POPULATION OF IRELAND
CONTINUES TO DECREASE

LONDON. June 30.-The final report
Oh the census, which was taken in
1911, and which mas just been issued
shows .total population of 420,SS2,-
65S, Of which 315,156,396 were in India,
and 45,221615 in the United Kingdom
Of Great Britain and Ireland
The population of Ireland continues
to decrease, France is stationary but
there has been a remarkable fall in
the growth of the populations of Nor
way and Scotland Germany shows
the highest rate of increase in Europe
while in the British Empire abnormal
rates of growth are shown in Canada
ard New Zealand
In all English counties, births in the
ten international years outnumbered
deaths, yet in six-London, Cumber-
land. Westmoreland, Cardigan, Radnor
and Montgomery-the population de
creased showing the losses by migra-
ton.
AS a consequence, it is charged OF
wilful misstatement Of age, the number
ot women in the groups aged 1925 and
$500 are disproportionately high.
There is a striking increase in the
number of public entertainers which
tie report says is due largely to NOV
inG picture shows.

RULES OF HOUSE
MAY be CHANGED

ATLANTA, Ga, June 30-That the
rules of the house of representatives
against which there has been acute
resentment among progressive mem
bers for many years are in for gem
eral attack at this session of the leg
islature was demonstrated yesterday
by the food of resolutions launched
ON the clerks desk as soon as the
speakers gavel fell.
The first shot out of the box was a
resolution providing that the rules
committee shall consist of one member
for each congressional district, elect
ed by the members from that district
two members from the house at large
and the speaker as ex-officio chairman,
instead of the present system of al
lowing the speaker to name the rules
committee.
| Next came resolution providing
that the house shall have authority to
discharge a committee from further
consideration of bill after they have
kept it for ten days without making ~
report, the purpose of this change be-
ing to enable the house to prevent a
committee from killing a measure by
the simple expedient of refusing to
report on it.
Next came resolution providing
that any rule of the house may be re-
pealed or amended by three-fifths
vote, instead of by a three-fourths
vote as now REQUIRED, and after this
came a resolution requiring the rules
committee to report on all matters re-
ferred to them within three days.
Each and every one of these propos
&c changes in the rules of the house
lis directly in line with reforms which
have been agitated a great deal during
recent years, and are similar to the
reforms carried out by the democratic
majority in the national house of rep
Iresentatires at the outset of the Will
son administration when Cannonism
was overthrow by a thorough re-or-
ganization of the 'i'ules of that body.
Under present conditions, the
speaker names the committees of the
house and the committees are masters
OF the house, instead of its servants,
A committee can keep a bill as Ions
! as they want to and the house has no
lpower to compel the committee to re
Iport, or even to withdraw the bill. The
rules committee can. and usually does,
manipulate legislation to suit the pur-
poses of the men put on the committee
/ by the speaker, and during the lass
seven days of the session the rules
Iccmmittee fixes the calendar without
reference to the house for approval or
disapproyal.
The outcome of the fight to reform
the rules of the house will be watched
with interest by forward looking demo
Gratis throughout Georgia.

Machinists

A referendum vote taken by the In
ternational Association of Machinists
on an amendment to the constitution
of the organization providing a plan
for admitting women workers en-
ployed in the machine industry into
the union has carried by a large ma
jority. Since beginning of the Euro
pean war there has been a large num-
Der of women employed in the machine
shops of eastern cities who will now
be eligible to membership in the union
and receive protection guaranteed all
members of the International Associa-
ton.

Stage Employees
Gathered by "Ham")

1t is reported that the proprietor of
Rosedale studios is rapidly acquiring
vast assortment of war babies in
the shape of ham and eggs with sauer-
kraut. He was seen lately with the
Brinker's cute little bus is on the
fields, where it has been operated on
for overloadus of the garage floor.
Harold is trying it out this (Wednes-
day. evening. 1t just holds two.
One of Frazer's yellow leg chicks
caught a bad abscess in the knee.
Frank is somewhat of surgeon and
performed a major operation on the
little patient, which at last report is
doing fine and Frank is quite well,
too.
Whistle received five, he did not
earn, by the tip route. Hitch thought
he was in fifty-fifty on the soft mon
ey. Hitch was wrong. In the ensuing
argument Hitch was rough in the ex-
treme. Right there Hitch was wrong
again. These methods can not win
much in the long run. "Kultur" US
ually reaches farther and gains bet
ter results.
Patriots of stage craft are plenti-
full these days. The latest examples
of this manly spirit are with the "Blue
Paradise" at the Broadway. L. w.
Phillips, strapping youthful carpen-
ter, leaves to join the field forces of
the United States army and Ray Bar
nett, of Local 112, an expert electri-
clan, will volunteer his services to the
naval department. May good luck
stick with them.

CigarmaRers
(By j. W. sanford.)

We have before US applications from
about twenty local unions from east
ern localities for our approval for in
crease in their bills of prices. The
high cost of existence makes it nee
essary for them to have more money.
Oakland, California, on the west, also
is asking for a raise. Denver so far
has not asked for any change.
Frank Smith met with a painful
accident while running to catch an
automobile on his way from Denver
to Sacramento last week, by straining
his ankle. A week or so on the sick
list will put him in shape again.
J. K. Straub came to town last week
cigarmaking in the eastern country,
where cigarmakers are scarce and
working overtime to fill orders.
The Hagler Cigar Company in this
city do not use our label for the rea-
son that they do not comply with our
laws relating to working conditions
and wages. They make a number of
different brands which are sold out
side of the city mostly.
The Chiolero Mercantile Company,
also manufacturers of cigars on a
small scale and who were formerly
under our jurisdiction, have seen fit
to dispense with our label. 1t is up to
the smoker to demand the label in
which event it will not be necessary
for. US to refer to these factories.
j. A. Yglesia is confined to the hos
pital this week, due to an operation
for gall stones. No serious results
are anticipated.
The Livingston Cigar Company re-
ports business good, Notwithstanding
uneasiness expressed by some of the
dealers on account of the war inter
fering with the trade. All other fac
tories continue busy also.
A persistent demand for the label
of all crafts is bound to bring good
results.
