-nagers of the non-union
Apers serving on the Fourth OF
July printing committee had a
most salutary effect. The union
won many friends by it's con-
cessions, the printing for the
celebration all bore the union
label, and the attention OF
everybody in Superior was
called to the fact that the
Offices in question were rat
shops.
The parade was a complete
success.
The cigarmakers covered
themselves with glory by their
float. A goodly number of
cigars were made on the wagon
and thrown to the crowd as the
procession passed up Tower av-
enue.
The printers had a good turn
ut. All the union papers and
Job Offices were represented on
the float by little girls holding
banners on which were the
names of each union establish
ment.
The merchants were well rep
resented; also the bicycle people
and secret societies.
