4 Test Case Started for the Enforce
ment Of the LAW.

4 Test Case Started for the Enforce
ment of the LAW
A test case Of unusual Importance to
the building trades in general-employ
es, owners and contractors-will pro-
badly soon be tried in Philadelphia.
Suit has been entered in the name OF
the Commonwealth against George X.
Kurrie, to recover $500 damages for
failure to cover over the floors of a
building under course Of construction,
and of which he is alleged to have
been in charge.
Many interesting points are involved,
the greatest Of which seems to be the
decision as to the jurisdiction in en-
forcing the Act of May II, 1893, which
was passed ostenibly for the protec-
ton Of workmen engaged upon build
ings under course of construction.
While this would appear to come with
in the province of the Bureau of Build
ing Inspection, it is stated that Chief
any power to act to committee re-
presenting the Council of Allied Build
ing Trades. Under these circum-
stances the Allied Council retained E.
Clinton Rhoads as attorney to take all
legal action necessary to determine the
value of the act in question.
In the present suit Mr.. kurrie Is
made defendant. The. complaint AYERS
that he is the engineer n charge Of the
erection of a new building on Cadwal-
ader street north Of Columbia avenue.
The labor world. [volume] (Duluth, Minn.) 1896-current, 1900-11-24

The act of May II. 1893. imposing upon
him the duty Of having the joists or
Orders of floors above the third story
covered with boards or other material
as the building progressed, so as to
sufficiently protect the workmen either
from falling through the joists or from
material falling from above. Defend
ant neglected this duty, the statement
continues, and allowed the fourth. fifth
sixth and seventh floors to remain un-
covered. The act provides for penalty
of 500 for each floor left uncovered
Secretary MITCHELL of the Council of
Allied Building Trades, said that
committee Of five had made an inspec-
ton which had brought about the in
formation on which suit was entered.
He said:
contracting builders seem to have
immunity from obeying this act. The
Bureau of Building Inspection refuses
to act and the supreme court has de-
cided that a builder is not liable for
damages further than the statutes de-
clares. This decision was rendered in
September, 1894, and states:
"'Under the act of May II. 1898.
"AACA ACAuACo pcAoOAS cuSd6cu Ill
building to cover the joists or Orders
Of each floor above the third story with
boards or other material so as to pro-
tect workmen and others. the money
penalty provided by the act is exclu-
sive Of all other remedies, and an act
ion for damages for personal injuries
cannot be sustained for failure to COM
ply with the provisions of the act In
that suit, William A. Stone, was coun-
sci for appellees.
Nov as Chief Hill has refused to
act, what protection has a workingman
under the supreme court decision? One
or several men may be killed or in
jured, and the families could recover
nothing. These facts being true, we
determined to make a test case to dis
cover who is responsible for the en-
forcement of the law. If the statute
is dead letter, we want to know 1t.
so that We can take proper steps to
secure a remedy in the coming lgesila-
| ture. At present it is cheaper for the
contractor to run the risk of being
| called upon to pay the penalty for
evading the law than it is to lay the
| rough boards required. We are seek
ing nothing but what the law is sup
posed to give us; that is protection for
lives and limbs of men compelled to
work for livelihood"

JUDICIAL INDICATION OF THE
CLAIMS Or LABOR.
Strike, to Refuse to Work with
Non-Vnion Men. to Picket and
BOycOtt-The Most Far Renchfnr
Decision Yet handed Down in
LabOr's Favor.

We bespeak attentive study for the
most radical, far-reaching and enlight-
ened decisions ever rendered in the
United States by a high court in a Ia
Dor case. 1t furnishes complete VIM
dication of the position of organized
labor. It sweeps aside all antiquated
notions, SO dear TO the judicial fossils
and the plutocratic enemies of the
trade union movement, and invokes
modern, rational, progressive princi-
pies. 1t sustains the view expressed in
the American Federationist in combat
ing the fallacious and half-truths. Of
the o-individualistic press which
has denounced the methods of unions
as tyrannincal and un-American.
Briefly, what does organized labor
claim?
1. The right to organize local, cen
trail and national unions, and federate
all.
?. The right to strike, as a means of
enforcing recognition for unions and
the principle Of "Collective bargaining
3. The right to refuse to work with
nOn-union men.
I. The right to picket establishments
involved in a strike, and to employ
moral suasion to prevent men from
taking strikers places.
S. The right to boycott, individually
and collectively, obnoxious employers,
and other adversaries of labor, and to
induce all friends Of unionism to Join
in such boycott.
Astonishing as it may seem, the de-
cision referred to emphatically uphold
each Of these claims. It was rendered
recently by the appellate division Of
the New York Supreme Court, a body
Of five judges, and it was unanimous
There Is, therefore strong reason for
hoping that the Court Of Appeals, the
highest tribunal In the state. will af-
firm and indorse this remarka BILE judy
ment. The labor question, on. it's legal
side. would then be settled in New
York. and settled right. That other
states would gradually adopt the same
reasonable and just policy. there can
be no doubt. The logic Of the New
! York decision Is irresistible.
! The question presented to the~court
was this: Has an association Of work
ingmen, organized for. se'f-protection,
and self help, right to obtain the dis
charge of one man or any number of
men 'by threats, intimidation, Strikes
or otherwise?" In other Words, is 1t
lawful for union to go to- an employ
er and warn him, If he engages certain
men, or retain men already in his en-
ploy, strike will be ordered by a COM
bination of other men in his employ?
Overriding an inferior tribunal, the APP
>pellate division of the supreme court
has answered the vital question in the

and to put your side of the case.
They are here to teach the workers how
their Lot. in life is to be made better
and to lead the way. They are here to
fight for the unions and to help the
labor party to get labor reforms, and
to avail themselves generally OF every
opportunity of furthering the labor
cause. You won't get sympathy from
the other papers in your efforts to bet
ter your lot. You ought to know that
by this time. You have only the labor
papers TO depend on, and if you don't
stick to them and make them strong
enough to stand by you, you won't i'm
prove your present condition at all.
Therefore, il you want to help along
the better times. subscribe for your
labor paper, get others TO do the same;
put your name on the roll, keep it there
and plank it straight for labor every
time. But above all things get into a
union. by hook or by crook. Otherwise
there is no mortal help for you.

Join the union! Do you want to
Nelp your mates along? Join the
union! The monopolistic press and the
monopolist may tell you that such de-
sires are vicious, but instead, it is
need of things necessary and good that
makes men vicious. Where wages are
highest there will be found the most
prosperous and the most contented
people. There will education be the
most generally tiiffused. There will
morality be the purest; there will pa

equal rights-is the sphere of.the rela-l
tons between laborers and capitalists.
A@little reflection will show that the
boycott is entirely justified in the light
Of. the same guiding principles. There
IS no question that one man may, for
any reason, withdraw his patronage
from any person or~any number of per-
sons. He does not lose his right on
joining an organizations; hence any as
ISOLATION of men may collectively order
and maintain a boycott. Indeed, ex-
anime any of the above enumerated
claims of organized labor, and it is
plainly seen to be valid and proper, if
the New York Judgment be accepted
as we'll founded.
OF course, all that labor demands for
itself it is willing to grant in equal
measure to others. 1t does not oppose
cOmbinati ton among employers. 1t does
not depend on legislation. 1t asks no
special privileges, no favors from the
state. Wants to be let alone and to be
allowed to exercise it's rights and use
it's great economic power. Workmen
must rely on their own strength, the
strength resulting from mutualism and
organization. They must make it eco
nomically impossible for employers to
antagonize unions. They must be too
powerful, too fit to be successfully
fought and oppressed. In fine. organ
lied labor must depend on it's own
worth and superiority for continued
progress.
Under equality of rights and liberty,
the trade union movement is bound to
survive and triumph, and we therefore
welcome the New York decision, the
most comprehensive of it's kind, be-
cause it emphasizes the thorough legi-
timacy of the labor movement in it's
present stage Of development.-Amer

ten, one by Justice Mclaughlin,

ten one by Justice Mclaughlin, the
other by Justice Ingraham,> distingu-
ished experienced iurists both.
Justice Mclaughlin reasons as fol-
lows: 1t cannot be seriously doubted
that every Workingman has the right,
in the first instance, to say for whom
and with whom he will work, and an
employer, of course has the correlative
right Of saying whom he. will employ
or prefer among two or more rivals.
Once this reciprocal right is destroyed
liberty is destroyed, giving place to in
dustrial despotism. Now. if one has
the right alleged, when acting, in his
individual capacity, he does not, lose it
when acting with others clothed with
an equal right. Consequently, laborers
may combine and say they will not
work for employers who engage any
but members of labor organizations,
and employers may combine and say
that they will not employ persons who
are Tor who are not, as the case may
be) members of such organizations. 1t
is true that. as a result Ola conabina-
ton Of labOrers certain men may lose
employment, but that is an incident of
industrial liberty and competition. :
The fact that organizations cause in
jury to certain persons does not make
their purposes or actions illegal. In
the words of the supplementary, opin-
ion Of Justice Ingraham, 1T is the
illegality Of the purpose to- be. accom-
plished, or of the means used to ac->
cOmplish that purpose, that makes a
combination Illegal" The purposes of
trade unions are admittedly lawful,
and such methods as strikes and
threats of striking are not in them
selves unlawful, since every man has
the right to quit work for any reason
and at any time and this right is not
lost when he enters into combina-
ton to exercise it. Hence 1t is not un-
lawful for union to demand and pro-
cure exclusive employment. or the dis
charge of obnoxious Workmen, by
threats of striking or actually striking.
The principal thatwhat ever is lawful
when done by one person is; lawful
when done by combination of several,
seems. almost automatic, yet it has
been tacitly and openly denied in near
ly every labor case previous to that
under discussion. That was due to the
persistence of old common law notions
of 'conspiracy''-nation utterly map
plicable to modern conditions. In this
age of cooperation and consolidation
it is futile and absurd 60 employ OBJ
