ident Shea has been here since last week
and has removed his residence here. He
comes from Boston, Mass. He was formerly
president of the Transfers District Council.
Organizer Young has been in the city, but
has returned to Chicago. He will return to-
day for permanent residence Secretary
treasurer Turley is also here permanently.
All the executive officers will ultimately ar
rive and make their homes in the city. The
executive offices will begin business Oct. L.
Until then they are in charge of Dennis d.
Mulcahy, president of the Amalgamated
Woodworkers.
In speaking of the union, President Shea
said, the other day: 1.-The Transfers Inter-
national Union has only begun its march in
the labor work. 1t is really in primitive
state in comparison to what ii will finally
be. We have a great work before US and we
are going to set our hands TO the task. AL
ready we have elected a staff of district or
ganizers. who are working In different parts
of the country. From time to time we in
tend to put more organizers in the field and
are going into every commercial center Of
the United States and Canada and organize.
We expect to put competent and reliable
men in these places. who will properly care
for the organizations until they become ex-
perienced enough themselves to handle af-
fairs. The work is going under the guild
ance of Organizer Young. Before many
years all classes of transfers will be organ
lied aud members of the Transfers Inter-
national Union"
Transfers of the local union are much
ters being placed in this city. 1t means the
strengthening OF their organization, which
is in its childhood. The union has only been
organized for several weeks. but its growth
has been steady, until now it has men,

Der of the union said. yesterday. that al
ready they are feeling the influence of the
presence of the international body. Many
teamsters Of the city are applying for men,
bership. The members of the union have ar
ranged large open meeting for tonight,
which will be held in the Iron Molders' Hall
on East Washington street. All classes of
team drivers are invited to the meeting and
an effort is to be made TO arouse more in
terest among the drivers of this city. AS yet
the majority of the members of the union
are cab drivers, but a move is to be made
among the other classes. Merritt Long is
president OF the local union. President Shea
and Organizer Young will be present at the
mass meeting tonight and make addresses.
Besides these men a number of prominent
labor speakers of the city have been in
vited to talk to the team drivers. The meet
ing will begin at $50 o'clock.

The Offices have all been remodeled within
the past month and most OF the furniture of
the new headquarters has been bought new.
The officers of the union have been moving
in during the last week and putting the
offices into ship-shape order. There will be
about fifteen men at work when the offices
open. for the business of the union is re-
markable.
All of the executive officers of the Teams
ters' Union will be situated in indianapolis.
They Cornelius z. Shea, of Boston,
Mass, president; Edward l.. Turley, of De-
troit, secretary treasurer, and Albert Young.
of Chicago, general organizer. He was for
merly president of the Transfers National
Union of America. He is to-day considered
the most powerful labor leader in Chicago.
1t is said that in the hands of the teamsters
lie the reins of industry, and Albert Young
is. in truth. the driver. Behind him is 10000
closely allied teamsters that ready 10
respond TO his call. He is in position to tie
up every important industry in Chicago
within forty-eight hours.
The Transfers International Union begins
a new with membership of about 1Oo, =
coo. scattered throughout the United States
and Canada. At the time of the amalgama-
ton, the two unions were about evenly di-
vided as TO numbers, the Transfers Ma
tional Union being slightly the largest. The
latter's headquarters were formerly at Chi
cago and those of the Team Drivers Inter
national Union were located at Detroit. The
unions. now closely allied, are strongest in
the middle section of the United States.
One Of their efforts, however. will be to ex-
tend their strength into the East, until all
the large cities Of the country are thorough
ly organized.
The Transfers International Union does
not have beneficiary or liability fund, as
found in most of the other large unions of
the country. They state that their objects
are strictly commercial. The financial
strength of the union compares favorably

are organized. The men have various
grievances. They are not satisfied with
the ventilating devices in the mines, the
other safeguards against accidents, the
wages or the hours of employment. They
complain, also, against the employment OF
armed guards at some of the mines for
the purpose, according to the companies
of preventing strangers from tresPassing
on their property but in reality, as the
miners believe, to intimidate them.
Conditions in the northern field are not
so Objectionable those in the southern
field. There is less gas in the mines and
the wages are better. Northern operators
have been anxious TO see the same wage
scale put into effect in the southern field.
Having to pay more to have their coal
mined. they have not been in a position
TO meet the competition of companies OPP
Grating in the southern field.
Richard G. Brown. a member of the
Legislature, who is a coai miner and
member of one of the local unions in the
northern field. said Friday he believed
strike would be declared. He said the
miners had made every effort to reach an
amicable settlement of differences with
out striking. but that they had been ig-
nored by the operators. and that they
would not continue to work in the mines
under present conditions.
The blame for the failure OF the two
attempts 10 arrange a conference between
the miners and the operators is placed
at the door of the Colorado, Fuel and Iron
Company and the Victor Coal and Coke
Company. They are two of the largest
corporations in the district.

Lying at funerals was being discussed by
some Methodist ministers. An old, white
haired man said: Perhaps il is best merely
TO read the burial service over the dead but
1t is the custom In our denomination to make
a few remarks, and this custom Is one hard
to get away from. i have never lied at a
funeral. On the other hand, / have never
told the whole truth. Once at the funeral
of a woman whom / had profoundly adj
mired, ventured to tell little of the truth.
She was nervous l said, 'high-strung and
a little irritable. She wounded her friends
now and then with words spoken in anger
that she did not mean. But she was ever
ready to retract, and no one forgave more
generously than She Well 1 had loved
this woman, and / spoke Of her from full
heart as I'd have spoken Of my dead sister
or my dead son. But her family never for
gave me for saying that she had been irri-
table and sharp-tongued. They knew ii was
quite true, but they never forgave me for
saying 1t. Don't lie, brethren, at funerals,
but don't tell the truth, either

gravel is to be completely soaked with oil

THE lower house of congress has
passed pure food law and the bill
now goes to the senate for consid-
Grafton. At the present time there
is no legislation that will prove of
more benefit to the people. Short
weights, authorizations, and frauds
of all kinds, many of which result
injuriously to the health of the con-
sumner, are forced upon the public
by INSCRIPTIONS manufacturers and
dealers. The practice has been
carried to such an extent that il is
practically impossible to purchase
an article OF food that is pure. The
public is imposed upon both in
weight and quality and the best
way to get protection is by such a
law as that now before congress.

THE income of J. P. Morgan for
the year 1902, is said to have been
$50, 900, 600. That is 81, 900, 900 a
week of six days, 1866, 666 for a
day Of ten hours, SI6, 666 an hour,
and S277 for each minute during
the working day. These figures
do not take into consideration the
odd cents as they are too small an
item. There are thousands of in
dustrious men in the United States
who do not earn as much in a year
as Morgan does in a minute, yet
they contribute their share toward
making the princely salary of this
captain of industry" what it is.
The money comes from the pockets
OF the people, because the manu-
facturers and other interests that
pay Morgan must make their money
from the people. The income of
Rockefeller is equal to that of Nor
gan and is more directly contribut-
ed through every family in the
land who burns his oil. Is it just
to the human family that they
should be compelled to contribute
from their small earnings to such
incomes9 We do not believe it is.

A UNITED DEMOCRACY.

The following sentiments, ex-
pressed in the editorial columns of
the Capital News, should be those
of every democrat in the state.
They have the true ring: 1T is to
be hoped that the meeting of the
democratic central committee to be
held in this city on January s, will
be largely attended and that plans
for the active organization OF the
party will be agreed upon. II the
party could be united, if there were
a cessation of the internal warfare
that caused the recent defeat, a
burying of past differences, a sink
ing of personal ambition and an
earnest desire to build up the party,
all would yet be we'll The repub-
lican party OF the nation in no wise
is in harmony with western ideas
or with any policy that will build
up the great iutermountain section.
1t is the fear Of the growing power
of the west today that is causing the
republican members Of congress to
violate their partys platform pledge
by refusing statehood to Arizona
and New Mexico. And upon all
the issues in which this section is
affected by legislation, all opposi-
ton comes from the dominant party
of the nation. The state of Idaho
should not be a republican state.
In our opinion it is not a republican
state. Through an unfortunate
division Of the democracy, one
which was disclosed at the Poca-
tello convention to exist, and which
would not be healed before election,
the state went republican. The
The duty of democrats now is to
get together. The bitter lesson of
defeat should not have TO be re-
Peated. The Capital News will be
found at all times an earnest work
er in the ranks. 1t believes that
the growing power of the trusts,
the iniquities of class legislation
can only be curbed by and through
the democratic party. So believing
it has enlisted in the cause of the
people. Again, let US urge that
the democracy of Idaho get into
fighting trim, united and harmon
ious, at the earliest possible mo-
ment."

Pinnacle of Parnassus," a book
of poems by Clarence E. Eddy.
Mr.. Eddy is not unknown to many
people in Idaho, having lived in
this state a number of years. Many
of his poems are of a local nature.
yet they are inspired with the spirit
of the true poet and many of them
strike us as being of a high order.
Mr.. Eddy will make a name for
himself in literature. He formerly
