LONG-HOUR ALIENS
CAN'T BE EDUCATED

Indianapolis United Mine Work
ers' Journal expresses its approval of
the attempt of the federal department of
labor to educate the non-speaking immi-
grant, but takes occasion to again call
attention to the necessity for trade un-
ionism among these workers.
We fully approve of any plan con-
ceived with the intent to assimilate the
foreign-speaking workers." says the edi-
tor, but we also recognize that the great
est bar to the assimilation or the educa-
tion of the foreign workers is the selfish
interest of those who temporarily see
profit in the division of the workers :;
who find in their ignorance of the Ian
guage and of the standards of this land
an opportunity to exploit to maintain a
rate of remuneration commensurate with
the lower standard of living these i'm
migrants were accustomed to in their old
homes.
1--WE hold that the question of Ameri-
canzation, of assimilation, is largely a
question of better standards of living, of
offered by shorter work days, of the
made possible only with alleviation of
CSohOilliS plSSSuIc.
"The worker foreign or native, who
tolls in the superheated mill for 12
hours each day, seven days each week.
can have no such visions. His mind is
as tired as his exhausted body; the pro-
posed night school holds out no oppor-
tunity to him.
by some means it must be brought
home to those men that. first, they must
find means through which they must allie
viatc their economic conditions, get from
under the grievous burden, the bearing
of which saps all their physical and men
tai powers,
"And that, of course, means that they
must be first aroused toward self-alevia-
ton through united action, united pro-
test against the conditions that tend to
make of them mere brute beasts, toward
organization on the economic feld-in
labor unions.
"The labor union makes Americaniza-
ton possible. With conditions such as
can be secured only through intelligent
cooperation on the economic field, the
worker will find ways and means to self
education; without it, the best intended
efforts to mplant knowledge must fail
to reach the overworked, underfed, eX-
hausted worker"

HUGE STANDARD OIL PROFITS.

j New York-Holders of Standard Oil
stocks will receive nearly 500 200, 900 in
cash this year Add to this the distribu-
tions made as stocks and dividends and
the amount reaches $l2S,9O9, ,663, as
compared with $50, ,791 900 last year.

thirty or more companies. Since that
time the total cash distributions made
by the systems companies total $751;
3O3,95s In addition stock dividends
have been made in the same period to
an aggregate of $1s7, ,443,33O at par, but

Former President Taft Condemns
ErOtherhOOd's Attitude.

Providence, r. I.-Former President
Commerce here, declared that the zone
big cloud on our horizon when we look
to the days to follow this world con-
flict," is the danger to our economic
strength expressed in the attempt of
union labor to place itself above law and
order He continued "The highest
tribunal of the nation has been notified
that unless the Adamson law is upheld
the threatened railroad strike will be
enforced. 1t is threat to starve the
nation into submission. The decision
resulting may be the proper one, but the
means contemplated are wholly, wrong.
If we have railroad strike all forces
of public opinion and public action must
be called into play to force obedience. y

Receiver Named For Kentucky Mes.
senger-Employes File Suit.

Attorney S. l.. Balkely, in behalf of
Chris. Cline and other employees. in Ken
ton Circuit Court last Wednesday. OBJ
tanned the appointment of a receiver
tor the Kentucky Messenger afternoon
daily newspaper, published at Covington.
The petitioners say the paper has not
been prosperous. Judge Tracy appointed
Master Commissioner w. n. Hind re-
ceiver under $4,000 bond.
Offices of the paper are located on
Sixth street, near Madison avenue,
where Labor Day its first issue was pub
lished.
Previous to becoming a daily the Ken
lucky Messenger was a weekly publica-
ton, issued in the interest of labor
unions, owned by Chris. Cline.
As weekly it was successful but the
individual ownership was merged into
that of a company, in which large
number OF street railway employees be-
came stockholders.
The office was well equipped and a
large, modern press installed. Several
large contracts were obtained, one from
the State Department The plant also
was equipped for job printing.
Chris. Cline, president and business
manager, when asked last night concern
ing the appointment of receiver, de-
clined to discuss the matter at this time.
Previous to the application for re-
ceiver in Circuit Court, a suit had been
filed in Quarterly Court by Attorney w.
Scott Robson for J. L. Shober, foreman
of the printing department, in which it
was sought to recover $75.40, represent
ing two weeks wages. The petitioner
also sought an attachment against a suf-
paper to satisfy the alleged debt. The
attachment order was issued by Judge
Read.
Receiver Hind said there would be no
further issues of the paper at present,
or until its affairs are settled.

Secretary Lansing acknowledged this note on December II, saying that he had asked the powers at war With Germany for safe conducts for the two alta aches and their servants. But Secretary Lansing did not ask for safe conducts for successors for Captains Boy-Ed and von Papen. His note of December II says on this point:
 upon the receipt of notice that his Majesty the Emperor and King has designated the successors of these gentlemen. and after the government of the United States has decided upon their acceptability, it will be my pleasure to request the powers at war with the German Empire to provide safe conducts for their passage to the United States.'
 Only two other notes of the series are given in the new White Book. Both were from Secretary Lansing to Count von Bernstorff. In one of these, dated December 15, 1915, Secretary Lansing informed the German am bassador that the British and French ambassadors had advised the state department that "safe conducts will

APPROVE PHILIPPINES RUI,
senate Adopts Report of Committees
 on Conferees.

Washington, Aug. 1.-The agree nlent between the house and senate conferees on the bill giving a greater measure of self government to the Philippine islands was approved by the senate yesterday by a vote of 37 to 22. All those who voted for the measure were democrats and twentv- one of the tWenty-twO senators who opposed the bill were republicans. The only democrat to vote against the bill was Senator Lane of Oregon. While opposition to the conference agree- ment is certain in the house. no doubt is felt that it will also give it's ap- proval.
 The amendment of Senator Clarke Of Arkansas providing for the inde- pendence of the Philippines after two and within four years has been elini mated from the measure, but the pre- amble recites that it is and always has been the intention of the Unitedf States to grant independence when a. stable government has been estab- lished.
