Rows CAN'T WORK.,

Alabama has adopted law which
will make it unlawful to employ boy
of fourteen years or under at any gain
full occupation. In other words boy,
I'D until he passes the age OF fourteen,
cannot do anything for anyone and ex-
pect to be paid for it. He cannot
carry papers after school because that
Ia a gainful occupation. He cannot
shine shoes, run errands, be messen-
ger boy, or do any of the usual work
that most boys look to for spending
money. If he works he must do 1t for
his health and without any reward In
this world that he can see. The result
will be that boys under the age Of four
teen will have considerable time on
their hands. The law does not want
them to be useful, it wants them to
loaf around and many of them will
acquire the loafing habit and keep it to
the end of their days. Alabama's
law is aimed to hit the employment of
children in mines and factories, but it
is entirely too broad when it keeps
them from employment in ANY gainful
occupation 1t may be good thing
physically for few, but it is going to
be a bad thing mentally and morally
for great many.
A similar law has been proposed in
Iowa, but has not met with very much
favor at the hands of the legislators.

at least seven years 1t had been be-
yond peradventure that. when individ-
uals act together through expedients
such as those of the Danbury matters
to ruin the business Of hostile con-
Germ, the principles Of fair trade and
lawful competition are outraged. and
the individuals responsible may be re-
CURED to respond in damages. 1t has
been clear that this rule Of liability for
the results of concerted attacks on
business prosperity applies alike to or
CARNATIONS of employees and aggrega-
lions of capital, and is not altered or
suspended by the fact that the men re-
sorting to these unfair means OF in
dustrial warfare are members OF a
trades union and are seeking by such
methods Of bringing about results not
in any way unlawful in themselves.
The only startling thing about the de-
cision which closes the Danbury case
is that the supreme court carries its
previous holdings to their logical con-
illusions. Those who thought the court
would find some way of stopping short
of letting Loewe take homes and bank
accounts from those who wrecked his
business now realize that the supreme
court meant what 1t said.
The Danbury decision means that a
crime is a crime and an injury Is an
injury, whether committed by capital
CT by labor. It means that the
methods of trade rivalry and industrial
competition must be fair, and not
merely destructive and injurious. 1t
means that a trades union may not
destroy the business Of manufactur-
ing concern by methods which would
not be permitted to trade rival OF
that concern, and that whoever makes
wanton war, individually or collective
ly, on the business prosperity of an
other, must be prepared to make good
the consequences in dollars and cents.
1t means also that out of the ruction
and travail, out of the injustice which
will undoubtedly be done in individual
instances, there Is developing a new,
definite and wholesome doctrine for
the guidance of our industrial and COM
mercial relationships, a growing real
ization that the ban of the law ought
not to be directed against trades un.
ions as such or large combinations OF
capital as such, but rather against
their unfair, destructive and unwhole,
some practices, wherever manifested
and to the extent manifested.
Instead of disbanding the union OF
Remembering the efficient industrial
combination, society will seek rather
to prevent and punish the improper
practices. Instead of dissolving the
combination, society is coming to see
that the sensible thing is to enjoin
and punish its Objectionable acts. In
stead Of waging war on the forms OF
organization which capital and labor
find most suitable for their Industrial
efficiency the law will hold to strict
,countability the individuals In those
organizations who resort to unfair
practices and inflict wanton injuries

Fairness in Trade RiDdlHes
by WILLIAM l.. RANSOM
Justice of the City Court Of the City of New York.

The United States supreme court
has unanimously decided that 1856
working men in Danbury, Conn.,, must
give up their homes and lifetime saw
ings In order to pay quarter of mil
lion dollars to hat manufacturer for
whom but few of them had ever work
ed and whom many of them had never
seen.
To grasp the full significance OF the
final decision in this celebrated case,
it is necessary to visualize and make
concrete just what happened in Dan
bury. In July, 1902, newspaper read
'ers in Danbury found remarkable
notice in the advertising columns. A
man named Loewe, owner OF prosper
GUS hat factory, announced that he mad
been unable to meet certain demands
of national officers of the union hatters
and had declined to discharge those
residents of Danbury who were not
members of the union. There was IT.
tie unusual about this except its week
long publication at advertising rates,
but Loewe went on to say, In SUD-
stance, that he did not believe union
members or any one else had any more
right to conspire together to ruin his
business than to demolish his win
dows, batter in his doors or malign
the quality of his product, and that II
the united matters of Danbury persist
ed in a boycott against his business,
he would hold every one of them ind1-
vidually responsible to him in dam
ages for any injury caused. To make
his position even more clear he mailed
copy Of this notice to every halter
in Danbury.
OF course, every one knew, In a gen.
eral way, that a boycott was to ousl-
ness what "dum-dum" bullets are to
warfare, and knew that courts mad
handed down high-sounding phrases,
telling how the boycott infrnged
rights sacred since King John. No one
except Loewe took his notice serious
ly, however, and the union matters
went ahead, as they had threatened, to
bring Loewe into line" by their us
ual and well-known methods" Union
hatters agreed not to buy Loewe hats
They urged other unions to have their
members and friends refrain from buy
ing Loewe hats Dealers throughout
the country were told to stop handling
Loewe hats, on penalty of losing the
patronage of all union men. Cards
proclaiming that Loewe and dealers
handling his hats were unfair ana
at weldon t-patronize' them were
circulated wherever unionism had in
fluence or friends. Perhaps the Dan
bury matters thought Loewe would
rush into court to get an Intellectual In
junction. He did not. One day he
started suit for damages against the
union members, and his attorneys OBJ
tanned attachments against their
homes and saving accounts, as security
for the judgment they have now OBJ
tanned.
It has been a twelve year fight in the
courts, and the outcome is a $252,OOO
verdict. OF the original defendants,
