How a Union Printer Got Back at tn

How Union Printer Got Back at the
Sneering Banker.
One day recently one of the striking
printers of Typographical Union, No.
1872, was soliciting job work of promi-
nent Akron, Ohio, banker, to be done
at the shop of a printer who is
square on the eight-hour PROPOSE
ton.
This banker, having stock in one of
the struck shops, seemed to have a
raw spot, and in the course of the con-
versation remarked that printers and
other union men were robbers"
The solicitor asked him if he knew
how many printers there were in the
Ohio penitentiary, to which the bank
er said he did not.
well, I'll tell you," said the printer.

that all of these assaults upon organ

members of the Typographical Union,
and it is pertinent question whether
the. members of these unions in Cleve-
land and Milwaukee uphold and coun-

will have to be answered and then
other unions will not hesitate about
what to do in the matter. These two
men continually and habitually insult,
traduce and blackguard the officials of
all other unions, and do this under
pretense that political necessity calls
for it. While no one would think for
a moment of curtailing or interfering

Judge Smith of Minneapolis Gives the
Typothetae a Body Blow.

Judge John Day Smith of Mime
apolis on last Tuesday issued an order
denying the prayer of temporary in

If the printers union made by the
Minneapolis typothetae. The court
denies plaintiffs motion on it's merits
as evidenced by the affidavits filed in
the case and without deciding the
differing contentious of the parties as
to whether the plaintiffs come into
court with clean hands and are vio-
lating the antitrust law.
He holds that there is not sufficient
evidence of violence or improper con-
duct on the part of the striking print
ers to warrant the issue of an injunc-
ton. In his memorandum Judge
Smith reviews the causes and the his
tory of the trouble between the strik-
ing printers and typothetae, cites the
general laws governing the issuance
of injunctions and in conclusion
states:

against an open shop proposition and
a reduction in wages, offered us by
our employers, the Herkle Wiley

the length of this struggle it has left

jobs whenever we had an opportunity,
but our town not being a manufacture
ing one, work has been very scarce.
Our International Union, though
very small in numbers has stood by
us and assisted us nobly, but owing to
the fact that the broom manufacture
ers are organized, and the firm we
worked for leading lights, they have

than ordinary notice. Especially

John La Londe, non-union bar

He had never been member of the
Bartenders' Union, but members OF the
union, learning of his demise, 1mme-
diately brought the fact before the
members of the organization. The
union Immediately took charge of all
arrangements, paid all expenses and
covered the casket with flowers. The
bereaved widow tearfully thanked the
unionists for their kindness.

WHITE ELEPHANTS
IN ABUNDANCE

Special Cablegram to The Star.
BANGKOK September 1s.-Reports from
Rangoon say that the Burmese world has
been stirred by the birth Of two white ele-
plants not far from Chiengmai. Slam will
be also thrilled.
One of the rarities was born in one of the
herds Of the governor Of Lakawn. the other
in that of a timber merchant. The latter
elephant was given to a tiger to eat. as the
Burmese say a timber merchant is not
worthy of a white elephant, which Is the
prerogative Of kings and chiefs.
The advent Of the governors young white
elephant was heralded in the most ap-
proved eastern manner. The governor
dreamed that innumerable statues of Bud
dha strolled about his room and sat on his
head He also dreamed that he had to carry
the Bo tree, under which Gautama attained
to Omniscience. as well as the throne on
which he sat.
Next morning the governor called his
soothsayers together to interpret his dream,
and the old gentlemen were rubbing their
noses and looking up at the ceiling for ex-
plantations when some one walked in and
announced that q white elephant had been
born The sOothsayers were at once able
to explain that the governors dream meant
that he was to be person OF glory and
power.
The white elephant, protected with q
white umbrella, was escorted into the town
with regai pomp. attended by several COM
panies Of elephants and horses, while .
band played and hundreds OF people march,
ed along. The elephantine baby IL de-
color; his hair IL white like unto silver
needles. his palate and tongue are quite red !;
his eyes resemble rubies Of the purest wa
ter. He is perfect white elephant"
