ONLY A PALLIATIVE.
A Twentieth Century View of Arbi-
tratfOn by an Old IniOntst

To the general public the present at
ttude of the unions toward arbitration
as compared with that which they held
until recent years may appear contra
dictory. y few years ago when work
lngmen $ organizations went on strike
the officials were expected to say, I'VE
are willing to submit our case to arbi-
tration. That meant that at that
time the men had so much confidence
in their cause that if they could give
II publicity by any means whatever,
Including arbitration, they would have
reason ta rejoice, and they usually be
lieved that any arbitration court what
soever would surely grant them bet
ter conditions than those under which
they were then usually working. But
since organizat ton has become more
complete and SO much progress has
been made in curtailing hours and ad
vancing wages the first stage Of the
general case of labor before the pub
lie has been passed. The unions can
now generally stand on their own feet.
They are, if not fully capable of indie
pendent bargaining, at least able to
send efficient representatives from
their ranks to confront the representa-
tives of employers. The unions also
are tired Of the game of splitting the
difference. Strong unions now know
that 1t is better to confer with en-
ployers face to face and argue out
differences patiently point by point.
,},;l; hnt
result will lie an agreement that both
sides clearly understand and conse-
Qucntly may keep inviolate.
The National Civic federation. which
has had a broader experience than
any other institution in the country in
both arbitration and conciliation. re
fuses itself to become part of that
form Of interference known as arbitra-
ton. 1t does recommend conciliatiOn.
and the active members of the various
committees of the fedora ton are con
stantly engaged as third parties in con-
cilation.
The situation as to arbitration and
concilation up to the present time may
thus be summed up: Arbitration may
be Of considerable good to the weaker
party: conciliation is an excellent means
of bringing men who are at odds into
one anothers presence prepared to ar
que out their separate pleas: the trade
agreement. if made up by the two par
ties, employers and employed, is the
most satisfactory outcome from all the
methods for social peace yet suggested.

Clothing Trades

NEW YEARS ODDITIES.

In Persia on New Years eve huge
bonfires are kindled, and the more ac-
tive persons present leap over or

Fires must not be allowed to 20 out
on New Years day in the north Of
England or the luck of the year will be
bad.
At the New Year French parents be-
stow dowries on their children, broth
ers do the same on their sisters, and
husbands make settlements on their
wives.
Unless the first person who comes
into the house after the advent of the
new year be black haired Scotsmen be-
lieve that bad luck will follow them
during the year.

Truth About Chicago Drfver..

One OF the worst and most malicious
lies that have been industriously set
agOing by the capitalist press and pull
pit recently is that which claims that
the unions in Chicago have refused to
allow union men to drive hearses while
their strike was on and that there
fore the rights of the dead have been
outraged by organized labor. There
is no truth in it. In fact. it is one of
upright" that it falls over backward.
1t is the Chicago liverymen who have
prevented the burial of the dead with.
out serious Inconvenience, AS soon as
the drivers went on strike, or, rather,
were locked out. the union offered to
furnish drivers free Of charge to drive
hearses to funerals. But the hack
provided for any one of their number
who sent out vehicle with union
lriver, and they rejected the proposal
On the morning after the Iroquois the
lter fire the union hating Chicago
Chronicle came out in big headlines
is follows: STRIKERS .Jeer at Holocaust.
Livery Drivers Refuse Aid to Victims
of 1roquois Fire" and so on. Yet at
the very time that heading was writ
ten the proclamation of the livery driv-
ers' union was in the newspaper offices
declaring truce in the strike and or
dering every driver to report for duty
to his respective place of employment.

A LABOR JUBILEE.
Why the Next Labor Day Should H
Celebrated at st. Louis

Why the Next Labor Day Should Re
Celebrated at st. Louis.
81 should like to see Il move started
by the st. Louis unions to hold a ma
tional celebration of Labor day next
September at the worlds fair to which
the whole country should be invited, -
said Charles w. Fear, a we'll known
union printer, to Kansas City re-
porter
AS many union men know, the first
organized effort toward the holding of
a worlds fair in commemoration of the
Louisiana purchase was held by and
under the auspices of organized labor
All the work on the exposition grounds
has been begun and will be finished by
organized labor. Therefore there is no
objection to holding a national jubilee
celebration ut the fair by organized la
Dor of the United States on these
grounds, and every one will agree that
the wonderful strides made by organ
lied labor in the whole country GER
tainly warrant a week of general re-
joicing and rest by the men who have
helped to bring about this condition of
affairs and their families. who have
been benefited and who are certainly
thankful for the benefits which have
accrued to all as a result of the sue
cesses of organized labor as whole
"All that is necessary to hold the big
SeSt gathering of laboring men ever
held in the country is for the St Louis
union men to start the ball rolling and
make arrangements for a big Labor
day parade the first Monday in next
September and the holding of jubilee
services on the fair grounds and then
invite the organized rkingmen of
the United States to participate. Ev-
erything is ripe for it. and the condi-
tions require that such demonstra-
ton he held at no distant date.
'.St. Louis and the fair grounds is the
place to hold the celebration. and the
sooner it is started the bigger the gath
ering"

Labor Day Proclamation,

Governor Morrison has issued the
following Labor day proclamation:
In the presence of history and con
templating the course of events
through the centuries mankind must
acknowledge labor as the essential in
gredient and ruling element in all
human development. Nations, com
munities and individuals advance and
prosper as their labor is protected
and rewarded. Human selfishness
alone mars the harmony of progress
sion and begets discord between clas-
ses whose interests are independent.
The just settlement of differences be-
tween capital and labor is the prob
lem of the times. 1t is one of govern
ment and its solution must recognize
the dignity and worth of those who
toll and their command in every
economy of life commensurate with
right living
The better TO emphasize all this,
and in the interests of wider
brotherhood and deeper sympathy
among men, the federal government,
for the District of Columbia, and
MANY of the states Of the Union, have
designated day as legal holleayi
to be observed as Labor day. The
state of Idaho has not designated such
day by statute, yet precedent 1oi
its observance is established and ouI
people are in full sympathy with thS
patriotic thought.
Therefore, l, John L. Morrlson'
oovernor of Idaho, do earnestly rec
ommend the celebration, by our cltl
zens. of Monday, September D, lSof'
as Labor day. Let there be to the OK
tent possible cessation of the usua
occupations and gathering togethel
of those who toll and Of those wh'
amnlov labor to the end that mutua
interests may be recognized and hon
ored and broader sympathy estap
Iised. Let the conventions assem-
BILE under the banner of brotherhoo'
and exalt the truth that Labor "io
as earth. has lis summit In heaven
