The TROUBLE AT LAWRENCE.

The hfty-four hour law is at the
bottom of all the trouble in Lawrence,
Mass, and the erd is not in sight.
The difficulty is over new hour
scale. The employers cannot see why
they should pay the same wages for
"A hours work as for SO and state In
addition that they cannot afford to
do so. The employees hold that their
wages should not be reduced in con-
nection with the reduction in working
hours. Hence thc thousands out of
work and the strike riots.
The strike epidemic seems TO be on
in full force and with its usual re-
quits. The trouble at Lawrence
threatens to paralyze the woolien in
dustry in that city and the difficulty
may spread to the other textile CEN
tcrs. In Boston the longshoremen are
out seeking thus to force to adjust
ment Of q wage dispute. Recently the
shipping of England was tied up by
similar strike and at the present
time Buenos Aires presents a parallel
condition. In England the cotton in
dustry is suffering severely and there
are thousands and thousands of un-
employed because two employees stood
upon their rights and refused to join
union.
A few years ago the public sym
pathy to a large extent was with
| strikers but this sentiment has
changed for the public has gradually
! come to a realizing sense that when
strikes occur it is placed between the
upper and the neither milestone. If
the shipping industry, the cotton In
dustry, the wooden industry or public
utility corporations are rendered stag
naut because of the difficulties OF
employers and employees, the public
suffers. These Labor troubles are q
great factor in the increase in the
cost of living, and factor in more
ways than one.
4 shortening of the hours of labor
means less production and conse'
qucntly II higher price for the product
Again we find that the public ulti'
mately pays for the cost of strike
Union men assist in contributions fol
the strikers, municipalities are called
upon to assist people out of work who
are unable to care for themselves. Or
the other hand the loss that comes t'
the corporation is often ultimatel!
placed upon the public although the!
may not realize ii directly.
These facts are becoming more an'
more apparent to the public. No ON
denies the right of men to refuse Il
labor for wages that they do not deen
commensurate but when they attemp
to use force to prevent others from
accepting that labor the situation as
sumcs an entirely different phase.

THIMBLEBERRY
REGULATION SIGNED

The Governor this morning signed
the regulation passed by the Board of
Agriculture and Forestry in connec-
ton with the taking of thimbleberries
from one part of the Territory to an
other.
The regulations are very strict in
view of the fact that the plant is like
ly to become n pest. When the mat
ter first came up II was proposed to
only prohibit the transportation OF
plants but later II was arranged that
no one should be allowed to take
seeds, This now makes 1t a strict
measure that SHOULD prevent the
spread of the pest.

Washington. March s-President Tatt has taken the initiative in movement 10 bring business men of the country into touch with the government for advice and counsel in the administration of laws, the enactment of new statutes and the deYe- opment of commerce.

1000 Invitations Sent

Invitations have already been sent to 1000 local chambers of commerce. boards of trade and other commercial bodies. Re- sponses to the announcement of the tenta- tive plan have been such that President Taft is convinced the time is ripe for put ting the proposal to the test of practical experiment
 The President really first recommended such plan in a message to Congress last December, in which he suggested that officials of the department of commerce and labor and members of appropriate congressional committees might be made members ex-officio of such an associa- tion.
 In a statement made public today Presi- dent Taft outlines the purposes of such an organization. It would give to the government the opportunity to consult the business world on all questions of trade supremacy, it would afford co-opera- tion in. the expansion of commerce at home and abroad and would provide a means by which government officials charged with the enforcement of laws could become acquainted with the com plcities which surround their administra- ton in the business world Further than that, Congress, in framing new statutes affecting trade and commerce, would have first hand advice of an official nature,
 In some respects the plan would not be UT like the German governments system Of cooperation with boards of trade throughout the German states, although many of the features of that system would not be applicable here.
