government will he broken
This result will have been brought about.

inCluon themselves III few years the free
labor organization has grown from n0thng

monweath's most skilled artisans who
found union dication and tyranny intolcr-

Labor organization is more minute and
solid III Australia than il is with us. in that
even the farm servants come within the or

closely organized rs the steamftters.

unionzaton is possible among the workers

The Railroad Decision

THERE is ground for solid satisfaction
with the decision of the Interstate Com
merce Commission. 1t is true that the rail
roads had asked for a horizontal rate ill
crease OF > per cent. which would have given
them about $50.000.o00 a year more than
they get now. The commission finds that
this demand is not justified. but points out
that the roads can put an extra $4,000, 900
into their treasures by wise economics.
The railroads now know just what is ahead
of them Public opinion has been sufficient
~ informed as to railroad mana cement and
financing not to give credence TO further APP
peais for higher rates until the railroads first
clean their own houses. eliminate waste and
stop eXtravagancc. The lines affected by
the decision have received their square
