Church Women and Mincemcat.
From the Indianapolis News. .,.-
A new way to raise money for church
and charitable purposes was discovered by
the women Of Wall Street Methodist Church
of Jeffersonville, which has one of the
largest congregations in that city. AS soon
as the cool weather comes they hold
weekly meeting. and there they prepare
mincemeat. Each one of them has her
special duty assigned. They have managed
to establish such a reputation for Nan
street mincemeat that they can hardly sup
ply the market, and profits how into their
Golfers from the sales. The grocers are
anxious to obtain 1t, and many private
families are supplied on orders ali winter
long.

Employers Undesiral, bic Member,


With the growth and extension of our
federal labor unions. we occasionally
find a difficulty which is increasing and
one which requires constant correspond
ence ard attention. Through a false no.
ton inculcated during the. existence of the
Knights of Labor, 1t is difficult in some
instances. to convince our members of
federal labor unions of the absolute ne
cessity to maintain the clear-cut character
of Our movement as wage earneIs' move
ment. Often through expressions of kind
ly feelings. employers. superintendent,
foremen and business men of the local
tiles are accepted as members. 1t has
occurred that when the enforcement of
the laws and the policy of the federation
has been insisted Upon, it was assumed
that an injustice was practiced. The ex-
rerience gained that workmen are often
reluctant ir expressing their true senti-
ments or are prevented from taking such
action as would tend to protect them
against any wrongs inflicted upon them by
their employers, in word. have been
placed practically in their unions in the
same defenseless position as they are in
their employment. Again, business men

time we should endeavor to secure the
passage of the bill known as the O'Neiil
bill, which, with slight changes, would be
of great advantage.
Railroad Safety Appliances.
A little more than four years ago our
federation co-operated with the railroad
employees brotherhoods to secure the pas
age of a law known as the Safety appli-
s,nce act" passed March ., 1893. Under the
terms of the law, the railroads were re-
uuired to equip all their cars with uniform
couplerS and train brakes by january l,
1898 A provision of the law gave the in
terstate commerce commission power to
grant a reasonable extension should that
be necessary. The commission gave hear
ing upon applications made. The compa-
MES asked for an extension of five years
The railroad brotherhoods' representatives,
realizing under the circumstances the i'm
possibility of immediate enforcement, con-
scented to one year. While conceding the
practicability of our fellow workers propo-
sftion, acquiesced in their views. but took
occasion to enter a protest against the
failure of the railroad companies to COM
ply with the law, and against any undue
extension of time within which they should
be required to comply with its terms. An
by the commission, with the proviso that
the railroads be required to make quarterly
reports of the progress they are making.
Immigration Question.
Inasmuch as there is no doubt that Con-
gress will, at an early day, take up this
subject of immigration, our convention
should define the attitude which our IN
coming officers shah take in regard thereto
For years our movement has been claimed
to side with those who favored or opposed
restriction or exclusion of immigration.
There should be no equivocation as to our
position on any question, much less one of
such Importance.
Inasmuch as our convention opens almost
at the same time with the beginning of
new Congress, we should formulate and
early press our demands for legislative re-
lief. There Is no doubt. IL good Judgment
prevails in the selection of such demands
as we may make. and they are persistently
brought home to the attention OF Congress,
we shall be more successful in our efforts

Several bills were introduced in Congress
dealing with the evil which has grown up
