are only "card" men; that is, a class of men who are content to take everything that coined their way through no effort of their own, who an in the trades unions for no other than a selfish motive and who vrould tear up their cards at once, did tney feel rea sonably sure they could secure as good conditions outside of a union as they do within its beneficent fold. It is unfortunate that our movement, like a great many other movements for the uplift of mankind, has to be ham pered by this class of men, and it is to our everlnsting credit that, in spite of them, undeniable progress is being and will continue to be made, and we say to them, In all charity, while they are receiving conditions of social and finan cial betterment, through the trade union movement and the union label bv th, efforts of unselfish men and women, if they will not do their share in this great work, the least they can do is to take what is given them, through no effort of their own, in silence, and not will fully attempt to hinder and retard a movement which they will do nothing to advance. During the recent session of the Brit ish Trade Union congress in Newport. Eng., compulsory arbitration of tradej disputes was strongly opposed by Brit- j ish trade unionists, and the delegates i cast an overwhelming vote against the: adoption of the principle. Nearly 2.0OO, 000 members of the trade union were represented by 500 delegates. will be there and Charlotte Bronte, Tol stoi, pessibly Bernard Shaw, although he is not very human reading to the workingman, and assuredly H. ).

I have broken my hands on your granite, I have broken my strength on your steel, I have sweated through years for your pleasure, I have worked like a slave for your weal And what is the wage you have paid me, You masters and drivers of men? Knough so I come in my hunger To beg for more labor again! I have given my manhood to serve you, I have given my gladness and youth; You have used me, and spent me, and crushed ine, And thrown me aside without ruth; You have shut my eyes off from the sunlight, My lungs from the untainted air; You have, housed me in terrible places, Surrounded by equalcr and care. I have built you the world in its beauty, I have brought you the glory and spoil; You have blighted my sons and my daughters, You have scourged me again to my toil; Yet I suffer it all in my patience For somehow J dimly have known That some day the worker will conquer, Jn a world that was meant for his own. Alex. Ironside, Correspondent. Don't Try to Educate Old People. In an article entitled "Making Old People Happy," in the October Wom an's Home Companion, appears the fol lowing: "Don't attempt to reason any old per son out of principle inculcated in youth. You cannot teach them that drafts are hot dangerous, nor that there is nothing intrinsically deadly in night air. In general, modern hygiene may be relaxed for the old. A body which has thriven for eighty years or so upon scandalously unhygienic principles of eating, exercise, , and ventilation - may well .go on thriving to the end of the chapter. . An amazing quantity of sweet may often be taken without harm. "The same principle of non-interference with the notions of a lifetime may wisely be applied to less material things. Modern views, whether, on higher criti cism or the hygienic neglect of babies, had better not be forced on the atten tion of old minds, being merely unset tling and painful."

Tn fJiCT .iimnt-tii.m rulluil "Tli Inter preter's House," in the September Auj-t erican Magazine, appears the following':!

At timse Mr. Lit- i tleton of New York has shown signs of possessing the ancient gifts, but hip, early southern training is too much fr him and he is apparently incapable qi resisting for more than live minutes, the lure of fale metaphor, alliteration, and' the other vices of trumpery oratory. "The reason for the decline seems plain enough. Always in this country the lawyers held almost a monopoly ofi public speaking. Their practice at thai liar kept them in constant training for' their occasional appearances on the plat form. Nowadays the best lawyers ga seldom to court. They stay close ln(i their offices, applying knowledge of the11 law and ingenuity in reasoning that; would be thrown away on the average judge, to the building up and safeguard-; ing of large business undertakings in ' which they are partners as well as coun sel. They have altogether neglected the! art of addressing the crowd and have' neither the time nor the inclination for the physical training which all great, orators have found essential to the pro duction of their calculated effects." i Are You?

The American Federation of Labor receives newiipapers and ther publica tions from every part of the civilized world. Recently a publication at Auck land, Xew Zealand, found its way into headquarters and is authority for the statement that the labor unions in that country are fast canceling their registra tions under the conciliation and arbitra tion act. in order to be able to stop work at any time, should they deem it advan tageous to do so. It is also stated that these organizations are joining the re cently organized Xew Zealand Federa tion of Labor, which advocates the prin ciple of Hie right to strike. There is at present a miners' strike at Wailii. in the north island and according to th.- same authority, this dispute, commenced more than three months ago. is being waged principally on the question of the right of trade unions to withdraw from the conciliation board. Thus "the coun try without strikes." where compulsory arbitration has been in vogue, is wit nessing a contest against a ' system which has been heralded throughout th.; world as a solution of the labor prob lem.

Clarence Emery, who has been here ten days from Seranton. Fa., with his rlealing with the recent strike of the Welsh miners, asserted that the reason why the Welsh miners were so per sistent in their demand was dua to "the divine discontent bred by contact with literature." An excernt from this arti cle is worthy of consideration and is as follows: "In former years, the Welsh man had nothing in the house but the Bible and 'Jessica's Prayer.' Xeither of these instruments of culture taught him, apparently, to be dissatisfied with Iim lot. Rut the shilling library has pene trated his country and now the miners' library is full of the 'combustibles.'" says the writer.
