THAT glorious wave of prosperity
has caused a strike of the tailors in
New York, and between $4,000 and
10000 have walked out. The men
were only earning about SIS per
week, and ask for a rate that will
give them from SO to SO. They
were unable to subsist on the wages
paid, and contend that they might
as well starve without work as to
work like slaves and starve at the
same time. What hellroaring good
times we are havingl

ONE day last week 915 Irish girls
landed in New York, and Eastern
papers are declaring this a sign of
the return of prosperity. Under
favorable conditions no class of i'm
migrants would be more welcome
than those buxom, rosey-cheeked
lassies from the Green Isle, but
when we already have millions in
dire distress-suffering the pangs
of hunger for lack of employment,
it is absurdly ridiculous to think of
such movement as being other
than injurious-both to the country
and these young girls, with a pos
sible fate before many of them not
pleasant to contemplate.

tai is always protected by the gov
eminent, even to the extent of using
firearms, and why labor should not
organize on the same lines there is
no good reason set forth. From all
standpoints of the labor question
in the past ten years it daily be-
comes more apparent that the white
slaves of this country will have to
give up packing torchlights in po-
litical campaigns and shoulder
arms to gain their emancipation.

The Result Of Late Garthquakes.

The big mud island that sudden
ly arose from the bed of the ocean,
near Ell Moro, San Luis Obispo
county, as a result of the earth
quake shocks on last Thursday
night, still stands in its original
position. A few parties have ven
tured quite near it, and have no
ticed that its surface swells and
subsidies in spots which indicates
seismic forces still at work. There
are no signs of heat near it and this
puzzles the local scientists. No one
seems to have any great desire for
a very close investigation, but are
satisfied to view it at a safe dis
lance.

AND still she rollsl Last week
seventy men in the Portsmouth, O.,
car shops we're discharged because
of the inability of the employers to
sell their manufactured goods. This
adds seventy men to the already
large list of unemployed, and
makes it just that much harder for
all to get work.
In the same week the employees
of the Westinghouse Air Brake Co.
at Pittsburg were compelled to sub
NIT to a reduction of wages of from
20 to 40 per cent. The wages now
paid will not allow the men with
families to live any better than
coolies.
And the probabilities are that
nine-tenths of these men voted for
the administration which is making
these glorious good times.
Will they do it again?
