Eagle River review. [volume] (Eagle River, Wis.) 1890-1927, 1907-09-20

An employe of the federal bureau of
labor is quoted as saying that the pres
ept shortage In the labor markets of
the world Is due to the number Of mag
nif1cent undertakings now In progress.
He expects the shortage to continue,
II not to become even more pronounced.
For other huge enterprises are either
contemplated or already decided upon.
There Is the Panama Canal, which, it Is
said, will need the services Of 10000
men. The weekly assertions from this
army will always be large, and there
will thus be constant need Of fresh re-
cruits. Moreover, many Of the desert
ers return to their old world fields and
farms and are not available in the la
Dor market. In New York q conduit
that Is to zap the CatskiIls and give
the metropolis a new water supply Is
to be built at an estimated cost Of $780,
100000 A barge canal to cost over
S1OO,OOOOOO, is also to be constructed,
and these two projects will create
heavy demand for unskilled and skill
ed labor. In Canada, In Manchuria,
in Siberia, In Africa, railroads are
planned or In course Of construction
The supply Of Chinese and Japanese
coolie labor is practically inexhausti-
BILE, but some governments will not en-
ploy such labor. The Transvaal, for
example, has decided to repa triate the
Chinese laborers, and they must be re-
placed in the interest Of the mines and
of the welfare of the colony as
whole. In the United States, we know.
railroad experts declare that railroad
construction extension and improve
ment have failed to keep pace with the
| agricultural, industrial and commercial
progress of the country. Thousands of
miles of new tracks must be con-
structed IN the immediate future, and
this Will demand armies Of workmen.
The bearing Of these facts on the immI-
grafton problem Is manifest. It Is also
plain that the new enterprises call for
! tremendous amounts of capital as we'll
as for multitudes Of laborers. There
Will be bond issues galore. and I'M
usually good opportunities for investors
and fot those who have accumulated
little piles during the prosperous
year the worlo has enjoyed. Finan-
ciers say that the demand for capital
has outrun the supply of it by the saw
ing public, but the figures Of the banks
and the readiness with which tempt
ing securities are absorbed Indicate
that after a natural period of readJust-
ment capital will be forthcoming for
all safe and sound undertakings pub
lie and private.

FACTS ABOUT BOOK OF JOB,
Great Epic Probably Not the Work
of One Man,

Great Epic Probably Not the Work
of One Man.
The creation OF the tribal epic was
to some extent regarded as q tribal
work, like the building of the tribal
temple. Believe. then, If you will,
that the prologue Of Job and the ep-
ilogue and the speech OF Elihu are
things inserted after the original
work was composed. But do not sup
pose that such insertions have that
obvious and spurious character which
would belong to any insertions In a
modern individualistic book. Do not
regard the insertions as you would re
gard a chapter in George Meredith
which you afterwards found had not
been written by George Meredith, or
half scene In Ibsen which you found
had been cunningly sneaked In by Mr.
William Archer. Remember that this
old world, which made these old
poems like the Had and Job, always
kept the tradition Of what It was
making. A man could almost leave
poem to his son to be finished as he
would have finished 1t, just as a man
could leave n field to his son to be
reaped as he would have reaped It,
What is called Homerlc unity may be
a fact or not. The Had may have
been written by one man. 1t may
have been written by hundred men.
But let us remember that there was
more unity in those times In hun
dred men than there Is unity now In
one man. Then city was like one
man. Now one man Is like city In
civil war.-G. X. Chesterton in Put

Tomatoes and Peas Likewise AMIi-
ntcd--An Must Bear Label.
Garden truck bearing union labels
Is the latest thing proposed In New
burg, n. Y. Farmers In that vicinity
have organized and asked for utilization
with the Central Labor Union, says the
New York World.
The only rock IN the path Of the
brand-new idea Is whether a union
label can be affixed to vegetables. If
farmers can overcome this difficulty
they will be welcomed by the labor
unions and walking delegates will In
clude kitchen inspection among their
duties.
The farmers recently met at Sears
Union. Their idea Is to cut out the
middleman's profits and sell directly to
consumers For some years exactions
by commission merchants have grown
and profits to tillers of the soil have
been cut. The plan Is to form a COM
pany composed exclusively of members
Of the union to operate a large ex
change in Newburg and deal directly
with the people, selling union potatoes,
tomatoes, cabbage and garden truck of
all kinds slightly below present non
union prices. To secure cooperation of
the labor interests the farmers have
asked to join the Central Labor Union.
Union men in Newburg are enthusiasts
tic over the project and say they will
need no compulslon to purchase union
vegetables If the prices are lower. 1t
is acknowledged however that the
question of how to place union labels
on goods Is perplexing, and unless solv-
ed may keep the farmers outside the
breastworks of organized labor.
1t Is maintained by some persons that
every vegetable must be stamped.
Thereupon critics ask how it will be
possible to label ripe tomatoes without
squashing them. Others say 1t will not
do merely to label pea pods, but that
each separate pea must receive its GER
tifcate of character This would also
create work for the unemployed. Then
there has arisen the problem of how
succotash can be labeled.
When 1t comes to eggs, some Of the
labor men say 1t may be necessary to
include hens in the union. II this be
done the question of keeping them from
working overtime and the matter OF
limiting their output will have to be
solved.

The president Of the Plttshurg peace
conference has returned to this coun-
try after an unsuccessful mission
which was undertaken to persuade Ger
man manufacturers OF military toys to
shut down what he considered their
war-Inciting business THE manufac-
turers," he said, advised him that
their work was clearly a commercial
proposition. The Germans make toys
for our market because 1t Is the best
In which to sell" Several arguments
can be massed together to prove the
good faith OF the merchants. And,
first, there is the indubitable fact that
the military toy holds sway about as
long as the Noah's arks and other de-
lights of early youth Wooden soldiers
and tin soldiers and all their horrid
accoutrements soon become joke or
call forth sentimental tears like the
rest of baby'S battered playthings If
their makers, instead of being among
the most innocent and Industrious OF
humankind like poor old Caleb Plum
mer, really desired to drive men to
SlOodshed, such funny little travesties
as they produce would defeat the fell
purpose. 1t Is evident also that the
German manufacturers, whether they
be wealthy employers or humble en-
ployes, would hardly strive to arouse
the warlike spirit Of this country. For
that would he lending aid to possible
enemy and the little tin soldier would
become the symbol of treason Honest
thrift supplies a much better theory
for the military output. Finally, ex-
perIence Is against the idea either of
sinister intent or baleful influence.
Every male member OF peace con-
ference must have played with military
toys in his time and reformed without
recognizing the danger through which
he had passed. And If he reflects now
he Will realize that the real danger was
