SATUROAf JAN. 131908

Industrial Burbarisni In j Disregarding the supposed h of Americans to their nationality 000 Japanese entered the ynited States during the year ended June 30, 1907, through the regular immigrant channels. This is double the quota for 1906, and it is believed that thousands more came in by way of Canada and Mexico. The Manchester Guardian recently investigated labor conditions in Japan and reached the conclusion that the Japanese emigrants are driven from home by cruelties unparalleled perhaps and certainly not exceeded in any other country in the world today. To quote: Japaneso Industrialism Is a soulless machine In which the worker is ground to a degree that w r ould not be tolerated in any country where those that bear the burden of industry were intelligently and Bufflciently organized to protect themBelves. And woman, being the cheaper vessel, suffers the nethermost weight of It all. During the last twelve months there has hardly been a week that has not witnessed some exhibition of united protest against the injustice of the present labor conditions. Strikes and other manifestations of discontent have broken out in all lines of Industry and among all classes of workers. In some instances the outbreak was so furious as to result in murderous rioting and wanton destruction of extensive property. Within a generation home handicrafts have been crushed in Japan under that juggernaut of progress, machinery, with its factories and mills, Its densely peopled centers and its scramble for shelter and food. And the employer Is no longer a neighboring patron, but a soulless industrial magnate or corporation. Says the Guardian: There are no laws regulating the hours of labor. In some cases, as on railways, twenty-four consecutive hours are the rule. This excessive strain upon the workman is doubtless responsible for the Increasing frequency of accidents on Japanese railways. Often as one passes a atation at night the wholf staff appears to be asleep and probably is. Factory operatives usually work from 7 a. m. to 6 p. m., with a few minutes at noon for a bit of rice to eat. Many of the factory workers are women, for the most part young girls, and these suffer much from the constant strain of time and activity. They are drawn chiefly from the poorer classes and are usually ignorant and •wholly at the mercy of the foreman or employer. It is said that the lot of the Japanese factory girl is the hardest known to woman. She is engaged in a toil that is physically exhausting, her mere pittance keeps her underfed, and she is without either protection or »ym-

pathy.

Life is held cheap, and there is no attempt to prevent accidents endangering the safety of operatives. Everywhere throughout the industrial system is shown that barbaric indifference to suffering and slaughter which the yellow men displayed in the late war. From the grip of this grind of industrial greed and cruelty the poor cooly gladly escapes to any port that will take him in. Worse than he leaves behind he naturally supposes cannot exist in all the world. An Emergency Currency. Although Senator Aldrich seems to have worked along the line of the least resistance in drafting his senate bill authorizing an emergency currency, it Is likely that the measure may be amended in important respects before It comes to a final vote. Doubtless it represents the views of many influential bankers and government officials, but there is a variety of propositions appealing with an almost equal force to the national legislators. The aim of the Aldrich bill seems to be to give the country additional currency to a limited amount when the financial conditions of the country are believed to demand it and at the same time make its circulation unprofitable when the crisis which brought It into being has passed. The provisions of the measure are certain to be carefully studied and the thought of the country directed to a plan which is at least clear cut and has ripe experience back

Copper figures third in the list of our mineral products in 1906, with an output of $177,595,888, while gold and silver are only credited with a yield of $132,630,200. Even clay products and oil and gas stand higher in the list of than the

The land which holds the remains of Paul Jones should provide a niche for the flag Lawrence died under while fighting a losing battle, simply because It was more glorious to die losing than to live and not fight The record breaking flight of an airship under perfect control of about one-half a mile, as made recently In Paris, shows what an infant aerial navigation is in 1908. That Wall street editor who predicts a revolution in this country probably got the notion from the one which recently shook up his immediate neighborhood.

Mr. Cleveland’s depressing references to the lot of an ex-president do not seem to deter numerous aspirants from taking a chance.

Out of the eighty odd millions of people in the United States 33,000,000 are now living directly under absolute prohibition. The motto “look before you leap” is a good cue for many young women during leap year.

In the city of Indianapolis Nov. 30 1886, a llo« er was born into the home ot Mr. and Mr*, William Porter They named her Dorothy Dimple Porter. On Thursday evening Jan, 9, 1908 at 5 p. m. an angel came from heaven clipped her wings, touched her heart strings and bade her come to heaven to rest forever and ever at the age of 21 years. On Dec. 29, 1907 she professed a hope in Christ and was baptized Friday Jan- 3, 1908, Rev. G. H. Shaffer. While conversing with Mrs. Daisy Hayden Gilbert Tuesday she told her that an angel had come from Glory and brought her a white robe to put on, but she said I can’t get my night dress off and they will return and then I will go home to rest. Her text was “The Lord is my Shepherd I Shall not Want.” She leaves to mourn a mother, father, one sister* three brothers other relatives and

* friends,

Good bye dear Dorothy good bye Tis but humanity that we weep. Tis at God’s bidding that we sigh When we together are parted We yield to sorrow broken hearted; Good bye Dorothy Good bye. <
