FROM FAR-oFF PORTO RICO.
Island Carpenters Want Protection Of
the United brotherhood.

AS the result of continual petitions from
local unions In Porto Rico, circulars have
been issued from the headquarters of the
United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Join
ers asking for expressions on the question
whether or not these unions shall be or
ganized under the jurisdiction of the broth
erhood. Many such applications have been
received within the past two years and they
were submitted to the General Executive
Board for action. They. in turn, referred
them to the annual convention, which did
not act favorable towards the foreign
unions.
However, at a meeting of the General
Executive Board held this month at the
headquarters in this city. the general Sec
rotary was given instructions to submit to
a referendum vote the question of granting
these charters. The circulars asking for the
votes were sent to all the locals of the or
ganization last week.
At the present time the union has in its
hands three applications from Porto Rico
one from San Juan, where there is a locaI
Of ninety-four candidates.: one from Ponce,
with a local of seventy-nine candidates. and
one from Mayeguez, with thirty candidates
1t is probable that the charters will be
granted these organizations, which comprise
altogether American carpenters.

Another Effort Will BE Made to Settle
the Wage Scale.

The advisory board of this district Of
the Big Four machinists was in the city
last week seeking a conference with the
officials of the Big Four, in the hope of
securing ar increase in the wages of the
machinists of District No. %. No confer
ence could be held, however, on account
of the absence of one of the Big Four Of
ficials from the city. The board will return
this week. when a conference Will be held
and the long-contested question of the new
schedule will be discussed to an issue.
The new schedule, which provides for a
slight increase in the wages Of the machin-
lists, was presented to the officials of the
Big Four several months ago at a con-
ference held in this city. Several confer
ences have been held since. but the mat
ter has never been satisfactorily settled.
d. w. Roderick, of Chicago, is the bust
ness organizer of the machinists' advisory
board.
1t is said that members of the Inter
national Association Of Machinists have
been informed through their president,
James O'Connel, by the National Meta
Trades Association that until they con-
cede the open shop and the right of the in
dividual TO work where he pleases there
can be no joint trade agreement between
the two organizations.

TRADES UNION LABEL.


One Of the most prominent as well as
significant factors in the Industrial world
at the present time is the trades union
label. Its growth during the past few
years has kept pace with the unions them
selves, until it has become so permanent
that one finds unionists demanding 1t on
all that they wear and eat. The time has
come when the manufacturers have been
forced to recognize the label or have the
sale OF their products considerably cur
tailed. The label has also become a factor
OF no little note in advertising. as a store
advertising union-made goods is always
certain of attracting the patronage OF the
laboring people.
On the other hand, trade unionists have
n slogan which. although not in words. in
meaning is buy union-made goods when
it is possible to get them" Consequently,
in their purchasing they always ask for
the union label, and If the house does not
carry union-made goods they search fur
Their until they are found. Laboring people
consider the label an outward manifesto
ton of good will between the employer
and the employe. Although small. the label
signifies to the workingman that the article
has been made by men who have received
living wages. and who are working under
conditions much better than in the earlier
days.
1t is interesting to know that the union
label had its origin in the anti-Chinese
crusades in California and was first used
to distinguish the white from the yellow
labor. Since then it has slowly made it's
way forward until it is found all over the
country. The cost of the union label the
employers have found to fully compensate
the increase that the label brings in their
industries. One of the best known labels
in the country is that of the cigar makers,
printed on blue paper and found on the
outside Of the box. In some localities it is
so necessary in order TO sell the goods. that
INSCRIPTIONS manufacturers have gone so
far as to forge the label. The cigar makers
claim that the union label on tobacco sig
mites that the goods have been made I'm
clean, ard ventilated shops.
Many fights, however, have been the re-
suit of companies to adopt the union label.
At present the National Biscuit Company
is involved in a free fight with the Bakery
and Confectionery Workers international
Union. Reports state that agents of the
National Biscuit Company are finding great
difficulty in getting groceries TO handle
their goods.

Duny Will Go East.

Frank Duffy, secretary Of the United
Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners,
will leave tomorrow for New York. from
whence he will go to Boston TO attend a
meeting of the Structural Building Trades
Alliance Of America, which was organized
in indianapolis several weeks ago. The
meeting is called to act upon a final consti-
tuition which the constitutional committee
will submit. Most of the delegates Will
remain over for the convention OF the
American Federation of Labor, which Will
be held the following week.
An article in one Of the Chicago papers
states that the Associated Building Trades
Council of that city has refused to accept
a charter from the new organization of the
building trades, giving as its reason the
failure of the new organization to secure a
charter from the American Federation. 1t
is said the Chicago Building Trades Coun-
Gil has never been offered a charter by the
Structural Building Trades Alliance. The
question OF the new building trades trust
may come before the coming convention OF
the American Federation of Labor.

The local unions of the Cigar Makers In
ternational Union throughout the United
States and Canada arc voting on an amend
ment 10 the international constitution that
will permit any union or any number of
unions to join in sympathetic strikes. Trav-
cling cigar makers who have an opportunity
TO size up the general opinion say that the
amendment will be defeated.
The amendment originated with the Den
yer cigar makers as a result OF the attempt
last spring. during the fight of the Denver
Citizens League against the unions OF that
city. 10 have all organizations of the city
join a general strike in retaliation. The
cigar makers struck against the laws Of
their international constitution and then de-
mandcd strike benefits. They were refused
and submitted the amendment to the locals
OF the union for referendum vote.

Reports from Colorado, the scene of the
threatened strike of the United Mine Work
ers. say that appearances now point to a
strike, as the efforts of the executive board
of the organization to prevent a clash now
seem futile. The operators steadily refuse
to confer with the men and it is expected
that soon $4,000 miners in Colorado, Utah,
Wyoming and New Mexico will go out on
strike. 1t is hoped by Withholding the call
of a strike that at the last moment Governor
Peabody will be able to secure the consent
of the operators to a conference with the
union officials. 1t has been reported that the
National Employers Association, which
claims to nave a defense fund of 100000,
will place this sum at the disposal of the
operators in case the strike is called. The
general feeling among the miners is to
strike as a last resort, but in any event to
gain their demands.
1t is said the call of the strike remains
with the officials of the organization. Presi-
dent Mitchell is at present in the East and
will remain there until after the convention
Of the American Federation OF Labor.

The question of jurisdiction between the
two trades of the journeymen tailors and
the garment workers. which was so fierce
ly contended at the convention of the
United Garment Workers, held in this city,
has finally been settled at Il conference OF
representatives in Washington. The con-
ference agreed upon a dividing line and
prepared a proposition for the amalgama-
ton of the two branches of the industry,
to be submitted to the locals of both or
CARNATIONS. The agreement provides that
the journeymen tailors shall have control of
all workmenr on suits sold for $25 and over
i'm the United States and SIS in Canada. The
garment workers will have jurisdiction over
tailors of all suits under these prices.
Miss Lillian Fredericks, president of the
garment workers union of this city, will
leave Wednesday for New York and Boston

returned from st. Louis, where she adjusted
grievances between the tailors and the gar
ment workers. She will remain In the East
