Legal Department For Labor.

Clarence S. barrow suggests in the
interest of labor the formation of some
kind of central law department., de-
partment which will be able to cope
with any law department in the coun-
try and successfully fight the growing
injunctions and the damage cases. MIR.
Darrows idea goes further than this,
for he believes that with this law de-
partment should be associated some
kind Of central representative trade
union bureau to keep strict account of
every vacancy made upon the federal
bench. Of every application for injunc-
ton, Of every movement made in the
courts on the part Of the corporations,
Of whenever any Judge is to be elected
in any state Of the Union and when
ever any Judge is to be appointed in
any district in the United States. -.

The Cause Of Humanity.

Laws are not made for the great cor
porations. What gain for the entire
world if all dehumanized men should
get out! We have means enough; we
can do without capitalists who come
among us and live on the blood of hui
man beings. The cause of labor if
rightly understood is the cause Of hu-
mainly. What labor desires first of all
is not charity, but justice.
We Americans are using up too rap
idly the resources of nature, and we
are using up too rapidly human lives.
One of the greatest fallacies Of the age
is that money is equivalent to human
lives. The spirit of commercialism is
sinking deeper and deeper into u.s..
Whatever a man sets his heart on
must increase or it ceases to satisfy
him. What we need in America is a
realization Of spiritual ideas and the
realization that the best things in life
are not procured by money.-Bishop
Spalding.

Springfield Republican: The Unit
ed States government is operating q
street railway system in Chicago, and
is exhibiting no lack of enterprise and
efficiency in doing so. The Union
traction company is in the hand of
receivers. under direction Of United
States court, and Judge Grosscup of
the court is giving personal attention
to tn Q matter. He has instructed the
receivers and general managers to
improve the service by putting every
available car in operation during the
rush hours of the morning and even

that b long been popular COM
plant against..the road. He has also
ordered all free passes cut off except
to policemen on duty, an order which
affects the city aldermen specially.
Changes have further been oroered
that will reduce expenses SO, GOO a
year. and the judge is contemplating
an abandonment of cable power for
underground electric. which is CAL
culated furher to reduce the cost of
operation. It looks as If the COVER

Old Men and the Unions.

Employers Of skilled labor in all its
branches are inclined to take the view
that the problem of what to do with
the aged employees is up to the unions.
They say that some remedy should be
suggested and acted upon at once,
That there are many men who are still
able to do first class work, but who on
account of age or for other reasons are
not able to perform the amount of la
Dor that is expected from the ordinary
workman and who are in consequence
driven to seek odd jobs and other
branches Of employment that are not
80 remunerative, is recognized fact
among those who employ large bodies
Of workmen.-Chicago News.

4 Labor Incident Of Japan Told ~
@>@-~ Native Socialist Editor.
s. ]. Katayama, editor Of the Social
list, Tokyo. Japan, relates this thrilling
incident: >s.is@%.y @s ! >.,aa
A bloody human hand cruelty cut off
was received by Baron. Shibusawa
through the express. The old baron,
being struck down by this extraordi-
nary present, sent for police at once to
look after this outrageous disrespect to
the august baron.
Was it joke? If it was joke, then
it must be an awful joke! But why
was such a deed? What was the cause
of this? Whose hand was it?
=
There is shipbuilding factory right
across the river Smida not very far
from the palace of the old baron. The
same is owned by the baron, of course,
and earns many hard dollars through
the year by the work of 800 or 900 toll
ers. With the very rich booty of the
exploitation in this factory the baron
has just completed his famous trip
round the world and must have made
himself a good impression on the Euro
pean money kings and common mag
mates!
Now, it happened that on the 18th
ult. a blacksmith's right hand was
crushed by steam hammer weighing
a ton and half. The handle of the
hammer was directed by an old man
aged sixtytwo! A young man Of twen-
ty-fve is now lying in hospital. A
sad fate of irony fell on this young
blacksmith, and his right hand was cut
off! Workingmen Of the factory con-
tributed a sum of $50 yen or there
about to this ill fated man. But the
factory gave him not copper. There
was no provision for accidents that
occurred during ones employment by
the company.
This hand W9s sent TO- the baron to
arouse the right feeling On the part
Of the baron toward his employees
whose blood he has been sucking so
AAdAJ yOoAS. VIC ACdA AlOuu q IClAdO1C
source that the old baron was some
what moved by this hand and consid-
ering to do something for his employee.
We hope he will. He is said to be di
rector of over fifty companies and
those employ many thousands of work
ers and are suffering from cruel op-
pressions and hardship without any
protection at all. There are 1000 or
5000 spinning girls in the city under
the baron's supervision. These girls
are suffering tuberculosis on account
of bad ventilation and improper food
with excessively hard work.
If there was in each factory a spir-
tied worker like that one the old baron
might receive a flesh hand or head al
most every day!
The baron ought to look into the
matter.

WEIs PUT OUT OF POST OFFICE
Says He Collected Only a Legislative Fund
for =. d. Clerks.

By direction of Postmaster General
Payne, Postmaster Van Colt summarily
dismissed Yesterday Otto Weis, Assistant
Superintendent of the Registry Division.
Post master General Payne's letter, dated
Oct. q and received yesterday morning,
reads:
You are hereby directed to remove Otto
Weis, a clerk in the New York Post Office
IL having developed in the course of the
investigations in the Post ONCE Department
that he has collected money from clerks to
influence legislation and to secure the pro-
motion of clerks so contributing.
II. C.. PAYNE.
Weis was accused last winter Of acting
as collector for the promotion syndicate. '
The syndicate, it is alleged, obliged nearly
every postal clerk to pay from SIS to $50,
according to his salary. and promised him
promotion. Weis at that time denied the
charges and nothing was done until yester-
day. Postmaster Van Colt said yester-
day:
al have no means of knowing whether
OF not Wes was connected with the So
called promotion syndicate. When asked
him something about it last winter he fatty
denied It,.
Weis still denied yesterday that he col
lected money for unlawful purposes. As an
officer Of the National Postal Clerks Asso-
citation he admits that he collected money
which members of that association con-
tributed to send clerks to Washington
to visit members Of Congress and to put
the case Of the postal clerks before them
By this means the postal clerks had a num-
Der OF bills passed which gave them kind
of rough classification, increase of salary
and annla! vacations.
Weis lives at cas- East l55th street with
his family.
