CANADA's ANTI-sTRIKE LAW.
Provisions of an Act That Is Roth
Practical and Popular.

Provisions of nm Act That Is Roth
Practical and Popular.
Friendly settlements of labor dis
putes involving $1,000 workmen and
effecting a saving in wages alone of
more than S 100000 are evidence that
the Canadian Observation-Disclosures act
works. The act provides, says Leslie's
Weekly, that it shall be illegal for en-
ployes of a public utility or a mine
to strike or for the employers to or
der a lockout until the issue involved
shall have been investigated by a
board, on each of which the disputant
bodies shall have a representative and
which shall be headed by an impartial
third. Should the board fail to effect
AM amicable settlement it at once
makes a public report, in which tho
issues are made known in plain Ian.
guage. After that they nay strike if
they wish. In those stubborn cases
where an agreement is difficult 10
reach, public opinion is relied upon to
compel an equitable settlement. In
this respect the Canadian law differs
from the compulsory arbitration Of
New Zealand, where the findings of
the arbiters are enforceable AT law.
Without this compulsory feature, how
ever, the Canadian method works adj
mirably, for in s~eventy-four of the
eighty cases thus far, Or 50 per cent,
the wcrkingmen were agreeable to ac-
cepting the findings of che board and
did not strike afterward, though at
perfect liberty to do 50. At present
the act applies only to Industries in
the nature of public utilities-rail-
ways, telegraphs, telephones, mines,
e,c.-but so popular has it become
with both labor and capital that It u
now proposed to extend it to other
industries.
How long shall we have to wait be-
fore our OWE country grapples the
strike evil and adopts some such
method of dealing with it? Under a
law similar to the Canadian act the
great Philadelphia strike would have
been practically impossible. After
eight weary weeks of riot and blood
shed /. was at last called of, leaving
the traction company and the strikers

Oregon in Turmoil.

The political situation in oregon is
already very interesting, but it prom
ises to be much more so after the state
assembly of republicans meets today.
The purpose of the assembly is to
formulate and adopt party platform
and to recommend to the republican
voters of the state q ticket for state,
congressional and judicial officers to
be nominated at the September pri-
maries.
Those responsible for the assem-
bly," plan confidently declare that
every county of the state will be repre-
scented at today's gathering. They
declare, furthermore, that the assem-
bly, will be representative of the re-
publican party of Oregon in every
sense of. the word and that the ticket
recommended by the assembly will I'M
doubtedly be nominated at the pri-
maries.
Despite these declarations a strong
opposition to the assembly undeniably
exists among many influential repub-
lican leaders throughout the state.
They declare that the whole scheme
is contrary to the spirit and intention
of the direct primary law and is a bare
faced attempt on the part of the fac
ton led by former Senator Joseph
Aimon to maintain control of the party
machinery and defeat the will of the
rank and file of Oregon republicans.
Interest in the situation is height
ened by the fact that Oregon this year
elects a complete set of state officers
from governor down. together with
four judges of the supreme court, rep
resentatives in congress and members
of the legislature.

Lowers the Cost.

A manufacturer who has made a
reputation and a fortune through adj
vertising, says in letter to The
Fourth Estate: THE consumer of any
article always bears two distinct items
of cost when he buys it. The first of
these is the cost of production. The
second is the cost of getting it from
the producer to the consumer"
Advertising, instead Of increasing
prices, as the Lodge committee of the
senate is seeking to draw a red her
ring across the trail of the tariff, de-
clared, reduces both these items of
cost. By creating an enlarged market
it facilitates production on a large
scale, which is always more ecCnomi-
cal than production on a small scale.
And it is invariably the most inexpen-
sive method of transferring commodi-
ties from the maker to the user.
Intelligent newspaper readers clear
ly understand these facts.

into the quarrel between Garfield and
Conkling- 1t was after delivering an
address at Warren that General Grant
insisted that he and Cohkling call upon
General Garfield at Mentor. The late
Senator Simon Cameron arranged the
meeting. He had personally warned
Garfield that he could not be elected
unless Grant and Conkling were with
him. Garfield instructed Cameron to
go to Warren and urge Conkling to
visit him. Conkling pleaded that Men
tor was too far away, and urged that
he must continue without hindrance
to fulfill his contract to speak for the
ticket. Cameron secured a special
train and put Grant and ConkIing
aboard it. The party arrived at Mem

TURN OVER TIME

When Nature Hints About the Food.
When there's no relish to any
| food and all that one eats doesn't
seem to do any good then is the time
to make a turn over in the diet, for
that's natures way of dropping a
hint that the food isn't the kind re-
quired.
For a number of years l followed
railroad work, much of it being Of
flee work of trying nature. Meal
times were our busiest and eating
such as is commonly served in hotels
and restaurants. these together with
the sedentary habits, were not long
in giving me dyspepsia and stomach
trouble which reduced my weight
from EOS to $50 pounds.
There was little relish in any
food and none of it seemed to do
me any good. 1t seemed the more
ate the poorer / got and was al
ways huagry before another meal, no
matter how much 1 had eaten.
Then 1 commenced a fair trial
of Grape-Nuts food, and was sur
prised how a small saucer of it would
carry me along, strong and with sat
isfied appetite, until the next meal,
with no sensations of hunger, weak
ness or distress as before.
81 have been following this diet
now for several months and my i'm
provement has been so great all the
others in my family have taken up
the use of Grape-Nuts With complete
satisfaction and much improvement
!
American people undoubtedly eat
hurriedly, have lots of worry. thus
hindering digestion and therefore
need a food that is predigested and
concentrated in nourishment."
