SEVENTY YEARS BEHIND

Labor Commissioner Sherman, of
New York State, declares in his Off
cial bulletin that this country is about
70 years behind Germany in enforcine
"a railway employees liability law. Mr.
Sherman says:
"While New York has with this act
reached the point attained by Eng
land in 1880, it is still seventy years
behind Germany, inasmuch as it was
in 1888 that Prussia enacted a law
requiring railway companies to pay
compensation for all accidents what
soever excepting such as were due tc
the Victims own carelessness or tc
Providence"
In the old countries the intelligent
workingmen have ceased to be voting
dummies for the old parties, stand
together in their parties and by thei,
own interests, and hence are feared
by politicians and receive concessions

b MMENDABLE LECTURE
COURSE.

Duluth is to be treated to something
out of the ordinary in lecture course
this winter.
The International Lecture Bureau
OF Chicago will send it's economic
course here and the Emerson Lyceum
club which has been organized to han
ole the lectures here, has secured
SteinWay hall to accommodate it's pa
irons. While the several lecture bu-
reaus all over the country have been
quick to note the growing popularity
of a lecture on social topics. This
bureau of which F. H. Monroe is pres-
dent has been the first to make this
the prominent feature of their course;
and this year they will send out Prof.
Lee Francis Lybarger, Frank Stephens,
John z. White and the great Biglow,
whose powerful sermons the Labor
World has been furnishing it's SUBJ
scribers from week to week besides
two entertainments, one an evening

gram that should appeal to all the
thoughtful and earnest people of Du-
luth and we hope it will be patronized
accordingly.

Remember that however great your
natural ability, it can be increased by
following the teaching and example
of those who have progressed beyond
you-just as man who has an apti-
tude for professional life can be de-
veloped by study. If you cannot,
therefore, work with spirit and en-
thusiasm, absorbing intelligently a
constant higher degree of education
along your chosen line, you should
try a new line; but if your work
suits you and you are suited to the
work, do not be influenced to leave
it by petty considerations. Shifting
about never brings success. Be stead,
fast. Have determination. Fix a
goal that you must reach and keep it
constantly before you, striving for it
manfully. Do not let things, eithe,
small or large, discourage you. Do

world is man. Not crowd OF men,

Because of this, we may take cour'

that chap who is down in the dumps.
It will straighten up the back Of the
fellow who has been a drudge for so
long that he has forgotten that he is
"a son of the King" with all the Royal
heritage of his father.
Has somebody deprived him of his

AT THE METROPOLITAN.


"The Broadway Gaiety Girls
Company which opens Sunday af-
ternoon for a weeks engagement
at the Metropolitan promises a
number of pleasing surprises in
the form of new burlesques and
headline Olio turns. The farce
THE Land of Promise" is made up
of a first part and an after piece
between which is sandwiched an
olio comprising a half dozen excep-
tionally clever acts.
The first part of the burlesque
introduces John Weber, the COM
edian, as willie Wollaff," a dude
surrounded by bevy of pretty
girls; Dick Brown, as Baker Lott, -
a Hebrew race track follower;
John Braggs as "Esau Sits," a
tourist agent; Lola Bigger, as
captain Crank" Lille Raymond,
as lima Byrd" footlight favorite;
Lille Stevens as "Grispette" any,
boys darling, and Maud Wilson as
Sadie Softer" soft millionairess.
The burlesque deals with a lost
medal in the land Of promise, the
finder of which will be the owner
of all the land. 1t is during the
action of this that the comedians
keep the audience In laughter; the
Olio offer sthe following headliners:
Mario and Aldo, gymnssts; Bulla
and Raymond; Simons and Braggs,
comdians; Lola Biggar, vocalist;
Brown and Bartoletti, whirlwind
dancers.

UNIONS ARE FIGHTING
j. FOR WORLDWIDE GOOD
BY Henry Abraham.

Dy f10uIy ADTdlldu.
In order to understand this question
we must, to be fair, disabuse our minds
of all prejudices or bias and judge
the trades union on it's merits.
A trade union has been defined as
an association of workmen skilled
or unskilled for their economic and
social improvement. This we all
will admit is laudable object.
Prior to the formation Of these
unions of mechanics, in the good
old times when we were compelled
to work from 16 to 10 hours per
day, when we had to take store
women were imprisoned for debt,
when little children were in every
factorys and we're kicked and abused
when too sleepy to work, we had
no trades unions of any account in
these United States.
l have before me the following
list of reforms brought about by
or through the efforts Of the trade
union:
/. Fire escapes on factories; Z,
inspectors Of factories; 3, protec-
ton from dangerous machinery: A.,
abolition of child labor; i, l0-hour
day; 6, ventilation in work shops;
7, seats for women where possible;
8, weekly payment of wages: 8, two
outlets to mines; 10, protected
wages of wives from attachments;
H., industrial and evening schools;
-, board of arbitration; IS, abol-
ished truck stores; IA, guaranteed
workers wages by lien; and, is,
Australian ballot.
We might add free text books
and public employment bureaus.
Contrast this with the !ir,e when
hours and wages were fixed by
law
Have we made mistakes? Of
course we have; we would not be
human If we had not.
All legislation is supposed to be
based upon the greatest good to
the greatest number. Anything
that raises the standard Of life i'm
proves the race. This principle we
claim the trade union has fought
for.
Of course, we have small num-
Der who denounce every man OF
wealth, but their influence is OK
aggerated. Just as there are men
in all walks of life who believe the
Socialist "a drunken German loaf
err the Jew money shark" the
Italian vicious, the Irishman Draw
Ter and destroyer of peace. All this
is not true; it is overdrawn. IIu-
man nature is much alike in all.
We have taken of all nationali-
ties and creeds, and in the words
OF Hon. Carroll D. Wright, banded
them together, when church and
state failed, and made tnem titi-
zens and good ones.
We are opposed to war.
We are opposed to capital pun
ishment.
We believe we will ye5 have
higher civilization.
Does all this make tor the good
of the whole, or only part Of
our citizens?
I'VE mean to make things over:
we're tired of toll for naughr
We may have enough to live on.
but never an hour for thought.

want to smell the flowers;

matte. seems to hold the attention

their reality and simplicity.
Although the management of
"The Gingerbread Man, a farcial

vertise an "All-Star" cast, it might

many of the managers who lure the
public to shop worn melodrama with
this fetching phrase.
