TIMERS HAVE TROUBLE.

Some months ago the Timers union
presented demand for increased
wages and the eight hour day. The
bosses have taken considerable time to
discuss the question, and on the first
of May the union walked out.
Prior to the strike the union was
willing to compromise on the matter
of wages, and were willing to work
two hours longer during busy seasons
when men could not be procured at the
regular rate: This the bosses refused
and the strike is on. Now the men will
not return to work except they are
granted the eight hour day at the $500
rate. s~:.a
The union received q letter this week
from the Builders Exchange, bat they
thought that this letter should be sub
mitted to the Building Trades Coun-
Gil. The timers would be pleased to
meet the organisation Of boss timers,
but as the Building Exchange is q
federation OF builders. the proper or
ganization for them to deal with would
be the building tradss'central body.

THEIR OWN MEDICINE.

Lieutenant Governor Coates, in an
address before the Ministerial alliance,
at Denver, Monday, said the church
had deserted the laboring man, and
the men who supported it were the
men who robbed the laboring man.
Coates referred to the ministers of
the city as "hirelings," but got, no
further with his address. The minis
ters let go volley of indignant ex-
pressions and made such a din that
the lieutenant governor had to take his
seat to wait for it to subside. When
he arose to continue his speech, the
uproar broke out anew.
The ministers had probably never
before been placed in the position of
men whom they had preached at many
a time, denouncing them as "hirelings
of the devil" and deserters of the
straight and narrow path. Had these
men "disturbed the meeting" as did the
ministers they would have been damned
to the bottomless pit without further
delay

UNION LABEL WINS.
G1lhOO1y, Agent for Union Label To-
bacCO In i'm Town.

naccO IL In TOwn.
"Gilhooly' the original tobacco man,
the agent for B. D. and wineberrv
plug tobaccas, the best union label
chewing tobacco in the country, is Wis
iting in the city. Gilhooly was here
some months ago visiting the unions
and passing out samples of union to-
bacco. His methods are extremely
popular with organized labor. Most
firms manufacturing union label goods
expect the label to sell, but the Mon
arch Tobacco company, which manu-
features B. D. and Wineberry plugs,
believe in pushing a good thing along.
Quality and quantity goes with this
kind of union label tobacco.
The union label is a guarantee that
the goods were made by union labor.
Every union man who uses tobacco
should use union tobacco. It is a duty
that he owes to his union and to other
unions. If every union man used union
label goods it would not be long before
all labor would be unionized through
out the country.
Gilhooly was out to that strong
labor town, Butte, Montana, short
time ago. He visited all of the unions
In the city, which resulted in the sale
of a car load of B. D. tobacco. The
union men there evidently believe in
practicing what they preach. Every
merchant in the city sells union
label goods in abundance This is done
simply because union men there are
|. consistent. If your dealer does not
carry it call at the Labor World and
get sample plug.

The splendid achievements of Mr.. J.

is one Of which Americans naturally

which we do not propose to forego. We

AMERICAN UTLANDERS.
Many Americnns Are F1ockinE to
Canadian NOrthwest.

Many Americans~ Are: F1ockinE to
Canadian Northvest.
At a recent meeting of a Canadian
club in an American city one of the
speakers boosted of the rapidity with
which the Canadian Northwest was
acquiring immigrants from this side of
the line, and predicted that within ten
years there would be found settled
within the Dominion at least two mill
lion people whose birthplace of former
citizenship was i'm the United States,
says the Minneapolis Tribune.
Judging by what we have seen in the
current news of emigration movements
during the past few months, neither
the statement nor the prediction of the
Canadian orator seems at all exag-
gerated The Assiniboia country is
certainly enticing a good deal of the
best American blood across the border
but the interesting question arises,
what are our Canadian friends going
to do with these new citizens after
they get them?
We have only to bark back a few
years to the history of the settlement
of South Africa, to be reminded of
what infinite trouble Dom Paul had
with the British and other "utlanders'
who came to exploit the mines. The
Beers didn't invite them, but they
came, attracted by the gold, and It
was not long before they wanted to
run the country, on account of their
superior intelligence and enterprise.
No one anticipates any such bloody
outcome of the settlement of the Can
adam Northwest by the Yankees as
has resulted from the clash of Boer
and British interests in South Africa;
but there is nevertheless a possibility
that it will lead to important political
changes. If the Yankees number two
million within ten years they will con-
stitute in round numbers, quarter
of the Canadian population, with a
voting strength approximating half
million, concentrated in the fertile re-
gion ranging from the United States
border to the 55th parallel. Two gen.
erations ago this territory was the SUBJ
ject of fierce controversy between the
American and British governments.
The American war-cry annent the bor-
der issue, as history informs us, was,
Fifty four forty or fight" We didn't
fight and we didn't succeed in getting
the American boundary pushed north
ward to within 20 of the 55th parallel.
But who Knows but that what we
failed to get then, either by diplomacy
or bluff will some day come to us by
the peaceful vote of majority Of the
Inhabitants? 1t may be that the Do
minion authorities, in offering premi-
ums in the way of tariff rebates and
easy terms for fertile lands, are en-
couraging a class of "utlanders" who
will revenge Dom Paul-in peaceful
way-for the loss of his South African
dominion?
1t appears that Canadians areacom-
ing into the United States about as
fast as Americans are going: to Cana
da. This interchange Of population is
salutary. It means, some day, a polit-
ical union Of the English-speaking
races on this continent. :.

THE BUSINESS AGENT.
He Is the Unions Most Important
Officer.

He Is the Union. Most Important
Officer.
One of the most important positions
in trade organization is the business
agent. He becomes an employee of his
union and every member is his boss,
and they are in most cases very exact
ing and severe in their demands upon
him. The office of business agent is
one of the most difficult positions to
fill in any union, and no matter how
hard he works, or what great service
he performs for his union, it is never
appreciated, and if any one should
speak one word in praise of the service
he has rendered the union, the usual
reply is. Don't we pay him for it ?"
The business agent to succeed in any
union must be a diplomat and pos
sessed of great shrewdness. He must
be of very even temper and never get
angry when insulted by some insolent
employer or assailed by a member at
a meeting of the union. He must be
educated and competent to arbitrate
difficult trade problems with shrewd
business men. He must be able to
prevent strikes. and if one occurs have
it settled satisfactorily in the interests
of the union. He must perform diff
cult tasks at all times, and if he
SHOULD fail in any one it is an excuse
for his enemies to attack him. His
work is never done and the paltry sum
the union pays him for the services
rendered is we'll earned.

WHY EMPLOYERS OPPOSE THE
UNIONS.

The hostility Of some employers to
members Of trade organizations rests
solely on the ground that union work.
men demand what they consider just
wages, while the average non union
employees takes what he can get. The
one gets his rights through organiza-
ton, the other suffers through the
weakness Of individual effort, and the
weakness Of the latter is the unjust
