Dear Sir: Oct Is, 1900.
Il had been suffering severely from
kidney trouble. All symptoms were
on hand; my former strength and
power had left me; I could hardly
drag myself along. Even my mental
capacity was giving out, and often I
wished to die. 1t was then l saw an
advertisement of yours in a New
York paper, but would not have paid
any attention to it. had it not prom
ised sworn guarantee with every
bottle of your medicine, asserting
that your Swamp Root is purely veg
etable, and does not contain any
harmful drugs. I am 20 years and
months old. and with a good con-
science 1 can recommend Swamp
Root to all sufferers from kidney
troubles. Four mem bers of my family
have been using Swamp-Root for
four different kidney diseases, with
the same good results"
With many thanks to you, l remain,
very truly yours,
ROBERT BERNER.

LABOR LEGISLATION.
A Comparative Report by the Indus
trial COmmfHsiOn

trial Commission.
A comparative report upon labor Iegisla-
tion was issued today by the Industrial
commission. 1t shows that only as to a
few subjects does foreign legislation ex-
ceed In bulk and detail the legislation en-
acted by this country.
The most important subjects legislated
upon abroad, but not touched upon by this
government or its states and. territories,
are the state insurance system found In
some European countries and some of the
Australian colonies, but not as yet In
Great Britain. and the great guild system
or Germany, corresponding. in measure to
our state legislation respecting labor
unions, but establishing far more elab-
crate system.
In Germany guild legislation includes the
entire system of apprenticeship and affairs
manage In this country by mutual benefit,
mutual insurance, building and improve
ment, funeral, and other societies Legis-
lation on the continent Is more precise and
definite as to apprenticeship than In this
country or England. The tendency in the
United States has been to abolish appren-
tice laws entirely, or for such laws to fall
into disuse, the control and instruction OF
labor unions
Continental legislation also exceeds that
OF this country in factory acts, regulation
OF shops, hours of labor. sweat shops, en-
pioy yment. etc And. finally, there is an
elaborate system of arbitration or interfer-
ence by the state labor disputes found In
Its perfection in France and Belgium but
more or less, also. in other European coun-
tries as well as in the Australian colonies
+ No countries except the -UnHed-States
according to the report, have legislation
giving political protection to the laborer
This may be attributed to the European
custom Of leaving such matters to the sum-
mary and irresponsible action of the police
or military. There is an absence abroad
Of special legislation for certain classes,
like railway employees, of statutes against
combinations by employers or by employees:
against biackIistfng. strikes and boycotts.
Blackllsting. however. is impossible where
AS Is the case in some European coun.
trtes-every workman is furnished with ar
official passbook. in which the employer
must write the date and reason for the
discharge. SO s->-r -
