ENCOURAGEMENT. .
Mahanoy city Paper Approves q
Lnhnr MnNnmanf.

Labor Movement.
In reference to George Harris movement
to re- organize the NJ & L, A. A., the Maha.
noy City Tri. Weekly Record says This
movement has our hearty well wishes, and
The Record will cooperate to the extent Of
its power to make it success if it appears
that its sole object and aim is the organiza-
tion of mine workers to secure the rights to
which as workers they are entitled and to
place the labor Of the region in a more ia.
vorable condition in the matter of wages
If the organization had no other effect than
to prevent the downward tendency in wages
it would be mighty power for good. In the
many changes which are taking place in the
virtual ownership of the mines and railroads,
the mine workers are constantly menaced
with policies Of retrenchment which always
mean, first and foremost attacks upon the
wage fund, with their consequent demoral-
iziug results upon the welfare of the toilers
"But aside from all this, and apart from
any financial benefit that might result, it is
reflection upon the free workmen engaged in
the anthracite coal industry that they are
not as a class of workm united in some
fraternal and beneficial organization, having
for its objects the discussion of subjects
affecting them as workmen,, the care of the
sick and decent burial of the dead. Our
wor1ingmen support numberless social and
benevolent organizations, and uncomplain-
ingly contribute toward the employers fund,
but do not seem to possess sufficient inde-
pendence Of spirit to manage and conduct
trade organization of their own with similar
purposes.
''It has, of course, been urged that the
recent influx of foreign labor, of foreign
languages, and the consequent enstrangement
and lack of common interest between the
various nationalities, is the cause of this and
it is, doubtless in very large measure the
cause. But experience, elsewhere, has proven
that these latest additions to the complex
population of the mining region can be
gotten within the folds of labor organization,
and often prove more faithful and Jealous
members than those unto the manor born.
We are not, however, in sympathy with
suggestion, that these various nationalities be
permitted to organize seperate bodies and
conduct their business in their own Ian
guages. We have no faith in that method. 1t
will bring about enstraugement rather than
unity. Bring all together, exercise mutual
tolerance and forbearance, aud by this means
will eventually be created a homogeneous
mass of mineworkers solidly united and
animated with the desire of protecting and
elevating their class, compelling recognition
Of their just claims caring for one another
in sickness and in death. This is hope
that animates every friend of the mine
worker in this region and let us indulge the
found belief that the time is coming when it
will be gloriously realized"

The Executive Committee Issues Cau
For Convention

Fhe Executive Committee Issues a CAN
For a Convention
call has just been issued by the Execu-
tive Committee of the American Demonstra-
tion Association, including the P, O. s. of A.,
Jr. o, U. A. NJ, S. of A. o. U. A. NJ, and
other American organizations, for meeting
Of delegates from these respective organiza-
tions in Mahanoy City, on Saturday after
noon, November 18th, at 6 o'clock, in odd
Fellows hall. Owing to the failure Of the
convention at Schuylkill Haven on Septem-
Der I'd, last, to name a place for holding the
next Labor Day convention and parade, the
Executive Committee consisting of George
f. Osman, President, OF Shamokin; Wm. W.
Thorn, V. President of St. Clair; and c. T.
Straughn, Secretary, of Shenandoah, held
meeting recently and decided upon the
action as stated above, with the main object
in view Of selecting the next place for hold
ing the annual convention and demonstra.
ton.
From the number of favorable replies so
far received by the Executive Committee,
there will be a full representation at the
convention. Other matters of much interest
to the respective organizations will come up
for the consideration of the delegates, which
win make the meeting an important and
interesting one.

grotesque attires. They went about the
streets in groups stopping at business places and
private residences to sing and dance The
younger element gave the exhibitions with the
hope of reward in pennies, but the older ones

These serenaders travelled about in quartettes

pranks of the mischievous boys last night
was to walk up behind a well dressed man
and bang him between the shoulders with a
thin stocking filled with flour. Others
travelled around with potatoes and cabbage
stalks and pelted unsuspecting victims, but
all these annoyances were of minor import

Less dangerous, but just as annoying were
the tick tacks on window panes and the
ringing of door bells
Those who were obliged to remain in doors
last night or did not wish to make visits OF
walk the streets Of course found games ia
enjoy, and nothing was found more amusing
than "dookin" for apples and saucer luck, .
the latter game being played by placing three
saucers, one filled with water another swith
earth, and the third empty, in row. Then
each person takes his turn at being blind
folded and the saucers are changed. The
luck is indicated by touching a saucer. Il
the one is filled with water it will be good, il
the empty one it will be poor, and if the one
filed with earth be touched it will, il
popular parance, be a kind Of so So"
Inc mousse PdrJles were numerous and
some of them quite elaborate affairs but none

was a chocolate tea given at the Grant resi-.
dence on West Oak street by Miss Jessie
Grant for the benefit of the Presbyterian
church parsonage fund. The guests were
numerous and they were entertained in royal
