Arbitration Law.
A Penalty Is Fixed By Law For
Any One Guilty of Causing
Illegal Strike.

An act to aid in the prevention and
settlement of strikes and lockouts in
mines and idustries coected with
public utilities was passed recently
by the Parliament Of the Dominion Of
Canada.
The measure provides for govern
ment investigation Of labor disputes
in the industries connected with pub
lie utilities and imposes fines upon
those resposible for causing strikes or
lockout prior to the holding Of such
government investigation. The fine.
for employees is from $40 to $50, and
for employers from $100 to $1,000 for
each day Of the illegal strike or lock-
out, respectively.
There is also penalty Of not less
than $50 nor more than $1,000 upon
''any person who incites, encourages,
or aids any manner any employer
to declare lockout, or any employe
to go or continue on strike contrary
to the provisions OF this act.
This seems to be compulsory arbi-
tration with club.

IF YOU ARE A WOMAN
YOU MUST WORK CHEAP
Governor Hughes Of New York
Don't Believe in Equal Pay
For Women.
Vetoes Measure Adopted Legisla-
ture, and Gives His Reason
Therefor.

New York, June 13.-Governor
Hughes has sent to the senate mes
sage vetoing the New York city teach
ers' equal pay bill, on the ground
that Equal pay for men and women
for equal work. is general PROPOSE
ton and that lit should not be adopted.
by the state unless the state is pre-
pared to apply it generally"
In spite of the many blows which
the women teachers bill has Already
received, Grace Strachan, leader in
the fight was bitterly disappointed by
the action of Governor Hughes.
I'VE are preparing to carry it over
the governors veto," declared Miss
Strachan. This means we must OBJ
tain a two thirds vote Of the senaee
and assembly, but I think we can do
it,"
His Reasons.
Governor Hughes gave as his rea-
sons for vetoing the bill that it would
commit the state of New York to
new policy that would be most far
reaching in its consequences. He
holds that the bill embodies a social
question of the equality Of the sexes
in earning capacity and opens prob
lem country wide. 1t also involved
an added expenditure of $5,0OO,OOO
yearly, and the governor stepped
aside.
In his veto he said:
1.-THE proposition, as is is put, 'eqaul
pay for equal work. is an attractive
one.
But it is manifest that the prin-
ciple is one of general applicat ton and
it should not be adopted by the state
unless the state is prepared to apply
it generally. If sound, it should be
applied to our state hispital service. in
our charitable and reformatory insti-
tutions, and generally through the
civil service of the state.'
Look to Unions.
The teachers Of New York, when
they began their fight in the state
legislature. appealed to the State
Federation Of Labor Of New York and
the central labor body Of New York
city for their support. -. <s,-. >...sssz
Trey met w 1uicllEkzs lkz rsa5ons1E
from those bodies, and trade union
labor throughout the state has helped
to carry on the teachers struggle for
what is we'll known union priciple,
IAN equal wage for equal work." .
The teachers are learning that their
only hope is in a united working
class, Of which they are a part.

SOUTHERN WOMAN PAYS
TRIBUTE TO GOMPERS
President of American Federation
Of Labor visits Atlanta,
Georgia.
Men and Women From All Glasses
Turn Out and Give Him
Warm Reception.

Samuel Gompers, president Of the
American Federation of Labor, visit
ed at Atlanta, Ca, recently. and he
was accorded typical southern re-
ception. In one Of the papers there
appeared the following tribute to
labor's great chieftian by Mrs. O..
Delight Smith, a literary woman Of
much fame in the South:
"Chronicled among the events Of
Labor in Atlanta has been registered
one which shall stand out bright and
clear upon the fair pages Of Atlanta's
labor history: that Of the visit Of
President Samuel Gompers Of the
American Federation of Labor.
1.-The strains from the orchestra
semed only prelude to that which
was to follow, when the chieftian Of
American labor began to speak. One
look into those clear honest eyes, one
glance upon that open face, makes
one know that a soul Of dazzling
whiteness hangs behind a life SO pure
and a life so devoted to the good of
his fellowman. Seeing, is to rever-
ence him.! Hearing, is to adore him.
"A man, grown old in the service
Of the laboring millions, and yet while
upon the declining side of life he yet
retains the sprightliness of one much
his junior. With sunny face, yet
straunch and true-he Immediately

spontaneously towards the true being

toned and gracious mind, honest.
noble, the friend of truth, justice,
courage, temperance! Who feels the
very heart pulsations Of his fellow
laborer in his breast, and knows from
past and bitter experiences the
strength and weaknesses o. them who
toll.
"Not old, except in years, and good
deeds done, and useful days we'll
spent. Whose life has been bene-
diction to the laboring millions, a
benefactor to those who have lived
with him; and whose life will be a
beacon light whose rays. shall pene-
trate the farthest corners of the
earth, and shine down through the

His foot prints have been left in
the sands of time, and now although
his step Is growing slow with ais de-
clining years, his feet are pressed the
harder and his steady tread is all the
firmer upon the sandy mountain side of
life, and generations who shall follow
after will press those foot prints
once again, and DER and DER will sing
his name.
ATLANTA, Georgia, and the entire
southland, are proud to know that he
has been their guest, and part with
him with sorrow for they realize that
his is a life Of usefulness and in all
probability this is their last opportu-
nifty to hear the Grand Old Man,"

soul may sink to rest in the Great ALL
