LABOR LEGISLATION
Republican States Have Been Lib.
eral i'm Legislation for
Labor. IL
Democratic States Have Done Little
to Make Labor Conditions Better
Within Their Bounds.

1t Is fact that every important step
for the benefit of American labor has
been taken either by Republican
Congress and administration, or by the
Legislature of Republican State, OF
course with the consent, and sometimes
by the advice, of the State executive
Democratic Congresses have been no
tably negligent in this respect, and
nothing to make. labor conditions bet
ter within their bounds, or have slowly
and. reluctantly followed at a distance
in the trail of Republican reforms.
State Legislation.
The States have control of labor leg
islation within their respective bounds
federal authority being confined, so far
as labor is concerned, to the District
of Columbia and the territories, federal
reservations and federal public works
The story of labor legislation shows
that nearly all labor reforms originated
in Republican States, and at the pres
ent day the Republicans are far ahead
of the Democrats in the enactment and
enforcement of laws for the welfare
of men and women and children who
work for a living. Twenty-six out OF
thirty Republican States have labor
bureaus, and only seven out of sixteen
Democratic States have similar bu-
reaus, without which labor laws are
often dead letters. Twentythree Re
publican States have factory inspectors
to see to the enforcement of the factory
laws. Only six Democratic States have
factory inspection services. Fifteen
States thirteen Republican and two
Democratic-have free employment
agencies. Eighteen States have laws
on their statute books prohibiting labor
on government works or public con.
tracts for more than eight hours day
OF these States sixteen are Republican
and two Democratic. Four Republican
States and one Democratic State have
laws declaring eight hours to be legal

Trade Union Labels.

Fourteen Republican States and only
one Democratic State-Nevada-h
laws in force prohibiting employers
from discharging persons on account Of
membership in labor organizations, or
from compelling persons to agree not
to become members of labor organiza-
lions as condition of securing employ
ment or continuing in their employ.
Forty States have passed laws allowing
trade unions to adopt labels or trade
marks to be used to designate Products
of the labor Of their members, and pro-
hibiting the counterfeiting of the use
of such labels or trademarks by un-
authorized persons. OF these States
twenty-eisht are Republican and twelve
are Democratic
The foregoing presents for considera-
ton by intelligent, patriotic labor sub
stantial facts and figures taken from
the statute books Of the several States
No platitude can upset them They
prove the records of the Republican
party and Of the Democracy on the la.
Dor issue. and they must convince ev.
cry reasonable reader that the Republi.
can party has not only brought Ameri-
can labor up to its present honorable
standard, but that labor can look only
to the Republican party for assurance
Of protection and prosperity in the
future.

tract Twenty-seven States prohibit
the employment of children under four.
teen years of age in factories. OF these
twenty-three are Republican and four
are Democratic States. Laws limiting
the hours of the employment of chill
dren in factories or stores have been en-
acted in twenty-four Republican and
thirteen Democratic States. Eighteen
Republican and ten Democratic States

Republican and three Democratic
States prohibit the employment of chill
dren in operating dangerous machinery
or cleaning machinery in motion. Fiji

en-. 1t should be noted that twelve of
the Republican States which limit
women's hours of labor have factory
inspectors to see that the law is obeyed,
while only three of the Democratic
States make such provision. In twenty
three Republican and ten Democratic
States employers are required by law
to provide seats for female workers.
Twelve States have enacted Iegisla-
ton intended to effect the extinction of
the sweatshop system, with it's degrad-
ing and revolving accessories. Of these
twelve States ten are Republican and
two Democratic. Seventeen Republican

The Cumberland Telephone and Tele-
graph Company has asked the Leglsla-
ture for special committee to investi-
gate the affairs and business of the
company in Mississippi and ascertain
for themselves whether there is any
foundation for the suit filed by Attorney
General Fletcher to take away their
franchise. The memorial is copy of
the statement submitted few weeks
since to the Railroad Commission and is
very voluminous. The Attorney Gene
raj charges that the company has vio-
lated the anti laws in that it has
conspired to prevent other companies
from doing business, etc. To these
charges the company answers that in
the very nature of things telephone
company is bound to be monopoly,
for the reason that a multiplicity of
companies would tend to double up the
price of the service enormously and
would not be able to give anything like
satisfactory service.

BAY ST. LOUIS PUBLIC SCHOOL.
A Number Of improvements and Repairs Have
Been Made About TIE Building.

The following are some of the
improvements at the Bay St
Louis Public School:
The High School has been en-
tirely reorganized and strictly
graded. There will probably be
an eleventh grade next year.
Two literary societies have been
organized and are doing very good
work. These give the children OF
the upper grades oral ex gression
A newspaper has Seen founded
for the purpose of giving written
expression, and to stimulate emu
latinn in composition. Its effects
are already noticeable.
The school now has a com
modious workshop supplied with
all necessary tools, and the boys
of the upper grades are being
taught woodwork.
Free hand drawing has been in
troduced into the whole sch DOL ex-
cept the two lowest grades, anJ
ratfia and reed work will be done
by the girls of the upper grades.
The fences and gates of the
school premises have been put in
first-cIaSs condition and will soon
be whitewashed.
Commodious benches have been
built under the trees on both
sides for the children to use dur
ing the dinner hour.
Flowers are now being planted
in the front yard, and vines will
soon cover the front piazza, max
ing the school house look quite
homelike.
A plot of ground will be cult
vated by the class in agriculture,
who will raise vegetables.
A piano has been rented for
the school, and the children will
soon have regular exercises in
singing.
In order to make the school
still more attractive, d rifle club
and an archery club have been
organized. The girls also have
two basket ball teams.

STICK TO THE AGREEMENT.

Gulfport Record Tribune
In the settlement of the saloon ques-
ton it was understood that the prohibi-
ton wing had agreed to make the time
of closing December 81, 1908, providing
the wet element did not raise any cppo-
sition to the passage OF the prohibition
bill.
It now appears that the prohibition
element is dissatisfied with the arrange
ment and want to shorten the time to
June or July.
AS paper that has taken absolutely
no part in the discussion, either one way
or another, the Record Tribune believes
the prohibition element is not doing
right after giving out that it would
agree that December 81 be fixed as the
date for suspending the liquor traffic in
Mississippi. The antis accepted the
agreement in good faith and gave up
the fight. To now go back on this
agreement does not look like square
deal.
We believe in giving the devil his
dues. The saloons in this State have a
big stock on hand and, unless given an
opportunity to dispose OF it, would suf-
fer more or less loss. BY giving them
full year more, they will have ample
time to get nd of their stock without
entailing either loss or i'll feelings.
This is small enough concession to
make on the eve of protracted prohibi-
ion.

DEATH OF FRANCIS B. DUNBAR.
Member Of c. w. Dunbar Sens, ef Bay St
Lsuis, Stricken With Heart Failure At Break
fast Table yesterday.

The Echo regrets exceedingly to learn
of the demise of Francis B. Dunbar, a
member Of the firm of G. w. Dunbar
Sons, Bay St. Louis, Miss, and Dun
bar and New Orleans, La.
While seated at the breakfast table at
his home, Dorgenois and Esplanade,
New Orleans, yesterday, Mr.. Dunbar
died OF heart failure before his wife, who
was seated beside him, could call for as
sistance. Death came without the slight
est warning. Although it had been
known for some time that fhe deceased
was troubled with weak heart, there
was no indication whatsoever that death
would come so soon or so suddenly.
About 1880 o'clock yesterday morning
Mr.. Dunbar was seated at the table
drinking his coffee and smoking cigar
cite, while his wife was reading to him
of a smoker in which he was interested
from the morning paper. He had just
returned the night before from a COM
bined business and pleasure trip to Biloxi
and was apparently in the best of health
when he sat down to the table. While
his wife was reading to him she was
suddenly brought to her feet by heavy
thud, and dropping the paper, she saw
her husband lying on the floor. She
ran to the back door and shouted to the
coachman, who ran into the house and
picked up the PROSTATE form, but be-
fore he had been carried to his bedroom
upstairs life was extinct.
The deceased was 81 years old and a
member of one of the most aristocratic
Creole families of Louisiana. He was
born in New Orleans, but received most
Of his education along with his brother,
George H. Dunbar, the senior member
of the firm, abroad. They first attended
the Mississippi Military Institute, then
went to Baltimore, and when the war
broke out left there and studied in Bor-
deaux, France. 1t was at this place that
George learned the canning business,
and after becoming proficient in it re-
/
turned to New Orleans, where he joined
with his father under the firm name ofG
w. Dunbar & Son. Later the deceased
was taken into the firm, and upon the
death of his father the firm name was
changed to George w. Dunbar Sons.
The deceased was a member of the
pioneer firm of packers in Louisiana.
Figs, shrimps, oysters and tomatoes
were the principal articles packed by
them, and after several years Of business
their product proved SO good that it was
soon in demand all over the United
States and Europe.
Mr.. Dunbar married Miss Anna
Tourne in 1869 He leaves widow and
three children, Mrs. Emil Christ, James
v. and E. A. Dunbar.
He was a member of a number of clubs
end societies, among them the Boston
Club, the Louisiana Club, the Board of
Trade and number of Carnival societies.
He was also prominent in church circles
being q member of ST. Rose de Lima
Church. He was also one of the organ
izers of the Hancock County Bank of
this city, and was director in the Third
District Savings Bank, of New Orleans.
The funeral will be held this afternoon
at 3 o'clock from the residence. Inter
ment will be made at the family tomb at
Metairie Cemetery.
