MOVE FOR BETTER RELATIONS
Prominent Employers Of Labor at CHI
cago Working on a "Get
Together" Plan.

Formation of commission composed
of 40 large employers of labor, whose
object will be to promote cordial and
friendly relations between wage earn
ers and those for whom they work, has
been undertaken at Chicago under the
direction OF Harold Mccormick Of the
international Harvester company and
Harold Swift, vice president Of Swift
& Co.
The plan was suggested by John J.
Mitchell, president Of the Illinois Trust
and Savings bank, after converse
tion he had with Mayor Ole Hanson
of Seattle, during the latter's recent
visit to Chicago.
Mr., Mitchell, J. Ogden Armour, John
G. Shedd, John Scott and others Joined
in call for about 40 representative
business men, where the project was
discussed and given concrete form.
The main idea is to demonstrate to EN-
ployees that their employers have an
interest in their welfare beyond the
mere payment Of wages. A commu-
nifty service organization will be
formed which will provide entertain
ments, lectures and cultivate spirit
of sympathy and helpfulness.
Simon O'Donnell, president of the
Chicago Building Trades council, said
he thought the commission was on the
right track, and would prove beneficial
in many ways.

The treaty by which the present
kingdom of Belgium was created ana
its neutrality guaranteed was slgneu
at London on November Is, 1881, by
the representatives of Austria, Prus-
sia France, England and Russia. 1t
was in fact, not merely one scrap OF
nar<ar" which the Germans tore up
when they invaded Belgium in 1914,
but two-for this neutrality guaran-
teed by the treaty of 1881 was re-
affirmed by Germany at the beginning
of the Franco-Prusslan war of 1870 at
the demand of England. The congress
of Vienna, after Napoleonic wars, had
constituted Belgium and Holland one
country under the House of Orange.
But the Belgians were never content to

when the French revolution of 1880
which placed Louis PHILIPPE on the
throne took place the Belgians were
Insured to a successful revolt which
was directly impelled by the events
of July in Paris. The laws of Holland
we're generally unfavorable to the Bel
gians: the Belgians were not proper
tionately represented in the legislature
and there was, BESIDES, the difference
In Language and religion of the two
sections. Although the Belgians spoke

official language of the courts and only
Dutch was taught in the schools. Long
before the revolution In Paris an agi-

administration for the Belgians.

On August 5, 1880, while the people
of Holland were supposed to be cele-
brating the kings birthday, revolu-
tionary piece was performed in the
opera house In Brussels. Stirred by
the dramatic representation the audi
ence began to shout for France and
against Holland. The cries were heard
In the streets and repeated and a riot
ensued. Then some one hoisted over
the city hall the old standard of
Brabant and the riot turned into a
revolution. In few hours Brussels
was in the hands Of the revolution
aries. The revolution spread to the
country like wildfire. The revolutions
lists made proposal to the king that
he should submit to the states-general
proposition for separate governments
FOR Belgium and Holland under the
House of Orange. The king promised
and fulfilled his promise.
A provisional government was estab.

HOW
RHEUMATISM
BEGINS

The excruciating agonies of rheuma-
tism are usually the result of failure of
the kidneys to expel poisons from the
system. If the irritation Of these uric
acid crystals is allowed to continue, in
durable bladder or kidney disease may
result. Attend to it at once. Don't
resort to temporary relief. The sick
kidneys must be restored to health by
the use of some sterling remedy which
will prevent a return of the disease.

Oil Capsules Immediately. They have
brought back the joys Of life to count

matism, lame back, lumbago, sciatica,
gall stones, gravel and other affections

and allied organs.

clear out the kidneys and urinary tract
and the soothing healing oils and herbs

ON IMMIGRATION
Gompers EIucidates Position of

of Labor.
AIMED AT GREEDY TRUSTS
Combinations, He Says, Would Bring

Virtually Make Them Slaves
Other News of Labor.

Opposition Of the American Fedora
ton of Labor to unrestricted immigra-
ton during the next four years is
based largely on a desire to check
mate "a combination of corporA-sons,
trusts and shipping companies" that
would bring immigration to the United
States under contracts which made
them virtually 'slaves of these
trusts" Samuel Gompers, president Of
the Federation of Labor, declared in
an address before the Pan-American
Federation at New York.
This is critical time, crucial
time, a time unprecedented on the
globe" said Mr.. Gompers, "and it SIM
ply means we must protect ourselves
or be overwhelmed. The standards
we have raised for Americas workers
we are not going to give up to the
greed and rapacity of employers"

are continually being introduced

portation Of nursery stock and other
plants which have been disastrous over

This has resulted in the department

One Of the most recent and most

Farmers are urged to look for this
