completed. the dixie having a 30.foot
base and l0-foot crest, Mr.. 'Hegardt
says that every foot OF the frontage
has been and will be divested OF roots,
snags and all substances likely TO rot
out and leave holows that may be
invaded by the tides to the detriment
OF the work OF reclamation, the whole
system being deeply ditched on the
inside.
He is sanguine of making the prop
erty, which cost him $1,000, worth
many times its cost by reason Of the
skilfull and careful work they are de
voting to it; and the completion OF
this work. along with several other
parallel ventures in that neighbor-

Miss King obtained a marriage license

ted that the marriage was the urgent
wish OF the aged physician, who was
believed TO be near death.
Miss King was very reluctant TO
discuss her approaching marriage with
the aged physician, but she admitted
that the wedding would take place as
soon as DR. Goodwin rallied from an
unusually severe spasm Of pain She
refused to state the time at which
the marriage would occur, claiming
that ii depended upon the instructions
from his physician.
Friends Of the old doctor say that
his wish to marry the woman who has
been his constant attendant is for the
purpose OF leaving her what remains
of his once large fortune. He is said
to have lost Q fortune in the failure

TRADE UNTONISM


THE trade union enables the fair en-
ployer-who, like the fair un-onist,
predominates-to estimate his labor
on a living basis. This system is a
good deal preferable to figuring on
what his unfair competitor can pro-
cure his cheapest help for. Not only
that, but it is protection for the mer-
chant. 1t enables the trade unionist
to live as becomes an American citi-
zen, and has a powerful influence in
procuring fair compensation for the in
diyidual whose conscience will not
permit him to join any combination in
this free CD competitive age. Again,
the union headquarters act as a clear
ing-house for the employer. 1t is con-
venient to send there for additional
help.
The trade union is not f1awless by
any means. 1t is a good deal easier
to tear down than to build up, but the
latter course applied with intelligence
to the labor movement will overcome
many of it's deficiencies. The gains
are greater than the losses. While the
dominant trait of human nature is
selfishness, just so long will we find
both sides endeavoring to get the best
of the industrial situation. The trade
union has come to stay. 1t is a natural
outgrowth of present-day conditions.

What Has Been Done

WHAT are the reforms that union
w labor is addressing itself to in
its effort to reach the good time COM
ing, and what means are being en-
ployed? In the first place it should be
noted we have come a long way al
ready. The hours of labor have been
reduced from sunrise and sunset to
ten and then to eight hours; Chinese
immigration has been stopped, as al
so the importation of contract labor;
the sweatshop has been eliminated in
large measure and wages have been
advanced. That is worth while. We
have undertaken to abolish child Ia
Dor and will not cease until it is ac-
complished and the child sent to
school. These are some of the things
we are working to accomplish. We
wish to secure the initiative and refer
endum and we are diligently at work
in every state to that end. The work
is progressing excellently. The mi
tiative and referendum once secured it
will form an effective means toward
other reforms.

concentrates attention upon the fact
that this is highly complex organiza-
ton, with all the elements mutually
dependent. The day is more than a
holiday for the sake of rest. 1t affords
an opportunity and it furnishes an in
centive for reckoning up the situation
at large from the broadcast possible
viewpoint. 1t is calculated, too, to
make for more intelligent apprecia-
ton by both sides of the great pro-
ductive combination, the employer and
the unemployed, of the conditions
which should in justice and equity gov
ern their relations. Every celebration
of the day should score an advance to.
ward practical lasting harmony, and
thus toward the ideal state OF social
organization.
