Labor Forces Must Unite.

In his opening address at the recent
meeting Of the American Railway union
President Debs said:
" The forces Of labor must unite. The
salvation of labor demands it. The di-
viding lines must grow DINNER day by
day until they become imperceptib
and then labor's hosts, marshaled un-
der one conquering banner, shall march
together, vote together and fight togeth-
er until workingmen shall receive and
enjoy all the fruits Of their tod. Then
will our country be truly and grandly
free and its institutions as secure and
enduring as the eternal mountains. The
one supreme demand Of the hour is that
railway employees shall get together.
f they will do this, the officers Of the
American Railway union will promptly
and cheerfully retire to private life.
Neither the honors nor emolrments Of
Office will tempt them to stand in the
way Of unifcation an instant, and to
test their sincerity let the proposition
go forth from. this convention to all rail
way employees to meet upon common
ground and there unite forces for the
protection Of all Such an army would
be impregnable. No corporation would
assail it. The reign Of justice would be
inaugurated The strike would be re-
manded to the. relic chamber Of the
past An era Of peace and good will
would dawn Let Us all do what we
can to hasten the coming Of that day.

death brother. The constitution of the
United States declares such an act to be
treason. # such an act is not right, then
he who would commit it is not worthy
Of respect and should be treated as an
enemy. The Chicago Tribune says:
The foundations Of this free republic
were set upon mems free moral agency.
Labor unions today deny this inaliena-
bic right and teach resistance to it to
the death. They seek the establishment
Of a government that will compel each
individual Workingman to become q
member Of q union or starYe = It goes
on to fasten this charge upon the unidn
of the miners. Is Lit true? It is not. Just
as our federal government believed it to
be for the best interests of all concerned
for all the states to remain in the Union,
SO the intellig ligent workingmen believe
that all wageworkers should stand to-
gether, but organized labor does not at
tempt to enforce It's belief with powder
and ball. ID

- Slavery of Two Kinds.

Yes, there is difference between the
great American freeman who works for
wages and the chattel slave of long ago.
The master had to feed, clothe and
care for the slave whether he had work
or not. They don't have to do that with
the wage slave. - 49,
The master had to hunt up slaves and
buy them. The wage slaves hunt up
master and offer themselves for bare
existence. =
The black slave was put up to the
highest bidder. The wage slave puts
himself up and underbids his fellows
for the privilege of work. r..
The black slave never had any fear of
want. The wage slave lives in contin-
ued dread Of it. s...:.:@~.
The slave had a permanent job at a
certain price The wage slave never
has a permanent job and at an ever de-
creasing pay. In vii. ss*

A Story Ofthe Mining Camp.

Bishop Whitaker relates a pathetic
story of life in the California mining
camp. A man named Jim East had
struggled hard and prepared to lring
his wife and child from the East AZ
ter she started on the trip he died of
pneumonia. The miners quit work
to bury him, according to their GUS
tom. The funeral services were
hardly yer when the stage arrived
at camp, the stage arrival being the
incident of the day. The town was
full of miners, the saloons were fZll,
but when the stage arrived the usual
crowd gathered around Two or
three men got out Of the stage: then
they help d some n else out.
There was a sudden movement Of
the crowd forward to see what those
near the stage were looking at. A lit
tie woman stepped down, and the word
passed around the 400 men encircling
the stage; Its Jim East's widow
and child" They passed the child
