The carpenter's union has announc are not affiliated with a trade union or the Federal Union. There la no ex euae now for -not belonging to a unidn, and the unions will help' make this fact known. This action of the carpenters Is but proper and it is always under stood that all other trades unions will do likewise. -. i A new Federal Union at Troutdale ili three" weeks oid, has 16 members and the following ftf3nrm: , President. F. Portlllo; vice-president, G. Jolly; secre tary, Harry Groscn; treasurer,? Dan HUkley; guide,, J, Ov We tie; guard, L. Pommer; trustees, Fred 1'elton. E. Holt and Archie Richardson. ; . . ' f -h The charter of Salem Federal Labor Unions closed last week,; and the cost of joining is now J2.60, and the dues to- cents tr .month. There are many worker In Salem who should Join this union. The time is not far distant when they will ses the wisdom of belomrins; to the union. Their delay is injurious to the. cause, of unionism and tallies against them every day they put It off. Alt union men should procure a small memorandum book and clip from' this department and paste therein all mat ters which may be Qf value. From time to ; time , will . be given ; dates of meeting of various unions, cutaof dif ferent union labelsi'names of local offi cers and committees, and all manner of information which If preserved in this. wy will keep you better, posted, and In close? touch with the work. The time I not far distanfcwhen op erators' must likewise be workers.' They must come upto their positions through regular apprenticeships, service, 'un derstanding and appreciation forttbe worker's situation . and rights. Then they will know the toiler Is entitled to a fairer share of theresuKs of his toil and he w-ill get It: Possession of cap ital will not long; stand for Immunity from labor. ! I . The' capable and conservwtlye work-yj man who stays out of the union because I he thinks It productive of "troubie" , should think twiceand ask himself if unionism as a whole is not a great ben ' efit, and whether or not Just such men as himself are not doing; the public an Injustice by hla failure, to come in and "help keep more hasty ones from strik ing, etc. There are two sides to the Question. .. : . , i - - I would urge every Salem ; unlori to hand me data of the minutes of every meeting, or such of them as will, make tn Hem of rending matter. A few Hneg from every .meeting. 1 of every union will -make this department lively jSnd interesting. I would like data, of ; time and place of meeting, Thames "of offlcers, and standing committees. We will print them and then every one who clips them out and preserves them in a memorandum book will soon have a complete directory.. K Workers, whatever your calling, get Jnto the union ranks. Tour Influence Is needed. Should grievances arise af fM;Ung; ' your 4 calling or trade, .you should be In a position to give out the facu as they exist and help to sveurs Justice. Bad situations are sometimes the result of pure misunderstanding or lack 6f know hedge of facts. "Justice only", la the slogan of unionism, and the heln of each and all is needed to secure it. Remember the unions go to the unions not outsiders) for their In formation of the .union's grounds. If you are a wage-earner you should be In & union. - Rome are saying the union movement will . die out ere long In Salem and we shall ht-ar no more of it Such Is the result of many fads, we admit, ahd we also admit that the labor movement In Salem seems to have assumed the ap pearance of a fad. , But W has the vir tue of being a sensible fad, of which thefe are some, and If you will? "put jour ear to the ground" you will heaT the "tramp, tramp, tramp of the .union forces steadily forging ahead in every direction. It will not die. It dare not and it cannot. Labor organ 1 ration will do riiore for the Willamette valley than anything else at this time. It will awaken it with the '.spirit of progress and; infuse into It metropolis tan life. K will let the world know will send some money out here to et a corner on us. . .There wilt be strikes, perhaps, so laborers ca get fair and Just pay for their services. ft will all mean more business, more skilled labor and higher; wae. more money In cir culation and a general awakening;. Its good results will far more than offset its unavoidable bad appearing; details. But we must expect the bkter with the sweet. ' ' - ' ' : The Willamette valley Is one of the wealthiest sections of this country. There Is less money In circulation per capita In the. Willamette valley than in almost any other similar sixed section of the counttr. Wages are lower in the Willamette vaHey than - In . any other 'section of the United States, so say union men from everywhere. The Willamette valley is among the last sections to have its workers-organised and standing; up for their rights.- Are these facts merely coincidences. Not by any means. ' They are pure cause and; effect, t Increase the workers wages! and you create better times as nothing else will do it At the regular .meeting of the Salem Central Labor Union It, was decided to secure' a visit and address from one or more of the officers of the A. P. of, L. while on the coast to attend the San Francisco Convention. A- ic-ommlttee was appointed and letters at once -sent to Intercept the parties en route West ward. A very courteous reply comes from Brother F.. A. Rust, secretary Western Central Labor Union of Seat tle, to the effect that he will do his best to make a date with the DunCan-KIdd- Lennon ; party for Salem, but that he has little hope of succeeding owing to the fact that their dales are all made for the entire- trin.' No expense ; will be attached tat their Visit except such as is incurred for the local preparations. -1 ..; . The spirit of the Statesman In giving us., a department for matters of inter est to the Unions, permits us to exem plify one of the vital features of union- Ism In working to build up and support home Industries and Institutions. This department will run In the Sunday and Weekly editions, -and j all union .men who desire to keep posted on the work In .Salem should subscribe for one or the other of these editions of the paper. The Statesman's typographical depart ment is now unionized and the. "badge. of honor," the union label; Is to be seen on all publications of the : com pany. We hope to see all Its employef earlyallled iwKh the Federal union II impossible to . Join separate trades unions of their craft. It Is the tight thing to'do, and will prove a benefit to both the company and the workers The demand made by th Portland ship carpenters for an eight-hour day at the same pay, $3.50 per day, has caused little trouble in the yards. In fact, the only reason that any of the m$n have been Idle was due to lack; df material and stormy ; weather. All of the Jobs are working on the eight-hour schedule with the exception of theO. R. &N. Co., and they have seriKall of their metv out of the city, way from the Jurisdiction of the union. When the company has anywrk to do they will have to ar thehours and wages or get no workmen, as ship carpenters are In demandeverywhere. The con tractors wereglYen wo months' no tice that tle new sca'le of hours would gc' IntofleCt July 1st , The -.wages havexremalned the .same since & year ig last May. The demand was simply 5 make a uhlform day, as some Jobs were working eight hours and. some nineTTind as' all other carpenters were given eight hours, the ship carpenters concluded to make ; It;' he same ;, all around. A number of mechanics have gone to other ports, where wages are even better than here- When one of the men was asked about their -trouble," he replied by saying the ship carpenters had no trouble. They get their hours and wages or they don't work on the Job. There Is plenty; of employment for them on the eight hour basis. : ; The Card and Label. . . 'Among all union men, and women will always be found a very active senti ment to have the card and label In evl ,i.nr. at all times as a test of charac ter, quality and natural rights. - At first glance this may seem despotic to the casual observer, but an acquaint ance with union methods and an ap preciation born of experience in places where the .worker's extremi ty Is the union's opportunity. It is different At tached to the card and label are nothing odious and 'everything honorable. They stand for fraterntty, fair wages, effi cient work, no "sweatshops, no child labor, and in short for the alleviation of every wrong and Injustice to which labor I subjected. AJways demand the card from the worked and see that the label is on everything you buy. If you will do this you will do more to es tablish, social -equity and Justice than you can In any other way. VISIT OF A MOriTKEY . UNCLK "BILL- ANDF.RSOX-8 FET INVESTIGATES HIS , SUR- , ROUNPINGS. Uncle Bill". Anderson's pet monkey which Is kept In a large cage at the rear or the saloon but manages to get out once in a wEHe. is full of all sorts of misfhevlous pranks and all who oc cupy that block are in constant terror of hlnv "v . t . Yesterday morning, as E. w. Rich ardson, who occupies the law office with his father in th Murphy block, was renovating the office he had occasion to so out upon the back stairway, when he beheld the monkey comfortably perched upon the railing coolly taking in his surroundings. Thinking to fright en the animal away. Ellis made a sud den lurch at him but the effect .of t action wan Just the reverse from what was expected for the monkey Instead of having a fainting fit or scampering away precipitately, showed fight and as Ellis took to his heels, pursued him Into the buildSRi and to the office door wherein Kills took refuse; Being thus aroud the monkey was monarch of all ha surveyed and pro ceeded to take possession of the flat. He found his war into IL -JC Johnson's office where he spied a' quart bottle, the . contents of which, benxine. not suiting his cultivated sense of smell, he de liberately emptied upon the roof of the awning. Bv this time all of the occu pants of the floor were art used and de clared, war on the "monk" but. by Shrewd system of attacks and retreats. he managed to keep them all at a dis tance until he had amused himself to his heart's content, when he leapt out of the 4ndow and whisked away over the roofs. ; THE BRITISH CABINET MUCH INTEREST TAKEN IN THE CHARGES BEING MAPE BY BALFOUR. LONDON, July CablnK-maklng la the absorbing subject of discussion here. During the wek the public was regaled with more or less shrewd pro phecies, but no intimations were given out by the Inner circle of the intentions of the Premier. A. J. Balfour, regard ing the successors of the Ministers who have already resigned or as to now far the changes in the Ministry may be expected to extend. It is Undeniable" that a very large section f the Conservative and Liber al Unionists are strongly dissatisfied watt taw ministry as at present consti tuted, said It. Is Increasingly apparent thai Jn spite of all the Parliamentary eulogies of Mr. Balfour, many Union ists believe that a government of great er strength and capacity could have been established with Joseph Chamber lain, the Colonial Secretary as leader. The opinion is freely expressed on all sides by Unionists, as well as the Lib erals, that the interests of the empire are now so complicated that they are sorely in need of the oversight- of a man of broader and forceful powers. ' The appointment of Mr. Chamberlain to the Premiership would have; been received with cold disfavor by the op position, and would have been a red rag to the Anglophobes, but never theless there Is a multitude of govern ment supporters who would be glad to have, him as chief, and the Associated Press Is Informed from sources of un doubted authenticity that Mr. Cham berlain's claim . to the Premiership would have been recognised as being better than Mr. Balfour's had he -not. whenever , occasion presented , iteelfn urged Mr, Balfour's succession against his own . One' Important and strong point of the late administration' which has. not yet become generally known, and appreciat ed, and which It Is feared Mr. Balfour will not fully inherit was Lord Sal l- bury's persistent resistance to Emperof William's efforts to entangle Great Bri tain in an alliance with Germany. These efforts have been made at intervals since 1895, and are likely to be renewed now that Lord Salisbury has retired1. The chief Immediate cause of rripre hcnsl6n, however, 1 that Mr;. Balfour will be unwilling tp either radically re duce the size of -the Unwieldy cabinet now numbering 19, tr making sweeping changes til K. Nowhere Is Its complete reconstruction tnore earnestly . urged than- among the Conservatives them selves, some or wnom proieas to rear that unless the Mini sery is strenathen- ed. Its support in the House of Conl mons will rapidly diminish. ' AN ENJOYABLE PAR H? MISS GRACE - RINEMAN ENTER TAINED HER YOUNG FRIENDS ON WEDNESDAY.

Liang- Chen Tung, who studied at Phillips Academy, Andover. from 1871 to 1881, under Professor Bancroft, is delighted at his appointment to the country where he has so many friends He says that the voyage of Prince Chea Is of great significance, as It Is the first -time in the history of China a Prince of the reigning, house has ever visited foreign countries and acquire- foreign languages. Liang Chen say this indicates a decision completely te revolutionise the present educational system of China and bring it up tf date. In fact he declares the Chinese Government has already undertaken educational reform on a large scale. ; When1 questioned onthe present sit uation In China, Uang Chen said that owing to the fresh taxation Imposed to raise money throughout the country for the foreign indemnity. revoKa and fan atical uprisings already had occurred and were likely to become general,.
