worth. When it is backed up, as is the
cigarmakers' blue label, for instance
by recourse to careful business methods
on the part Of those who are responsible
for its appearance its commercial value
is plainly recognizable.
So true is this of the trade union label
that it's principle has been adopted In
direction which has little connection with
labor movements Of any kind Within
short time, the Consumers League, an
organization which exists for the purpose
of improving the conditions under which
the very poor make their living, has
adopted distinctive label. That organ
ization, after the fullest investigation,
reached the conclusion that the best way
to suppress tenement house labor In the
large cities was to demand goods bearing
Its label This label does not increase
in any way the cost of the goods wnlcn
bear it, but merely certifles that they
are produced by laborers working under
approved conditions.
The plan involved is beyond all ques-
ton an excellent one for the purpose IN
dicated. The sweat-shop system is one
of the pronounced brutalities Of modern
industrial life. The man who will find
fault with labor unions who reallzeS tue
vicious conditions which have been called
info existence in industrial life, such as
the sspluck-me" stores and the sweat
shops. is no better than defender OF the
dominion of greed and inhumanity IN
business relations. The objection when
might be advanced against the action or
the Consumers League, that it is after a
fashion a form of boycotting. will not
stand examination. Something is due to
the. purchasing public, as well as to the
producers; and, regarded from either
standpoint, the adoption of the Label
principle by the men and women engaged
in the humanitarian movement, as we'll as
by men and women engaged in produc-
tive toll. is one which operates to the
moral as well as the material gain of
humanity.
ANYTHING in social or commercial HE
which tends to suppress shams and 10
make deception and fraud more difficult
Is deserving of the sustainment OF So
ciety.

THE LABEL MOVEMENT.

One of the most remarkable of the
past among those engaged in manual
callings is what may be termed the label
movement. The principle of 1t seems to
have been generally adopted by labor
unions, and these is scarce such a body
now in the entire country which has not
a label, or some distinctive symbol or In,
production which bears it has been made
by member or members of the particu-
lar trades union. which is engaged in the
production of such commodities
The union label movement has met with
extraordinary success In every direction.
In the cigar trade it Is recognized as
possessing great commercial value. The
cigar box to which is attached q union
label is thus warranted to contain cigars
which have been made under proper san1-
tary conditions and, to some extent, as
representing in point of quality, and GER
tainly in point of workmanship, all that
can De Claimed LOT them. InlS is, even
If in lesser degree, true of the products
of the labor of men who are enrolled in
the other trades unions which are now
so potent factor in American Industrial
life.
The great principle of the label move
ment is to offer the consuming public
some given assurance that they are not
imposed on, and that at least In certain
specific directions certain conditions es-
sential to the comfort and safety and fair
treatment of the purchaser have been
realized in the manufacture of the ar
ticIe which he contemplates purchasing.
The label is in the nature of trade
mark, and is accepted for what 1t is

accomplished in history than his advance

Ronald Morrison, United States vice

state department with the following in
formation regarding mining in the Yukon
region and the various routes to Cape
Meme:
"The weather for the past month has
been comparatively mild, the thermometer
ranging from Is above to Is below. This
exceptional mildness at this season of the
year has interfered materially with the
working of claims, causing many mines
to suspend work on account of water
coming TN the shafts and drifts, and un-
less colder weather comes soon, the out
put of gold will fall far short of the
estimate which for this season has been
calculated at SIS. 0o6.000
srrhe Board of Trade has adopted a res
olution petitioning the Canadian govern
ment to extend the telegraph line to
Forty Mile. and intends to petition the
United States government to carry the
line to Eagle City, which will give a
service from Skagway. Alaska, to Eagle
City. Alaska. The benefits of this ex-
tension in regulating the movements of
steamers and from a commercial stand
point would be very great.
1.-THE Cape Nome excitement continues
unabated. Word recently received from
Skagway is to the effect that many are
making preparations to undertake the
journey of $500 miles over the ice, via

one of the most artistic pieces oi
sewer construction ever been done in

Gannett street. The order to lay the
sewer was passed some time ago ut the
meeting of the city government and
work was commenced on the sewer
according to the plan made by city
Engineer Gctchell for permanent
system Of sewerage. The sewer is $50
feet long Naturally with a sewer Of
that length it would be expected that
there would be slight curves, but even
though the pipe is but eight inches in
diameter it is possible to see from one
end to the other and by careful sight
