looks upon this superscript'on as
he draws his pay, the part OF his
product assigned to him by those
whom by continuous encroach-
ment have at last reached the state
of monarch, minus the crown.
He ponders long and earnestly;
out of many, one. At first sight he
calculates pooh! it is a farce. There
is no oneness. It is case Of every
one for himself, and his Satanic
majesty takes the hindmost, when
he sees the grasping greed of those
holding themselves up as paragons
of humanity, sweating their en-
ployes six days a week, going to
church on Sunday, beseeching
those that are his employees to come
with him to Heaven on the Sabbath,
but on other days while in his en-
ploy will not allow them enough to
keep body and soul together, there
by building up in the mind OF men
an intense hatred toward the pro-
fession. Again by his exceeding
selfishness he is driving the pure
minded female to lives that will not
bear the light of morality, and in
the agony of doubt the toi1ing
masses cries for deliverance, and
queries whether the motto is meant
for the Americans.
But courage, fellow wage-earner,
there is silver lining to every dark
cloud, and out of the chaos comes
system, a philosophical system that
has to some extent and will con-
tinue along the course to solve the
intricate problem. This is Trade
Unionism pure and simple as is
advocated, inculcated and in
measure enforced by the A. F. of L.
But the enforcement is not arbi-
trary rule It is simply recognl-
ton of right, and the following out
of principle. Autonomy or self
government removes every
chance of an autocratic or tyranni-
cal rule.
Therefore our craft organizations
are our salvation, federated into
one colossal body. One as the water,
yet as diversified as the waves.
This truly shows the motto as
authentic as the "eternal hills"
Now as never before, is the op-
portunity of manifesting the extent
of our appreciation of this grand
organization built on such mag
nificent foundation as E Pluribus
Unum. Men stand aloof from such
an organization. Damnant quOd
