NEW FACTORY INSPECTOR.
A Change will be Made in IT'S Local
Office Durinq the Conrinu Month.

A Change will be Made in IT'S Local
Office During the Coming Month.
There is to be a change in the po-
sition of local factory inspector for
Stark County sometime during May.
1t is the belief of many that the
position heretofore has simply been
an adjunct to the republican party,
and seemingly operated solely in the
interest of a few favorites who pro-
fess to carry the labor vote around
in their vest pockets.
There are number of applicants
for the position and even the present
incumbent believes he has a chance
for re-appointment but it is our be-
lief that the place will 90 to a
gentleman, who is recognized as an
able and efficient man, and one that
would be eminently fair to both en-
ployer and employe.
Stark county presents a good field
for the display of intelligence in the
conduct OF the office of inspector.
The large number of factories and
the diversified interests involved
calls for an exercise of plain common
sense distributed without fear or
favor.

ATTACKS UNION LABELS.

On page 221 of the new tariff bill
Is found the following: None of the
packages of smoking tobacco and fine
cut chewing tobacco and cigarettes
prescribed by law shall be permitted
to have packed in, or attached to, or
connected with, them any article or
thing whatsoever, other than the
manufacturers wrappers and labels"
This section is aimed at union la
Dor, and if passed will put the To
bacco Workers union out of exist
ence. 1t will also hurt the organ
lied workers in the printing indus
try, and leave the tobacco trust,
solidly opposed to trades unionism,
in complete possession of the field,
thanks to the men we voted for last
TALL
Another interesting provision is
the denial of manufacturer to en-
close prize coupons in his packages,
which, however, can be evaded by
cutting the face" of the package
and using it as a coupon. This plan
is followed now. But the anti-union
label provision remains intact, and,
if passed. sounds the death knell to
an organization whose life depends
on the label, and who will be de-
barred from putting it on packages,
not to mention the thousands of dol
lars worth of printing that can be
thrown into low.wage shops.
The next move will be to prohibit
the placing of union labels on cigar
boxes.
When will workers realize the
forces lined up against them, and
when will alleged labor leaders"
wake up to these deadly attacks, in
stead of frittering away magnificent
opportunities over little things?

A Sweeping Injunction.

Judge Julian w. Mack in the Chi

sued blanket injunction against the
Associated Building Trades at the
request of the Chicago Mosaic &
Tiling Co. and Is other concerns.
The Judge considered the still fur
ther extension of his order to pre-
vent any union organization or Off
cials from leyying any fine against
members who might refuse to obey
strike orders or other orders issued
by labor officials. 1t was finally con-
eluded, however, that no ruling of
any sort by supreme court as yet
offered precedent for such order.
and the clause was stricken from the
wri|.
The order specifically forlids any
attempt to induce other firms or in
dividuals to refuse to furnish ma
terial or labor to the employers
whose men are on strike, or calling
upon any employees for the purpose
OF inducing them to leave the EN-.
ploy OF the complainants.

Now if perchance saloon-keeper
or brewer here or there may have
been the cause of a falling off in the
morals of certain people is no reason
why the great majority of those en-
gagged in that business should be- de-

men have devoted the major portion
of their lives In making themselves
proficient in those particular trades

now in the declining days of their

with their younger brethren in the

BIG WAGE CUT PUT IN FORCE

The reduction in the wages of steel
ing touches and the lower wage
scales went into effect April 2. The
cut amounts to from 10 to 20 per
cent, and affects about $4,000 en-
ployes. Depression in business, due
to fear of reduction in the tariff, and
lower prices of steel products, are
given as the cause.
The United States Steel Corpora
ton has not yet announced its atti-
tude in regard to a reduction in the
wages of employees, and E. H. Gary,
chairman, says the matter has not
considered. A cut has been announc-
ed by nearly every other steel con-
cern in the country both great and
small.
Independents Cut Wages.
A most important cut was made by
the Jones & Laughlin company, the
largest Independent steel company
in the country. 1t went into effect
April 3, and, while the amount is not
announced, it is anticipated it will be
from 10 to 20 per cent, and apply to
all but tonnage men.
About 1000 men are affected, and.
as in normal times the concern en-
ploys about 5000 it is inferred that
the plant has been operating at rath-
er less than half capacity.
Other cuts announced by the Shen-
ange Furnace company, which takes
10 per cent of the pay of its 600 en-
ployes, and by w. P. Snyder & Co.,
the largest Independent furnacemen
in the valley region, who reduce
their laborers from $1G5 to $1.iO a
day.
The Republic Iron and Steel Com
pany, which announced 10 per cent
wage cut for its 1900 employees a
week ago, put it's new schedule into
effect April 2.
Small Fry Follow Suit.
A policy of wage readjustment was
naugurated by the Lackawanna Steel
Company only few days after the
open market declared. Shortly after
ward the Pennsylvania Steel Com
pany announced a cut. The example
of the big concerns has been fol-
lowed by many little fellows.

ty having voted dry. II is time the
voters of the various counties of Ohio
awaken to the utter destruction we
are rushing into by putting damp
er on the further encroachment of
this wave of destruction. One meth
cd of the so-called reformer may
bear mentioning in this connection,
and that is the coercion practised in
some instances on the employer and
through him on the employees. This
fact came to light in the strike of the
employees at the Selby Shoe plant at
Portsmouth, Ohio, which was caused
by a reduction of from 20 to 25 per
cent in wages. During the option
campaign there, the heads of the
firm were active in the dry move
ment, suggesting to their employees
that when the county went dry, their
savings would increase a hundred
fold, due to the absence of the sa-
loon. Just as soon as the county
went dry, the above cut in wages
was inaugurated This scheme as was
afterward learned, had been sug-
gested by the dry" campaigners
prominent among whom was Judge
Blair who also fastened to enjoin the
striking shoe workers from interfer-
ing with the above firms business.
So we will notice that besides
helping to increase the number of
unemployed by wiping out a legiti-
mate business, the so-called reform
ers are working hand in hand with
unscupulous employers and willing
judges to put the worker on the
plane with the pauper and wreck his
chances for advancement by destroy
ing organization. 1t is time for us
to awaken to the fact that we are
again confronted with "a wolf in
sleeps clothes"

BIG WASTE OF MONEY.

That $4,000 has been the cost of
the long and practically fruitless in
vestigation of the Chicago packers
by the federal grand jury is the au-
thoritative information obtained.
The inquisitorial body has been
at work since December IA of last
year. Besides the inquiry as to the
acceptance of rebates by certain of
the beef packers, peonage charges
made by the local Socialist press and
involving the industrial town of Argo
have been reviewed and a search for
illegal acts by railroads also has
been conducted.
The letter of Attorney General
George w. Wickersham to Morris &
Co. officially announcing the aband-
onment of the inquiry into the af
fairs of Packington, shows the bulk
of the labors of the district attor-
ney's office and of the grand jury to
have been without result.
That similar action will be taken
by the department of justice re-
garding the other cases before the
jury is almost a certainty.
When the grand jury reconvenes
on April 81 next, according to re-
liable advices, it will report relative
ly unimportant true bills to Judge
Lands, and thereupon will be ex-
cuseJ.
About the only tangible result of
the Investigations has been the i'm
provement of the conditions under
which the men employed by the Corn
Products Company at Argo work.

good people who have taken it upon
themselves TO work out the dismoral

have been overlooked entirely the
welfare of the worker Just now it

doing so whether Intentionally or
otherwise, they are making labor in
general bear the brunt of the bur-
den and are in particular striking
telling blow at organized labor which
