for union contractors. The remaining
10000 are either able to support them
selves or have left the city without
informing the officers Of the unions
Of their intentions. These figures In
regard to the exodus of the men are
as accurate as 1t is possible to give and
are obtained by canvass made among
labor leaders. In estimating the en-
tire number of persons who have left
the city, John A. Long, president OF
the board of business agents of the
building trades council, the man who
is kept best informed Of the state Of
affairs among the unions, declared
Monday that the estimate given is ac-
curate. He estimates that one-fourth
of the membership of the building
trades council has left the city. OF
these he declares 1000 have taken their
wives and children with them. With
the families counted, this would make
the total number of persons who nave
left the city $4,000. To this number
must be added 5000 persons engaged
in the manufacture of building mate
rial who, M. B. Madden declares, have
left the city. One thousand other per-
sons indirectly affected by the labor
troubles have left the city.

President Lynch.

Organized labor In this country has
never witnessed a contest quite so ex-
citing as that which marked tae Sc
lection OF officers of the International
Typographical union. which resulted
last week in the election Of James M.
Lynch of Syracuse for president by a
good majority. Some idea of the mag
nitude of the contest may be CLEANED
when It Is understood that all the
union printers in the United States,
Canada, the West Indies and the Ha-
waiian islands, numbering $4,000 in
ALL cast their ballots simultaneously.
Mr.. Lynch for the past two years has
been first vice president, and his OPP
ponent, S. B. Donnelly of New York,
president of the international. The
campaign was a bitter one. Villifica-
ton. singing and abuse, mostly
through anonymous circulars, were the
most notable features of the contest,
and greatly resembled one Of our ma
tional political elections. President
elect James M. Lynch has every quail
fication for the place. He has been
recording secretary, vice president and
president of the Syracuse Typograph-
ical union, president Of the trades as
sembly for seven years, and fire COM
missioner two years. His matchless
ability as an organizer will be appre-
ciated when his record in Syracuse Is
considered. When he became presi-
dent of the trades assembly there were
but eighteen affiliated organizations,
with membership of about 1900.
When he resigned the presidency, aft
er seven years service, the number OF
affiliated unions had been increased
to forty-five and the membership was
5000. Besides that, Syracuse became
known far and near as hotbed OF
trades unionism, the credit for which
is wholly due to Mr.. Lynch.-Utica

Shorter hours and higher wagcS are
declared to be the substantial fruits OF
labor organization in England. W. U.
Steadman. a labor member Of parlia-
ment, said recently: I'm twenty years
we have reduced by ten hours week
the hours of labor in England, whlle
at the same time increasing wages ~
per cent. Nine hours day Is propa-
bly, very near the average at this time.
Men employed in the building trades
receive between 1Od and lid an hour,
engineers f2 week, shipwrights a.
rs a week, plumbers Is an hour, print
ing trades 38s a week, coal miners 35s
a week. bootmakers 35s week, tailors
in London between G3 and ga week,
tailors in the provinces 36s a week,
bakers from 28s to 35s a week. All
these men work between eight and
nine hours a day." Mr.. Steadman
says the newest feature Of trades un-
ionism is its systematic devotion to
practical politics. He said: I'VE In
tend to use every honorable means to
place our representatives in the public
service where they will do us the most
good. The land is full of working
men and whatever benefits them bene-
fits the British nation. In other words,
the cause of those who pursue the
lowlier callings is the cause of the en-
pire. Organized labor, in my judy
ment, is drifting slowly in the direc-
ton of socialism-not intellectual or
academic socialism, but practical So
cialism. We believe, for instance, that
the people should own all gas and
water plants, tram lines and other
public utilities. There are many ex-
amples of such ownership in Great
Britain, and they augur we'll for a
general application of the idea In the
future"

There was a maiden, gifted fair of face,
Hers loneliness of soul and hers the grace
That fioweth from the fountains there on
high.
Oh, tender frame! Oh, brave and daunt-
less heart!
That thro sad life bore such an arduous
part!
There was wife. grown fairer but more
sad,
The mein now thoughtful that was only
glad:
But on the pure brow, more oft down.
bent,
And In the sweet eyes innocent.
There rested dignity serene,
A quiet, matronly content.
There was a woman. pale, with silvered
hair,
And brow deep lined with sorrow and
with care;
With roughened hand and frame now
wont to stoop;
Not less the strength of all the household
group,
Because SO weak and weary grown.
Twas so we lost her-ended, tife's long
quest;
The evening light was flooding down the
west,
And in its glory, pale and cold she lay.
But yet we know her loving spirit waits
Far, far beyond the sunset gates
To bid us welcome into rest.

THE STEALS IN CUBA.

The story of shame and fraud and
monstrous corruption in Cuba under
the Mckinley military regime grows
in volume and interest because OF the
administrations open Willingness
nay, anxiety-that the real culprits
shall be protected. Figures are crop
ping out occasionally which show
what Yankee robbers can do when
assured of White House protection.
The figures herewith used are fur
nished by the auditor for Cuba.
Among the expenditures for public
works, ports and harbors from July !
to Dec. 81 of last year were: Salaries,
36,155.35; pay rolls, labor, $152.658.H;

the revenues mulcted from the Cubans

THE BOERS.

At present writing the war in Africa
seems to be about ended. A British
army 100000 strong has, after losses
aggregating over 10000, succeeded in
defeating an army of 10000 men, and
in blotting out two prosperous repub-
lies.
The nations of the world have stood
by and witnessed the subjugation of a
few people and no voice has been rails
ed in defense of the brave Burghers.
The sympathy of the American people
has been extended to them, but the
sympathy of the American government
has been with the British. On the
cowardly theory that we must avoid
foreign complications, every encour-
agement has been given the British
government in doing to the South
African republics what she attempted
to do to the American colonies 1875
years ago.
It Is not too late for our govern
ment to save free people from ex-
tinction. The plea of public policy
which has been applied to the conduct
of our administration up to this time
can no longer serve. 1t Is probably not
our province to interfere in wars be-
tween foreign nations, but now that
this war is over, and the Beers have
been punished for daring to oppose the
will of greater power. the American
government is certainly justified in de-
manding that that punishment shall
not extend to the extinction Of the
republics. England may demand in

Kennedy Fayors Trusts.

Experience has demonstrated that
where labor is we'll organized 1t can
get better wages from organized en-
ployers than it can by dealing with
employers as individuals. The glass,
iron and coal industries are recent ex-
amples. The Standard Oil company
has always paid better wages than
competitive industries, and yet the
margin Of its profits was never large.
Its mammoth business will realize
$3.50, 900, 900 per annum on net profit
of l cent a gallon, while the retailer
doing business in a small way can
hardly live on profit Of cents. The
spirit of progress is toward large sales
and small profits. Economists recog-
nize the aggregation Of industry as the
only means Of reaching the minimum
of prices without lowering the pur-
chasing power of the wage-worker.
But organized labor must be careful
not to be made the tool Of corporations
in their fight against governmental
regulation. Cooperation, concentra-
ton and governmental supervision Is
written over the portals of the new era
which we now enter. Organized labor
will not be found in the rear OF the
great onward movement Trusts and
trades unions are the best examples of
the triumph Of mind over its environ
ment. When their work is finished 1t
will be found that they were the pion-
GERS in Industrial emancipation. The
trust is building better than 1t knows.
