Organizer John F. Krieger will, at an
early day, call together the journeymen
horseshoers of St Paul for the purpose
of organizing them into union. 1t is
understood that this is at the request of
quite number Of such mechanics who
believe, under existing circumstances,
that they are entitled to better wages
than they are now receiving. 1t is fact
that the steel and iron trust has recently
advanced the prices of those metals ma
terially. Master horseshoers say that
they find but little profit in this business
owing to this advance and fully realize
that they are in the clutches of a trust
that is relentless and necessitates prompt
action on their part. Prices for horse
81 oelng must be advanced, they saw or
they will have to go out of business 1t
Is understood that such an advance has
already been made by some of the shops
The journeymen horseshoers seem to feel
that, in view of such a condition, forced
upon the public by the steel and iron
trust: that they, too. should share in
this trust prosperity" For this reason
they ask to be organized into union
that they may be better enabled to en-
force their demands.
What is true of the horseshoers is also
true OF many other industries similarly
affected by the epidemic of trusts that
has spread like wildfire over the country
Never before in the history of trades
nnlonlsm have the various unions been
stronger or has so much interest been
manifested in them. 1t is by such pro-
cesses as this that trusts dip into the
pockets Of consumers. No one can say
that horseshoers alone should pay the
added taxation placed upon steel and
non by the trust. This would not be
just or reasonable. 1t is tax that must
be borne by the community at large, and
will, eventually, be borne by every con-
sumner of iron and steel in the United
States. Thus, too, with all other trusted
commodities In the end the consumer
pays it all. AS competition has been de-
stroyed by combination it is, of course
in the power of united capital to make
any demand it pleases. Under the pres
ent tariff laws it is possible for such in
dUstries to make such combinations I'm
I'll the tariff law is repealed trades unions
will increase in strength and number in
mutual defense against Entertainments of
trusts.

vert and Hearn, Is reported to be in
sore distress, as result of the flood. The
town is under water, and unless the
waters quickly recede the situation there
will be very serious. Communication was
secured tonight with Hearne, ninety miles
north of Austin, directly on the BRACES
river The entire country for ten miles
is Inundated, and at noon the river was
rising slowly.
The work of rescuing settlers from the
bottoms in the vicinity of Hearn has been
going on all day, and the town is filled
with frightened, half-clad negroes. The
refugees report several deaths, and In
some instances whole families are unac-
counted for. The exact number of IA
taIities may never be known.
The entire Brazos bottom has been in
undated, and thousands of acres in Texas
stand tonight under several feet of wa
ter.

a movement very much in the nature
