Ponderous Machinery Installed.

Ponderous forging machines, heavy

shops. The last machinery to make
complete the equipment of the shops

day in the shops, and the round house
force is about complete. Additional
men will be placed in the blacksmith
shop as soon as the machinery in
that department has been mounted.

Thank you, SIR" replied John, his
eyes fairly sparkling as he thought of
the good news in store for Alice.
"Well bred, if they are poor" was
Mr.. Harris mental comment as John
and Alice appeared before him the
next morning.
Their fresh young voices and CHEEKY
faces charmed him, and before the day
was over he had fully resolved to adopt
the orphans.
''They haven't a relative that they
know Of" he said. 81 can never be
young again. and Beth can never come

Easter every day in the year."
That night Mr.. Harris had long
talk with his "homekeeper." as he
playfully called his cousin Sarah, some
ten years his senior and the result was
that John and Alice found a happy
home and warm hearts to care for
them. and all because of sweet memo

ON EASTER MORNING.

Beautiful children. whose voices sweet
Echo the carol the bells repeat
All in the Easter morning.
Did We know that before the sun so red
Had clambered up from his downy bed
Loveliest carols were sung and said
Early on Easter morning?
Out where the willows are bending low,
Out where the mists drift to and fro,
All in the Easter morning,
Little brown birds in quiet nest,
Twittering low meath mothers breast,
Say Spring is coming; let's sing our
best"
Early on Easter morning.
Dainty fernlets, in woolly fold.
Safely hidden from wind and cold.
All in the Easter morning.
Lifting their blankets, peep to see
What kind of place the world may be
And waken and rustic merrily
Early on Easter morning.
The clear little brook sings low and sweet,
Touching the pebbles with dainty feet
All in the Easter morning.
"Spring is coming; make the way
Green. where the flowers shall be some
day;
Singing. I herald the SUMS first ray
Early on Easter morning"
Beautiful ones ere the sun was red
Loveliest carols were sung and said
All in the Easter morning.
The light mist shroudeth the sleepy town
But the birds and the ferns and the brook
let brown
Sing in the gray. while the stars look
down.
Early on Easter morning.

Wage Scale and Strikes.
Communicated

There are many men outside the
union who labor under the impression
that the union adopts measures and
the men have to stand by them. AS
a matter of fact, the union does moth
ing but ratify these matters pertain
ing to wage scales. The teamsters,
the linemen, and in fact, all trades
transact their own business, asking
the unions approval, which is gener-
erless to fix a scale for any class of
labor whatever, that matter rests en-
tirely with the different crafts. How
very inconsistent for a number of
painters, plumbers, timers and other
trades making a scale for mill work
ers, or mill workers to fix scale for
teamsters.
This article is for the benefit of
those not members OF the union, and
to assure them that the union is not
the whole works." but subservient
to the different trades, and every
member has a vote and is entitled to
all the rights of member upon the
floor.
Another matter seems to agitate a
few; that is, strikes. For the con-
sideration of these / will submit the
following editorial from the Cigar
n akers Journal, the strongest organi-
cation under the union banner in
America.
The subject of strikes is one of the
most difficult problems that con-
fronts the trades union movement.
To reach a proper understanding, in
all it's bearings, requires years of
study and experience.
Strikes imply a conflict of inter-
ests between the contending parties;
on one side stands the employer de-
Tending his interest; on the other the
Aaborer asking for larger share in
the product. This issue cannot be
ignored; neither can it be avoided.
THE failures of untlmely and in
judicious strikes have forced the best
regulated unions, profting by past
mistakes, to adopt all kinds of regu-
lations and restrictions.
These restrictions are calculated
to avoid hasty and impulsive strikes;
to remain at work pending the ap-
prevail by the proper authorities is
one of the essential features.
"The poorest adviser in an emer-
gency of that kind is the man who
talks the loudesr, ignoring common
sense and appealing to passion"
The Western Labor Union will fol-
low just such course as far as pos
sible. We do not desire to put any
industry out of business, but we do
propose to protect our members n
case all honorable means of settle
ment have failed. This union is not
run by any one man. There is a
keen sense of fairness demonstrated
and arbitrary methods are promptly
sat upon" G. E. DMOREST,
