TdPasa .Child Labor Lair.U'
WashirtSton, July 25, i National
child labor legislation o: protect
American , labor from competition
with the labor of children in factories
both at home and abroad,, will be
passed at the next session of Con
gress, according to Senator Lane, of
Oreeon. "The reason the Democratic
eanena refused to put into the tariff
bill tbe' clause" prohibiting the import
ation of .foods manufactured by chil
dren into- State where child labor
is forbidden," said Senator Lane to
day,.."was that we did not "want "to
weight the bill down with any more
subjects thsn might endanger it. - It
waa. pointed out in tbe, caucus that
tbe cheap jute bags used for grain
throughout the west are made by cuu
drea in India and that there is no
economical substitute f for thera. A
good many -other ; similar problems
were involved. At the regular :.e
aion tbe majority will deal with this
child labor problem as well as with
a food manv other matters or humane
legislation, butwe propose to; do it
systematically and not in haphaard
fashion.

Vienna, July 25. Dispatches re

cities. Under Enver Bey a large body
of Turks invaded Hulsraris; after the

' : , Pigtails Versus Police.
London, July 2."). The fewer the
pigtails, tlie more police are required
in .China. Shortly after the revolu
tion which turned the ancient mon
archy into a republic, nearly all the
men in the southern provinces cut
off their ones, and ever since, the po
lice departments have been yelping:
for a larger fnce. Sir Alfred Tur
ner, who l'as jiist returned from
China, today sa.-o this explanation:
' "TS'e "eomnlaint pustssled me until
I happsned to sec two batches of
misonera led thmi;h the streets,
One lot had pigtails, and these had
,all beewi tieil 4ocether. enabling one
polleemati 'to Iwfe'affrr the lot; Foui'
noluenen were needed to eseort an
gither and smaller batch of prisoners
who weere qucliss." General Turn
er was very much impressed with the
extreme youth of the members of par.
liment which Tie visited while that
hod v was its session. With few ex
ceptions all were attired in European
ress and only one of 700 had a pig
tail.. Tremendous and honest exer
tions are. being made," he said to sup
press the opium traffic. '
.. "it is a blight on ftngiana, ; ne
continued, "that such' a powerful
country has continued to force its
opium on China .for; so long. It
would really be to England's advant
age to help instead of hindering for
commedcial reasons, the stamping out
f the opium trade m China.
An Important Measure.
Atlanta. July .25. The passage of
the bill providing for damage suits

tbe most important general measure

on the ieround that it was too friend

them too wide a new.ior operation.
