The Department Aim a to Furnish the Business, Wop|d--VVith Complete fte ports on Various Subjects of Com- mercial and Industrial Interest—De- velopment of American Oommerce. Washington, Dec. 10.—The first ah- r.ual report of the secretary of com- merce and labor gives a full account of the progress made In tho organisa- tion of the department, discusses at considerable length the work, of the various bureaus, compiles with, > the several nrovisions of law relating to statements of moneys received ant! disbursed, and makes such comment3 and recommendations In regard to commercial and Industrial affairs as appear to be warranted by existing conditions. The following are extracts from Sec retary Cortelyou's report: The determination of those responsi- ble for the organization and adminis tration of the department to lay IU foundations on broad lines and to build thoroughly and conservatively for the future has been very generally under- stood. In but fow instances has there been any criticism of this course, and then only from tboso unfamiliar with the magnitude of tho task of organiz- ing «a new department or unmindful of the necessity of malting liberal pro- vision for its growth and usefulness. It would have been a dereliction oi duty, oven in tho face of a pronounced demand for Immediate action to cer- tain directions, to saortflce tho essen- tials of sound organization to n de3lrc to mako an early showing or to achieve immediate results from -ill- considered and ' lll-tlmed investiga tions. Tho light house establishment, bu- reau of navigation, steamboat tnspas- Hon 3orvlce, coast and Bcoilctlc sur- vey, bureau of fisheries and AtasKan fisheries, service, have alsta,d£ been transferred speelfically t o tho depart- ment. Various duties relating to ma- rine affairs, as the regulation of an choragos, regattas, hoarding vessel! and the enforcement of the St Marys river rules, have also been assigned to tho department The debates In congress disclose tho purpose to give the department general Jurisdiction over all matters relating to merchant shipping. Statistical Work. One of the most important branches of the d 0 P artmen t's work Is that ot statistics'. By tho orgranlo act this new executive establishment Is made the statistical department of the gov ornment The department aims to furnish the business world with more prompt, more complete and \more reliable sta- tistical reports upon the various sub- jects of commercial and Industrial In- terest Special efforts are being made to extend its facilities for supplyinc; foreign trade information, and more active assistance will he required from the consular service. Th-m relaU-cn of this service to the new department Is one of Its pressing problems, which In the Immediate future must be the sub- ject of-administrative as wall as les- IslafJve consideration. Essentially commercial officers, they should play a vital part in the extension of our for- eign trade. By careful supervision\ and timely and helpful suggestions reports of a more practical nature and of greater usefulness to our exporters than many of those hitherto furnished can be obtained. In planning measures for the de- velopment of American commerce it Is the purpose of the department to de- vote itself impartially to the various interests concerned in that develop- ment All possible means will be em- ployed for the extension of our ex- port trade in products of the farm as well as in manufactured articles. Wherever possible the co-operation of the department of agriculture will b? sought, in order that these two branches of the government service may work together for the benefit of the American farmer. It Is highly important that the active measures taken by the agricultural department to increase the productivity of our farms should be supplemented in every possible way by efforts to pro- vide a profitable market for their jroduce. , Bureaus of the Department. Following is a statement of the work allotted to the various bureaus! embraced in the present orfeanlzation • Bf the department of commerce and 1 labor, with such, comment and recom-1 mendatlons as appear to he warranted. by existing dondltions. | The organization of the bureau of, manufactures has been necessarily, postponed in the absence of adequate appropriations. No time has been lost, however, as the work of this bu- reau .in some respects will resemble certain phases of the present duties Of the bureau of the census and the bureau of statistics, Some readjust m,ent of the work will be required to- secure the best results from these branches of the service, arid the plans for redistribution of duties have not yet been fully formulated. These plans, however, wilL.be ready as soon as congress sh&3i have provided the toads with which to organize a new bureau. Under present conditions any work assigned to\'it could he carried oh only by the detail of .clerks from other branches of the department, anu no clerks are available for that pur pose. It is the duty of the bureau of cor poraliops to gather information on the subject of interstate\ and foreign com- merce, to investigate the organization, conduct and management of corpora tions and joint stock companies en gaged in such commerce (Other than common carriers subject 'to the juris- diction of the interstate commerce commission), to report the results\oi such investigations to the; president through the secretary of commerce and labor, and to compile and publish useful information «oaeernftis corpor ations engaged .In JntersUt* *ttd for- eign cwnroerce, including Insurance companies.' | As an aid t o investigation the 'com- missioner of corporations is given like, powers to those granted the Jnteratata commerce commission. Relations of Labor and Capital, N The department is empowered to ac% tralre and diffuse among tho feople oi tho Onitod States usefuf Information on subjects connected with labor, in the most general and comprehensive sense of the word, especially regard- ing its relation to capital, such as the hours of labor and tho earnings of hv boring men and women; tho means in general of promoting their material, social, intellectual and moral condi- tion; tho elements of cost, or approxi- mate cost, of products; tho compara- tive cost of living, and the Wad 61 living: the articles controlled by trusts or other combinations of^capltai, busi- ness operations, or labor, and tho ef- fect such trusts or other combinations have on production and prices; th* causes of and facts relating to all con- troversies and disputes between em- ployers and employes. * ' •> >.-rg9pltallsts atid wage receiver)} ara t© be trsatcd oft an equality, for in these matters relating to labor and capital and to their respective reprP sentatives the department must stand in the position of an educational office collecting and publishing such Infor- mation as will enable each party tn understand more fully tho provnlllnp conditions. Tho department has no executive fnnctions relative to the settlement ol labor disputes. It cannot Interfere on behalf of either employer or era ploye in controversies arising between them. The purely scientific work of the census bureau Is closply related at many points to the practical affairs oi the nation. A striking Illustration o( this fact Is found In the current inves ligation of the bureau concerning the receipts and expenditures of cities The schedule prepared for collectlns data relating to this subject has be come tho pivot around which Is now centering a well-organized movement for securing a uniform classification ef municipal accounts and a mere in telllgent presentation of them. I desire here to call attention to the recommendation made bv the commis- sioner general of immigration and the director of the census that provision at once be made by law for securing the proper statistics of foreign-born emigrants from this country. No sat- isfactory statistical statement f>f Im- migration and its permanent effect upon the population of the country can be compiled unless the statistics of Immigration are accompanied bv the corresponding statistics of for- eign-born emigration. Commercial and Industrial Life. In concluding his report the secre tary says: \The department deals with the great concerns of commercial and in- dustrial life. To be of service to these interests it must have their hearty co-operation and support. It must be a department of business. It must be progressive, but at the same time conservative. It must not de viate in its course from the pathway of justice, strict and impartial. Tt must be non-partisan in the highest and broadest sense. It must recog- nize no distinction, as between large and small interests, as between the affluent or powerful and the humblest citizen. \If it attempts to occupy a field that properly belongs to private endeavor It will inevitably fail to realize the high holies of its present well-wishers. It must adhere rigidly to the lines marked out since the foundation of the government for federal agencies in ex- ecuting the will of the people. If these general principles are made effective if conservatism and impartiality coupled with ever-increasing efficiency, mark its administration, I cannot bu: believe that this new department will become a mighty influence for good In our commercial and industrial affairs,\ PATROL OF AILAML Cruiser Watching Eastern End \i of San Bias Cpasfc.

I think it is only right that I should tell you what a wonderful effect Chamberlain's Cough Eemedy has produced. The day before Easter [ was so distressed with a cold and cough that I did not think to be able to take any duties the next day, as my voice was almost choked by the cough. The same day 1 re- ceived an order from you for a bot- tle of your cough remedy. I at once procured a sample bottle, and took about three doses of the medi-' cine. To my great relief the cough and cold completely disappeared and I was able to preach three times on Easter day. I know.that this rapid and effective cure was duo t o to yottr cough remedy. I make this . testimonial without solicitation, be- ing thankful to have found such a God-sent remedy. - • Respectfully yours, E. A. LANQFELDT,.M.
