OLD DISPUTE
CAUSING WAR

LIMA Peru, December S.-Yester-
day, word was received here of an in
vasion of Peruvian soil by Bolivians,
which made an attack upon Peruvian
frontier post. The news has created
the greatest excitement and is regar-
ded by the populace as a declaration
of war on the part of the eastern Re-
public. The president and his cabin
ct are awaiting detailed information
before making any public declara-
tions in the matter, but orders have
been issued to the department COM
manders of troops to hold themselves
in readiness.
Details of the Bolivian invasion are
to the effect that a strong force of
regular Bolivian troops crossed the
border north Of Lake Tlticaca, and
surprised the garrison stationed at
Guayabal.
The Peruvian commander, although
taken by surprise, refused to surren-
der, and a desperate defense was
made by the garrison.
Many were killed and wounded on
both sides before the Peruvians had
to give. in to the superior force of the
invaders.

For over year Bolivia and Peru
have been at odds over the question
of disputed boundary, while Peru
has had, at the same time, a bound
airy dispute of Ecuador. The situation
grew acute in April last, and for
time it appeared that war was about
to break out between Peru on one
side and Ecuador, Bolivia and Chile
on the other. The boundary disputes
date back to the time OF the Spanish
possessions of the country and once.
a few years ago, the whole matter
was left to the arbitration of the King
of Spain. Alfonso, after a long and
arduous search of the Spanish arch
ives, gave his decision in favor of Pc
ru, whereupon Ecuador and Bolivia
promptly announced that they would
not abide by his award. In April last
there were anti Peruvian demonstra-
lions in Ecuador, Bolivia and Chile,
the Peruvian consulates being mob
bed, and in some cases destroyed.
Popular passions were aroused in all
four countries almost to the war
point.
Should Peru have to go to war, the
affair will be of decided interest 10
the majority of people in Hawaii, as
the Peruvian army may be augment
ed through the volunteering of the
several thousand Japanese in thai
country, who offered their services Il
the government some months ago
Many of these Japanese are veterans
of the Russo Japanese war.

by Chicago correspondent of the Typo

Two years ago these people were de-

youths and girls would be turned into

The last meeting has demonstrated the
capacity of organized labor to look after
its own-that is, when organized labor
wakes up. AT the Hot Springs conven-

the commission was authorized, the dele

LIVING WAGE.
(By Rev. Chas. Stelzle.)

(By Rev Chas Stelzle)
The old man asked our business agent
one day: How much wages would sat
isfy you. anyway? If l should get you
the advance that you are asking, you'd
come around again in a little while ask
ing for more"
The walking delegate didn't deny it..
and he was right. Perhaps you've MOTTO
ed that as a rule, the worst strikes are
engaged in not by the men working for
the lowest wages, but by those who are
getting the biggest money. There is no
particular point at which We'll promise
to stop asking for more, because that
sort of thing is too mechanical. Wages
don't represent fixed value. If they
did, that would help. There are men in
New York getting three dollars day,
while in the West the same men could
get four for the same amount and kind
of work. The cost of living makes some
difference, but the method of living has
also lot to do with it.
We live very much better, in some
ways, than our forefathers did. Some OIL
us have organs and pianos in our homes,
and some other things which are in com
mon use, that must have been luXuries
not many years ago. 1t is not a ques-
ton, however, as to whether or not we
are living better than the folks who were
satisfied with less, a hundred years ago.
The world has moved along since those
days, and we're going to keep up with
the procession-if we can.
While American workingmen produce
more than the worllingmen of other coun-
tries, and while they receive higher
wages, they are actually paid less in pro-
portion to what they produce, than is
paid these workngmen in foreign lands.
At any rate, that's what United States
government reports tell us.
1t isn't up to the workingman, particu-
larly. to lay out a scheme that will solve
the wage question. He may be compelled
have it in cther power to hire the men
who could do much towards solving it.,
if they would. They know good many
things about business affairs that the
workingman doesn't know, but which he
must know if he's to give the world a
fair solution of the wage question.
A living wage doesn't mean exactly
the same thing to any two men. My civ
ing wage" wouldn't satisfy the super nor
the old man, because they've higher
standard than have. For some men to
live" means summer homes and Eu-
ropean trips, besides a lot of other stuff

ton of Industrial Education offers II
striking example of the growing influ-
ence of organized labor in its peculiar
field. The society held its third annual
convention in Milwaukee, on December
and 4. A number of unionists spoke,
and almost every other speaker showed
he recognized the important part that or
ganized labor is destined to play in the
development of the new educational era
So generally was this theme dwelt on
that the speaker who failed to refer to
it produced the impression that he was
looking at his subject from narrow
point of view or was emitting in the con-
sideration a most important element
The principal exhibit of the l. T. U.
Commission was on display; 1t was the
center of attraction among twenty-odd
schools. All in all, trade unionism was
a feature of the convention.
This is marked change from the first
meeting of the National Society. which
was held in Chicago two years ago. Then
Van Cleave and other firebrands of the
employing class were to the fore with
their usual denunciation of unions-this
time 1t was for destroying the apprentice
ship system and opposing education. The

GIRLS ARE SUCKERS.

The following is from the publicity
League of Greater New York:
All organized women should join in
congratulations to the hat trimmers of
Newark. At the close of the ninth month
of their long strike three factories have
opened under union conditions, and now
1t is only question of few weeks
when the remaining five will follow their
example. 1t has been a hard struggle.
Last January 10000 men and women re-
fused to make hats without the union
label. There was suffering among the
ranks of this little army. Yet they stood
firm. In June the Hatters Association
began to weaken. Brooklyn and New
York factories opened under fair condi-
tions, then the Danbury and Orange.
Only Newark, that stronghold of the Hat
ters' Association, refused to use the
label, the unions only guarantee of fair
conditions. Now Newark shows signs OF
coming around
The hat trimmers are also to be con
graduated on the splendid way they have
stood together. Out OF a membership OF
400 only nine have left the union, ana
three of these backsliders are daughters
of Bosses Every inducement has been
offered to these 400 brave girls. AS the
long months passed and work elsewhere
grew scarce the temptation to accept the

SHOULD RESPECT THE LABEL.

When the wife OF a union man goes
through her husbands clothes in per
forming her regular touching ceremony
she should respect the label. If she
finds one in his clothes, she should go
easy and at least give her spouse an even
break If no label she should take
everything in sight and spend it for label
goods.-Western Laborer.
AS women are the buyers for their
families, they are therefore the employ
ers. So If woman demands the union
labels on whatever goods she buys. she
forces the shopkeepers to purchase union
label goods and employ union workmen.
In this way she prevents the horrors of
the sweatshop and child labor, and bene-
fits the situation for every one concerned.
Cheap labor means poverty and degra-
dation for the masses of the people. 1t
means low prices for the products of the
farm and factory. The consuming power
of the people is measured by their earn
ings and cheap labor means the lessen
ing of their purchases. The sooner the
retail merchant looks at these facts in
the right way the better off he will be
both in the sale of factory and farm
products.

Labor has reason to be thankful that
1t has at least one law on the statute
books of this country which has stood the
test of the courts. The Maryland Court
of Appeals decided that the existing law
forbidding the employment of children
under IL years of age is constitutional
and must be lived up to. The act was
contested because it apparently exempted
the Gamers of the state, but the court
decided that the Legislature apparently
had good reason for SO enacting the
measure and that it should stand. We
