RevivAlof Old Camps.

Compared with the development of
new and rich discoveries in the mining
field, the revival of old-time camps is
usually slow and difficult undertake

out" class is always hard struggle in
any case. "Something new, always
something new" is the American slogan
of today and the people are too busy in
making new history to spend much
time in digging up the old

to old bonanzas trying to regain their

however, we see the tide drifting more

landmarks of early wealth and we note
several notable rejuvenations which

Labor Should Be Consistent.

for years that the union label is
lar better weapon than boycotts,
strikes or any other, and also that
every union man should insist
upon the label on every article he
buys and not be content with boost
ing the label Of his own craft, says
the Rochester Labor Journal.
This is truer than ever since
Judge Wrighl's decision in the
tiompers- Mitchell Buck stove case.
No matter what the courts may
rule as to boycotts. There is no
court in the land that can compel
any person to buy an article be or

on the statute hooks that can. com

Just as there is no law which can
compel you to drink tea when you
prefer coffee, so there is no law
which can compel you to smoke
non-union cigars when you prefer

Mr.. Union Bricklaycr, you can
not consistently ask the union cigar
maker to protest against non-union
contractors when you smoke and
chew non-union tobacco.
Mr.. Union Carpenter. you are in
consistent in protesting against
non-union contractors when you
wear nou-union hats, non-union
clothes, non-union shoes and non
union shirts and collars.
But union goods cost MORE"
you say.
What Of ii? Who keeps your
wages up but union labor? Isyour
idea of unionism comprised only in
securing high wages for yourself?
If you wear non-union hats you en-
courage the hat manufacturers to
cut wages so as to meet the non-un-
ion product. That means that the
hat-makers will have to live in
cheaper houses and have less money
to spend. If you do not patronize

Our idea is supplemented by the
following from the indianapolis
union:
incidentally it might be re-
marked that, while the decision Of
the appellate court of the District
of Columbia modifies the decision
of the lower court in the Gompers
injunction and to degree makes
the dissemination of news regarding
labor troubles permissible, there
never has been a time that labor
has been enjoined from using its
one best weapon of defense, the
label.
cit is somewhat distressing to
hear one talk in belligerent manner
of the invasion of the rights of la.
Dor by the judiciary and know that
this bellicose radical is clothed with
the product of non-unionism.
Judge Gould is not the menace
to the trade union movement that
is the member who is so little i'm
pregnated with the virus Of the
movement that he can patronize the
product of those with whom he is
contending.

which the race feeling is SO wide
spread and acute as to interfere

the local government business can
be done by the appointee, is of suffi-
cient benefit by way of encourage
ment to the race to outweigh the re-
currence and increase of race feel
ing which such an appointment is
likely to engender. Therefore, the
Executive, in racogni..I., the negro

a careful discretion not thereby to
do it more harm than good. On the

to encourage the mere pretense of
