SHORTENING OF TRADE LIFE

Perhaps the most significant feature
Of modern industry is the increasing
intensity of .exertion,. owing to the in
PRODUCTION of machinery and minute d.
| vision of labor. Where formerly the
operative could change from one occu-
patton to another he is now limited to
very small operation in large SER
les. He acquires intense speed and the
force of competition compels employ
crs to select those who excel in physi-
cal vigor.
To this is added the fact that labor
unions have quite generally been COM
PEELED to remove restrictions, which
often formerly existed, on the amount
Of work a man shall be allowed to
turn out. The result is that the trade
life of the operative has been reduced
in many industries. The superintend
ent of the free employment bureau of
New York says that the average wo-
man who earns her livelihood as do
nestle is commercially. dead after she
is As years Of age. There is no place
for man that is so years Of age, If
he is q common laborer; if he shows
his age.
A general complain: ass,..cs from all
occupations, respecting the shortening
Of trade life. Plainly II the increased
exertion of the wage-earner' shortens
his life period Of earnings, there ought
to be corresponding rise in the daily
rates of wages. In order that he may
retain throughout his life his original

O'Connor, Of the musicians, faced the
Chicago Federation of Labor on Sun
day. and pleaded for the young men to

begged the stronger workmen to let the

tractors" said Mr.. O'Connor "employ
'rushers' to push the work, and older
men are soon crowded out. We do not
think of each other these days. With
the railroads it is the same way. They
are seeking the young men, the Drawn
of the country. But they are employ
ing university students without expert
ence, and then youth is causing innu-
merable wrecks all over our country"
T. A. Bolen, veteran boilermaker of
sixty, said there must be some solu-
ton Of the question, but he had none
to offer. He had been out of work six
months, being turned away wherever
he applied. He said If the unions de-
sired to exist they must devise some
way to provide employment for the old
men.
John McCune, a gray-haired carpen-
ter, said it was the employment of chill
dren which deprived the old men Of
work.

LUMBER PLIERS
Held First Meeting Sunday After
noon at West Duluth.

Held First Meeting Sunday After
noon at West Duluth.
Nearly twenty new members were
admitted at the meeting of the Lumber
Pliers union Sunday afternoon, and
the leaders claim now that there are
less than a dozen men engaged in that
work in this section of the city who are
outside the union. :.
The meeting was enthusiastic, and
there was an attendance Of about us,
which filled the Republican club hall.
Pres. G. E. Johnson presided, and Pres:
Gordon O'Neil Of the Longshoremen's
union was present.
Wages were discussed, and the. gen.
eral expression among those present,
was to the effect that the men would
be entirely satisfied with the wage
scale of $2.25 day which governed
during the latter part Of last season.
It was also the ruling opinion appar-
emily that there would be no objection
on the part of the mill companies to
that rate.
The men feel thatthe organization is
in better condition than it ever has
been at the beginning of the saving

At the next meeting of the union, on
the third Sunday in May, the union will
elect officers for the. year, and also
choose delegates to the national con-
vention of the Longshoremen's union,
which will meet in Chicago on the first
Monday in July. The union here is en-
titled to two delegates, but it has not
yet decided whether to send two or
only one.

HOME UNION TRAINING.

An incident which recently occurred
in West Bay City shows the value OF
home training in unionism. A load or
coal was ordered for use in the home
of Henry c. Bounding. the organizer OF
the American Federation of Labor and
staunch advocate Of union principles
The coal came in the absence OF Mr..
Bounding. While the team was be-
ing backed up to the coal house the
little daughter of the family said:
Mamma, has the man got union
card.?' The mother said to the child:
20 yes, forgot" and to the driver,
"Sir. have you n card from the Team
the man. The lady then kindly told him
that rs they only received goods deliv
cred by union teamsters, the coal must
be returned
Accordingly the driver took his load
to the yard and a. union team y y was
sent with the coal. The proprietor said
to the non-union driver: II can't have
men driving MI over town and back
with coal. If this is the way it is 60
ing to be, you can join the union or
leave the yard" At the next meeting
of the Transfers Union there was a
proposition for membership, one more
union man added to the list One more
proprietor learned the lesson Of SELF
interest. All because a rosy-cheeked
little girl had heard union talk at
home. Where father is union man
and mother belongs to the Woman's
Label League the children will be GER
tain to grow up strong in the faith

MARSHALL'S VIEWS.
Says That Labor Ii Responsible for
Hi1h Prices.

Says That Labor IL Responsible for
High Prices.
In an interview in the News Tribune,
A. M. Marshall, of the Marshall-Wells
Hardware company, which" recently
joined the $120,000,0 900 hardware trust,
among other things gives the follow
ing reason for high cost of building in
Duluth: -.
Labor organizations have been
somewhat arbitrary in, schedules of
wages and hours Of work. Shorter
hours and more pay obtain here than
in any city Of similar size that I know
of. All this, of course counts in the
cost of buildings, and may deter many
from going ahead with improvements"
This phase of it. will be discussed at
length in the next issue OF this paper,
but we wonder If the new, hardware
trust will Decrease the cost Of hardware
for building purposes. Any criticism Of
the demands Of labor, (the under dog
in this commercial fight, comes with
poor grace from those who are trusti-
flying their institutions for the sole
purpose of enlarging their profits.

1t was not long after the men quit

company met with Business Agent
Baker and others, and made verbal

BUILDING CONTRACTORS.

News Of Interest Among the Builders
of the City.
Pearson and Fawcett have about
completed their work on the public IL
brary. This firm is also rushing the
Yale laundry and Haley's building.
Mcleod and Smith are preparing to
begin work on the enlargement Of the
Glass Block store. It is to be five
stories high and will be finished before
fall.
George Lounsberry is pushing work
on the St. Louis hotel job. The brick
layers have completed one story al
ready.
Watterworth and Fee have secured
the contract for constructing the Kelly
How company building. John Wangen-
stein is the architect.
All the large firms in the city are
employing union carpenters, and it is
likely that they will continue to do so
throughout the season.
Work on the Dickerman block, on
Michigan street, which is being recon-
structed by Chris Evans, has been de-
layed for want of fir. The severe snow
storms in the west are the cause OF
scarcity of fir here.
The architects have plans ready for
Louis Loeb's new block on Lake ave.
nue. and Michigan street. There Is
strong competition among the contract
ors for the job.
The builders exchange is quite popu-
lar with the contractors. One clause
in their constitution that may be OF
interest to union labor, is that for
bidding any member to belong to
trade union.
