REPRESENTATIVE viii BE Better.


In view of the near approach of the
Duluth convention Of the Minnesota
State Federation of Labor it may be
interesting to note the conditions exist
ing in ST. Paul at the time of the last
annual meeting at Winona, in 1888. Then
St Paul was represented in the conven-
ton by but eleven unions, viz: BARRIERS
Union No. 81, with SO members; Book
binders Union No. 81, with So members;
Boot and Shoe Workers, with 160 men,
bers; Retail Clerks union, with so mem
bers; Cigarmal1ers union, with 122 men,
bers; Coopers union, with "a members;
Pressfeeders union, with IS members;
Plumbers union, with q members; Typo
graphical Union No. 80, with I'll mem
bers; Topographic No. Is, with 15 mem
bers, and Twin City Cutters union, with
IS members.
AT the Duluth convention, June u and
13, aside from notable increase in the
number of unions represented, there will
be also a proportionate increase In the
membership of each union. It will be
seen that the st. Paul carpenters were
not represented in the above list. Now
the carpenters have the strongest union
in the city, numbering upwards of AIS
members. No electrical workers were
represented. There is a strong and grow
ing union now in the city and it will be
on hand next month with its delegates.
a few of the new unions In st. Paul are,
as yet, unaff1liated. But in addition to
the list above there are now a fathers,
plasterers, stone cutters, painters, fur
riers. bakers, hack and cab drivers, boil
ermakers, musicians, leather workers
broemnlakers; machine woodworkers
bricklayers, iron molders and brewers
unions, all growing and many of them
holding meetings once a week under open
charters. Quite number of them will
be represented at the State Federation Of
Labor convention this year for the first
time.

Not So Many Will Go.

The removal of the machine and work
shops of the Chicago Great Western Rail
way company from South st. Paul to
Oelwein. To-, has created no little ex-
element among the local unions OF black
smiths and machinists. While it has been
stated that 1926 men will follow the shops,
with their families, from st. Paul to
Iowa, this statement must be taken sum
8Tano sails. Not one-half of the 325
men will go to Iowa." is the statement
of railroad men who are in a position
to know what they are talking about
Many of them will procure situations in
other shops. 1t appears that the men do
not take kindly to the idea of living in a
place where there is but one shop in
which to work and no competition. 1t
might be a long way to another situa-
ton should trouble arise in Oelwcin. Still,
quite a number have signed applications
to be transferred, and there will doubt
less be little difficulty in securing men
sufficient to start up the Oelwein shops

The Attractive Offices in the Union Block Occupied
by Variety of Concerns. o.

Stepping into the Union block, at the
corner of Fourth and Cedar streets, it be-
comes apparent to the visitor at once
are among the largest, best lighted and
best ventilated in the city of St. Paul. The
building Is most advantageously located
for all classes of business, being adjacent
to two street railway lines and within
hailing distance of all the principal
points in the business district. One thing
that impresses the visitor is the abund-
ance of light. The construction of the
building is such as to admit all the light
possible to get into large structure,
and there are no tail, buildings surround
ing it to cut off or evef>shara in the light
The court house and city hall are just
across the street, which increases the
desirability of the location many times.
The Union block, which is numbered
41-51 Fourth street, is six stories high
and is divided by a fire wall into two
The west half is filled with Offices and
the east half Is given. up almost exclu-
sively to light manufacturing concerns,
and from the presence of a number of
printing establishments it has come TO
be known as Printers block One no
ticeable fact about the Offices is that
they all face the street and this accounts
in large manner for the abundance of
light. The offices are fitted up in modern
style with all convenences and essentials

bling up from Its subterranean lake d.
rect to every Office in the building. The
water is largely impregnated with min
eral, which makes it delicious and health
full for drinking. In fact, 1t is just about
such water as many. persons travel hun
dreds of miles to get from the springs
The east half of the building is 1850 feet
deep and the west half 112 feet deep. The
building has an entrance on Cedar street
as well as on Fourth street, with eevat-
ors at both entrances. Besidessthe store
rooms on Fourth street there are two
large ones on Cedar street. There. are
tenants.
Within the last eighteen months ex-
tensive repairs have been made to the
/ building, which have brought 1t up to
the front rank Of the popular sky scrap
ers. These improvements include a new
roof, hardwood flooring, papering plumb
ing, and altogether the interior Is en-
tirely new. Among these improvements
was the making of the Cedar street en-
trance. 1t is a noteworthy fact that there
is never any fire in the building and con-
seQuently 1t is free from the annoyances
of SCOT and smoke. The building is heat
ed by steam which is carried into it from
the Court block by means of an under
ground tunnel 1t is always warm when
heat is needed, but there is never any
danger of fire.

Cigarmakers Are Busy.

On the subject of renewed activity
among members of organized labor the
Cigar Makers Official Journal, published
at Chicago, has the following to say:
Encouraging reports continue to reach
this office regarding the spirit for organ
iZatiOn throughout the West and North
west. There never was a more opportune
time than the present to extend the lines
of the trade-union movement in all direc-
tons. Labor is slowly but surely reaching
the conclusion that its only sure means of
protection, advancement and final eman-
cipation lies along the lines laid down
by and made a part Of the trade-union
movement. We again urge our locals to
press this matter upon the attention Of
the organization committee of the cen

sible as a union and as individuals to as

The webb Publishing Company.

The Webb Publishing company, of

guiding spirit, occupies a large part IF
the east half of the Union block with one
of the finest plants for the production of
agricultural papers and general agricul-
tural literature that is to be found in the
equipped with the best modern printing
machinery, valued at about $4,000. The
office is at No. AZ East Fourth street. The

Of any similar publication in the North

Webb In Fargo, n. D., sixteen years ago,
and eight years later it was moved to st.
Paul, on account of its rapidly increas-
ing business, requiring the best possible
facilities. Since coming to this city its
growth has been remarkable, notably So
within the last three years, during which
time its circulation has gone up from
5000 20 over 10000. This figure is reached

TRAINED RATS
Come to Regular Meals Instead of
Devastating the Dainties.

A large London meat house, which had
suffered severe loss through the devasta-
lions committed by rats, hit upon novel
scheme to abate the nuisance. A regular
system Of kindness was practised upon
the rodents. Food to their taste was left
for them at regular intervals. 1t was given
them to understand that the management
considered 1t a great pleasure to have
them about the premises. Also felines
were baniShed from the warehouse. At
end of six months the rats became quite
tame and would eat out OF the butchers
hands. The dainty meats reserved for
larger animals were thenceforth left I'M
touched, rodent notions Of honor being ex-
ceed1ngly strict. With the result that

crease, with no limit in sight. the firm is

unionism and strlkes.

In recent years IT has become patent
that all the strikes cannot be laid at the
doors of trades uniOniSm. More than thtS
1t can be asserted. that there are many
more petty strikes among non-union en-
ployes in various trades than there are
among duly affiliated trades unions. This
fact is accentuated by the position of the
New York Tobacco Leaf, official organ
of the opponents of unionism among to-
bacco manufacturers and dealers. On
one rage of this Journal is found state
ment that none of the big shops III Great
er New York are under control of the
union. On another page is a-~Violent out
burst against the frequent strikes in these
same big shops. The logic IF all points
indisputably to the fact that sudden
strike can and does materialiZe mere fire.
Quently in non-union shops tnan 1t pos
sibiy can in those controlled by the I'M
ion The reason for this is plain. I'm
iOniSm moves as a whole, not as an errat-
ic fragment. Being a larger body 1t
moves slower. To institute a strike In
union there must be, first, q grievance.
Nor is it sufficient that such grievance
be passed upon solely by the body of men
directly affected. Such grievance must
be reported to the National Federation of
Labor, and by this body to all the other
affiliated unions. Bv this process the
cause of the alleged grievance is submit
ted to cooler heads than those i'll the eX-
cited union where the trouble originated.
Having gone into the matter intelligently
and thoroughly the various unions before
which the matter has been laid pass their
opinion upon the advisability of strike.
But the non-unlon striker secures
quicker action. In the heat OF anger he
comes blazing with wrath among his fell
low Workmen and by pessiInistic rhetoric
excites them to the degree of immediate
cessation Of work. This, probably. is fol-
lowed by a lockout; new men are engag-
ed to take the place of the strikers and
not being backed by any other body OF
organized labor, the few weak non-union
strikers are compelled TO accept the harsh
terms of employers or throw up their
jobs.
