FRESH AIR PLEASURE
THE GOOD TINES THE FRESH AIR chill
DREN HAVE IN THE COUNTRY.

The children who go to the country under the
auspices of the Tribune Fresh Air Fund have lots
of fun in the of their two weeks outings
Their hosts make special efforts TO give them
good time They made the guests of honor at
annual lawn parties; they are taken on special
outings: in every way the two weeks trip OF the
children is made memorable. At Happy Land. the

the occasion of a jollihcation Usually the ami
versary of the birth OF child in each party
falls within the two weeks OF the outing
After the first celebration this year 1T was de-
cided to celebrate with regular party only the
birthday anniversary first reached after the arrival
of q partv because it seemed probable that If some
limit were not set it would be found that all the
children's birthdays fell within the two weeks oI
their vacation. After the arrival of recent IN
staIment of Happy Landers" there were mysteri-
Gus whisperiugs about "Lotties birthday. Find
ing that 1t was a bona fde one IT was decided 10
celebrate It in a fitting manner On her birthday
the seat of honor at the table was given to the
child, and she found a package ana ouhch Oh
flowers beside her plate. The weather being warm
the celebration proper delayed until evening
After 3 o'clock supper the children climbed
over the fence which divided the home yard from
a large open field belonging to Mrs Lyle large
ring was formed by the children in the held ana a
member of the party read some original verses AT
the same time placing a wreath of wild carrots on
bouuu.t Of wild flowers The mistress Of the cere-
monies then talked about the birthCay, ana eA-

FUNDAMENTALLY FALSE.

Ii might be unreasonable TO expect even the
most honest labor leader to adhere with rigid
accuracy to the facts when engaged in the act
of prOclaiming a strike and summoning MS
forces into action. 1t is in the nature Of IA call
To arms 10 he rhetorical But Mr.. Shaf1er
strays somewhat further from the plain truth
than a man who was formerly minister or
the Gospel and who has begged the public to
accredt him with a profoundly solemn sense OF
his responsibility ought 10 stray.
Mr. Shaffer SAYS: The officials of the United
States steel Company have refused to recOg-
''nize as union men those who are now striving
for the right to organize" The fact is that
the company has refused to adopt course
which at various points would put majority
of non-union men in virtual suhiectiOn 10 a
minority of union men.
Mr. Shaffer says: we must fight or give up
forever our personal liberties" That is a pre-
else reversal of the fact. The company neither
violates nor threatens any mans personal lib
ertv. whereas the Amalgamated Association
seeks to deprive men who are not members of
liberty 10 refrain from joining if they please
and still work on terms satisfactory To them
selves.
Mr. Shafler says 1t is n fight for labor
rights" The fact is that 1t is fight for what
4 fraction of labor" in n single branch of
industry conceives to he for its advantage; or
mt least for what its leaders would have it con-
ceive To be for its advantage.
We have quoted the fundamental points in
Mr. Shaffer's proclamation. and they are funda-
mentally false.

and Japan being the next largest traders with
China have naturally taken the same ground as
Great Britain. though they have not held it so
resOIutely as 10 threaten defeat of the proto-

The point Is further emphasized by the fact
that while Russia is demanding an enormous
indemnity largely sheer 'smart money, Great
Britain. Japan and the United States are asking
very small inde nnities, with no hint of smart
money about them. The Russian proposal
therefore, TO which Great Britain objects Is
tantamomt 10 demand that the countries
which are getting the smallest indemnities shall
be specially taxed 10 pay the indemnities OF
those which are getting the largest. That IS
most extraordinary proposition, which Oh
grounds of simple equity ought never TO prevail
1t is of course, highly desirable that an agree
ment shall he reached and signed IT the earliest
possible date. But il ought 10 he practicable 10
do that without working manifest injustice to
several of the nations. The Chinese Empire
contains so many sources of revenue, if only
they were properly administered. apart from
the customs that it seems foolish to meddle
with the latter. and thus to check even To Il
small degree that intercourse with the outer
world which is the foremost means of civilizlnG
and cnli=htcning the empire.

4 recent explosion In Paterson which was
destructive of life and property has been fol
lowed by a similar calamity in Philadelphia
which caused a number of deathsiand the col
lapse OF several buildings. In each disaster the
proofs are overwhelming that cupable negli-

about the ruin. Exemplary punishment should
be meted out 10 the offenders whose reckless
defiance of the statutes the cause Of such
horrors. But is it certain that the men who so
richly deserve long terms of Imprisonment will
pay the penalty Of their misdeedsI 1t may be
that Jersey Justice Will be innexible, prompt

Peru's exports usually exceed her imports, how
ever. by from 80 to 40 per cent.
The increase of trade between Peru and the
United States is worthy of especial notice. y
dozen wears ago the United States stood NTH
on the list being surpassed in the order named
by Great Brtain. Germany. France and China.
Four years ago this country lad made IT'S way
up TO third place with only Great Britain and
Germany ahead, though they very far
ahead Last year in PeTu'S export trade the
United States had second place and Germany fell
to fourth the third being taken by Chilli More
over. the United States was making fine prog
ress toward catching up with Great Britain In
1897 Peru's exports to the United States were
only 3 per cent of those to Great Britain. and
in 1900 they were ~ pcr cent. At that rate II
will not take the United States long to catch up
with its only rival and take first place. as II
should do.
Peru is one Of the very few South American
countries to which we have generally sold more
than we have bought from it. Last year the
rule was changed, and our imports from Peru
considerably exceeded our exports to her In
this individual case that is not 10 be regarded
as matter of great regret. 1t is only fair that
there should he IL tuln about 10 make the gen
eraI balance more nearly even. But the great
increase of Peru's exports will undoubtedly in
duce comparable increase of her imports and
in the latter the United States ought to share
to the largest degree.

Peru has been regarded hy some rs almost a

cases a commendable and benefcent course In
this particular ease it has led to results of the

There has for years been n pretty steady
though not sensatiOnally rapid growth of
Peruvian foreign commerce. Such. rather was
the fact down to last year. Then there came a
great increase. amounting IN exports to no less
than 464 per cent over the preceding wear
Taking into account only trade on the Pacific
Coast, the increase i'm exports was from S14-
932. .7!2 in 1899 to S21 .S60.27S in 1900 This was
i'm part due To changes in the Peruvian fiscal
articles was greaty-perhaps artIfcalIy-stimu-

in all important articles Of export, a fact indi-
eating the operation of general and. we may
hope lasting influences. Exact figures of inn

a comparable increase in them, also.
