Iowa.s Labor Commissioner.

Charles F. Wennerstrum, labor COM
missioner of the state of Iowa, has
earned a capital reputation and made
an enviable record in that Office since
his first appointment by Gov. Shaw.
In his farewell message to the Iowa
legislature, Gov. Shaw commended in
the most favorable terms Mr.. Wenner-
strum's work in the labor bureau, es-
pecislly that with relation to factory
and workshop regulation. Acting on
the recommendation made by Commis-
sioner Wennerstrum, the governor
urged the legislature to clothe the
labor bureau with ample powers to
scope with the child labor question,
particularly, and to protect employees
from inadequate heat and dangerous
machinery, the provision of fire es-
capes and wholesome sanitary condi-
tons. Needed provisions for the in
spection OF nearly $4,000 factories in
the state, employing 10000 persons,
were also urged.

St. Loui, Is Overcrow ded b.

Secretary Steinbess of the National
Building Trades council, whose head
quarters are at st. Louis, Mo-, has is
sued an open letter replying to inquir-
les from all over the country regard
ing contracts let for the fair building.
He says: "All building craftsmen
should take a common sense view of
the situation and not stake their
chances on the time-worn saying,
There is always room for one more.
The two building contracts now
awarded embody less than $1,000, 900
and all branches of the trade are over
run with men who are now here and
unable to pay board. The room for one
more can only be made by showing
out one of those now employed. These
are the facts in the case, and sensible
men will stay away. The foolhardy
will help to swell the flock of those
who are constantly arriving-and
making matters worse by their coming
for the army already here"

New York Labor statistics.

The last report of the New York
bureau of labor statistics is of special
interest to wage-earners. Although 1t
applies only to organized labor, its fig
ures deal with 5000 working people
and nearly all the manufacturing and
mechanical industries. Hence condi-
tions reported must be considered as
fairly representative. In 1894 the
number of labor unions in New York
reporting to the bureau was $50. In
1901 the number was 1881. In the
same period the membership increased
from 157,197 to 276,141 or rs per cent.
In 1897 only 81 per cent of the mem
bers of labor organizations in New
York were women. In 1901 the pro-
portion has arisen to 5.3 per cent. All
but two of the groups of trades at
tanned their highest growth in 1901.
In the tobacco trades, however, the
1901 membership was smaller than
that of 1900. In the clothing trades
the maximum was passed in 1895.
The largest group of organized work
men is that of the building trades. In
this group are 81 per cent of all trade
unionists in New York state.

result Of tho telephoning. telegraphing
and conlerring of the magnates for
several days Peace has been made GER

LOOK OUT FOR GERMANY.
That Country Is Foremost in Adopt-
ing Lsbor-Saviug Machines.

Ing Labor-Saviug Machines.
One is at once impressed with the
fact that the Germans have been
quicker than other nations to take
advantage of improved machinery and
methods. An inspection of our ex-
ports to Germany in the last half
iozen years shows an extremely salts
factory increase in our sales of manu-
factured goods. but an analysis of the
character of hose manufactures
brings out the fact that a. large part
has been in labor-saving machines,
whose economies have at once been
turned against us.
There are some shops IN Germany
that are quite as admirably fitted with
modern machinery as would be cor
responding shops with us, says Frank
A. Vanderlip in Scribner's, and with
such superior equipment and with
labor costing little if any more than
half what our labor is paid, the Ger
man manufacturer will make us look
to our laurels.

Hard to Organize Hired GirIs.l

One reason advanced by unionists
for the failure to organize a successful
servant girls union in Minneapolis is
that many of the girls will not attend
meetings, as they are ashamed to have
people know that they are hired girls
Another is that shrewd mistresses
tell their hired girls that unions are
not attended by respectable girls.
