PICKING, China, April 12.-

China, keep open the door of the
East? This question is being ask,
ed in diplomatic circles around
the world. The general impress.
sion is that he will.
For on this serious-mindeG

duty of ruling the largest empire

The empress dowager picked
him for the place herself. And
she was rated as good judge OF

Prince Chun Is the first Chi
nese ruler to make trip outside
China. He has travelled half way
around the world. His longest
"trip came when he was sent to
make amends to the German gov
eminent for the murder of Varon
Won Kettler, German minister to
Picking.
. On this trip Chun was a keen
observer of men and things. Like
WI Ting Fang, he asked many
questions. He actually delivered
himself of an epigram after visit
ing France and Germany. Here
| it is:
"The Germans get up in the
morning and go to work. The
French get up at night and go to
the theater."
Prince Chun spent about six
weeks In America, during which
he visited Grants tomb, ate birds

Heretofore the National Con-
sumers' league has occupied a pas
sive position regarding the ques-
lions of wages, hours, etc., and
confined Its efforts to waging wal
against sweatshops and their prod
ucts.
Now the league has entered q
new era. At the national conven-
ton in Providence, r. l., just held
1t was admitted that after 10
years experience the plans to reg.
ulate the sweated trades have ut
|terly failed.
The Consumers league is now
|organized in 20 states and EN-.
braces so subordinate bodies. The
membership is almost exclusively
composed of society and profes.
sional women who have become
interested in the sweatshop phase
of the labor question, although
many prominent men are also
members. At the Providence con.
lvention of Prof. John Graham
Brooks of Cambridge, well-known
as an author and lecturer, was
|elected national president, and
Florence Kelley of New York, gen.
eral secretary.
1t is the custom of the league to
arrange white lists" in the princi-
pal cities containing the names OF
firms which handle women's
clothing bearing the leagues label
These labels are furnished to such
concerns only that have no deal
ings with sweatshots.
During the present year COM

cation of the piece work system in
the manufacture of women's un-
der garments and devise plans tc
establish wage boards for the
purpose of participating in the ad
justment of working conditions
and the solution of other problems
that arise between employers ant
employees. In other words, the
league, representing the purchas
ing public, intends to have some
thing to say regarding labor ques

The league also intends to de
mand that the states enact laws

The Hatters' union is a trust.
The Hat Manufacturers associa-
ton is not a trust. This, in sub
stance, is the jug-handled justice
that has been handed down from
the federal bench. In the Loew
case the United Hatters were
declared to have violated the
Sherman antitrust law, and the
union may be forced to pay as
high as 100000 damages and
costs when the final entry is made
in the court docket.
A Boston hat-making firm reor-
ganized, withdrew from the manu-
facturers' association, and signed
an agreement with the union in or
der to secure competent workmen
and retain its trade. The United
States district court denied the
right of the firm to withdraw
from the combine and held it in
line on $4,000 bonds.
Again, the Massachusetts SUI
preme court decides in a building
trades case that unions had no
control of their memberships and
that a member could not be disci-
|plined for refusing to strike.
Where are we at?
Not satisfied with having de-
creed that the Plumbers union
must pay $4,000 for picketing,
the Manitoba court of appeals has
decided further that the Machin-
lists union must pay $4,000 DAM
ages to a concern against which
| they are striking. The Manitoba
unions are all affiliated with in
lternational organizations that
compose the American Federation
of Labor, and the memberships in
Florida are as much interested in
these cases as the Canadians.
Cigarmakers, printers, tobacco
workers and other unions that
have labels are intensely interested
in the new tariff bill now before
congress. A clause in the tobacco
schedule reads that no package OF
tobacco or cigarets shall have at
tached thereto any article OF
thing" other than the manufac.
turers' wrappers and labels. II
this provision is adopted the union
label will be outlawed on tobacco
products. Hence hard fight will
be made against the anti-labe
y clause.
