"FaiF Play
Discusses the Strike from a Bust
neak Standpoint.
(Communicated.)

New Iberia, La, March 20, 1904
To the Editor of The Iberian
City.
My Dear Mr.. Editor:
1t was with acute pleasure the
writer read s'The Local Strike" as
presented by Mr.. E. H. Lacroix in
your issue of the 10Th, and it Ger.
tainly ought to be source of sat
isfaction to every Union man and
Sympathizer Of Organized Labor
| to feel that there exists in the CO.
munity IN which he lives a news
paper sufficiently fearless and in
dependent in its policy to imparti.
ally present both sides. While
discussing the above named artic-
lie with one of Iberia's prominent
citizens it was suggested that your
correspondent present the matter
in business light to lberia's bu-
siness people as the aims and OBJ
jects of Organized Labor did not
seem to be throughly understood
here.
Believing that my friend had
put the matter correctly the writer
respectfully requests that you give
space to a few statements, the
truth of which cannot be denied
and which he hopes will serve in
a measure to place the working
man right with his friends and
neighbors.
The objects of all Organized b.
dies of skilled Mechanics, Trades
men and Laborers are Education,
Advancement and Prosperity,
That they are successful IN such
a crusade is very much in evidence
in every section Of the country no
ted for it's progressiveness.
Education is the Cornerstone
of Liberty; in Union there is siren
ght and with masses educated Ad
vancement is made easy.
As prosperity is that which il
universally desired by mankind VI
wish to prove that through thu
untiring efforts of Organized Labo1
alene, is Prosperity to the produ-
Ger assured.
Is it best for the man or woman
dependent upon his or her effort
for a living; is it best for the mer
chant to do business in a comuni

For an answer 10 the second ask
That People which furni shes to
the world it's most brilliant Flnan
ciers and Merchant Princes-The
Jews.
The working man or woman
should certainly know whether
short hours and good pay make his
or her condition in life more agre-
cable. The merchant does know
that it makes his business more
profitable placing as it does a grea
ter volume of money in the hands
of the masses who are by virtue of
majority the consumers and the
commercial traveller will tell you
that he sells greatest quantities
and best qualities of goods in those
sections Of his territory where Or
ganized Labor Is strongest.
The Jew, who it must be admit
ed, is always the first to grasp the
situation and take advantage of
every opportunity presented has
been and is today the strongest
supporter of Unionism. We be-
leiye we can make this claim with
out fear of contradiction as your
correspondent has made careful
study of this matter in % States
and more than $50 Cities and town
in this Grand American Union
and finds this to be q fact. The
bitterest antagonists Of Organized
Labor are men who have organiz-
ed Stock Companies, Trusts and
Combines with the object of fore

price of labor down, therby retain

Editor Free Press: "a
Having noticed tho communica.
ton of Robert q. Bailey, Of Dixie,
Idaho, headed q "Protest Against
Graft" I ask space in your valu-
able paper to reply:
I am well aware OF the fact that

don't arrive on time, if baggage is
laid over, If express packages DOM
get here on the day advice is re-
ceived, or if the roads are fenced,
grade slid out or grade blocked by
some mishap to freight or other
team, they lay it all to the stage
company.
Mr.. Bailey has rushed into print
and laid his complaint before the
public and charged the stage com.
pany with graft, and has mistated
the facts. 1t is true his package
was plainly marked Dixie, Idaho

that the billing Office, way back in
Missouri, billed it to Grangeville
