SIGNS OF GOOD
Times AMONGST
UNION WORKERS

WASHINGTON, ID. c., Jan. l4.-Re-
ports to the. American Federation of In
Dor from it's officers in all parts Of the
country give line on industrial conditions
at the beginning of the new year.
a great mass of correspondence has been
gathered and an analysis of it all shows
that, whatever fears there may be OF com
ing depression in business, the wage earn
er, generally speaking, has not commenced
to experience hard times.
1t is true that no reports are published
from the iron and steel industry, in which
it is said heavy cuts have been made with
in month. But in other lines of labor,
with hardly an exception, word comes that
work is good and that wages are BETTER if
anything, than ever.
A feature of the reports is the showing
that strikes are few, considering the num-
Der of unions and crafts. Statements have
arrived from every state in the union, and
the tenor of the whole is more optimistic
than might be expected after reading re-
cent newspaper accounts Of shut-downs,
reduced wages and strikes.
OF the labor contests fought out last
year, it would appear that the unions had
been successful in a large majority OF
cases. As an exhibit of the union idea Of
a favorable strike record, the cigarmakers
report is taken. The total number Of
ullhcuiileh was no, lnNOlN.HR n lobdl Oh
1927 men. Only five were absolutely lost,
involving 50; thus nearly 5000 benefited.
A line on future prospects: The cloth
hat and cap makers have already settled
their scale with the manufacturers for the
spring trade. Increased wages were grant
ed without days cessation Of work for
argument.
The glassblowers say their industry was
never so prosperous, and the prospects for
the year are very bright But theirs is the
common report.
Unions generally thrive in good times,
and another feature OF the report is that
the unions of nearly every craft appear to
be flourishing-in fact growing rapidly in
many cases.
Unionism is evidently taking strong
root in the South Alabama has organized
central body The Central Labor Coun-
Gil of Florida has succeeded in pushing
through a nine-hour day in that state.
In Georgia there was bard contest for
the nine-hour day but the workers won.
Sawmill workers, shoemakers, shipwrights
and callSers Of Georgia are organizing.
Unionism is growing in Kentucky, Louis
lana and Mississippi In Texas and Ten
nessee there is very strong demand for
union labor.

FORCED TO
TAKE CHANGES

theories and rumors as to the proba-
bic cause of the Clallam disaster are
flying thick and fast these DAYS.
The report that Captain Roberts forced
his boat after she began taking water.
and thereby precipitated the disaster.
when, by taking it easy, he might have
Drought her to port, has been discussed
by steamboat men from one end of the
Sound to the other. and the opinions. of
course, differ greatly. Whether that was
the case or not. it brings up new phase
OF the question, not only in regard to
the Clallam, but in connection with every
other steamer on the Sound
John 4. Barr, a well known vessel man
ana smpbullder, in speaking of the mat
Ter last nlght, made some statements that
VIII MAKE interesting reading in connec-
ton with the terrible disaster. Mr.. Barr
told The lines that steamboat captains
should not always be blamed for taking
the chances they did. In a great many
cases the agents or owners of a vessel will
compel the captain to make trips in
stormy weather and take chances with a
boat when, if the matter was left to their
own judgment, they would not attempt to
take the boat out.
"On regular run like that of CAPTAIN
Roberts, said Mr.. Barr, "the captain of a
vessel knows that the holding of his DO
sition depends on making the trips on
schedule time, regardless of the risks he
runs. If Captain Roberts had put back
into port with the Clalam. instead of
trying to put her through, the probabili-
ties are that he might have lost his posi-
ton. He would have been called weak
kneed and white-livered, people would
have said he had no nerve, and other
steamboat men would have laughed at him
and called him coward
Instead of being coward, however, he
would have been a brave man. | tell
you, it takes a brave man to do what he
knows is right in the face of ridicule.
Any man can make foolhardy at
tempt to force a vessel across a danger
Gus passage, and if he succeeds people call
him brave and nervy. But | want to tell
you, and | hope YOU will publish it far
and wide, that the bravest man is the
one who would put his vessel back and
not take chances with the lives in his
care, even in the face of ridicule and the
possible loss of his position.
Nobody knows better than the cap
tain just how much a vessel will stand,
but he is prevented many times from ex-
ercising his judgment. The people who
are directly responsible for many of the
terrible marine disasters are the owners
and agents of vessels. who compel the
boats officers to take undue risks. and it
is upon them that the blame should fall.
"The report that Captain Roberts
forced his boat may or may not be true.
Many a man who has that reputation and
takes pride in it is most careful navi-
gator"

STOCKHOLM.-Last wear the whole
north of Sweden was in the throes Of fam
inc. Relief sent from all over the world
checked its ravages, but nothing can check
or ameliorate the desolate conditions which
make misery part of life in these regions
and starvation its only episode.
The latitude of northern Sweden is that

like them would be an eternal abode of

the coast of Norway. But so far north as
this the Gulf stream is not as warm az
it might be and the Norwegian mountains

Therefore winter fingers through the
spring and into the lap of summer and
often the frosts come again by the eno

Fortunately the almost perpet nj day

always most acute. Nature has come to
his aid by changing the nature of his

HAWAIIAN TERRITORY IS BOOMING
NATIVE POPULATION DECREASING

WASHINGTON, Jan. l3.-Some inter
esting facts about present conditions in
Hawaii are presented by the department
OF commerce and labor through its bureau
of statistics. These facts have Just arrived
from Hawaii.
Regarding population, the figures show
steady decrease in the number of natives
and steady increase in the number OF
persons of foreign birth, especially Japan
csc and Chinese. In 1872 the number of
natives was, in round terms, $4,000 and
in 1900, 10000 In 1872 the number of
Chinese was, in round terms, 1000 and in
1900 $4,000.
The record of japanese among the pop
ulation only begins with 1884, when the
number was ll6 persons, but in 1900 the
number was over 81 900. The total popula-
ton of 1872 is given at 56,S97 and in 1900
at l54 00l. The relation of nationality to
plantation labor is indicated by a table
which shows the nationality and number
of sugar plantation laborers, the number OF
japanese being 81 029 out of a total of all
nationalities Of 1922.
Sugar, of course, continues to be the
principal crop of Hawaii, though number
of other tropical products are now receiv-
ing careful attention, including coffee, to-
baeco, sisal fiber manila hemp, vanilla
beans, and pineapples. The experiments
with sisal grass, begun within the past
two years, have given great encourage
ment and lead those engaged in the expert
ments to the belief that Hawaii may be-
come an extensive producer of that valu-
able fiber, of which the importations into
the United States amount to more than

trophe comes and the boats are to be
useless.
The statement was made that if the
Clallam's lifeboats had been manned BY
crews. who, had been thoroughly drilled in
handling the boats in rough weather. like
the crews. in the life-saving service, the
chances are ten to one that the three
boats would have reached shore in safety.
Another statement made was that a
thorough inspection of the boats and life
ratts on many vessels would disclose the
fit for sea.

reports out OF its nrst crop dn expectation
OF about 9o0UO in value OF slsal Iii the year
1903, being obtalned from an area Ut aDcu!
I2U acres.
Manila hemp it is believed, win soon be
an important product.
Another valuable production Of Tic Far
East introduced experlmentally Is S1llatra
tobacco, and the experiments thus ilI IN
dictate that its cultivation III the hawd ian
islands may prove extremely successful.
Vanilla beans, also recently introduced,
give encouraging results and Indicate re-
turns of from $1,000 to $4,000 per acre iIoln
their cultivation. Coffee production, whlle
adversely affected in recent years Dy the
low prices prevailing in the worlds mar
kets, has developed to such an extent as
to give an increase in exports.
The sugar crop of 1903 is the largest ever
produced, aggTegating 75,UO90OJ pounds
against 1896, 900 900 pounds in b93, lll,lO,-
900 pounds in 1883, and 25,JO0.OOJ pounds
in 1875. The growth OF sugar production
in the Hawaiian islands from the date Of
the reciprocity treaty in 1915 has been
rapid, but the greatest growth has occur
red in more recent years.
4 n especially interesting fact developed
in connection with the sugar production a
the Hawaiian islands is tat in recent
years large tracts of land, formerly con
sidered valueless, have been brought order

more productive than that lpon wE'ch
