In concrete terms the union label Is powerful because It accomplishes by peaceful means, with absolute certainty and little cost, that which the strike and boycott seek to accomplish, at such a sacrifice and great cost to both capital and labor, and will continue to do ' until a broader and wider sympathy, both of knowledge of duty to man Is observed In the laws of construction* and distribution. The workers who strike in protest against wrongs may be defeated, but the public will eventually protest and register such a powerful demand for the union label that will make it Invincible. The label enlists and arms In 'labor's cause those elements which determine the issue of every cause in civilised society, namely, the women and children. The mistress of the household represents the "purchasing power." She cannot go on strike, but she can obviate the necessity of striking by demanding the union label. With the "purchasing power" in her pocket, and the union label In her heart, woman begins with the olive branch. She is mistress Of the situation. To the woman of the trade unionist household the union label affords a guarantee that the wages earned under union conditions are expended upon union products and for the maintenance of union conditions, to return with Interest in , Improved conditions for all.

This "Industrial disquietude" Is, however, aggravated further by many other causes. The Inhumanity of the Whole Japanese labor system is appalling. Thus we read: .

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 .

Pledged as he has been for years, to he guided In "Jsnte matter by the opinion of the people of British Columbia, who now for extending him allele advice he Minds us as racial bigots, ignoring ike fact that we are of the same flesh and bltood as the people of the Bast, educated" In the same schools add worehitfM&e same Ood. Further We have a practical knowledge of this question, of Which Mr. Lanrler and the people of the East are In comparative Ignorance. Why has the honorable gentleman cultivated rather' than endeavored to eliminate this prejudice by violating his pledge to the people of British Columbia, and for the purpose of oiling the machinery of Asiatic emigration,' appointed a man as Lieutenant-Governor of the Province s. :��� ��: t Tinsmithing and iNTFC 123 &��* Vancouver, B. C having a -record as sn enemy of white labor unequalled by any man on this continent, and whose chief aim for years has been to substitute Asiatic for white labor in British Columbia. A man who, as the evidence taken before Commissioner King indicates, has been using his exalted position- to promote kls own financial Interests, vetoing aa he did the Natal Act which received the endorsation of 95 per cent of the people of British Columbia. The natural Inference Is that he was moved In doing so by a desire to retain possession of this Asiatic club that he had for years used so effectively in keeping the Lady- smith and Cumberland wage-slaves up in the collar, and who has now been proven to be engaged in Importing contract labor from Japan in secret, violating the laws of this country that he has been pledged to see enforced, i And as If to crown this monument of treason to white labor, Mr. Laurier negotiates a treaty with Japan that permits that Government to regulate emigration to Canada and to dictate, In conjunction with the Canadian' employer, wages and conditions to Canadian labor, rendering a fulfillment or his pledge to the people Of British Co- Ittmbta ea absolute impossibility, and which,- te my a*fe��y ^ilitutas to uaui ana? tenor aw sanw* ueesuneoie ever hatched In the crafty of a Canadian statesman and tint should politically down the whole Liberal party In the eyes of Canadian labor. < And let me nek >here, "why did not Mr. Templeman and his British Columbia colleagues follow the advice so generously given by that gentleman to Mr. MacBride, and resign In a body, as a protest, Instead of later developing into red- handed revolutionary agitators in order to square themselves with the British Columbia electorate?" >,,.-.. Again, sir, the false accusation made by the honorable' gentleman, that the people of the Pacific cobbc are racial bigots constitutes Insidious slander, intended to cover, in the syes Of the Eastern people;' a grave < diplomatic mistake. Let me say further, and i speak from practical knowledge, the people of the Pacific coast are as free from racial prejudice, religious or national, as any people that treads God's green earth. But when a government, elected to represent the Interest of all the people of Canada, negotiates a treaty with a foreign power which conserves the Interests of five per cent of our people at the expense of the other ninety-five, sad which opens our ports and- permits Canada to be deluged with the sewerage of Asiatic poverty to whom twenty cents a day is a Klondike for 16 hours' service, and who for centuries have been struggling under a condition of poverty of which we have but a limited conception, and under which they have evolved a system, economically, ethically and socially, entirely foreign and inferior to ours, and which as experience in the British Columbia fisheries, canneries, mills and other industries Banishment of White- Labor from British Columbia, or his degeneracy Into conditions approximating that of the Asiatic who has further become a weapon in the hands of the Canadian employer, used to crush the efforts of white labor to better Its condition, patience degenerates Into cringing cowardice by the side of which even mob violence becomes a white winged angel. 14 And further, Mr. Laurier's recent criticism of the stand taken by Mr. Borden in this matter, coupled with the Insidious method adopted by pur Government of instituting another hyj^Ucal Ihyest^i^n,^^ .this question when they already have in possession the report of the late cient evidence to convince an Intell^ "l m^^W%Mi L the ;^4v%WUt^f mSSbswJmmm ��p: labor .whenever the Canadian ihlWld fftTtninlY ffslYllPflt In* S^*^-'^^^nw-n^^-^^^n^r^^gjnnss^^^^nn^a'*'Ss^a^n^^^^Swa*wsn^n^nngn' Canadian workmen of the absolute hopelessnflelbf efeloJM any permanent pracfft rejrjjl0 the hands of the party power: And In conclusion, ItlinV C^umbla JaJhor (tejroj ItaJ and politically of the Present Government _ (from Senator HlYniplvW *$* to that degenerated political parasite, who ! p*rfenidji��ii Sells his vote and his services to the politi- ,cal bass on .Water street, to assist in its master In securing government contracts as a reward fpr st*.e?|M- diture in prostituting the electorate to perpetuate In power a Government that has for years enacted legislation aimed at oont^uing Jtsetf in power rather than conserving the best interests of the common people of Canada, and who have delegated to a foreign power the right In conjunction with Messrs.

In every city of any slse upon, this western continent there Is at present an army of unemployed and poverty-stricken people, with all of the attendant misery that this implies. Even at this writing. Just at the beginning of Christmas week the streets of Vancouver'are decorated here and there with placards making appeals for charity on behalf of the city's poor. That similar, and even worse conditions prevail In the uup^' cities V well known to everybody Who has eyes to see and ears to1 hear. That this condition is not confined to this continent is /equally well known. The awful conditions prevailing in such sinkholes of capital aa London, Liverpool, Paris and other so-called great cities has long since become an ordinary and normal circumstance. The depths of human misery that exist In such places can never be measured in terms of human speech. It has been the theme of many writers and observers but all the powers at their command have failed to paint it In Its true and terrible colore. Now comes word that conditions surrounding the poor of Berlin, the German capital, are becoming most acute, and thousands, are undergoing the agony of starvation. It Is asserted that during one, week re-, cently nearly 12,000 children attended school breakfastless Charity Is being loudly appealed to In order to cope with the situation, with, of all, there's not so much to course, the usual result of pennies the present "financial stringency.

The present system of slavery Is, In Itself, a calamity. Its evil effects are felt In every part of the social structure In the rottenness and corruption, vice and clime, that are to-day gnawing at the vitals of human society and seriously threatening Its complete collapse. This accursed calamity that expresses Its virulence In the exploitation and torture of its victims In order that a few worthless capitalists may pose as "captains of Industry," "icings of finance'.;, and "commercial barons," expresses Itself in moat acute form when the thieving capitalists become so gorged,with the plunder taken from slaves that they can neither assimilate It themselves or profitably dispose of It to other thieves or slaves as the case may be. Then In the midst of this profusion of wealth production Is curtailed and slaves turned loose upon the highways with neither food for their stomachs or means of getting It It Is a standing rule of capitalism that its slaves shall only eat that which may be purchased with their wages, and their wages are fixed, by powers over which they have no control, at a figure enabling them to eat only where they have a Hence, no job, no eat?- When they toil they are the victims of a calamity that separates them from tie food ,etc., they produce.

But we. hope ��� ,"to.,: educate > these members to aak their employers, to have white men serve them in future, ; The suggestion, same time ago for papers to be read on different subjects with discussion, was, at the end of one meeting, brought up quite Impromptu but was perhaps1 a failure. The reason was, that nothing was properly prepared and "the members did too much talking. They should only be allowed to speak on any subject bankers are now criticising their Western brethren for maintaining excessive cash re-; serves, in the ears of those who hare money to nave, it sounds like criticism of the faithful watchdog .by the predatory coyote. President Gompers has lighted the way for labors hosts on the Injunction question. The soldiers of Prance were wont to follow, wherever in the thick of battle, they could see {he white plume of Henry of Navarre waving. And SO it Is with the soldiers of the grand army of American labor They will follow Wherever. Samuel Gompers dares to lead. And. If it shall become necessary, In a Presidential year, to lead them against the "Injunction Standard Bearer," the political slaughter of 1892, when Whitelaw Reid and the, Homestead strike made up labor's casus belli, will not be a circumstance..
