COUNTRY PRINTS ARE
STANDING BY UNION
Aitkin Republican Refuses to
Take Bait Handed It by
Typothae.
Editor Has No Fear of Union
Domination and Will: Stand
BY Printers.

The Tyrothetae, In its propaganda
work, is attempting to swing the coun-
try printers against the typographical
union in It's fight for the eight hour
day. A circular was sent to the Ait
kin Republican, but the editor Of that
breezy paper would not take the bait
thrown to him, and handed it back to
the typothetae in the following terse
editorial:
The international typographical
union has set Jan 1st next as the
time for asking a shorter work day
throughout the country, and the big
employing printers, organized into the
typothetae, are sending out circulars
to the country papers setting out the
grave dangers of union domination and
making stirring appeal to the rural
Journalists to join the typothetae for
mutual protection.
The cry of union domination has
10 terrors for the average country
newspaper. The scale Of wages in
the country, although less than in
cities, is satisfactory and the work
and hours are not such as to make
tho average journeyman printer pine
country between employer and en-
ploye are generally cordial, and there
Is no prospect Of there being any
change. It Is not the union that the
country paper needs to be protected
against, but the typothetae. That or
Eanization has an agreement to keep
up the prices of job printing in the
Cities and the bids on the state print
ing, recently opened, show that the
agreement Is being adhered to and
that the bids are nearly 100 per cent.
hiEher than has been paid for the
work before. But this is neither here
nor there. The point we wish to en-
phasize is that this agreement doesn't
hold outside Of the cities; for while
employing printers require the home
work, many Of them solicit the work
Of the country business men and offer
to do it at any old price, long as it
covers cost. This procedure Is an in
jury to the country newspapers, and
we don't believe any Of them will be
soft enough to join with the city
people in making war on the typo
graphical union. The editor of this
great 1anlly journal KNOWS SOmetnlng
about the typographical union. The
unions leadership has always been
characterized by intelligence and con-
scrvatism, and although we haven't
been affiliated actively with the boys
for some years. and do not know much
apout the prospective struggle, we are
satisfied that any demands made for
a shorter day will be reasonable and
such as; will merit the approval of
public opinion, without which no fight
can be won in this country.

Open I SHOP FIGHT has
COME TO. An EARLY END
New York Commissioner of
Labor Makes Some signifi-
cant Deductions.
Attempt to Discredit the Prin-
ciple Of Trade Unionism
Has signally Failed.

The annual report of the Commission
er of Labor of New York makes some
significant deductions, as the following
excerpts show: : :<:s : = =. 2
The attempt to discredit the princi-
pie Of trades unionisn under the guise
of establishing an open shop: has sig
nally failed. The public has seen that
a union shop may be truly open shop
SO long as the union itself Is open to
all competent workmen, whereas the
non-union shop, in which every work.
man is compelled to drive a bargain
single handed with the employer, be-
comes more often a sweat shop. With
the unions power broken the just and
humane employer is powerless to keep
wages and hours up to the former
union standard in the face of the COM
petition of, wage-cutting rivals.
"A newly-organized employers asso-
citation. likely to be radical when it
first learns its power, but experience
withstanding the rash conflicts preci-
plated in the initial stages of organ
ization, the public is disposed to look
with favor upon the movement toward
organization on both sides.
THE tendency of some of the asso-
Citations to make an issue against the
union shop has caused apprehension,
but those who realize the power of
public opinion as a regulating force on
industrial relations do not fear the
outcome.

HA1TERS' BOYCOTT AGAINST
ROELOFF WORKS SUCCESSFULLY

A Philadelphia paper says the boy
colt OF the United Hatters against the
Roelofs factory is proving quite ef-
fective. Roelofs had a very large trade
which he built up through the use of
the union label while he conducted q
union factory. Then he declared for
the open shop and thought he could
hold his trade. But now boxes Of his
unfair products are coming back from
as far away as California.

The state expects to file a counter af-

the evidence taken at the Hennsingsen
hearing at New Ulm last fall. 1t was to
