LAND WITHOUT STRIKES.
A Law Which Has Been Remarkably
Successful in New Zealand.


New Zealond has anticipated the rest
of the world by enacting law which
deals so nationally with all trade dis-
putes that 1t has actully prevented
strikes for the last five years. IL Is
impossible to present more than an
outline of the plan.
Both ssociations of employers ana
the trade unions may be Incorporated.
Those which are chartered or reg
istered, choose the members OF their
own board and also the members OF
the court to which disputes are reter-
red. Whether organized or not, the
associations and trade unions are SUB
ject to the law.
The colony of New Zealand is divid-
ed into Industrial districts. for each OF
which there is a conciliation board
elected for three years. 1t consists
of two persons chosen by registered
EMPLOYERS: two by registered trade
unions, and one disinterested person
elected by the four, who is chairman.
When a dispute arises between EN-
ployers and the men in their employ,
either party may refer the matter in
dispute to the district board, which
has full authority to investigate the
facts and to command a settlement.
In case either party will not accept
the decision the matter is referred to
the State court. This consists OF one
person representing the trade unions,
one the employers, and chairman, a
Judge of the supreme court, appointed
by the Governor. The court has "a
three years term and is wisely in
dependent of politics.
A decision by this court Is final and
must be accepted under a penalty for
violation not exceeding C 500, or
S2,500. Moreover, when dispute las
been referred to the Cancellation
board, and until it is finally settled
q strike or lockout is illegal.
That there have been about fifty
cases referred to district boards or tc
the court in the past five years, thai
during that time there has neither
strike nor lockout in New Zealand, and
that in every case the decision has
been accepted by both parties, seems
to prove either that the law is ex
cellent, or that it is eXcellently ad
ministered. Perhaps it demonstrate:
both propositions. The necessity fo
the passage of similar law in thi!
country is to apparent to require ar
gument. Aside from the interests o
the employers and the employed. th'
greater interests of the general publi
demand it.--Youth's Companion.

urer
The afternoon session was opened
with an address by Rev. Chriswell,
Of the Baptist church at Alliance, who
delivered q splendid address, saying
that those people who did not believe in
woman suffrage, are evidently living
in the manner of century ago, and are
rot as progressive as they should be.
He spoke Of woman as mans helper
and equal.
Mrs. Upton followed with an excellent
address on the subject of suffrage, and
DR.. Sarah Brooke, Of Deercreek, read
a paper on What the Franchise would
do for the Home" An Alliance dele
gate read of What the Ballot would do
for Women"
Open questions were then discussed
and responded to by Mrs. Upton, one
gentleman presenting quite a number
of them to her.
Miss Middaugh was elected a member
of the county press committee and
Mrs. Rice appointed a member Of the
county organization committee.

GENERAL sHERwoOD's ADDRESS.

The address of General I. r. Sher-
wood, at the assembly room in the city
hall Friday night, was q mastery pre-
sentation of the issues of the campaign.
Probably no speaker in the country
has a greater fund Of information than
General Sherwood and there is no more
versatile orator in the state. Ripe in
experience, he has facts and history
available at all times, and It matters
not what phase Of the campaign his
attention is being directed to, there is
always documentary proof to fortify
what he says. He treated many SUBJ
jects in the campaign in his speech at
the assembly room. but his presenta-
ton Of militarism was probably the
most effective as he directed the minds
OF his hearers into new channels. He
said that long before there was a gun
fired in the Philippines the president
Of the United States had made every
plan for the forcible rentention of the
Islands and had his soldiers ready to
shoot down the first Filipino that dared
to pass the American lines. He DEM
oilstrated that long before he sent an
army to free the Cubans he sent any
army to Manila to subjugate the inhab-
itants, who had Spain licked from every
part of the island and driven within the
walls of Manila.
His reference to the supreme court
decisions on the legality of the war
was feature of his address.
No man in the Democratic party in
Ohio today is so well equipped as Gen.
eral Sherwood and he is regarded by
the state committee as the best stumper
in the field today. General Sherwood is
an elector-at-large on the Democratic
state ticket and the people VIII have a
chance to vote for him.
The Bryan and Stevenson club is to
be congratulated upon securing the
services of SO able a speaker, though
the general was pleased to come and
talk to his old friends, and so expressed
himself.

The Honorable Charles Dick, chair
man of the Republican state commit
tee, does not associate with the rabble.
He is running for congress in the nine
teenth district, and hasn't made a
speech of any consequence there yet,
nor has he done any circulation among
the people to show his interest in them.
Thousands of Republicans in his dis
trict never saw him. He finally con-
descended to attend a meeting at War
rem, but stipulated that it should not
be In hall or in the open air. He
didn't care to talk to lot of open
nouthed yankees of the western re-
serve, so he had the boys to get UP a
private banquet, with the price so high
that the man with only the full-dinner-
pail could not approach, and then he
and Governor Nash went in style, par
took Of the tempting viands, while the
hungry victim of the trusts gazed In
the windows. Dick never forgets his
own diner-pail, If he is inclined to over
look those of his constituents.

present. at least, were not to be placed
In that class.
At the close of Mrs. Upton's address,
Mrs. Eleanora Wyant sang Isl and L.
in very beautiful voice.
WOMEN IN A CAMPAIGN.
Mrs. Lillian Pardee, of this city, who
formerly resided in the west and was
nominated for state senate in a western
clerk Of the senate. vbgkqj vbgkqj
state, told Of her experiences while
clerk of the senate. She declared that
the claim that woman cannot stand
the work Of campaigning, is all wrong.
She said that she had followed a cam
paign and still retained her health and
splendid physique, and that other
women could do the same.
Mr.. John w. Craine, who was present
at the reception, made a short address,
comparing the woman in a campaign
with the ancient in his wars. He said
the women were working along slowly,
but surely.
At the conclusion OF the speaking in
the reception rooms, the guests were
invited to the handsomely decorated
dining room, where luncheon was
served. The table was beautifully
canopied with yellow ribbon; there was
golden rod in profusion everywhere,
with great banks of nasturtiums on the
sideboard. The predominating color
everywhere was yellow. the colors of
the national suffrage clubs
A very pretty adornment in the re-
ception room was photograph of Miss
Susan B. Anthony which hung just
above the mantle, draped in the folds
Of the American flag, and surrounded
with flowers. There were cut flowers
and potted plants placed indiscrimi-
nately about the reception rooms, pre-
senting an artistic effect.
The table was presided over by Mrs.
Erwin and Mrs. Ramsey, assisted by
the Misses Ruth Rex, Laura Wyant,
Myra Erwin and Miss Tuttle, the latter
two from Buckingham school.
Miss Altaffer, of Alliance, Mrs. Ada
Andrews of Cincinnati, and Miss Hat
tie McMurray, of Bucyrus, the latter a
sister Of Mrs. Thomls F. Turner-and
the two last named Mrs. Turner's house
guests-were the only out of town vis-
itors.

PLACED IN A,YAULT.
Funeral Services Held Saturnay
Morning Over the Late
Mrs. Dewitt.

The remains of the late Lollie C. De-
Witt were placed in the vault at West
lawn cemetery, Saturday morning.
where they will be kept until the hus-
band recovers sufficiently to see to the
burial of his wife's remains. Services
were held at 10 o'clock at the Dueber
avenue M. e. church, of which eongre-
cation the deceased had been a member.
The services were largely attended.
Friends and relatives contributed some
beautiful flowers, which were placed
upon the casket. The husband and son
were not able to participate in the SER
vice, their condition being still serious.
Many sympathetic neighbors and
friends are contributing their efforts in
caring for the Ill members Of the family.

TALKED ON
EQUAL SUFFRAGE.
Pleasant Function at the Home
OF Mrs. James A. Rice.
MRS. HARRIET TAYLOR.UPTON
Was the Guest OF Honor at an Evening Re-
ception-suffrage For Woman Was
the Theme Many Arguments
Presented.

A very beautiful social function Fri
day night was the reception rendered
Mrs. Harriet Taylor-Upton, by Mrs.
James A. Rice and Mrs. r. Erwin, at
the home Of Mrs. Rice, in North Mar
ket street. The affair was attended by
over $50 persons, including ladies as
well as gentlemen and the evening was
most pleasantly spent.
The receiving party included Mrs.
Rice. Mrs. Erwin, Mrs. Upton, Mrs.
Eleanora Wyant, Mrs. Elizabeth Fer
guson, Miss Lillian Middaugh and Mrs.
Eleanora Hall. A mandolin club sta
toned in one Of the reception rooms
dispensed sweet music throughout the
evening. The ladies were beautifully
costumed. Master Donald Ferguson
had charge Of the cloak room.
The function began with a vocal Sc
lection, For all Eternity" by Miss
Maude Crowl, who responded to an en-
core, Governs Snowflake"
Mrs. Rice gave two recitations, 1.-THE
New Woman" and "The Coming
Woman" which contrasted woman's
condition before and after the enfran-
chisement Of woman and equal suf-
frage.
\ Mrs. Upton then proceeded in a brief
address on the question Of suffrage.
She had not always been a suffragist,
she said, but was a convert to the sub
ject through reading. She had even
visited the congressional library and
devoured the contents of volumes on
that subject. An address by Miss Su-
san b. Anthony, that she had once
heard, inspired the Investigations that
resulted in her conversion to suffrage.
WOMAN'S OPPORTUNITY.
She said she believed that woman
would be enfranchised Immediately IL
1t could be proven to the liquor ele-
ment that they are not Prohibitionists,
nor Republicans nor Democrats but that
the woman vote would be divided.
w Woman's work, she said, could not be
counted upon in "blocks Of five," for
voting. The woman's politics are more
often decided by the preference of the
father than the political status of the
husband. In the arguments presented
everywhere on the suffrage question,
the speaker declared. the advocates of
equal suffrage to woman always have
the best of the debate.
The life Of Miss Susan B. Anthony
was extolled, and her heroic efforts in
the past for equal suffrage were dwelt
upon. Mrs. Upton remarked that IL her
present illness should cause her demise,
there would be a beautiful tribute to
her life In the opening of the Syracuse
university for women, for the opening
of the doors Of which she labored so in
cessantly and secured such large sums
The states enjoying woman suffrage
were compared with those which do
not permit 1t. The speaker asserted
that the criminal records of the diff
ferent states showed morality and law
and order were sustained thoroughly
In the states having suffrage.
There was . time. ArA Upton said.
