THE UNION.

We ask every reader CT our
paper to use every influence in
their power to encourage the
union of men in every vocation.
The trusts and combines are all
unions. They are and will be
the employers of labor, and la
Dor will be at great disadvan-
tage if it is not organized. Our
merchants and business men
should remember it is but a
short time before they will be
working for others. Great stores
at central points will supply
goods to the people in all parts
of the country. All business
will be centralized: TO meet
the coming conditions every
vocation should have it's union
for intellectual and social bene-s
fit and for the purpose # pro-
tecting the members in the
daily number of hours they
shall work, the amount of pay
they shall receive and the con-
ditions under which they shall
labor.

CAPITAL AND LABOR.

II We want to see every class
prosper. Capital and labor are
dependent upon each other. 1t
is especially necessary for capi-
tai to protect labor. The Ia boler
can buy and consume it he is
we'll paid for his services. If
his wages are reduced and he
himself driven into jdleness
through long hours and ma
chinery, a revolt is certain to
follow. He will tramp the
country, he will do anything to
avoid a conflict, but like the rat
when his hole is stopped in the
grain bin and he finds escape
impossible he will turn on his
prosecutor and fight to the last.
It will not do for the govern
ment to depend upon the CAPT
talist to defend him in the at
tempt to lessen pay and reduce
the workman to a lower level.
The militia are made up of the
people and the people are liable
to come to the aid of those being
oppressed, as was the case with
the riotous coal miners at Vir-
den, Illinois.
The labor world. [volume] (Duluth, Minn.) 1896-current, 1898-11-26

hundreds of thousands of peo-
pie engaged i'll continuous
sports, three hours daily from
this great waste should be given
by each person to productive
industry that shall add to the
happiness of others.
Thus when waste is abolished
all this of which we predict may
be, will be. We will gradually
attain that end, though the road
we travel will be rough and the
journey tireso1ne.
The labor world. [volume] (Duluth, Minn.) 1896-current, 1898-11-26

Labor is capital. It has as
much right to protect itself
through trades unions and Sc
cure fair compensation for it's
service as the capitalist has to
sell any piece of property for
the most money he can get.
The union is the only means by
which the workman can get a
fair price for his labor.

The Soldiers Wife,

He offered himself for the land he loved
But what shall we say OF her,
He gave 10 his country Il soldiers life
Twas dearer by far to the soldiers " ife,
All honor today to her.
He went to the war while his blood was hot
But what shall we say OF her?
He saw for himself through he battles tiame
herO's reward on the scroll of fame
What honor is due to her?
He offered hin self, but his wife did more
All honor today to her!
FOR dearer than life was the gift she gave
In giving the life she would u.e to save;
What honor is due TO her?
He gave US his life at his country g call
But what shall we say OF her?
He offered himself as a sacrifice,
But she is the one who pays the price;
All hOHor we owe TO her

IT is ALL RICH
Darkness Must Procede the
Day, Ignorance Preceue
Intelligence.
We Progress From the kawer
to the Higher. We Must
First Have the Lower. p.

Right, in the sense that con
trasts are necessary to enable
us to appreciate the highes and
the better; right, in the sense
that darkness must precede the
day, ignorance precede intelli-
gence and storm be followed
by sunshine.
We progress from the lower
to the higher. We must .rst,
therefore, have the lower. We
must have the bottom rounds
in the ladder, the caterpillar
before the butterfly, the bud be-
fore the blossom.
| Therefore, while we complain
of the wrongs as they exist; we
clearly understand that they
area part of the unfolding plans
in human destinies, they are
studies in the primary school,
they are the briars that conceal
the rose, they are the lightning
flash that clears the atr1os-
phere.
History reveals that the diff
ferent eras of business depres-
sion have been the periods in
which population from the
cities and thickly settled por-
tons of the United States dis
tributed itself into the new and
unsettled portions Of the cotn-
try. 4.
Left to itself, in steady ro.;nd
Of prosperity, population would
become congested in the .gEeat
cities. Nobody would want to
leave friends and associates un-.
less compelled to go out and
endure pioneer life.
Thus the introduction oflabor
saving machinery, combined
with periods of commercial de-
preston, has discharged the
man from the factory, brought
him from the old world to the
new, and had in the end bene-
fitted him immensely, giving
him and his family new life.
The time of general bank
ruptcy in 1887 scattered the in
habitants from the cities out
into Indiana, Ohio, Michigan
and Illinois. In 1847, the hard
times drove them from the east
ern cities over to California in
search of gold, and in 1867 the.
emigration from the cities was
large and continuous into Mis-
sour, Iowa, Minnesota, Wiscon-
sin and other western states.
In 1873 the financial panic
settled up the northwestern
states and territories, while the
hard conditions prevailing
since 1898 have done a wonder
full work in distributing popu-
lation throughout the entire
world.
There must be the pinching
grasp of poverty to drive people
out. Through this means we
are making all Africa to bloom
and blossom. Right in the re-
gion where Stanley found Liv-
ingstone, few years ago, there
are now highly cultivated farms
and annual agricultural fairs.
Throughout the length and
breadth of California are found
a new world, while the hard
times of the present will result
in the settlement even of
Alaska.

War is an apparent misfor-
tune. But the American revo-
luton seemed necessary to
start this country on it's way
toward prosperity. Our civil
war has carried a new era of
prosperity throughout the

where food grows without ef
fort, where little raiment is
wanted and nature provides ali
the necessaries of life, will sink
towards barbarism. The boy
reared among New England ice
and snow, where every comfort
must be worked for and earned
will attain the higher round in
the march of civilization all
this by force of circumstances
! y X X
The lesson is obvious. Ap.
!. parent misfortunes are bles-
sings in disguise. The. trials
that come upon us will lead up
to higher, greater, grander
civilization. This is all true in
economic conditions. We com
plain of the labor saving ma
chine throwing the workman
out of employment. This re-
suits in his going into another
field of labor where ultimately
his conditions will be better.
We deplore the closing up of
the small store. But the waste
of competition compels a
change. Of the four clothing
stores on the four corners three
are superfluous. The waste of
three rentals, advertisings,
=heatings and lightings of three
unnecessary stores the world
has endured about long enough.
A change is coming which will
result to the advantage of the
people.
The combine and the trust
will eventuate in saving the
wastesuf the competition here
tofore existing among the great
manufacturers of the country.
While this may enrich the man
ayers, the saving of waste will
immensely cheaper goods and
ultimately bring added COM
forts to millions of people,
The com mbinations in the great
through lines of transporta tion
will cul1ninate in vastly
cheaper fares and greater COM
fort in travelling.
We shall complain. Com
plant is the forerunner of bet
ter conditions. We shall find
fault with banking conditions,
with long hours of factory la
Dor, wit'1 monopoly, with the
averice of the rich, with the
grasping selfishness Of corpora
tons. This criticism, fault find
ing and complaint leads to in
vestigation and better condi-
.tions, but in all this let us not
be too pessimistic. Let US get
away from the struggling mas
ses below, climb up the noun
tain of hope, and resting on the
plain of knowledge, behold the
ultimate beauty, the joy and the
comfort which may be, and will
be, the lot of all in due time,
right here upon earth.
There is an abundance for all.
With three hours of labor by
each person every one may have
to-day the best of food, clothing,
housing, furniture, and dwell in
the midst of beautiful parks,
enjoy the perfume of flowers,
listen to the song of birds and
happy people, and participate
in every comfort. But we must
eliminate the waste. Of one
hundred lawyers eighty must
go into some productive en-
ployment. Of one hundred doc
tors, twenty must be employed
to keep people we'll and eighty
must seek other vocations. Of
every one hundred merchants
twenty may serve the people
goods and eighty should be en-
gagged in production. Of the

southern states, and our con
fict with Spain has quickly ad-
vanced civilization very greatly
throughout the world.
Let us not be blind. Let us
see and understand that trials
and hardship lead up to the
higher and better.
The boy, reared in a climate
where food grows without ef-
fort, where little raiment is
wanted and nature provides all
the necessaries of life, will sink
towards barbarism. The boy
reared among New England ice
and snow, where every comfort
must be worked for and earned,
will attain the higher round in
the march OF civilization-all

SERIOUS RUNAWAY.
Mr. and Mrs. John PiIlsbury In Great
Peril.

Ex-Gov. and Mrs. John S. Pillsbury had a
miraculous escape from terrible death yes
terday afternoon. They were the principals in
a terrific runaway which dashed down Henne-
pin avenue, and it seemed as if they both
would be instantly killed. Aside from a demol-
ished carriage and torn harness, the mishep
was not attended with any injury.
Mr.. and Mrs. Pillsbury were alone IN ;helr
single carriage, the ex-governor driving. At
Fifth street and Hennepin avenue the bit
in the mouth of one of the horses gave wav
and the team became frightened. Down they
dashed. They had gone but short distance
when Mrs. Pilsbury was hurled from the We
hicle. Gov. Pillsbury steered the beasss
in such way that street cars, vehicles, re-
destrians, bicyelists and curbstones were
lodged until Washington avenue was reached.
Here a horse and buggy stood in the way.
while on the ether side hydra1t prevented
passage. A crash came, and there was a
general mix-up The buggy almost went over
the heads of the horses, while Gov. Plllsbury
was thrown to the pavement
