GREAT ADVANCE MADE
IN IMMIGRANT LAW
New immigration Law Puts Ef-
fectual Check on 1mmigra-
tion Torrent.
Restriction on Foreigners and Pro-
vision For Their Transport !
alton Is Healthful,

Washington, March 7.-Leaders Of
organized labor figure they have not
Jared so badly as they might in re-
gard to the immigration bill that has
just passed congress.
They consider that in that provi-
sion Of the bill increasing the air space
for each immigrant from 12O cubic
feet to 180 cubic feet they have Sc
cured provision quite as important
as the educational test would have
been. In fact, as they calculate, the,
provision for increased air space will
curtail the tide of Immigration more
heavily than the educational test would
have done.
According to the way the leaders Of
the American Federation of Labor
look at it the educational test would
cut off about rs per cent of the immi-
grafton. The increase in the amount
Of air space required for each immi-
grant will cut off 33 1-3 per cent More
than this the increase lin the head
tax from 81 to 81 will enlarge the in
come to the government greatly, and
will enable the bureau of immigration
to carry out it's work more effectively.
The provision in the bill for the ap-
pointment Of a commission to inves-
tigate immigration problems is also
looked on as important.
It is calculated the increased head
tax will bring to the government about
$2,25O,000 more revenue annually This
Will provide a largely increased sum
available for the use of the bureau
of immigration in carrying out the law.
The bill that has been passed pro-
vides for commission of three mem
bers Of the senate, three of the house
and three appointed by the president
Organized labor is anxious to have a
representative on this commission for
the purpose of making it certain there
will be thorough investigation of the
question.
1t is likely the attention of the pres
ident will be called to the fact that
organized labor is entitled to have a
representative on the commission.

AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE
\. ?. A. AND THE |. 7. j.
The American Newspaper Pub
fishers and I. T. u. Make
an Agreement.

Advices have been received from
New York that the American News
paper Publishers association and the
1nternational> Typographical Union
have Just negotiated a new five-year
arbitration agreement. An arbitration
agreement between the two organiza-
tions has been in operation for the past
five years, and terminates on May 1,
1907. '',,~''
The renewal Of this agreement means
that the present harmonious relations
between the International Typograph-
ical Union and the Newspaper Publish
ers' association will be continued for
another flve years. =: = =.
The signing Of this. agreement blasts
the hope Of the United Tpothetae of
America that the Newspaper Publish,
ers' association would refuse to renew
the existing agreement, and would join
hands with them In waging war against
the union. The agreement provides for
the arbitration of all diff1culties which
arise over wage scalex within certain
slimttati ions.

CHICAGO OPERATORS
. GAIN GREAT VICTORY
Organization Wins Chicago 0per-
ators Wage Raise and Other
Concessions.

Here's to the telegraph operators!
The operators in the employ of the
Western Union Telegraph company in
Chicago became wise to the fact that
their wages were not in keeping with
that paid to men working for other
telegraph companies and organized.
committee of nine was appoint
ed to wait on the company and pre-
sent the request for an advance in
wages.
The committee was discharged by
the company.
This was followed by a demand Of
the union for their reinstatement, and
statement that if it was not COM
piled with a strike of all employees
would follow.
Then things got busy in the head
quarters of the Western Union TEL
egraph office in New York and Pres
1dent Clowry granted an increase of
10 per cent in wages to all the oper-
ators In the principal cities through.
out the country
The employees very gracefully accent
ed the raise in. wages; but still per-
sisted in the demand that the men be
reinstated.
After thinking the matter over for
a couple of days, the company caved
IN and the discharged men returned
to their posts wearing their union
buttons, which is all the ''recognition''
the union insists on at this time.

I do not blame them. They know that
they are not the equals of. their fell
lows in body, mind orsoul; that their
bodies are dwarfed, crooked and weak,
their minds dull and clouded, their
souls darkened and vicious. Physi-
clans testify that nervous exhaustion
produced by child labor in factories,
sweatshops and mines not only stunts
growth, but produces a nervous irrita-
ton which calls for liquor and tobac-
co and causes still another vice worse
than either.
Degeneracy the Result.
'These children reaching what ought
to be manhood and womanhood be-
come the parents of offspring Inherit
ing their degeneraoy, and these chill
dren in turn grow up to produce other
children still more dengerate.. This
ruin of American citizenship, upon
which alone this republic, the last ex-
pertinent Of freedom rests, is too high
a price to pay for making still richer
a few men who are already too rich.
National Effect.
What this means to the future of
the nation is before us in an example
which has started the world-the de-
terioration of the British people re-
vealed by the Boer war. When the
100000 who tnhabit England, Ire
land, Scotland and Wales were called
upon to furnish an army to meet 49,
600 Boer farmers in South Africa an
average of 80 per cent of all recruits
were rejected for reasons of physical
and nervous inferiority. The inspec-
tor general reports that from 40 to
80 per cent were unfit for military
duty. Under size, narrow chest, bad
teeth, decayed nerves, bad vision and
all the other evidences of race in
feriority were the causes of rejection.
"Of those that were accepted for
military duty per cent were immedi-
ately found unfit for service. OF the
