HOW sTRIcHT PICKETED.
Went Inside on Invitation and There Won His
Employer to Eight Hours

The following interesting little story from
Chicago comes via A. F. Bloomer's department
i'll the Washington Trades Unionist. 1t is
good enough to go the entire rounds:
E. NJ. E. Stricht was the solitary printer for
Schiller Brothers, and when he went on strike
he picketed the plant himself. 1t was pretty
cold walking around outside, and as the firm
did not appear to be taking any non-rnion
men, he went inside and sat by the fire, smok-
ing and talking to his former employers.
Say, Ed said one Of them, why don't
you stay right in here and do your picket
ing:'
Strich allowed that that would suit him, SO
they talked the matter over, and his employers
agreed to the eight-hour proposition.

HANDSPRING OF PROGRESS.

Wendell Phillips: I rejoice at every effort
workingmen make to organize. / do not care
on what basis they do it. The handspring of
our progress is high wages-wages at such a
level that the workingman can spare his wife

go to lectures, take newspaper, and lift him
self from the deadening routine of mere toll.

st. Petersburg, Feb. 26.-Reports
have come from the interior showing
it is possible to hold the elections in

recommended that the first meeting

definite announcement furnished a
convincing answer TO the revolutionary
argument that the government had no
intention of convoking the national
assembly. 1t is expected to do far
more toward completing the tranquil
ization of the country than all the
repressive measures of Interior Min

The place for the convocation of
the national assembly is the historic
