themselves in the majority, 1t didn't
take long to squelch the lawyer of

the republicans to go on record for or

Van Cleave is the name of the man
who succeeds Parry as president of
the National Association of Manufac-
turers. How fitting. it is that Mr..
Van Cleave should think at once of
the ak as the proper implement with
which to smash labor unions. The
noble sentiment he expressed after
being elected is that he is willing to
smash labor unions. The noble senti-
ment he expressed after being elect
ed is that he is willing to fight for
the interests of his association with
an OK, if necessary" There will be
blunt edge to your ak, Mr.. Van
Cleave, before you batter your way
to your high ambition of destroying
the trades unions Of America. It is
not possible to say what particular
type of industrial fakir you repre-
sent. 1t is plain, however, that you
have as strong an admixture of the
bully in you as have your friends,
Parry and Post. You have no chick

statement is based or the work of the
Bureau Of Census. which has just is-
sued preliminary summary Of the
statistics of six principal Industries in
Chicago for the year 1905, compared
with the census Of 1900. These six
industries comprise:
Electrical machinery, apparatus and

Furniture.

establishments in 1905 was $3.50 100000

ly. According to the census figures
the number OF employees were 2e,61a
in 1906. as compared with 25,345 in
1900. a reduction of nearly 5000. The
