The Saltwater strike.

To the Labor Editor of the Globe.
1 am wUrkIngman of Saltwater,
where their now exists a strike of the
employees of the Saltwater boo m cor
poration. This strike was brought
wages. The first cut they made on
labor was in the spring of ga reduc.
ton OF % cents per day. This was not
sufficient to bring the laboring people
of Saltwater to their knees before their
oppressors. So in the spring of the
present year second reduction of the
same amount was levied upon the wage
workers of the boom, reducing their
wages to from IS cents to 81 per day.
each day consisting of eleven hours of
labor, and employing their lahorers on
an average of four days out of each
week. The men labored on faithfully
through the summer months until last
Monday, when they asked for little
increase in their salary, and were re-
fused.
This had tendency to make them
quit work, though the Saltwater boys
are worthy OF respect for the peaceable
way in which they conducted their
actions since the strike. As far as | am
able to learn, this was non-reQuired
reduction on the part of the employer,
for lie received as much for rafting as
i'll former years. The material for raft
ing costs him Is or 20 per cent less than
formerly.
1t appears to me that the present ex-
iStiDg depression was taken advantage
of as means to subject the laboring
men at saltwater boom to want and
distress.

This is rather warm weather to talk
OH heating apparatus. Nevertheless. it
will be OF vital interest to many III the
near future. A few facts which we
will mention come from experienced
men-not from employers, but from
empluyeS-who have had years of ex-
perlence. First, 1t is fact that in
former years the mass of people using
steam and hot water apparatus have
neglected to have their apparatus in
spected by competent men until cold
weather has set i'll and they were COM
PEELED to use the same, and 10 their
chagrin found them totally unfit for
use ;then they sent for filter and found
that they were all engaged with others
whose apparatus WAS in the same con.
ditlOn, and their wives and children
were compelled to keep as comfortable
as possible by the kitchen range until
the arrival OF the filter, who is expected
to have Things i'll working order before
he really had time to lind out what was
the trouble. Our object is to awaken
you TO the necessity OF having your ap-
paratuS carefully cleaned and inspected
by competent men before cold weather
sets in and avoid the discomfort of hav-
ing 10 freeze or sit at slaves IN mid
winter and your wife and children
wishing they were i'll Florida. Owing
to the stringency of the times. great
many competent filters have left the
city, and in case OF such trouble occur
ring this coming winter great many
will undoubtedly be compelled 10 suffer
much longer than they have here

To the Labor Editor Of the Globe.
/ was pleased to read in last Sundays
GLOBE your rebuke of the Dispatch for
its reference to Engineer Best. Did it
ever occur to the Dispatch that the same
impulse-the same heart. brain and
judgment-whlch prompted Engineer
Best to save those lives at Hinckley.
also prompted him to 90 ON strike to
help the thousands of oppressed wage
slaves at Pullman? If by his bravery
and good Judgment he did good act at
Hinckley, was it any more humane than
his interest in the half-starving Pullman
victims? While the judgment and re-
suits of his Hnckley conduct were bet
ter and more successful. it does not fol-
low that the actin itself was any more
worthy his manhood than the one which
involved stepping from his cab and
going on strike in the interests of suf-
fering fellow workers. In fact, they
are on an equality; still. thoughtless
minds will commend one and denounce
the other-a result of our social and
industrial system. A. L.

WHAT A UNION DOES.

To the Labor Editor of the Globe
Allow Inc space in the columns of
your valuable paper to make few re-
marks about our union. The United
Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners
of America was founded in convention
at Chicago, Aug. II, 1881. At first it
had only IL local unions and 2.042 mem
bers. Now. in thirteen years, it has
grown to number TIC local unions IN
over $50 cities and S4,377 enrolled mem
bers. 1t is organized to protect the
carpenter trade from the evils of low
prices and botch work. Its aim is to
encourage higher standard of skill
and better wages, and to aid and assist
the members by mutual protection and
benevolent means.
1t pays a wife funeral benefits OF
from 50 to $50, members funeral Dene.
tit of S1O0 to 500 and disability benefit
OF 500 To 500. In these general bene-
fits ST., 3S4 have been expended the past
year, while nearly S7UU,000 was spent
by local unions for sick benefits.
1t has raised the wages in sos cities, and
placed $500, 600 more wages an
nually in the pockets OF the carpenters
i'll those cities. 1t reduced the hours of
labor to hours day in 81 cities and 8
hours a day in 4l6 cities. not to speak of
457 cities which nave established or 9
hours on Saturdays, and by this means
II. 150 more men have gained employ
ment. This is the result of thorough
organization, and yet very few strikes
have occurred and very little money has
been spent ON strikes by this society.
An Out-of-work benefit fund is almost
certain 10 be established at our coming
convention, which takes place Sept. II,
1894. at indianapolis, Ind.
Notwithstanding the hard times and
all our expenses. Local Union No. 81
has gained, financially, the past year.
1t is not secret, Oath-bound organiza-
ton. All competent carpenters are
eligible to join. Special dispensations
have been granted Local Union No. ST.
both for reinstating old members and
initiation of new members for one
month, also for carrying members. An
invitation is extended to all intelligent
mechanics of st. Paul to attend an open
