ment is true there never ought to be
any hesitancy about treating with tho
men who have the welfare of indus
try at heart.
Organized labor is seldom unreal
sonable in its position when it is met
with respect and consideration. It
never is very difficult to bring con-
tending parties together when sitting
at round table. The only question
involved would be the recognition of
labor. and too frequently it is only
pride which prevents it.
Industry cannot be conducted with
out capital and labor. Both are nee
essary, and both must be considered
if we are to have uninterrupted in
dustry. So while hurrahing for Du-
luth let us all seek industrial peace.

DULUTH AND INDUSTRIAL PEACE
WHAT 1T MEANS?

Hurrah for Duluth That excla-
nation should be on The lips and in
the hearts Of every citizen Of the city.
This is not going to be little Du-
luth" very much longer. Slowly but
surely obstacles to it's progress are
being removed and the city is going
to move forward with wonderful rap
idity.
What are some of the obstacles in
the way of the progress of any city?
Chief among them is a rivalry be-
tween capital and labor No city can
be prosperous where investments are
uncertain and unsafe, or where labor
is not given it's share of prosperity.
Continuous prosperity cannot be ex-
pected if the just desires of labor are
ignored by the men who control the
capital of the city. This is economic
truth admitted everywhere by the
wisest students of the day.
Prosperity cannot be permanent
unless labor is employed at good
wages and under fair working con-
ditions. There can be no pros
perity unless there is industrial
peace.
This is why We want to see bet
ter understanding between capital
and labor in Duluth. The labor
movement of this city is in the con-
troll of safe, sensible and conserva-
dtive men who are capable of looking
lat both sides of any question involy
ing the welfare of industry. They
have the inclination to do this which
ITS evident from recent experiences
The corpol atoms that employ
in the city of Duluth

TIRE ELHCTION AND ITS RE.
SHIFTS

The election Of Tuesday last was
an endorsement of COOL government.
Dr.. Cullum's victory was a testimon-
ial from grateful people for services
we'll and honestly rendered.
From the beginning of the cam
paign it was felt that Mr.. Trevil-
lion stood no show of election. 1t
was not his year. Stronger men
than he saw the hand writing on the
wall and refused to become sacrifices
by becoming the standard bearer of
their party against such a candidate
as Dr. Cullum.
AS one of them put it when press
ed to enter the race:-"If was
elected Mayor I would want to do
better than any previous incumbent
of the office. I would be unable to
excel the record of the man who is
there now, and hence l refuse to
enter the race"
Considering the handicap under
which Mr.. Trevillion labored he
made most remarkable RUN. We
rather think that he received a large
number of votes because of sympa-
thy. All Of the newspapers were
opposed to him. This fact undoubt-
edly brought a goodly number of
w0tprS tn hiS Snnnnrt
DR.. Cullum will begin his second
term better equipped to conduct the
affairs of the city than he was two
years ago. This assures US OF a
better administration during the
next two years. Some necessary
economic reforms will be accomp-
lished. Some splendid business
changes will be made, and the moral
status of the city will be much i'm
proved by the adoption of some most
practical methods.
He will be ably supported in his
public work by council, thoroughly
in sympathy with his purpose A
safe, conservative and economical
business administration Of the affairs
Of the city will be the aim Of the
executive and legislative branches Of
the city government. ~.gs.. 49,. .,ss,.

BOILER MAKERS
STRIKE SETTLED.

All the rattle and clang attendant
upon the operation of busy boilershops
will be heard in Duluth and Superior
today. The strike upon which the men
entered more than two weeks ago. seek
ing an advance in their pay from the
per hour was settled last night by the
capitulation of the employers, who
granted the scale and received from the
men concession in the matter of night
crews and overtime.
An offer was made by the employers
yesterday afternoon of IS cents, but
the men stood pat for the last cent
and won out and an agreement was
drawn. up and signed by all employers
on both sides Of the bay.
The agreement, after providing for
the advanced pay, provides that for
all straight overtime the men shall re-
ceive double time on all repair work
and time and half on all new work.
But where night crews are found nee
essary time shall be paid.
The strike has been marked by peace
able relations between men and en-
ployers throughout. The chief diff
to have been a matter of the correct
etiquette in getting together. All the
way through the men have demanded
that the employers come to their gath
erings and talk it over, while the en-
ployers have asked that the men send
a committee to wait upon them. The
boilermakers assert that the fact that
employers on the range have been pay
ing SO cents FASTENED the decision of
the employers. and this is not denied.
It is also said that work was being
done out Of the city which belonged
within it's gates and that this further
moved the employers to compromise.
In addition to the matters mentioned
some minor details in dispute with re-
gard TO apprentices were fixed up BE-
tween the parties.
The strike affected the Northwestern
shops in both Duluth and Superior, and
the Gogebic shops of Duluth and the
National Boiler works OF Superior.
Some IS boilermakers and rs helpers
were out in this city and in Superior
about 20 boilermakers and IS helpers.

FEJERVARY DISCUSSES
CRISIS IN HUNGARY

BUDAPEST, Hungary, Feb. THE
hunger for sovereign power and the
attempt to restrict the constitutional
rights and functions OF the chief of
state In such a way as "even the presf-
dent of a republic would not submit to-,
are declared by Premier Fetervary to
be the real causes Of the crisis in Hum
gary. The coalition. he says in an in
terview, wishes to restrict the legal
sovereign rights OF the king in regard
to the control and organization of the
army and make them dependent on the
discretion of changing parliamentary
majorities. whereas the right of parlia-
ment is limited by law to approval or
rejection Of votes for army credits ana

all who rejoice ia progress. who cherish
hopes Of a time when wars shall cease.
Its success will bring not only new
visible possessions of what they have
earned, but, beyond these, new desires,
new Inspirations.
1t Is we'll that the day has come when
those who toll rear temples of their
own. For generations and for ages
they have builded for others. They
have dug the trenches. they have laid
the foundations, they have raised the
pillars and the walls, they have woven
in space the roof-webs Of mighty struc-
lures, they have carved friezes and cap
itals. they have mixed and laid on the
colors that gave the last touch of
beauty and splendor to a million pal
aces, and in them all they have had no
part when their 1abors were complete.
But through the long stretch Of time
the uplifting has not been Of material
things alone. There are no longer the
downcast eyes of sullen slaves driven
to their tasks, the bent forms of I'M
willing laborers. Even under their bur-
dens the shoulders have grown sturdy
and broad, to the nobility of their
work their eyes have been lifted. With
the slow training Of the band has come
but still more slowly, the awakening
of a sense of the workers power And
at length, in these golden days, the
wondrous possibilities of cooperation
for themselves have dawned upon the
to1l1ng masses. In those happy lands
where unjust laws have not taken from
the people the right Of access to the
bountiful gifts OF nature there is
future OF joyful use and dedication that
as yet is but dimly foreseen.

Character Assassin Attempts
to Discredit Work Of AS
sembly President.
Writes Anonymous Letter to
Tom Trevillion- Says Things
Which Are Not True.

Some person, signing himself "A Del
egate to the Trades and Labor Assem-
niy' played mean act on President
JOS Shartell during the late campaign:
The man did not have the moral
courage to sign his name so that we
can merely guess who the disgruntIe
is.
>He sent letter to Thos Trevillion
in which he stated that Mr.. Shartell
was supporting DR.. Cullum under
promise from the mayor that the
Trades Assembly president would be
supported in his desire to secure pos
ition with the Panama Commission,
and that he was prostituting his office
in supporting Dr. Cullum.
Mr. 'Trevillion Immediately detected
something valuable in the letter for
campaign purposes, SO he sent it down
to the Switchmens union. Friends of
Shartell in the union appraised him of
what was being done. and he lost no
time in calling upon Mr.. Trevillion.
He told the genial Tom that he was
for Dr. Cullum as any citizen had
right to be; that he was not using his
office for political purposes; that he
had gotten no promise from DR.. Gull
AuA41, Ao1 dShcA 1OA any, anu ANdL lie
was supporting the doctor because of
his record and his friendship for or
ganfzed labor. He also assured Mr..
Trevillion that If he was elected mayor,
and proved to be as good a friend
to union labor as was DR.. Cullum that
he too would receive his support two
years hence
Mr.. Trevillion admitted that this was
quite the manly thing, and no further
use was made of the letter.
But the man who wrote the letter
must feel proud of himself. 1t was
indeed a most cowardly act as it was
untruthful We would have been will
ling to make a reasonable allowance
If the writer had the courage to sign
his name, but that is not the way
of character assassins. They creep
about under cover, in the shadow of
deceit, and their venomous dagger is
thrust to the back and from a source
least expected.
All who know Joe Shartell will agree
with the Labor World that he is one of
men in the labor movement. His one
purpose to is serve labor. and while
the writer of the anonymous letter may
question his motive there are enough
honorable men in the movement who
will support him in his worthy work.

say, give it up and then you would
say, So did the other donkey"
Robert-"Not at all. my dear man.
Work it out; it's quite simple"
