Reasonable and Human.

Hours of labor are eXacted in certain
employments, which cannot be main
tanned without running the constitu-
tons andforbidding the home pleasures
of the haplcss people obliged TO COM
ply with them. The Vienna strike
and the capitulation of the tramway
company furnish lesson. Public as
sociations should consider, before they
are compelled, whether their dealings
with those who serve them are equiti-
able, reasonable and human. 1t may
well happen that arrangements must
often be continuous, that good men
cannot be spared, and that there must
be long spells of work. In that case an
honorable directorate will establish a
system of relays and reliefs; it will
not wear its personnel out body and
soul, as though they were brute beasts
though, indeed, animals are constant
ly treated better than human beings,
by reason of their marketable value.
We would invite all omnibus, railway,
tramcar and public societies generally
to study these occurrences at Vienna in
the light of the certain truth that it is
better to do justice spontaneously than
to have justice forced upon you. The
best work and the biggest dividends
are not got by screwing the last drop
of strength out of willing and necessi-
tous creatures. There must be kindli-
ness, consideration and fair play be-
tween employers and employed if the
worlds affairs are to go on pleasantly
and successfully.-London Standard.

Some day or other every reporter
will carry around a phone craph and
when he interviews man the latter's
words will be taken down with an ac-
curacy admitting of no dispute. Then
when the interviewed gentleman
comes around in the morning like
volcanic eruption to explain that his
language was distorted and all that
sort of thing the reporter can quietly
pull the photograph with one hand
and gun with the other and ask him
what he is going to do about it. When
this scheme can be successfully oper
ated long felt want will be filed.
AS it is at present when a man gets into
trouble because of his remarks being
faithfully printed, he at once swears
that the reporter mixed his words
with an egg beaten and then run them
in. In such manner the guileless
newspaper worker frequently gains a
reputation for lying which he does not
deserve -Lincoln Journal.

An elderly man sat phcidly on the
string piece of far downtown pier,

Frederick the Great worked hard to
beautify this town of his choice, but it
cannot be said that. with all his eff
forts and all the energy of recent
years, it is town which strikes stran-
ger familiar with London or Paris as
one of grandeur or even of dignity.
To begin with, there only exists one
church of architectural interest-in-
terest, because the beauty of the Klos-
terkirche has been destroyed by adj
ditions made about the middle of tina
present century. AS for the cathedral,
that is late, domed edifice, no larger
than a decent parish church in this
country. This poverty is unique.
Look where you will over Europe,
and you will not find single town Of
capital importance so void of that
browning ornament to a city, fine
ecclesiastical building. The defect cam
not be exaggerated. Such buildings
are the durable record of city's life;
each weather beaten stone has an in
terest no less human than scientific,
no less romantic than artistic. We
have our ST. Paul's and Westminster
Abbey, the Parisians their Notre
Dame, Vienna its st. Stephens, Rome
its St Peters: but there no such SER
mons in stone to be read in Berlin, no
building to be admired for its beauty
or revered for its age. Conceive Paris
without Notre Dame. The effect is
nothing short of robbing French liter
allure of Victor Hugo! Nor is Berlin
much better off for secular buildings.
None of them save an inconsiderable
fragment of the old Schloss date ear
/ lier than the Seventeenth century, and
the bulk of the old Schloss is decay
ing plaster faced pile of that unfortu-
nate period. The palaces of the late
Frederick as crown prince were built,
the former some fifty years ago, the
latter thirty, and, though both insig-
nificant in size as compared with the
Buckingham palace, may be admitted
to compete with it in point of STYLE

Each had its separate charter, its separate
officers and its own method Of doing business,
each peculiar to itself, and although all were
working under the same roofs and for the
same firms, for years complete isolation of
one from all the other departments, so far as
trade matters were concerned, was the con-
dition.
Impressed with the necessity for the unfit
cation of all in one grand union, without re-
gard to branches in the business, the mem
bers of the Columbus co. lodge of the Iron
and Steel Roll Hands began the agitation of
the subject of the amalgamation of all the
workers in the iron and steel rolling mills,
and in the fall of 1878 the three local unions
in the Columbus rolling mills formed tenn
porary amalgamated association.
During the two years that followed this &C.
ton by the men at Columbus several confer
ences were held by representatives from the
various unions in most of the important
cities, and constant effort was made by the
thinking men to secure for the craft gener-
ally what Columbus had effected.
While this agitation for better organization
was going on among the men the employers
were taking steps to break the influence of
the unions, and in April, 1874, the first iron
clad" in that trade was introduced. The
HOucldu was anu 10 u III NTltlIlR ,
that the retained employee or the applicant
for work has severed his connection with the
union and will not again become member
under penalty of discharge. The manufact-
urers succeeded, in some places, in breaking
up the unions; but this only made the active
men more determined to strengthen and pro-
tect their organization and the movement
for amalgamation was FASTENED.
On Aup 1916 the three national unions
of the iron trade met in Pittsburg, in differ
ent halls, with the understanding that they
should wind up their affairs, ad iourn sine die
and then all the delegates assemble in one
convention and there form one organization
of the craft for the United States. This pro-
gramme was carried out, and on Aug. 4, in
what was then known as Emerald hail. )" Oh

Columbus O., in August, 1877, it showed a
remarkable growth for the first year of its
existence; and it has steadily increased in
membership and influence during the thir
teen years of its existence The total men,
bership in 1876 the date of organization, was
$500; there are at present 10000 members in
good standing on the roll books of the asso-
citation. The only strike lost by the associa-
ton was that for an advance in wages,
which occurred in the summer of 1882.
Strikes are seldom resorted to, as by the
conference system, through which represent
atives of the manufacturers meet a commit

every summer, the occasion for them is done

the iron mills are now being conducted fills
nearly 100 closely printed pages, so numerous

The Old Order of United Sons of vulcan.
Steady and Solid Growth of the Present
Union-The Conference System" by
Which Wages Are Determined.
The Amalgamated Association OF Iron and
Steel Workers will begin its annual conven-
ton at Pittsburg on Tuesday, June 4. The
nucleus, from which sprung this powerful,
thoroughly disciplined and well regulated
trades union, was formed thirty-one years
ago by few ironworkers In the city of Pitts
burg. There had been attempts at organiza-
ton in the trade prior to this time, and con-
certed action against reductions of wages had
been taken in some of the departments, the
very bitter strike of 1850, which was lost by
the workmen, being noteworthy but until
the formation of the UNITED Sons of Vulcan"
on April II, 1885, no really formidable combi-
nation was instituted. The "Sons of Vulcan"
restricted its membership to puddlers, but its
ideas were broader than any that had pre-
coded it, and after three years of Indifferent
existence it began in 1861 a steady and rapid
growth, which made it, in one year, strong
enough to assert it's power
In September, 1869, the first National
Forge was organized at Pittsburg, and
branches were instituted In New York, New
Jersey, Maryland, Pennsylvania, West Vir-
ginia, Kentucky and Ohio, and employers
were thereafter reminded that where the
wages of the puddlers were concerned there
was an organization of their employees to be
consulted. But the union was not fully rec
ognized by the manufacturers until 1878.
The conference system, through which the
yearly wages scales of the ironworkers are now
arranged was first introduced by the "Sons
of Vulcan" in 1865 when in February of that
year the first regular and Thorough scale of
prices was made AS time passed, strikes and
lockouts were resorted to by both sides to en-
force and resist demands, as the conferences
were not always satisfactory to all employ
ers, and it was not always possible for the
committees themselves to agree
In the meantime other branches of the
trade, known as finishers, heaters, rollers,
