A MIDNIGHT FIRE
Geo. AnderSon's ConfeCtionery
and Tooley & Co.'s Grocery
Badly Damaged.
Only the Prompt Response of
the Fire Companies Prevent
ed a Disastrous Blaze.

What might have been a very des-
tructive fire broke out in the rear part
of George Anderson's confectionery
store shortly before two o'clock Tues
day morning. Clark Sheep had just
returne J from a sleigh ride and pass
log the building he observed smoke
issuing out of the basement window
Fastening to box thirteen he gave the
alarm, which aroused our slumbering
residents. A hurried investigation
was made and it was found that the
back part OF the store was on fire.
The Friendships were the first on the
scene, and connecting with plug
near by soon had stream Of water
playing on the flames.
The other companies came later,
and connected, and had everything
ready in case the fire should spread.
Had it not been for the timely dis
covery, the whole block might have
been burned as very high wind was
blowing. The fire had its origin near
the stove, which is used for the manu-
facture of candy. The room on the
opposite side OF the partition is occu-
pied by Tooley & Co., grocers. Their
stock was considerably damaged, not
SO much by the water as by the
smoke. The loss sustained by them,
we understand, is covered by insur-
ance, and the amount carried by Mr..
Anderson, it is SAID, will keep him
whole, or nearly so. Tooley & Co.'S
loss was adjusted by the insurance
companies on Wednesday morning,
and they were opened for business in
the afternoon.

ways clears away many of the mis-
understandings which might otherwise
remain. American labor is today the
most Intelligent, the best paid and the
most progressive of any in the world.
It is this because of the freedom and
spirit of our institutions, because Of the
great spread Of education among the
masses because Of the spirit which
has protected our industries and has
conferred great benefits to labor, and
be cause Of the conservative organiza
ton which has as whole prevailed in
labor circles. American labor is edu-
Gated labor. There was never a time
in the history Of the labor movement,
when as many bright, intelligent. we'll
educated young men were entering the
ranks of skilled labor, as Is the case
today. The effect of this must be the
strengthening of labor's cause every
where and cause it to become more
respected in all fields. Their advent to
the ranks has largely been the result Of
intelligent cooperation Of representa-
tives of labor bodies, such bodies as the
one now in session in our city, which
has given unselashly of their time and
talents to secure the benefits which
have come to workingmen everywhere.

be taken out and this tube restored to

Labor leaders at the head of labor
organizations make mistake by in
jectins too much sentiment and not
enough business into the union work.
Our idea is that it pays to be a union
man-it is business proposition-and
that idea should be carefully figured
out and made simple and plain to the
most humble man. It is all tommyrot
for men to be always talking about
what they are sacrificing for their fell
low men. On the principle OF s"us
crooks must stand together" every
skilled mechanic should be taught that
it pays to be union man.-Ex.
The labor world. [volume] (Duluth, Minn.) 1896-current, 1901-06-22

Help those who help you. Buy union
label goods and the makers of them will
buy the products of your labor. Every
time you purchase non-union article
you thereby contribute its price to en-
courage the non-union man to remain
outside the union, and you also encour-
age the employer of non-unien labor to
persist in the practice. See that the
union label is on every article you buy.
If possible at all.
