c. w. Post. president of the
Citizens alliance and known
throughout the country for his
rabid anti-union and open shop
views, has new scheme with
which he expects to put labor or
CARNATIONS out of business and
leave the field clear to employers
associations and trusts. Mr.. Post
declares that the labor unions
thrive on publicity. and he pro-
poses that he and his kind make
in the country to censorize every
thing relating to union affairs.
Post has bigger job on his
hands than the car of Russia,
and a million times less power.
At the end of the present year
1t will be just a decade since the
fight began for the so-called open
shop. and at the forthcoming con-
vention of the American Fedora
ton of Labor, at Toronto, Ont.
some interesting data will be pre-
sented to show the results of the
first 10 years struggle. With the
exception of the iron and steel
workers, and possible one or two
other trades, all the national or
CARNATIONS will report increases
in memberships, in the face of
the bitterest opposition, which,
in some cases, are truly remark
able.
For example, the printers have
been subjected to the most severe
contest, which cost them upward
of s5,0O0,0O0, but they came
through with an increase in men,
bers, the shorter work day and a
general increase in wages ranging
from 25 per cent upward.
The miners were forced to
spend the next highest sum in
battling against the open shop. 1t
cost them over $4,000,000-but
here is the unparalleled result:
Hours of labor have been reduced
to eight per day, wages of the
poorest paid have advanced so to
100 per cent, and their member
ship has increased enormously
The current number of the
Amalgamated Journal, official or
gan of the iron, steel and tinplate
workers, contains an editorial
aimed at the United States Steel
corporation that rings with defi-
ance. The Journal charges that
"'the entire open shop program is
one of pretense and deceit. !"
whose votaries "avow that their
employees shall have liberty, but
their real intention is to deprive
them of 1t. They propose to dis
place the Industrial voice and vote
of many men to enthrone the ar
bitrary authority and despotic
will of one man." The Journal
quotes the celebrated utterance
of Lincoln that this country

When Jack 0'Connor was a
member of the New York Ameri-

press box one day watching the
play. One team tried out in prac-
tice catcher who had been in the
minor leagues for five years or
more.
O'Connor gave one fleeing
glance at the backstop as he gath
cred in a throw from the out
field and whipped the ball to
second.
He'll never do said Jack.
..Oh, come now, don't be jeal-
ous." remarked one of the boys
in the press box, facetiously.
Everybody in this business has
to have a start. You were not al

bet he's been in the minors a half
dozen years, but he hasn't caught
on to the major league way of
handling the ball."
O'Connor was correct. After
two weeks of patient but futile
effort to show him the major
league way" the management
sent the recruit back to the mi
nors, where he was bright star
for several. seasons.

1t isn't because Easterly Is me-

In marked contrast to the war
of determination that is being
waged against the labor organiza-
lions by the United States Steel
corporation in its mills and upon
the great lakes is the action of the
British Shipbuilding Employers
federation which has fought the
unions for years, and several
years ago locked out upward of
10000 men. entailing a direct
loss to both sides of over 100000
900.
The British unions were defeat
ed, surrendered, reorganized, and
with traditional tenacity demand
ed recognition. The employers
federation counted the cost of
the last battle. with the result
that a few days ago an agreement
was entered into with the repre-
sentatives of &c labor unions that
virtually insures peace for three
years. The agreement provides
that no strike or lockout shall be
declared until every means of con-
ciliation shall have been exhaust
ed In joint conferences, and
neither side is to demand a change
in working conditions at shorter
periods than six months.
The growing disposition of the
British workman to engage in in
dependent political action and to
vote against employers candi-
dates tended greatly to bring
about better feeling.
Although in the second strike
of postal, telegraph and telephone
employees in France the govern
ment was credited with having
gained a victory, its order forbid
ding those workers to organize
has not only not been enforced,
but European labor publications

French cabinet officials are pre-
pairing bills to present to parlia-

of attempting to turn back the
hands of time.
=
Inspired by the occurrences in
France, the government employees
in Germany, who are also prohib-
tied from organizing, have been
quietly forming an association
among themselves, and Emperor
William is likely to be the next
ruler who will be given some un-
easy moments. Germany has the
most powerful trade unions in the

being double that of France, and
the solidarity and discipline is
that of well-drilled army.
