A Bridgeport {Conn.A special says
The trading stamp field is to be invad-
ed by the labor unions Of this city

American Labor Union Trading Stamp
company" The company. headed by
John j. O'Neil. the state organizer Of
labor unions is incorporated; in this
state with capital Of $4,000. Shares
will be sold for S25 among union men.
The promoters of the new company
say that it is not intended to intimi-
date merchants by holding the union
trading stamp over their heads, but
the business men agree that if they
refuse to handle the union stamp on
union made goods they will lose the
trade of organized labor,

Fighting Labor Legislation.

Lately the labor leaders, it is claimed,
have come into possession Of many
confidential documents Of the National
Association of Manufacturers which
bear directly upon pending labor legis
lation and which in their opinion will
assist them in the presentation of
their arguments for various bills. Sew
eral days ago the Star printed an eX
tract from a document of this charac
ter which bore upon the anti-injunc
ton bill and which urged the various
associations and employers to petition
the members Of the house committee
on judiciary to make an unfavorable
report upon the measure.
Within the past few days the Off
cials of the federation have it is said.

A LABOR COLONY.
A Plan to Place Union Men on Five
Acre Farms In Mississippi.

InioE workers are to have an on-
portunity to return to the Soll-soil III
America. +. L. Dwver, Il Chicago Ia
Dor organizer. has conceived this plan
to raise, wages in the great industrial
centers. An agricultural company has
been organized. Thirty thousand acres
of land near Wellman. Miss. has been
secured. and il is the purpose to put
5000 Chicago unionists and their faml
lies on FIVE acre tracts. each setter 10
own his own farm According to the
promoters Of the scheme. five acres and
a COW, with possibly pig, will support
In comparative comfort, and certainly
In peace, any strong limbed union
worker
Property is to be sold to union mem
bers on the easy payment plan, ana
provision is made for the return of the
investment If after trying farming they
prefer the turmoil and excitement Of
city life.
"If 10000 union workers buy farms
in Mississippi" said Mr.. Dwyer, 1.-The
men now forced to be idle can get
work Competition for jobs will be re-
duced, and the law of supply and de
mand will force wages up. The fact
that thousands of idle men can be
found in Chicago at any time is proved
by the newspapers almost every day.
It doesn't make any difference how
many men strike. There are always
enough men idle. but willing to work,
who are prepared to take the vacan-
cies, even if some risk is involved.
"In the country many fixed expenses
of city life are at once eliminated he
continued "There Is no car fare to
pay, no milk to buy, and cabbage does
not cost 5 cents head A simpler life
Is possible There are no Gemoraliz-
ing diversions to take money from
the pockets OF workingmeu. Husking
bees in a neighbours barn and picnics
without beer family visiting and local
politics enliveu life without being ex-
pensive and degrading.
"Many things thought necessary In
Chicago are found useless on southern
farms. There is no reason why any
rational man or woman cannot live il
a good neighborhood upon the product
of five acres of good land"
The plan is to form land "unions' of
ten men each. One OF this number
Will be elected to go south and exam
Inc the property and the prospects of
farming in that section. The land will
be sold for $40 an acre. the $50 requir
ed for a FIVE acre farm to be. paid in
weekly installments. 4 force Of men

and, in short, prepare the property for

ton is expected to take place within

To Prevent Discriminat tion.

The Rhode Island house Of repre-
sentatives has passed a bill introduced
by Mr.. Sullivan, Democrat Dor
representative. making it unlawful for
employers to prevent workmen from
joining labor unions or to discharge
employees who are union members.
The act previously had been reported
favorably and recommitted at the re-
quest of corporations which are max
ing contracts requiring employees to
be nonunionists
An effort was made to insert a pro-
vision penaliZing labor unions if they
force nonunion men out of employ
ment, but it was defeated
