THE PITTSBURG
STEAMSHIP COMPANY

1t is we'll known fact that organized
labor is not slow in recognizing friends
and there is no concern in our city
that is more worthy Of honorable men
ton because Of it's friendly attitude
towards labor than the Pittsbura
Steamship company.
In these days of immense concerns
win m1lllons or capital the outgrowth
OF the spirit of concentration of the
time, 1T is pleasing to note that labor
goes hand in hand with capital. When
the employer has confidence in emplove
and the employee trusts the EMPLOYER
and both work for the common good
it is sign that the day of the strike
has passed.
In this city there are number OF
large employers who have the confid.
ence OF their employees and who work
with them in harmony at all times
One of these is the Pittsburg STEAMSHIP
company, which employs a large force
We know, judging from their treat.
ment of employees in the past, the offic.
ers of this corporation will not only
deal conscientiously with the public
but will be fair and just to their en-
ployes at all times.
The officers of the company are: H
Coulby. president and general man.
ager; j. H. Mclean, vice president
James H. Hoyt, secretary; C. E. Scheide
treasurer; G. D. Swift, assistant treas
urer; w. M Jeffrey, auditor, A. F.
Harvey. assistant general manager; c.
E. Collins, traffic manager; w. w
Smith, superintendent; F. B. Smith
chief engineer; w. w. Watterson, as
sistant superintendent: Louis Hauser
Jr. store manager; R. w. Brown, agent
Confidence on both sides is essential
to Industrial progress and prosperity
The Interruptions Of trade during the
national campaigns is due to lack OF
confidence of capital in the politics OF
political parties other than those un-
conducted. In the same way trade is
interrupted by employees losing con-
f1dence in the honesty of purpose and
employers. Whenever we find an EN-
ployer whose business is not disturbed
by strikes or labor disturbances, it is
safe to assume that that employer has
the confidence of his employees.
So long as the business remains in
the hands of its present able and ef-
f1cient Officers, the Labor World has
no hesitancy in predicting for the Pitts
burg Steamship company a period OF
continued prosperity and we'll. deserved
patronage. We take pleasure in plac-

serving company foremost among. the

DULUTH STREET

The transportation problem is es-
pecially important to the working

As Russell Sage says, there is no rea-
sonable excuse why a we'll paid wage
Garner should always be just even with
the world financially and especially
during prosperous times such as at
present. He should make it a point to
put aside for future use a certain por-
ton of his regular income. The object
Of prudence and economy Is one Of the
most important questions which con-
front workingmen at the present time.
Without a reserve fund he is certain
to be handicapped in his efforts to bet
ter his condition and to suffer in case
of sickness, loss Of employment and
hard times.
Duluth has reason to feel proud OF
the standing Of many Of her financial
commercial and manufacturing instl-
tutions, but none Of them have a higher
standing at home and abroad than the
City National Bank Of Duluth. The
officers of this bank have always had
the utmost confidence in the future
growth and greatness of Duluth, as has
been shown by their Willingness to
waste their time, money and exper-
ience in the development Of its re-
Sources. That this confidence ha~ oeen
we'll repaid is shown by the strength
and position which this bank has at
tanned and by the fattering and sub
stantial character of the business done
by this bank.
n concern which protects the inter-
ests Of our citizens and helps to save

welfare, and should receive considera-

and social development much retard-

Nothing has been more wonderful
than the strides made in railroad facil-
tiles In the last quarter Of century,
development of the country west and
northwest has been the Duluth & Iron
Range Railroad. The country adjacent
to the Duluth & Ircn Range Railroad
possess unrivaled attractions for the
investor and sportsman, and for a
small sum our citizens can enjoy a
most pleasant outing at The many
fascinating resorts. along the line.
There are unlimited opportunities for
the investor or home seeker to make
very. profitable investments or find for
themselves a spot where they can, Gre
ate a home where they will be free
from the uncertainties of city life. To
the home-seeker the Duluth & Iron

The courtesy Of all officials, the SER
vice give, and the care and attention
shown the patrons of this line have
been the source of. its constantly in
creasing volume Of business and the
popular favor in which it is held 1t
is pleasing fact that the officials of
this enterprise are held in the highest
esteem by their large force Of en-

THE ZENITH CITY
TELEPHONE COMPANY

There Is no factor, in modern civili-
cation which does more to facilitate
the transaction Of business and pro-
mote the general comfort and happi-
ness of all our people than does the
system of telephone.
l. When we look back about 20 years
ago we often wonder how we succeed
ed IN business, as at time the telephone
was comparatively unknown and it
used to be that when a person wanted
to talk to another it was necessary to
either make long and tedious journey
or to write letter, but now all that
is necessary to be done is call up
the one wanted either in the city or
one thousand miles away and at once
settle their affairs
Foremost in this line stands the
Zenith Telephone company, with Offices
at 301-3o7 Lyceum. Upon careful in
vestigation. we find that this company
stands high in the estimation Of the
thousands of organized workmen of
Duluth. The treatment accorded the
large force of employees is uniformly
fair and considerate, and the manage
ment is held in the highest esteem
and confidence by them. This company
is a positive benefit to our city, and
especially to the working men who
constitute the larger percentage Of the
city's population
We take pleasure in placing the
name of the Zenith Telephone COM
pany among the strong and substantial
concerns Of our city which should re.
ceive the support and cooperation OF
our people. because of the broad-mind-
ed and philosophical manner in which
their business is conducted.
And in all, the equipment of this
company is splendid example OF
progressive ideas that tend to give the
public the best service at minimum
OF expense. The operators and en-
ployes of this COMPANY receive the
most fair and considerate treatment,
and are paid the highest wages COM
patible with business integrity. They
have been true and staunch supporters
Of every interest that would tend to-
ward the advancement Of the COM
mercial interests of their territory and
have never been called upon for aid
for any worthy undertaking in vain.
The Labor World takes pleasure IN
placing this company foremost among
the enterprising corporations of the

PRINTERS |: | !. STRIKE ) | Is. I.
FAVORABLE TO UNION

The printers strike, according to
Z. e. Judd, is a. thing of the past,
but the non-union boss printer has
probably found by this time that the
boys are still firmly and earnestly
struggling for the eight hour day.
OF course Mr.. Judd wishes to con-
vey the impression that the strike is
over in the hope that it will bring
him work from business men who
will not give their work to unfair
firms.
The strike in Duluth is half won.
In St. Paul and Minneapolis prac-
t1cally the same condition prevails.
In other cities throughout the coun-
try the strike Is thing of the past
and the printers are working the
eight hour day. Nationally the strike
has been a complete victory, and
only few firms in several cities are
stubbornly resisting the demands of
labor for the humane work day.
The union firms in Duluth are
Merritt and Hector, Boutin in West
Duluth, Geo. Adams, The Trade
News Printing Co., A. J. Lyle, George
Jensen and Seipel and Huntley.
These are seven of the largest firms
In the city, and they all have the
union label.
The unfair firms are: Duluth
l,ith ographing and Printing Co., O.
F. Collier, J. J. La To urneau, J. l..
Thwfng, F. H. Lounsberry & Co., and
c. E. Judd. These six are not en-
titled to the label. At least three OF
these would be willing to give up the
fight at once were it not for inf1u-
ences to which they are bound, and
which are not in the city of Duluth.
Every printer is steadily employed
and the union is experiencing no
trouble in securing work for all men
with a card
The union succeeded in inducing
several non-union men to leave town
this week, and now one shop is strip
ped of all it's help except one boy
and girl. There never was a more
hopeful condition in the strike, and
everything indicates an early settle
ment with all the firms.

There is nothing which is more nee
essary for a citys success and pros
per1ty than to have in its midst strong.
reliable banking institutions. Such a.
bank as the Western State bank adds
very materially to the standing Of
our city, and to the financial safety
and hence to the happiness of our
citizens. This bank Is located at 81
North Central avenue.
Each and every wage Garner should
lay aside q certain amount every week
as a nest egg for rainy day when
times are hard and work is slack and
when sickness and age ovectakes us.
as 1t is liable to at any time, it is
nice thing to have something to fall
back on, and If we would start TODAY
! to place small amount each week in
such a bank as the Western State
bank 1t would be great help to u.s.
The officers are as follows: James
Cochran, president; Lucian A. Barnes,
vice president; L. r. Clark, cashier,
This bank has always maintained a
very friendly attitude toward labor.
and labor has every reason to give
It their hearty support and co-opera-
ton.
The members of this bank are known
as men who are ready at all times to
assist In the efforts OF the community
" to make progress along lines Of Ren-
eral interest and their time, money
and experience has always been freslv
given to the advancement of any such
movement.
" SO long as the management remains
in the hands Of its present broad-mind-

safe In predicting that it will continue
to increase in prestige and popular
favor.
We take pleasure in placing the name

well deserves to be placed and retain
