Abandon Tradition of
 Cutting Down Trees

TOXIC, Feb 26.-Beglnning this new year Osaka dispensed with the tradi. tional pine tree decorations, at least in front of the government offices. The authorities think it is a useless waste to cut down so many young trees just to celebrate the short fes- tay.t.es of the coming year, and so the city was partly deprived of the bouquets of pine and bamboo that two by two stand at each door to wei. come the New Year.

But the seamen are important in an
other aspect. They are a part e the
national defense IN al countries. The
nations, which have no seamen and
yet have a shoreline to defend. are
at the mercy of any enemy. Such
defense requires seamen Of sufficient
skill and number to meet the enemy
on the water and thus protect the
coast It was with this view that
the congress of the United States en-
acted the Seamen's act. It is this
idea that win protect the Seamen's
act from being wantonly mutilated or
repealed.
It is true that a large number OF
utterly worthless Americans are now
at sea; but those are not the men who
are to make up the sea power OF this
country When our country shall
wake up to the real fact those men
viii be left on shore to impose their
inefficiency and their fool propaganda
on men and women who cannot get
away from them and who are com.
PEELED to listen. Shipowners too, will
some day be able to see that they
need seamen to handle their vessels
and to keep them sufficiently safe to
make it something more than gam
bic to be a passenger ON a steamer.

WHO GETS PROFITS

Put yourself in the place of N. P.
Nelson, farmer near Lead, N. D.,
who recently sent carload of pota-
toes to the Minnesota Potato Ex-
change. The sacks alone for these
twenty-one tons of potatoes cost him
over $50. The potatoes arrived in
good condition and brought 80 cents
per 100 pounds on the market, vet
Mr.. Nelson got but $1.3O in payment
for his labor, his land rent, his sacks
and seed potatoes. Other farmers
from the same vicinity report that
this is not an exceptional occurrence
that other farm products are
bringing about the same price.
Where did the $334.7O taken from
the value of this farmers potatoes
go? The lions share of it, as the
bill indicates, went to the railroads.

BY chas. olesen, Business Agent,
Sailors Union.

In the following communication to
his paper, Mr.. Chas. Oleson, business
gent of the Sailors union, has writ
en in an interesting way for the
abor Day edition, about the Sea
nen's uion, and about the seamen-
The seaman Is q bird of passage. He
BONES into a community bring some
thing that the community needs OF
wants, to take away from the CON-
munity some surplus product of labor
that the community desire to send
away in order that it may be exchang.
ed for other things desired.
The seaman is human. He is SC
very like the rest of men, that having
been cooped up In q vessel for some
time away from other people, he is
like your woodsmen, likely to run
somewhat wild, when he comes on
shore. You never see the seaman al
his best. You see him in relaxation
You do not see him at his most i'm
portant work. You see him when
he is looking for some amusement
for some diversion from the routine
and hardships Of the sea.
The seaman is not as a general rule
Very much Of a talker. When il
comes to explaining his life and to
give reasons why he should be looked
upon and treated as other humans, he
fails because the difference between
him and you men on shore arises Out

shall ask you to remember that
the seaman was up to q certain time
a landsman like you. He absorbed the
ideas, customs and manners Of the
place in which he was raised. His
hopes, his fears and his desires and
longings are Ike yours. He went to
school somewhere and learned to
read and write IN some way, accord
ing to the school, which be had the
good fortune to attend prior to be-
coming q seaman He read about
freedom, he learned to sing about
It, and since he cannot have it at sea,
he tries to make up for lost time,
when he gets on shore. You landsmen
feel that the seaman is there to serve
you, and when he refuses to serve on
such conditions as you think proper,
IL you think at all, you get peevish,
or even angry, and you are then prone
to listen to those whose self-interest
prompts them to ask that the seaman
be placed under very strict laws, that
are making him so much like a serf
that you could not very well distin-
guish the one from the other.
While you may happen to have a
lot of sympathy with the individual,
who happens to attract your attention,
your sympathy with the group is very
slight, because here seamen's desires
cross your at times, and, Of course,
your sympathy whether you know IT
or not is first with yourself. You
are therefore perfectly willing that
the seamen should be segregated from
all other men and be compeIld to la
Dor against his viii.
