Milwaukee, Sept. 20. = Judge James
G.. jenkins, of the United States cir
cult court, is at present in a darkened
room in ST. Joseph's hospital in this
city, after an operation performed on
his eyes for cataracts. 1t will not be
known for several days how successful
the operation has been. The surgeons
believe the sight will be restored.
Should the operation fail to give him
the use Of his eyes to some degree he
may retire from the bench. Friends
of the judge say he has not as yet
come to any decision. Three months
ago the judge submitted to pre-
li1ninary operation, and since that time
he has transacted all the business OF
his court, although practically blind.

latest session passed law prescribing
a minimum wage for children. No boy
under 18 years must be employed in q
factory or workroom at less than $1.2j
per week. and no girl at less than $1.OO
The object of the law is to correct a
long-standing abuse of the apprentice
system, Inscriptions employers in
dressmaking and millinery establish
ments having been accustomed to take
young girls into their employ. keep
them II months without paying cent
in the way of wages. and then turn

New Zealand insists that there are
three parties to every labor dispute

public. Whichever one the public sides
with is the majority, and the majority
must rule. Public opinion is really the
arbiter in New Zealand, because the
public, using it's democratic powers
gets what no other public does get, the
facts on which to form its opinions, and
clothes its opinion, so made, with the
machinery of justice to make itself
effective.

To establish municipal printing
plant in New York City has been a pet
hobby of Mr.. Coler ever since he has
been comptroller. He has succeeded in
obtaining the active support of the
Typographical Union in his efforts to
realize the success of this long cherish
ed scheme to benefit the city of New
York. Mr.. Coler contends that not
only will municipal printing plant be
a great saving to the city in the long
run. but it will also be of great benefit
to the" printers. The printers have
shown their appreciation of the latter
fact by setting to work to do all they
can to bring about the esta ablishment of
such plant. ...
President James P. Rahal of Typo
graphical Union No. 6 has appointed
"a committee to persuade the Charter
Revision Commission to recommend a
municipal printing office for New York
City. The committee has placed in the
hands of the commission resolution
adopted by the union and arguments
favoring such a city institution. Plans
and statistics which the union printers
helped to supply have been submitted
by Comptroller Coler to show that the
project is not only feasible, but calcu-
lated to save much money public

During June, July and up to the pre-

have lost on account of strikes, lock-

100000 working days. ~
In some cases the strikes have been
settled, but no broad solution of the.
trouble has been found, and If the la
Dor authorities are reliable the num-
ber of persons: left idle by labor trou-9

The strike is in the main being done
by men who have the hardest kind Of
work to do-the dockmen, the coal min
ers, stokers in ships and other unskilled
laborers. ..;s
France has by far the largest num-
ber of difficulties, while England has
had the largest number of men invol-
we'd in strikes.
In France the cause for disputes are
often trivial and the results generally
grave. The cabmen in Paris strike be-

from the exposition they expected. The
postmen, thinking it a good time to tie
up the service, stop work and make g.

and starve for awhile rather than
make munitions of war with which

Hill Visits BRYAN.

Lincoln, July 1.-Ex-S Senator Hill 10 in
Mr.. Bryan's house tonight. and the pro-
posed Democratic platform has been
read to him from beginning to end.
Mr.. Hill does not assent to every
phrase In the platform, but he has made
1t plain that he is pleased with the docu
ment a. hole. Mr.. Hill came to Lin
coin in response to note written to him
by MIR. Bryan, saying that if the New
York leader could find it convenient to
come to Lincoln, he would be glad to
see him. The two leaders have had a
frank talk. AS Mr.. Bryan read the draft
OF the platform to Mr.. Hill. each plank
was discussed fully and fairly.
1t is now certain that there will be no
struggle over the platform Oh the floor
OF the convention, Mr.. Hill told Mr..
Bryan that New York state would be
carried this year by the Democratic
party, and that his only desire was to
secure q platform that would draw con-
servative voters to support the ticket.
The first four pages OF the platform are
devoted to imperialism and a defeuse Of
the declaration Of independence.
The second plank reafnrms the Chi
cago platform in whole and in part, in
letter and in spirit, and renews the de-
mand for tho free coinage of silver and
gold at the ratio Of 16 to l, without wait
ing for the aid or consent Of any other
nation.
Tho reaflrmation OF the Chicago plat
form and the declaration in favor OF free
silver arc contained in the same short
plank.
In reply to Mr.. Hill's argument for
the omission OF the ratio. Mr.. Bryan
said that the Democratic party could
not AFFORD TO evads any question. The
true policy was to be boldly honest. 1t
will be remembered that it was Mr.. Hill
who made the principal speech in the
Chicago convention against the ratio OF
16 to 1, and that it was Mr.. Bryan's IA
mous reply that made him the Demo
cratic nominee for president. The two
men have not met since 1896 until today.
The plank on militarism 10 powerfully
written. It points out tho danger Of q
large permanent standing army, Of a
possible menace to the liberty Of the
American people. Another plank favora
direct legislation by the people. another
name for which is the initiative and re-
