Regarding Coolie Labor and Its
Effect ON White Labor,

Organized labor of Duluth must act
at once on the Chinese question. It is
not sufficient that the Trades Assembly
do all the work. Every local union
should write to our representatives in
congress-. We reprint the following
article from the :Cigarmakers journal
for the benefit of our readers:
''The Geary Chinese exclusion act
that went into force May 1882 will ex-
pire by limitation May 1st. 1902. No
effort should be spared on the part
of our members and citizens generally
to have the provisions Of this act re-
adopted. No time should be lost and
every effort should be made from now
on until the act again becomes a law.
China has the largest population Of any
known nation and can supply and will
be glad to do So, this market with
enough laborers to effectually swamp
every trade in this country, and they
will do so unless the law is re-enacted
and put into force promptly. Do not
fancy that you are secure and. that
congress will act anyway. The rail-
roads and steamship companies have
been industriously working for some
time 10 prevent IHe Ie-enaCCHenI OF
the exclusion law, and their efforts
are being seconded by some manu-
facturers, who are short-sighted
enough to- think that the temporary
advantage of a congested labor market
will be to their profit. The willy Mon
golian is an apt learner and he can
do us an awful lot Of damage If allowed
to come in without; restriction. Aside
from the great danger. to the working
population of this country they are
menace to the morals of the entire peo-
pie. This question interests all true
Americans and no. effort should be
spared to arouse public sentiment in
favor Of the re-enactment of the Chi
nese exclusion act. Every union should
adopt resolutions favoring the exclusion
act and send copies to each Of your
senators and representatives in con-
gress. Each member is earnestly urged
to personally send q letter to his SEN
ator and representative in congress
urging him to work and vote for the re-
enactment Of the Chinese exclusion act.
We know OF no way to arouse.

MARRIAGE GETTING UNPOPULAR

Increasing Tendency Among Women
30 Remain in the Celibate State.
The increasing number of bachelor
girls or old maids one meets has
doubtless attracted the attention Of
the general public, as it has of those
whose duty 1t Is to keep track of
social statistics. Carroll ID. Wright,
the eminent statistician, has been in
vestigating the subject and finds that
of 1927 representative working.
women living In twenty-five cities 70
per cent of them being under % years
of age, 1887 were single women.
These figures are simply appalling. In
the good old times, 1t is claimed, one
half of these young women would al
ready have been married from three
to five years. The fact seems to be
that there is tendency to the post
poncment of marriage on the part Of
both sexes. In the case of women
this postpoiRment Is too often fatal
and in the case of men it gets to be
Il bad habit.
Several theories have been advanced
TO account IOF tIllS increasing uIlpOp-
ularity of marriage. The statement
that young men have become more
shy and embarrassed in the presence
Of the modern go-ahead girl may have
some truth In it. The present tendency
is undoubtedly to cultivate self-assur-
ance and Independence in young wom-
en- and to encourage them to become
self-suppOrting. Many avenues are open
to them; they can make n comfortable
living and enjoy life. Many woman,
In fact, can make better living for
one than the majority Of young men
can make for two with prospects Of
mOre). This situation tends to check
marriage in two ways-first, 1t makes
the women more Independent of men
and. therefore, In the second place
perhaps trifie less attractive to them.
Marriage Is an odd affair, anyhow. 1t
is largely psychical business at the
start. based upon delicate emotional
instinct, and all the logic and reason
Of a progressive age cannot alter that
fact. The pushing and businesslike
modern woman is not conducive to 1t.
