The American Labor Union Offers
Relief for the Wage Worker.
GOOD PLAN OF ORGANIZATION
Working People Are Turning in Thou
sands to the Young Giant of the
West Which Has Startled the
Multi-MiIlionaires.

lltlcal campaign is over, there should
be a greater effort than ever before
to strengthen the American Labor
Union wherever it has a foothold and
to upbuild the organization in every
city, town and hamlet in America
The American Labor Union has
passed the experimental stage. Since
the last convention the organization
has gained recognition and support in
almost a dozen eastern states, and
there is a steady stream of letters
into headquarters inquiring for in
formation and asking for organizers.
Our organization is fixture in the
| field of labor. Its permanency is as
sured. Working people the world
over now concede that there is in
| the labor movement of America a
distinct mission to fulfill and that the
American labor union is the only Or
ganization that can possibly fulfill
that mission. During the past six
months the growth of our organiza-
tion has only been limited by the
funds at our disposal for organizing
| purposes. Locals have been organ
lied in many eastern and southern
states, in addition to the work of or
/ ganization that is constantly going
on in the west The American La
Dor union is certain to increase it's
strength until it embraces within it's
folds the working people of every
| +av pitx Sfotn
America. The mission of our organi-
cation will never be fulfilled until
every worker in America shall be
| freed from wage slavery and the CO.
Operative commonwealth shall be es-
tablished
The American Labor Union is based
upon the grandest principles the
world has ever known. Its mission
is the emancipation of the working
class by the inauguration of the CO.
operative commonwealth, and its
method is the complete and perfect
organization of the working class on
both Industrial and political lines.
This is no abandonment of union
principles. On the contrary the
American Labor Union now has, and
proposes to maintain, the most etfec-
tive system of labor organization for
the immediate protection of the wage
workers. We simply reinforce this
trades union policy with a policy OF
Independent working class political ac-
ton, which, when perfected, VIII
make the American LABOR Union In
vincible in its fight with capitalism
Was there ever a cause more Wor-
thy the support of staunch American
manhood and womanhood?
Was there ever a movement better
calculated to call forth the most I'M
selfish, the noblest and best efforts
of labor?
If ever there was a time when cour-
age, independence, manhood was de-
handed of American labor that time
is now. If ever tremendous respon-
sibilities rested upon the promoters
of any great movement in The world S
history, those responsibilities are now
upon the members of the American
Labor Union.
The movement is too broad, the re-
sponsibilities too great, and the oc-
casion too critical to permit of preJu-
dice, selfishness or jealousy
