THE NEW CHARTER WILL
PROTECT HOME MERCHANTS

At Thursdays Retail Merchants
luncheon there was some discussion
Of whether the new charter would
protect home merchants.
Article 3 of the charter confers
on the city full power of local self
government except as restrained by
the constitution and general laws OF
the state and special limitations OF
the charter itself, and there are no
special limitations in this regard.
Sec. Z of Art. of the Charter
specially provides that the city
council may enact ordinance flor
the proper promotion of trade
and commerce within the city,"
Under this power if the new char
ter is adopted, the city council can,
and doubtless will, enact ordinances
preventing outsiders who have no
interest in our city, and who pay no
taxes for its support, from dumping
on this market their refuse goods,

WORKERS URGED TO BATTLE
FOR WHAT'S COMING TO THEM
In the seats built to hold Chicago's
richest grand opera fans, 5000 toiIers
packed the Auditorium yesterday aft
ernOOn. They were garment workers
and celebrated, on May Day, the win
ming Of a renewal of their contract
with Hart, Schaffner & Marx, cloth
Ing llIIll.
From the stage that has bourne
the best of art and music to the
highbTOws who could pay the price.
congratulations were showered on
the crowd Of tOileTs of many nations
for their strength in union. And they
were told to keep up their fight for
good wages and decent working con-
ditiOns.
Don't look for peace" was warn
ing carried to the workers by Atty
Clarence DaTTOW.
For you'll never be at peace until
you are dead" he told them ''The
worst thing l can wish you is that
you have grown cOntented. When a
person is cOntented h is ready to
die.

days and rested on the seventh. I'm
sorry he rested on the Sabbath. The
work was never finished
There is no time to rest. No man
can afford to rest until he is ready to
die, and l would hate to see you union
cOntented. That's the beginning of
the end. Keep at the struggle and
lend a hand to the worker outside
your union"
W. o. Thompson, attorney for the
industrial relations commission and
arbitrator between the firm and its
employees, drew a word picture Of the
struggle which brought the union the
best conditions in a large shop that
the world affords.
He gave credit to everyone and
said that some members of the cloth
ing firm had done their share to meet
the necessities of the workers.
Sidney Hillman; president of the
union, made an appeal to the en-
ployes of the Hart, Schaffner & Marx
company to give up the million and
half doIleT raise they got by the new
agreement as a strike fund for the
other members of the union who are
about to go out in an effort to dupIi-
cate the success of the H, S. & NJ.
employees.

STARTLING DISCOVERIES
Victims of tuberculosis Are Far More
Numerous Than Reported.

Lansing-Out of 1888 persons ex-
amined for tuberculosis by the state
board of health clinics in eight coun-
ties, 610 persons were found to have
positive cases of tuberculosis, while
515 were suspicious, and so classed.
This shows that the work of examina-
tons being conducted has brought
to light hundreds OF cases heretofore
unknown to physicians, as the records
on file in the state board of health
show conclusively that less than 10
per cent of the tuberculosis cases
were ever reported to the state de-
partment. What the number would
be If every person were examined
would probably startle the state. for
where clinics are held only a small
proportion of the population submit
TO an examination.

FAVORS A BATTERY AT MAC.
President Kedzie is Said to Have
Changed His Mind.

Kedzie, of M. A. c., is lending his sup
port TO the cause Of preparedness and
more efficient training for home de-
Tense. Towards the Accomplishment OF
this aim, the president is nurturing
q movement which he expects may
ultimately lead TO the establishment
Of a student artillery battery at M.
A. c. and the erection OF a new armory
for the college. The present armory
is inadequate for drill purposes and
the war department has but lately
called the attention of the college
authorities to this fact.
President KedZie was not greatly in
favor of an artillery battery last
spring, when it. was proposed to or
ganize one as an adjunct of the state
national guard. His opposition and
that OF the faculty was backed by
parents of students, who protested
against their sons enlisting for ma
tional guard service. The presidents
idea now is for the creation of
battery having no connection except
those with the government, and con-
trolle6 as the rest OF the military or
ganization here is controlled
