MAY DAY PASSES OVER QUIETLY.

BOTH In this country and In Europe
May Day passed over quietly, notwlth.

posed would characterize the day. Wath
the exception OF a few red flags cap,
tured by the chicago police, and some
bomb explosions which did little dam
age, the day both at home and abroad
was not productive Of any serious
event.
The labor agitation at present seems
directed towards tho adoption Of AN
,lght'hour labor day, aud the abolition
Of the "truck.store" system. In Ohio,
Pennsylvania, Illinois and several
other States, laws were passed prohib.
iting employers from holding

has been declared unconstitutional by

ground that It abridged the personal
