New York, Aug. 3.-National labor
leaders are planning an immense ma

la Dor organizations also propose to
maintain institutions for the care of
those who will not be able to find
Accommodations in the great national

President Samuel Gompers of the
American Federation of Labor, had ad-
dressed letters to the leaders of PROM
inent organizations on the subject, ask
ing for suggestions.
The first reply came from George w.
Perkins, president Of the International
Cigarmakers' union. Mr.. Perkins fav-
ors the project, saying:
Il would suggest that the institu-
ton be named the American Fedora

it be under the direction and control
Of the Aemrican Federation of Labor

the chief executive officers of the trade

of Exclusion Law,

WASHINGTON, D. c., Aug: a..
The Chinese boycott against Ameri-
can goods has begun in earnest. A
cable dispatch has been received in
Washington from Shanghai advising
the government that the boycott was
formally begun July 19. 1t Is stated
that the Asiatics are not satisfied
with the steps taken by President
Roosevelt in directing that the Chin-
ese exclusion laws be administered
with more consideration for the
Chinese The boycott referred to is
that declared by the guilds of
Shanghai and Canton. 1t is. also
announced in Washington that "cot-i
ton manufacturers, who annually ex-l
port $27,OO0,0OO worth of American;
cotton goods to China, are lining up
to fight the union labor influences
which support the present radical
administration of the exclusion law. =
European capitalists are undoubted-
ly melting the Chinese to spread the
boycott against American goods in
order to strengthen their own grip
upon the Eastern market, and pres
ent conditions are causing the capi-
talists of this country to agitate for
the repeal of the, exclusion laws.
They believe they would secure
cheaper labor on the one hand and .
wider market on the other.

SAN ANTONIA, Texas, Aug. a.
The spirit of organization which
seized hold of the Texas farmers q
few years ago shows no signs of re-
taxation. New unions continue to
be chartered at the average rate of
fourteen per day.: The average
daily increase in membership being
600. The union is now a recognized
power in Texas and it is doing q
great work, not only for it's members
but for all the people.
The following circular letter being
sent out by General Organizer John
D. Montgomery is briefly eloquent
of the growth and usefulness of the
union:
when the State Union of Texas
was organized at Mineola, February
16, 1904, there were 100 chartered
unions in existence. Today, sixteen
months later, we have $3.50

DETERMINED ON FINISH FIGHT
Twenty six Of Thorn from Duluth and
Superior Discuss Situation in
Great Northern Hotel.

Twenty-six of the striking telegraph
operators of the Great Northern and
Northern Pacific roads held a meeting
at the Great Northern hotel in Super
ior last night. The gathering was COM
posed principally of the fraternity at
by. Three of the gentler sex were In
| cluded in the number that were in at
tendance.
When seen after the meeting local
leaders stated that they were out to win
and would make a fight to the finish.
Long distance telephone messages
from st, Paul encouraged them in their
steadfastness that things were being
brought to a standstill on the railroads
affected by the strike. A communica-
tfon from Third Vice President Camp
| the train -dispatchers in that locality
Were preparing to join the strikers. A
message from cCrOokstOn was PRACTICAL
ly to the same effect:
All of the operators in the offices
of the two roads in this city are out
and three Of the Great Western train

four freight trains tied up in their
yards in Superior which they expected

them in sections. Between st. Cloud
and Minneapolis. a distance of 70 miles,
where the two roads run parallel they
are being used as double tracks, both
! roads using one track for east bound
trains and the other for west bound
trains.
One of the strikers said last night:
The bone Of contention now is the

a week and IL hours a day. We are

HE GOT "CHESTY. ="

A man out of work, and he looked
the part, when he walked into a New
York newspaper office and asked:
You don't know any place where
they're wanting machinists. do you?'
Receiving a negative though cour-
teous answer to his inquiry, Ne told
his story.
II came down from Schenectady two
weeks ago to look for job. I tried
Brooklyn, then Paterson, Passaic and
Newark. This morning I footed 1t
across the meadows on the Newark
and Jersey City turnpike. Couldn't find
anything to do in Jersey City, so I
slipped across the river on an Erie
ferry. I've been sleeping in Salvation
Army barracks, but I. haven't had a
square meal for a week. Now I am
up against it hard. Can you advise me
what to do?''
why don't you go to the headquar-
tiers of the Machinists' Union and de-
posit your card? You will be given
temporary assistance there and will
learn of the best places to look for
work."
Il haven't got any card. was
working in an open shop and became
careless about my union membership.
In fact I got 'chesty,' and thought I
could hold my end alone. Now that I
have lost my standing in the union I
realize what 1t was worth to me-"
This is true story, and it's moral
Is easily seen. It is brief but elo-
quent sermon for the benefit of the
short sighted workingman, whether he
be a unionist or a non-unionist.
