No Remembrance Received.

1t is said at the State Department that no
Representations have been received from the
British consul at Chicago or elsewhere
concerning the mounting of two cannons on
the ship used by the naval reserve of
Illinois, on the ground that this is con-
trary to the treaty limiting the number Of
Warships on the lakes. If any official at
tentlon has been given to the matter by
the British official it is said the report
would go either TO the British embassy or
to the foreign office. and that IL would be
some time before diplomatic representations
resulted The foreign consuls do not make
direct representations to Washington, but
10 their governments. In the present in
stance 1t is thought the matter is not of
Sumcient Importance to bring out any dip
lomatfc representations.

Chicago's Free Employment oHice..
From the Chicago Tribune.


Wednesday nearly 200 men and women
got work through the just opened state free
employment offices. But for them many
of these seekers for work would have fail
ed TO get it. If these offices keep up the
pace they have started out with nobody
VIII dispute their value or begrudge the
small amount of money they cost the tax
payers. 1t is often the case that one set of
men want work and another set want
workers, but neither knows where to look
Tor the other. The worker wastes his time
in wandering from shop to shop without
happening to hit on the one where he is
needed. The employer may stick I'D a
sign mat he needs help, but the right man
may not happen to see ii. The new en-
ployment offices form common meeting
ground for those who wish to buy labor
and those who wish to sell it. If, for a
small expenditure, employer and employee
can be brought together and the latter
saved from spending days of enforced idle
ness, the community is the gamer.
