One day, when they we're rushing
things in the mill where the other
boy was working-they had a rush
order to get out shingles to cover a
building where there was going to

against one of the saws and got cut

One of the girls fell down the ell
evator shaft in the store where she
was working and got crippled for life,

and blowed in all of the three dol
lars a week and hadn't saved any
thing, why of course they sent her
to the poor farm. That's a lesson

they'll probably start in and lay
up something for a rainy day, like |
am doing"
The other girl who was working
in the store married a "sheeney, 4"
and got a divorce from him and
married an Italian, and he cut her
throat. That's nothing" l thought,

Covers Montana
Situation Well

The following letter by a comrade
in Oregon to the Socialist paper of
that state, The Real ISSUE" is very
applicable to the situation in Mon
tana, and we reproduce it for the
benefit of our readers:
Mulino, Ore, Nov. 20, 1904.
wish to say a few words regard
ing speakers as has been discussed
in the Real Issue. / doubt the wis
dom of placing speakers in the state
at the present time. To my mind
the money could be better expended
in other ways, because few, if any,
persons come to hear them except
those who are already Socialists.
What we need is organization and
education. Let us make three To-
Gals of FIVE members each enough
for county organization. These
comrades can elect a county com
mittee of three members and a
county chairman, who shall be a
combined county secretary, treas
urer and information agent; and now
comes the important part of his
work. Let him systematically take
the names of every voter in each
precinct from the registration books.
have printed blanks to place the
name, post office address, business,
present political party, religious
beliefs and church, and any other
information that may be useful to
the county committee. These blanks
can be sent to somere liable com
rade in each precinct to be filled out
and returned TO the chairman, who
will send by mail literature to each
one as he may need. In precincts
where there is no comrade who is
competent to furnish the needed in
formation, someone can be secured
to spend few days in this precinct,
Montana news. [volume] (Lewistown, Mont.) 1904-191?, 1904-12-21

hold few meetings, and find out by
visitation the information needed to
fill out the blank and return to
county chairman. The writer has
500 or 600 pieces of Socialist liter
ature which he would be glad to
donate to our county chairman if we
had one, but / am ashamed to say
that Clackamas county which polls
500 votes has no county organiza-
ton. understand that much the
same condition exists in other coun-
ties, and it is high time that we are
arousing the comrades all over the
state to the absolute necessity of
perfecting a thorough state and
county organization. After we have
bombarded the voters with judic-
iously distributed publications for
year, then about six months prior to
the June election of 1906, turn loose
all the speakers we can secure. We
can then be sure of better crowds
and results. | feel sure that this
plan will secure far more results for
less money than the speaker method.
Another very good way is for COM
rades to post up cartoons and other
literature on trees, fences, buildings
and other conspicuous places. Ten
dollars expended in literature will
reach 500 non-Socialist voters. $40
for a speaker will not reach ten vot-
ers on the average. Now, Com
rade Robbins, should like to hear
from you and other comrades in the
state about this plan. Criticise if
YOU must. but let us work harder for
the Cooperative Commonwealth
than ever before.
Yours truly,
CLAUDE S. HOWARD.

The workers of Massachusetts
should feel elated over the news
that Gen. Miles is to become adju-
tant general of the state militia un-
der the Dick military law, when the
new governor takes his seat. Cen
eral Miles will receive the full pay
of a lieutenant-general, which is
SIo, 500 year and allowances. In
addition he will receive as adiutant
general from the state of Massachu-
setts So, 600 year. As a retired
officer Gen. Miles now receives
sS, 500 a year. While he may re-
ceive a scale of wages slightly in ex-
cess of the average worker of Mas
sachusetts he will be in position
with the militia to keep the workers
working that they may make more
shoes for the people across the Can
adian line while they and their fam
lilies go barefoot. Governor-elect
Douglas made his campaign on the
tariff point and talk that under his
regime they would be able to sell
more shoes to foreigners, thereby
giving employment to more people
in this country. That's nice, too,
of the governor to give the working
mules chance to work longer hours
and more days to make shoes for
someone who does no work at all.
even though they may be foreigners
to this country, Oh, you working
mules You are the easiest dupes
on the earth.

S.L.P>vdea Of
Union Label.

the trade; how presently il serves to
place members of the union on the
employers pensionary list, by send
ing them over the country to adyer-
tise that particular employers goods
as union label goods" how from
that the label insensibly becomes a
tool in the employers hands in that,
tempted by the revenues which the
label furnishes the union, the union
officers will lend themselves to the
employer as a means to place a
competing employer at a disadvan-
ia e by refusing him the label. Fin
ally, it was shown how by these easy
gradations the label turns into a
means of grave injury to the work
ing class; it prevents the full organ
ization of the trade as a necessary
consequence or preliminary to re-
fusing the label to an employers
competition striking illustration
of which was lately documentary
furnished in the instance of the
Tobin Boot and Shoe Workers
union; and secondly, it debauches
the union officers engaged in such
practices. Through them it de-
bauches the union itself; takes the
union out of the category of a bona
fide labor organization, whose duty
il is to consolidate the working class,
and throws the union into the cate
CORY of guild. These and scores
of similar arguments settled the
question. The S. I. & l.. A. abol-
ished its own label. The S. T. &
L. A. having done so, and Justly too,
by what process of reasoning can
the S. l.. p. or the S. l.. P. man in
dulge in the very labels that fur
nished the arguments for the S. +.
& l.. A. to abolish its own1
The label, at best, is a delusion.
In very few cases does it really help
the men, and what is gained there is
more than lost by the loss of the
general principle. 1t is, conse-
quently, not because we are
ashamed to proclaim to the world
that our work is done under the best
labor conditions possible, that we
use no label even when we employ a
union that deals in the article. We
use no label because by the light of
our knowledge, to use the label is to
encourage delusion on the whole
gravely harmful to labor-and the
5. l.. p, which, while it does not
underrate, neither overrates the
vote, holds that, not by fomenting
delusion, but sober facts can the
working class be emancipated.

A local paper in the east contains
notice in its columns signed by a
party that persons visiting his prem
ises after night and stealing cobs
will be met with a warm reception
in the future. Now the question
arises where did the fellow living in
the city get the cobs2 He never
raised a stalk of corn, never husked
an ear, nor never shelled a bushel,
let alone stacking up large pile of
cobs. The difference is, that one
fellow stole them under cover of
night while one stole them under
cover of the competitive system.

Yours truly,
CLAUDE s. HOWARD.

In two local elections, the people
of Milwaukee, by a vote of FIVE to
one and eight to one, favored the
establishment of a municipal light
ing plant. Notwithstanding which,
ten democratic alderman and five
republican alderman have baked
the passage of bond issue for that
purpose. The Socialist aldermen
voted solidly in favor of the propos-
ition, as did a majority of the dem
ocratic and republican aldermen.
The only party not tampered with,
therefore, appears to be the Social
ist. Undoubtedly the people are
quietly taking note of this fact. If
the Socialist vote in Milwaukee is so
large as to attract national attention
and if it still further increases, let
the significance thereof be under
stood. Milwaukee is struggling
against the dominance of the "sys-
TEN" and may need a Socialistic
broom to clear the boards. Cath

Prof. Graham Taylor of Chicago
University. does not think that the
democratic party will go over to
Socialism, as some plutocrats allege;
and he gives an excellent reason:
II the democratic party becomes
radical as Bryan insists it must
and will, it may retard somewhat
the entirely distinct propaganda of
a very different radicalism by the
Socialists, but it will neither absorb.
nor destroy that kind. Nowhere
else in the world has the Socialist
party been appropriated by any
other, and it is sure to maintain its
uncompromising independence here
in America, where it has the freest
opportunity in all the world to sue
