Washington, ID. c., Feb. 23.-If the
wishes of the new assistant secretary
of the treasury, c. D. Norton, are car
ried out it is claimed that a saw
ing of one million dollars a year

and new methods to eliminate all useless
work in the department and thus save
approximately 81, 600 a year in op-
Grating expenses.
The treasury department transacts a

Final Remarks.

Washington, Feb. "a question that is
agitating the Senate is whether Colonel
Gordon, retiring Senator from Mississippi.
will be permitted to deliver a farewell ad-
dress to that body.
Senator Gordon said that il was his de-
sire to say a few words before retiring,
but unforeseen complications, in the shape
of the election of a successor, have arisen
to prevent.
Some Senators held that, now that Mr.
Percy has been elected, Mr.. Gordon is
without rights in that body. Others con-
tend that he is entitled to hold his seat
until the certificate Of Mr.. Percy's cleo
ton is presented.
Senator Gordon today was awarded the
high distinction of being invited by the
Vice President to preside over the Senate
Mr.. Gordon occupied the chair for almost
an hour.

CHINESE SOLDIERS
ENTER ANCIENT CITY
Lama of Thibet a Fugitive and the
Oriental Pope No Longer
Recognized.

Calcutta, British India, Feb. 23.-Chi-
nese troops today entered THassa, the
capital Of Thibet and the residence Of
the dalai lama, the supreme head of
the Lamaist hierarchy, VINO upon the
approach of the soldiers fled with sew
eTal of his ministers into India.
Serious trouble has been anticipated
owing to the action of the small Chi
nese army, which, marching from SEE
Chuen, China, subdUed Eastern Thibet,
levying contributions on the lama
home and showing no respect for the
mOnasteTies.
The Thibetans, Tesenting the deseCra-
ton of their holy places. petitioned the
Chinese foreign board, praying that the
emperor Of China interfere in the in
teTeSts of the Buddhists. The petition
was disregarded, as the Chinese propose
TO make the administration of the COun-
try purely Chinese.
The dalai lama appealed to Lord Min
TO, the viceTOy of India, but the latter
refused to intervene. When the Chinese
troops were reported as moving from
the province of Khan ostensibly to
strengthen the garrison at THassa, the
lama hastily quilted the capital and
proceeded toward DaTjiling.

LABEL LEAGUE.

At the meeting of Feb. IS of the
League the most important business
transacted was the election of the new
officers created by the League in its re-
vision of the constitution and bylaws. A
very large attendance was present and
much interest shown. The newly-elected
officers were as follows:
Secretary-Treasurer- j. Hines,
Typographical
Editor and Manager of The United La
Dor BulIetin-James A. Conkle, Typo
graphical.
Subscription Solicitor-Chas. A Spen-
Ger, Cement Workers.
Secretary Complaint Department
Geo. Allen, Typographical
Reading Clerk-Stanley Edwards Ma
chnists.
l.. B. Beuter of the Walters was elected
l.. b. Bueter of the Walters was elected
mittee.
j. C. Cutler of the Union Labor
hospital gave a short talk on the future
plans of the Union hospital, stating that
building was soon to be erected. He
also said that owing to the poor support
given the hospital by union men they
were compelled to take in members out
side the ranks of organized labor.
The Walters delegate, in his report,
stated that in their endeavor to sign up
certain restaurants they were met with
the statements from proprietors that
there was no need of unionizing their
places as very nearly all their patrons
were union men anyway. The delegate
asked that all union men look for the
card before patronizing a restaurant.
Other delegates reported along similar
lines and all reports show thai greater
interest is being taken in the label by
union men and women.
With the election of the above-named
new officers the League is in position
to create greater enthusiasm and en-
courage among organized labor more
persistent demand for the label.
The Walters Union has donated a box
to the League to be used by the Com
plant department. 1t will be placed on
one of the floors of the Club building and
all complaints against union men patron
izing nonunion places are to be put in 1t.
This department of the League has
started out with a determination to &C
complish things and we look for results
in very short time.
At late hour, after much business
had been transacted, the League ad-
journed.
United labor bulletin. (Denver, Colo.) 19??-1915, 1910-02-25

ranks and organize. If they violate the
principles of unionism by leaving the
ranks they do not deserve to prevail.
Other illustrations could be given of
factional strife injurious to the labor
movement, such as the split in the Build
ing Trades Council in Denver, but that
controversy is too well-known to dwell on
here.
Every movement towards one means
concentration of power and makes for
success. Every movement away from one
means dissipation of power and makes
for failure.
If capital does all the uniting, consoli-
dating and concentrating, and labor does
all the dividing and quarreling the GER
tain result must be the future aggrand-
| izement of capital and the enslavement
of labor.
| If the wage-earners will learn this one
lesson from the experience of 1909 their
chances of betterment in 1910 will be
vastly improved.
The captains of industry are so few in
comparison with the thousands of union
men that organization of capital is made
comparatively easy; wherefore, we say
organize. educate and consolidate, for ii
is a herculean task, and the workers
must be ever moving forward.
