recently rendered a decision, in which he
holds that the law of the Longshore Union
Protective Association, making it compul-
sorry on members not to work for less than
forty cents per hour, is void, as being
against public policy, and that members of
the Association dismissed for its violation
must be reinstated. This decision aft, cts 500
members of the Union, expelled for the dis
obedience of said law, as well as Trades
Unions generally.

AN attempt was made, on the night of the
2d, to wreck an express train on the st. Louis
4 San Francisco Railroad, near Woodend
Station, fifty miles west of st. Louis, but
only the engine and baggage-car were thrown
from the track, the engineer, fireman and
physician of the road being killed The out
rage was committed by q gang of robbers,
who fired shots at the cars, their object
doubtless being to throw the entire train
from the track and rob the express and plum
der the passengers.

tention was to run the entire train off the

der the train. Four of the gang were still at
large All parties concerned are farmers and

living-his labor is his only capital. The
only and sole object of both parties is that
of making money; friendship and social
interests are Lot supposed to enter into the
relationship at all. Hiring and selling
labor is a business transaction wholly.
This being the case, how important it is
that the terms and conditions of the con.
tract be thoroughly understood by both
parties, beforehand; for the better protec-
ton of both, there should ne written
contract, made and executed in the pres
ence of a witness. In case the employer
has any doubts about the faithful per-
fOrmance-of the agreement on the part of
the party to be employed, he should insist
on a substantial guarantee that the terms
shall be faithfully carried out. This is
not unreasonable and the only test of re-
IsponsIpIIIIy he can secure.
8 Very many times, indeed, it is a yearly
occurrence, that where verbal agreement
Is made and there is nothing binding in it
the hired man will feign indisposition or
some other silly excuse, and leave his en-
plOyer just when he needs his services
more than at any previous time, and when
he isunable to find other help. Doubt
less in most cases of this kind a written
contract would have prevented loss 10
ton to the employer. In case minor is
employed the contract should be with the
father or guardian or they should guaran-
tee for the party employed. This done
there is then more, confidence between the
hired man and his employer, both expect
to fulfill the agreement and there is no
ground for suspicion or doubts. Aside
from the question of living squarely up
to the contract, there is very often a good
deal of meanness developed in this rela-
ton. The employer crowds his man early
and late; he allows him no time for read
ing or recreation; he treats him as social
inferior; he puts the hardest jobs upon
him and assumes the air of a petty tyrant.
In other cases the hired man is favored in
every way possible, and he rewards his
employer for his kindness by shirking
whenever he has an opportunity; by neg
lecting things which he well knows
should be done; by Indifference to the
interests of the business, whether farming
or trade. This is all wrong The en-
ployer should be kind, charitable and
generous to his men, and they should
seek to take care of the interests of the
man for whom they labor and make them
their own for the time being.-Detroat
Tribune.

The Hired Man. and the Man Who
Hires.

The relations between the emplger and
the man he employs are intimateand i'm
portant; but they are often greatly mis-
understood, and out of this msunder-
stood relationship arise neglect, scold-
ings, quarrelings AMI, sometimes, law
suits and loss of time and properly The
man who hires expects to reap money
advantage from the labor OF theman he
employs: and the man who ders his
labor does so. because he has noting else
to use wherewtth to increase his heans of
