Departn1entLof LABOR
CONDUCTED BY B. W. BRUMLEY

A review of the work of the American Federation of Labor shows that the south has gained more recognition than ever before in its history.
 New Orleans was selected for the next meeting place. This is distinct victory for the south, and following after the resolution instructing the executive of ficers to carry out the plan adopted by the Louisville convention to appoint two staff organizers for the south and two for the west shows that the trades-union movement is to be actively pushed in the south as well as the north and east.
 D. U. Williams, who represented the Alabama State Federation of Labor, re- turned Thursday, and his report shows that much good for the south was ac- complished at the convention. The Ala bama delegates received signal recog- hilton in the convention, by appoint ments on committee work, and the stand made by c. c. Echard of Anniston on the color question. resulting in vote which solved the vexed problem most satisfactorily to all concerned.
 There were but two colored delegates at the. onvention-Delegates Clay, of Richmond, and Reid. of the Building Laborers' Union of Birmingham. They worked earnestly in the interest of the organization of their race, and the execu- tive officers will take up this important work at once

 President, J. N. Abbott vice president Pat Raymond: corresponding secretary, c. D. Wilson.
 Pat Cullman, president for the last term, will represent the union at the na- tional convention, which assemblies at Pittsburg January 13
 Incidentally, 1t Is generally understood that the briclIlayers will formally affiliate with the American Federation of Labor at this convention. They are now among the few unions that are not directly af- filiated, the plasterers and stonecutters being the others in the building lines. The tendency Is toward closer amalgamation,
 
 layers is a cheerful sign, as they are one of the strongest and most loyal unions to the cause there is. They believe in plenty of dues and plenty of fight when nothing but a fight will do. but they also believe in arbitration and coneiia- tion, and for this purpose keep a stand ing arbitration committee.
 The banquet of the musicians Thurs day night was one of the most enjoyable affairs that an organized labor body has given for many a day. It elicited speeches that were enjoyable. and brought the musicians and many guests closer to- gether, and all were better for the even ing spent at a board where there was most substantial and well served repast, and joy and good fellowship reigned All the speakers who answered toasts were most happy in their remarks particu- larly was this true of ". H. Stanley Leon Friedman and Capt F. P. OBrien. The talks were all good but these three were not in the "orchastra," but were instrumental in the evenings success. E The Birmingham Trades Council will meet this afternoon at 2;3O o'clock at Bricklayers Hall. It will be an impor- tant meeting, as it Is the last before the election of officers.

the officers of the federation is expected to be fruitful of good in the agitation that is being planned in Alabama and the other southern states, all of which have no laws that properly restrict the working of children in factories, mines and workshops, with the single excep- tion of Tennessee.
 In Alabama there Is law prohibiting children working in the mines. Where there is careful supervision this law is not violated, but I was standing on the track to an opening that boasts of one of the largest outputs of coal in the state and noticed three little fellows-that to say the least would have been best off in school-and were apparently em- ployed in violation of the law--emerge from the darkness, after nine hours hard and dangerous toll The breakers and the boys employed therein in the anthracite region are more than duplicated in the mines, workshops and factories of Ala bama- I have met boys in the mines who were prematurely old, and whose ser vices when figured out on dollar and cents basis did not pay for the oil in their lamps and the food they consumed. But they were there, and it Is to prevent this and the ten-times worse evil in the cot ton factories, by law that a campaign is being planned for the south.

the question of Jurisdiction between the Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners and the Amalgamated Association of Woodworkers The executive council was instructed to settle the question within ninety days. The Jurisdiction be- tween the Tailors and Garment Workers was determined. and the claim of the Customs Clothing Makers for represen- tation referred to the executive council. The delegate from this organization was not in the convention.
 An important amendment to the laws of the Federation was made, which re- quires all local unions to affiliate with State Federations where such exist This means much to Alabama. Dave Will Hams was instrumental in getting the amendment adopted, and he will begin to actively insist on the unions of Ala bama Federation of Labor through their national heads becoming affiliated with the Alabama State Federation of Labor.
