AGAINST CHINESE LABOR
Efforts to Have Soldiers Uniforms
Made by Free White People

Shortly after 1t became known that Chi
nese were employed in the making of uni
forms for the soldiers who have been called
to the front, Labor Commissioned E. L.
Fitzgerald, at the request of the working
men and women of this city, sent letters to
several of the Pacific coast representatives
at Washington asking them to do all in their
power to induce the war department to give
the work to white people. Mr.. Fitzgerald
has received the following answer:
Dear Sir: Judge Mcguire has just sent
me your note of the 25th ultimo regarding
the employment of Chinese labor ETC., in
the manufacture of clothing for our troops
fully agree with you, although if we are
to annex the Philippines, etc., it is hardly
necessary to make any serious kick, for we
might as we'll get ready for the future
However, holding the view that do upon
all these subjects, have been able to Wig
orously protest against the employment
of such labor. There can be but one jusfi-
fication for it, viz: The necessity of pre-
pairing the troops for the field, and think
you have shown that there is nothing in
that claim, and your plain way of putting
it ought to help our people materially.
Yours very truly,
"STPHEN M. WHITE"

Volunteer Army Nurses Disband

The volunteer army nurses organization
met Wednesday evening at the call of the
president to consider ways and means of
condensing the work and to continue to re-
ceive instructions at the county hospital
and the lectures at the medical college.
1t was decided to abandon the volunteer
army organization.
Notice is given that all having filled
application blanks in this organization, as
well as those desiring to take this hospital
course and free lectures, should apply at
the Red Cross headquarters to Mrs..J. M.
Griffith, and join the Red Cross society at
membership fee of ST.
The original object of the organization
was to prepare its members to become
army nurses. If the time comes for the
government to call for army nurses it will
be only through the Red Cross society.

Spanish Railroads

There are in Spain 1850 miles of railroad,
less than one-third the number in Great
Britain, France or Russia, and less than one
fourth of the number in Italy. The relative
insignificance of the Spanish railroad sys-
tenn appears best in comparison with Amer
lean railroads, a single line, the Chicago.
Burlington and Quincy, having an aggre-
gate mileage of 7400, owned, operated or
controlled or nearly as much as all the rail-
roads of Spain combined. Spanish railroads
are proverbially slow, the rate of express
trains between twenty and twenty-five miles
and of way passenger trains from twelve to
fifteen. They seldom run on scheduled
time, and it is the testimony of all travellers
that they never make connections. The
amount of baggage allowed each first-class
passenger on Spanish railroad is sixty-six
pounds. but the railroads are not RESPONSE
BILE for its loss, nor are the officers respon-
sible for its identification. The charges on
Spanish railroads are remarkably high,
being at the rate of cents mile on first
class trains and cents mile on second
class trains, about double the American av-
erage.
The difficulties Of passenger traffic on
Spanish railroads are enhanced in some
particulars which are rather amusing than
serious. Passengers are expected to arrive
at the station at least half an hour before
the train leaves in order that sufficient al
lowance may be made for the diatory pro-
ceedings Of the railway officials. During
part Of each day (and in some cities the
larger part of each day. the railway sta
tions are closed and the ticket offices do
not open until an hour before the time
scheduled for the departure of the train,
closing a quarter of an hour before it Is
due.
The hapless tourist, in compliance with
Spanish railroad custom. must have his
ticket before he is permitted to enter the
waiting room, and as the ticket must be
bought fifteen minutes at least before the
train starts, and as the train may be any
where from an hour to three hours late,
his opportunities for reasonable complaint
are numerous, and not diminished by a
knowledge of the fact that he is paying
more for his ticket, according to the dis
lance Travelled, than is the rule on American
or English railways.
One popularity of railroad travel in Spain
is to be found In the fact that employees of
the railroad company are entitled, as mat
ter of right, to the best seats, even regard
less of the tickets sold Observation-Disclosures
