UNION OF TEACHERS
Visit by Miss Adams Increases Agitation

Visit by Miss Adams Increases Agitation
at West Superior.
WEST SUPERIOR, WIS.--To unionize
or not? That is the question before the
teachers Of the public schools. It has
been agitated informally for some time,
but the lecture given by Miss Jane Adams
of Chicago served to bring the matter
more nearly to a head. It is not un-
likely that steps will soon be taken to
form a union Of the 40 or more teachers,
most of whom are women.
For several reasons the teachers wish
they had union or some other effective
way of obtaining redress for grievances.
For one thing they have taken exception
to some very pointed remarks when they
were lectured at a meeting held for that
purpose by the superintendent. 1t has
ranked among the teachers to think that
they must do thus and so about some
things not bearing directly upon school
work or else be in danger of losing their
positions. Now they seize upon the union
idea as a promising club to hold over
those who would scare them. Miss Ad-
dams was prominent in advising the Chi
cagO teachers to form a union and affiliate
with other unions and when she lectured
here last night she gave the teachers much
advice and information and now they are
all talking union.
The First Presbyterian church, the old
est but one at the head of the lakes, has
just had a mortgage raising bee in the
effort to obtain 81, 900 which is necessary tt
clear up all the outstanding indebtedness
The congregation in half an hour raised
s1,190 and the chances are good for getting
the rest. In 1890 the church built a build
ing worth $4,000 and bought an organ
worth $1,000; then the crash came and it i.
