Some complaint has come regarding
the giving of half the road in case Of
an automobile coming up behind a
team. The parties claim that when
they come up behind fellow with a
team he stubbornly refuses to give any
OF the road, no matter il there is plenty
OF room to turn out. Now the law re-
cognizes the rights of both the man
with the team and the man with auto,
and these rights should be respected,
There are plenty OF men who are run
ming autos who should be driving OK
teams and vice versa, but all men
should not be treated that way. The
law says that when man is overtaken
by faster vehicle, the man driving
the slo Eer vehicle shall turn out and
give hslf of the beaten path.

thing to say about the i:n. r.v.I con
ditions of labor in the anthrari q fields

hours, insanitary conditions and in
adequate wages, and today he works
under conditions of safety, convenience
and comfort undreamed of genera
ton ago.
at is a matter of qualification to be
able to say that the conditions sur
rounding this class of workers have
greatly Improved Ill lne ldSJ ueCdue.
In addition to the more intelligent and
efficient operation of the mines and
the consequent betterment in the phys
zeal conditions, there have been grad
ual decrease in the hours of labor and
an increase in the amount of wages
paid.
THE greatest gain, however, has
been brought about by the wise and
humane legislation regulating the ages
of the workers. Years ago little chill
dren not more than eight or nine years
of age were allowed and in many cases
obliged to work about the mines, but
owing to enlightened public sentiment
that has always opposed the employ
ment of children of tender years In In
dustrial work and to the more thought
full and sensible attitude of the OPP
orators the age limit has from year to
year been increased until today no
child under fourteen years of age can
be employed at any work whatever
about the mines, and as rule few
children under sixteen years of age are
employed inside the mines"

Behind the World.

We are, says the Cleveland Leader,
at least fifty years behind Germany.
Germany, like England and most of
the other European nations, has a
workman's compensation law. BY that
is meant law which absolutely fixes
the liability of the employer to his EN-
ployee in every case of personal in
jury, no matter who is at fault, and
which automatically pays to the EN-
ployee or his family certain, definite
and Just sum, depending upon the seri-
BUSINESS of the injury, the period of
incapacity, etc. The compensation is
paid In every case of accident. 1t Is
paid promptly. The whole amount
paid goes to the workman or his de-
pendents No lawyers are necessary
1t is paid through the government
postal department, thus insuring the
safety of the fund and promptness In
payment of all claims.

wage Garner must submit to the rul-
ings Of his employer and at the same
time meet the fierce competition Of
other wOrkmen. In short, 1t means
dependence, weakness, poverty. Under
such conditions labor Is limited to the
strike and boycott as means or instru-
ments for defending its just claims.
But the union shop eliminates cut
throat competition, places capital and
labor upon an equal footing, and to
the wageworkers it brings independ-
ence, strength, prosperity These are
valuable assets to any class. Com
plete organization adds to the poten-
TALLY of the unions. increases their
power for regulating conditions of
work, gives deliniteness and concrete
ness to their aims and remunerates
concerted action with visible and tan
gible returns. And not until both cap.
ital and labor are strong enough to
command the respect of the other can
arbitration be substituted for conten-
tion and negotiation for strife. But
with capital strongly organized and
labor united under a democratic fed
GRAFTON the two can then meet upon
common grounds and settle their dis
putes without violence or without do
ing hurt to either side.
The whole argument for the union
shop clusters about the one question,
Who shall control labor-shall it be
in the hands of the employers or shall
the laborers control themselves? Be.
cause a man is a laborer he is no less
fit to be free. Honest work Is no bar
to industrial citizenship. Because a
man is a wage Garner he is no less a
Patriot. No country can be free which
allows its workmen, the men who sup
port it, to be oppressed. No class in
civilized society can be free in which
the principle of absolute individualtsm
is the basis of action. Every workman
is a vital part of the wage earning
class, and the good of the whole de-
mands that he shall act in harmony
with his organic RELATIONSHIP. p. Sta

UNION PRESSMEN'S HOME.
Another Noble Charity to the Credit of
Organized labor.

The International Printing Press

useful institutions of it's kind in the
world 1t is located at Rogersville.

been known for over fifty years as the
Halesprings health resort, and is only

This location was selected because
dry altitude, which always gives the
best promise of permanent cures of
tuberculosis and kindred diseases and
escape from the bad effects of return
ing to a lower and more humid at
mosphere after treatment.
The plan of the institution includes
a sanitarium for the treatment and
cure of tuberculosis, home for SUI
perannuated members, technical
trade school for the teaching of press
work and many other features of abb
sorbing human interest. The approx
innate cost of the plant, embracing ev-
erything required to make it first class
in every respect, is conservatively es-
timated at $125,OOO, and this covers
the cost of the $40 acres of fine farm
ing land on which the institution is to
be conducted.
The whole esta blishment will be sup
ported by per capita tax on the
members of the unions affiliated with
the international union, although many
private donations have already been
received to aid in founding it and car
rying it on. The promoters of the
project have gone about their work
wisely, taking advantage of the ex-
perience of other organizations in SIM
liar enterprises, and they will undoubt-
eddy reach the very summit of excel
lence for the present day.

WAGES FOR CONVICTS.
New Jersey Commissioner Would Pay
Prisoners For Work.

Prisoners For Work.
sioner of charities and corrections, de-
clares that convicts should receive
wages for the work they do In the New
Jersey state prison. In his annual re-
port he recommends that they receive
4 certain sum daily and that this should
be either sent to their families or put
in savings banks for them.
In discussing the charitable and Pc
nal institutions of New Jersey DR..
Wight says:
"In common, think, with the major
ity of our citizens, | believe that in
mates of penal institutions should, so
far as health and age permit, be given
suitable employment to assist in their
maintenance and the convict placed
upon such remuneration work as will
pay his board and the cost of his con-
viction.
"In a number of states the prisoners
earnings bring to their treasures large
sums of money, sufficient in two in
stances, am Informed, to pay not only
all the current expenses of the institu-
lions, but to erect new buildings. l do
not cite these as examples, for l do not
believe that our penal institutions
should be for commercial purposes, but
| do not believe in the steady employ
ment of the prisoner for compensation.
Idleness will not aid in his reformation
nor improve his physical condition, nor
will it help the family he has left be-
hind, deprived of his support.
"While In prison he should be re-
quired to earn his board and fixed
sum as to the cost of his conviction,
and with that the state should be con
tent. All that he earns in excess of
this should be applied to the support
of his family, if he has one, under
such conditions and in such manner
as may be determined, and If he has
no family worthy of his support his
earnings should be placed in the saw
ings bank to be paid him upon his re-
lease, in monthly installments If deem
ed best, that he may have a fair
chance to earn an honest livelihood"
