ADVERTISING THE LABEL.

The United Garment Workers Of
America have decided to spend $1,000 in
advertising in the leading magazines
showing by illustrated "inserts'' cloth
ing bearing the Union label as q trade
mark of fair and sanitary production.
One hundred and fifty eight wholesale
firms in the United States now use
this guarantee against sweat-shop
goods. The union label is not granted
to a manufacturer unless he makes
his stock on the premises and does not
give out any Of 1t to contractors who
may take it to sweat-shop dens. These
firms employ $4,000 men and women
garment workers, who are assured Of
living wages and reasonable hours Of
toll so long as their employers use the
union label. Union men and their SYM
pathizers should see that every suit
Of clothes or overcoat they buy bears
the trademark of having been union
made.

ENGINEER SLEPT.

Worked Long Hours and Could Not
Remain Awake.
Here is another argument for the
shorter work day. An engineer is held
responsible for an accident, because
he could not remain awake after tl1ir-

pany should learn lesson from this,
and work it's men shorter hours for
economics sake. The following is the
press report:

At the end of the Eighteenth century,
Adam Smith, famous economist, said
that 1.-The only traoo' which it seems
possible for a joint stock company to
carry on successfully without an ex-
elusive privilege, are such as the bank

today one sees how progress overleaps
all limitations. The Utopia of today is

ARE FORGOTTEN.
Names of Sch1ey Inquiry Commission
Not known.

"Quick, now! Can you recall the
names Of the two admirals who sat
with Dewey on the Schley court of in
quiry?" The above question appeared
in the last issue of The Star, and it is
safe to state that nine out Of ten could
not answer it. When the court Of in
quiry was in session the American peo-
pie looked neither to the right nor to
the left, but straight at the central fig
ure. In him they placed their hopes for
justice, and they were not disappoint-
ed, for Admiral George Dewey scored
victory over the naval cabal. The
other two admirals ought to thank their
stars that their names have been for
gotten by the American people.-San

Miss Jennie z. Smith, the writer of
the following article, returned about
six weeks ago from a five months So
journ in the Hawaiian islands, where
she went to visit her brother, Mr..
Jared G. Smith, who is in charge of the
United States experiment stations in
the islands. She had unusually good
opportunities to see places Of interest
and study the conditions there. The ac-
companying illustrations are from pho
tographs selected from the fine collec-
tion secured by Miss Smith. She re-
sides at 1908 South Sixteenth street.
Her article, prepared expressly for the
Courier, follows:
The occasion of my recent trip to
Hawaii. was to visit my brother Jared
G. Smith and family. Mr.. Smith,
former Lincoln boy, is now special
agent in charge of the Hawaii expert
ment station. The ground set apart
for experimental purposes is near the
city of Honolulu, extending some two
miles up on the mountain and very
poorly located for the purposes for
which it has been reserved.
Mr.. Smith, as the pioneer in this
work, had much to discourage him in
his efforts to carry out his instructions
from the department of agriculture
The political parties of the islands did
not take kindly to the federal officials,
but as the work of the station has
progressed, the sentiment seems to
have changed, and his work has been
gradually becoming more pleasant
Mr.. Smith is director of work in all
of the islands, though the residence
and station proper are on the island
of Oahu near Honolulu.
There are eight islands in the group.
The four largest in order of their size
are Hawaii, Maui, Oahu, Kauai. Oahu
is forty-six miles long and twenty-five
miles wide. Hawaii is ninety miles
long and seventy miles wide.
1.-THE islands are of volcanic forma-
tior, and the heat has progressed from
northwest to southeast, the active vol
cano of Kilauea now being in the
island-the island of Hawaii. In Puma
district in the southeast corner of the
island there is a hot spring within a
mile of the ocean. On the island of
Maui is Haleakala, the largest extinct
crater in the world.
II am indebted to Mr. Smith for the
following remarks on the labor situa-
ton in the islands:
with a population Of over $4,000,
the white population of Hawaii
amounts to less than twenty per cent
of the total, and over half of this num-
ber are Portuguese. About seven per
cent of the people of Hawaii, /. e., the
American, English and German con-
tingent, own and control the sugar
plantations, the business, and the pro-
fessiOns of the islands. There are
about 10000 Hawaiians, $4,000 Chinese.

of part -Hawaiians. Porto Ricans, ne
groes, South Sea islanders, and various
other races and mixtures. The vast
majority of the population has been
brought in by the sugar planters to
supply labor on the plantations.
:. The planters and the business men
of the islands. the leaders of trade and
captains of industry, are as wide
awake and enterprising and i'm every
way as up-tO-date as any similar body
of men in any part of the United
States or the world. But we must not
forget that although in power, wealth.

in numbers a very small minority. The
conditions in Hawaii to some extent
resemble those of portions of the
fifths of the alien laboring class, i'm
ported by the planters to work on the
plantations, really work there now.
The Chinese and japanese have
invaded every field of business. They
are merchants. tailors, mechanics.
blacksmiths, painters, carpenters, gar
deners, cooks, yard and house SER
wants, laundry-men. hack drivers, in
word they leave the severe manual
tasks in the cane field and mill. when
ever they can make a living at any
thing else. They have displaced the
white mechanic and laborer. and to a
large extent the native Hawaiian.
Chinese are the rice and taro grow
ers. they raise most of the poultry and
all of the vegetables of the islands.
The Japanese have ousted the Hawaii
ans from the fishing business. In every
way the labor situation is an anoma-
lous one for an American territory.

have had merchants tell me after had
ordered things out of town. that they
had exactly the same things in stock
for the same money. They blamed me
for sending away for the goods, Il blamed
them for not telling meaboutthe goods
for not letting me know they had them
and letting me know the price. 1t
would have saved me the trouble OF
writing for my goods and the cost OF
exchange, but how was to know that
they had them when they were laid
away on the back shelves and the mer.
chant as dumb as the sphinx concern
ing them. 1t is fact that some of the
businesshouses in the towns where the
papers which I take are published do
not advertise at ALL ! have been in
their stores and some of them are just
as have described, and believe that
such have no more right to expect a
living to be given them by the people
of his community, simply because he
exists and pays as little taxes as he is
obliged to, than has the tramp who
goes to the back door and begs hand
out. The only difference between these
people is the amount OF taxes they pay,
and sometimes this is not very much.
What I wish to say to the Review
and its readers is that I believe that
the farmers of this and every other
right minded community are ready and
willing to trade with their home mer-
chant and to give them the pref
erence if the home merchant will only
do his part. If he will let them know
what he has for sale, not in general
terms, but describing the articles. if he
will keep his store attractive and neat
and if he will be one half as enterpris
ing as are the mail order houses of
Chicago he will get the trade of the
people. Until this is done am tired
of hearing the farmer abused because
he sends his money away from home.
The farmer sends his money away from
town and too many merchants simply
hold up their hands in protest without
Offering any CONGRATULATIONS, and
do the same things themselves on the
side. People would prefer to see what
they are buying rather than buy from
a catalogue. They would prefer to
deal with men who can be relied upon
to make goods right if they are not as
represented.
