CABINET OFFICERS FOR
INFORMATION.

Washington, May I2.-Believing that
the departments of commerce and la
Dor and agriculture have suspended
operation of the pure food and drug
act in certain cases, Representative
Steenerson of Minnesota has intro
duced several resolutions calling upon
the attorney general and the secre-
taries of the treasury, agriculture and
commerce and labor departments for
information as to the issuance OF any
executive orders waving the opera
ton Of the law in any case. Mr..
Steenerson intends to call up these
resolutions for consideration by the
house early next week. One OF the
Arms which Steenerson believes has
been exempted from the operation Of
the law is the Chicago house with
which Secretary Of the Treasury Nc
Veagh was formerly connected. Mr..
Steenerson declares that no officer of
the cabinet has the right TO suspend
the operation of the law in any case,
and says that il he does SO he is liable
to impeachment.

moses CALLED FIRST sTRIkE!s
Union Man Urges Churches to Support
Cause of Unions.

Chicago, May 12.--"Moses called the
first strike in the brick yards oa
Egypt and Aaron was the first busi-
ness agent. 1t was success. We de-
plore the necessity of strikes and boy
colts, but you must remember that this
blacklist preceded the strike, and that
nine times out of ten strikes are justi-
fable"
This was part Of the argument ad-
duced in an address last night by
James w. Kline, general president of
Intarnatiosal Brotherhood OF Black
smiths and Helpers, in the Western
avenue Methodist Episcopal church,
to prove that churhces should support
labor unions. He praised the Metho-
dist church for it's recognition OF the
trade unions. asd criticised 1t for up
holding the man who desired to re-
main outside of the union.
"The church must get OFF the fence"
he said. IF unions are good for some
wageearners, they are good for all. 1t
is the unions which have made wages
good, and the non-union men have
shared In this benefit without paying
for it in any way"
