material advancement--great as It haA
been-is not the central idea OF trade
unionism. Moral and intellectual. i'm
provement are the prime factors. A
fearing, Intelligent body OF peo-
pie, alive to their liberties and jeal-
Gus Of encroachment, with lofty aspi-
rations and &C. high standard Of pro-
gress, ever moving onward to better
systems Of life. are the ideals sym
bolized by trade uni0nism.
Trade unionism stands for liberty
equality and fraternity; it stands for
the liberty Of workingmen to arrange
their own lives and to contract jointly
for the manner in which they shall be
spent in NINE Of factory; it stands for
equality, not of wealth but of oppor-
tunity, and it stands for fraternity,
complete and absolute.

The union has had very successful
season; the members have been we'll
employed up to the severe cold weather.
The committee appointed on Work
ing rules will be glad to get suggestions
from any member as to any amend
ment desired.
The balloting on general officers took
place on Tuesday evening.
Several members have gone out of
the city for the winter, some to visit
their parents, others to work in the
woods.
Anton Ringsred has finished the
work on the Palladio and Alworth
buildings.
two handsome residences at 18th Ave.
East. The work is a credit to him.
J. Ryning & Co. has about finished
G. H. Crosby's residences, one Of the
best finished interiors in the city.
The bylaws have been amended, in
creasing the officers salaries in accord
'ence with the increase in membership.
The union is indebted to E. Goerins
cigar manufacturer for insisting on I'M

East 4th Street.
J. 0. Porlier & Co. has the contract

The Brotherhood membership has in
creased during the last twenty three
months from $4,000 to $4,000. The num-
Der of unions has increased from 52z
to $50. In 1903, 1868 unions received in
creased wages; 1S1 shorter hours anc
303 won without strike. This record
! will have much to do with the selection
of general officers. There is no doub

A MERRY CHRISTMAS,

The Labor World wishes every
friend and reader Merry Christmas.
There is something in this day that
tends to warm the chilest heart,
Whatever this something is, it has a
telling affect upon everyone. He must
be in desolate condition who does
not appreciate the good in Christmas.
The good will it inspires tends to
kindles aims to bring men closer to-
gether. If these are some Of the
things that Christmas does then the
day has noble mission. We should
so shape our lives as to make every
day Christmas day. Whatever prob
lens confront the world, and how
ever troublesome they may be, the
closer We keep to the spirit of Christ
mas, the easier and the more peaceful
will they be solved.
Let us not forget when observing
this day that each and every one Of
us have a mission of good to perform
in the world. Let us get every lesson
out of Christmas that will help to
make us better men and women. The
world needs men with good hearts in
these trying days of commercial greed.
1t wants men who will work and strive
to wrestle men with Industrial and
political power from the throes of
selfshness. Christmas days always
help to cultivate such men, and may
this day bring more Of them.
The Labor Worlds mission is not
to stir up strife among men, but
rather to bring peace. Because it
champions the cause of labor, it does
not necessarily follow that everything
with labor's desires attached to it is
synonymous with trouble. 1t is true
that unpleasant struggles sometimes
occur, but even these are far from
labor's choosing. We hold out to all
our opponents the olive branch OF
can be gracefully made to labor from
time to time without declaration Of
hostility, and without the surrender .:o1
an ounce of HONOR "- y
Strikes and troubles are not the
labor movement, but rather an inter-
ruption of the labor movement. II
both sides will but ado pit the lessons
taught by Christmas observance ir
their dealings with one another there
will be no danger Of trouble arising
In the struggle between capital and
labor, we never have known of ar
issue that could not have been settled
in fairness and justice to both sides
if the spirit Of the Golden Rule wa.
adopted. Christmas helps to cultivate
| this lesson, and let us all make thu
best of it.

YOU ARE RICH,
Have you good health, and a family

Have you good health, and a family
to support?
Then you are rich.
Health is wealth. It is more than
capital. More than labor. It is both
combined. 1t is ability, opportunity,
success. Without 1t the richest man is
poor. With it the poorest man IL
wealthy.
The trouble with most of us is that
We do not know how to make a proper
inventory Of the best things Of life
We lose sense of proportion. We put
some things too high and others too
low. We put money, ease, luxury too
high and good health too low. We
forget that many a wealthy man
would give thousands for stomach
And your family.
There's wealth for you, An incumb-
rance? A burden on your back? Man
alive, there's where you lose your
clear sense Of the things that are
worth while in life.
| One of the greatest needs of hui
man life is something to
live for.
The man who bears none of the
burdens Of family may boast Of his lib
erty, but the time will come when he
feels the vanity Of existence. There Is
no stern necessity upon him. Likewise
there is no divine incentive. AS thu
years multiply the emptiness Of Nft

But you:
You have an ihcentive-the creates

Life can never lose it's initiative TO

strive for, die for! Look into the an
swering face OF your wife. and. int,
the faces Of your children. How ricl
you are! Is it not SO?

BlLLETSS. FROM BILL

Never fail to do your duty to your
organization.
Strive to improve the opportunities
granted to you.
If you are not fair to your organiza-
tan you will not be fair to others.
Ambition, Righteousness and perse-
verance are a valuable combination.
Never imagine that your organiza-
ton is not deserving of your support.
Facts will hit the mark and ridlcule
will never win the prize for sharp
shooting.
If you wish to obtain a thorough
knowledge of the trade you must work
to get it.
A man that is willing to learn always
makes more Roadway than a man that
knows it all.
No matter if you have cause to sbe
provoked, never allow anger to guide
your actions or influence your Ian
gauge.
An honest difference of opinion is
always allowable. and generally leads
to satisfactory results if treated i'm
partially.
Always try to do your duty as you
see it; .persevere and be persistent in
the discharge Of your duty and success
will crown your efforts.
1t is said that lie will travel
thousand miles while the: truth is get
ting ready, but it is a noteworthy fact
that the truth is No. at the finish.
All unions if they hope to be entirely
successful must be prepared to meet
any condition or emergency that may
be thrust upon them. The surest and
only way to do this, is to raise and
maintain a strong treasury.
Cigarmakers who understand the full
force of the high dues and beneficial
system in the labor movement, can do
no greater service to- the general labor
movement than to continually preach
the gospel of high dues and benefits
among the other, unions.
