EASILY EXPLAINED.
Why Union Men Object to Working
With the Nonunionist.

Why Union Men Object to Working
With the Nonunionist.
1t has often been said by critics of
trade unionists, "Why should union
men object to work with nonunion
men? If man does not choose to
join a union surely he is only eXereis-
ing the liberty of the subject, and his
union comrades have no right to object
to him"
But they have every right that rea-
son and justice can give for their OBJ
lection, says the Duluth Labor World.
The union man is making great sacri-
fees In order to obtain what he consid-
ers his rights The nonunion man Is
reaping all the advantages without
any OF the trouble. The nniou man
binds himself with his fellows against
the aggressive greed of the employers
of labor and is giving both time and
money to the cause he has at heart
His union has to be maintained ana
kept working by the subscriptions of
the members, and each Of the mem
bers gives his time to the meetings
sometimes to a great extent by serving
on committees, etc. He is struggling
hard, no matter what it costs, to Sc
cure to himself, and not only to him
self, but to his fellow men, just remu-
neration for their toll, and If goaded
by injustces and oppressed with
wrong, he, tn agreement with this com
bination of his fellow workmen, re
fuses to work at the terms offered by
his employer, he suffers and starves
that all may reap the benefit

PLACID CHINESE WOMEN.

An illustration OF FoW well heir
Emotions Are Hidden.
"Chinese women are trained to show
no emotion, to appear absolutely placid
under all circumstances says Eliza
beth Cooper. author Of My Lady of
the Chinese Courtyard Il saw it IL
Illustrated at a reception given to the
wife of one of the high Chinese Off
cials. All the women of the foreign
official colony were at my home, about
forty IN number, and the great lady
was announced. Every one rose. The
room was a very long one, about sew
enty-five feet and had a very highly
polished floor covered with Persian
rugs.
THE Chinese lady came to the door
way, with a servant ON each side of
her to help her walk upon her tiny
bound feet. At the entrance they left
her, and she started to come to me;
but, being almost helpless upon her
golden lilies, she stepped upon a rug,
which Slid upon the polished floor. and
instead of swaying like the bamboo in
the breeze as she came to me she sat
down suddenly and Slid to my feet to
the CONSERVATION and horror of the as
sembled guests
She was raised to her feet, and, al
though she must have been covered
with confusion and embarrassment
thus to make her first entrance into a
foreign home, she gave her hand to me
without a trace Of emotion visible in
her face or manner, nor did she apollo
gize. One would think by her appear
ance that it was the usual mode Of en-
trance into a room"

Married the pay They Met.

Horace Greeley and Mary Young
Cheney were married the first day they
met, They had corresponded for some
time, a common friend who was some
thing of a matchmaker having brought
this about. She was all his fancy paint

in his appearance, so much so that
when he appeared before her, having
proposed and been accepted by letter,
she frankly told him that, although she
married him, she was not in love with
him. Their married life was long and
happy, and the loss of his wife was a
blow which Greeley did not long sur

PROFIT SHARING.

The trouble with profit sharing
plans from a union point of view .
is that they are designed TO
place the entire control of the .
workers In the hands Of the en-
ployer and give the worker no .
voice in the conditions under
which he will sell his own la :
bor The Ford Automobile com
pany has gone further than any
other manufacturing concern we
know, but it remains to be prov
ed whether the Ford plan, ex
ceptional as it Is and not open
; to many concerns, will not
. prove a detriment to labor, says
; the Shoe Workers Journal If
. it keeps the employees unorgan-
; lied and enables the company to
. introduce every inhuman speed
ing up process, making for ruin
. ed health and short life. the
company will get its pound of
; flesh at the sacrifice of men, and
this is what profit sharing gen
: orally means.

vsIus of Compensation.

The justice of workmen's compensa-

shown than in the recent disaster at

law passed last October each widow
will get 500 a month until death or re-

THE STRUGGLE.

The climb is hard, the way is steep
The path Is rough and hard to keep,
The goal is far, and foes deride
The traveller on every side,
Yet day by day and night by night
We nearer draw unto the height,
Until at last the dawning sun
Shines on the prizes nobly won,
and all the strife and vain regret
BY which the journey was beset
Forgotten lie amid the haze
OF fast receding yesterdays.

of the allotment is determined
by its value. The Indians are

lease them under some circum-
stances. They receive a royalty
upon the productiod of minerals,

All this country lacks to make

They are not red, but a brown
people. You would imagine from
history that these brown people
lived in tents and wore feathers
in their caps, but not so. They
dress as we do and live in hous-
es. There ere five civilized
tribes in Oklahoma. They are
the Cherokee, Greek, Seminole,
Choctaw and Chickasaw. These
tribes had been granted the
lands included in Indian Terrific
ry, and now defined by treaties
entered into between the United
States and Indians years before,
under the terms of which the
tribes accepted the lands in lieu
of their lands in Carolina, AL
ALBANIA, Georgia and Mississippi.
Prior to 1898, the five civilized
tribes exercised their functions
of government, each having a
complete set of officials. Ever
since 1898, although the tribal
courts were abolished, the In
dian governments have been con-
tinued in a modified form, for
the purpose of adjusting the
tribal affairs.
