VALUE OF UNIoNISM.
Organized Labor the Great
Wealth Distributor.
Poverty Stricken People Do Not
Purchase Largely of In
dustry's Products.

The distribution of wealth is lust
fas important as its creation. Pros
perity does not mean excessive
wealth for few, combined with
poverty of the masses. That is the
sort of prosperity that exists in
China and in India, where rich
mandarins and rajas lord it over
starving populations.
The labor union, in enforcing a
high scale of wages, is bringing
about the distribution of wealth
throughout the entire community.
The prosperity of the merchant
depends upon the purchasing power
of the mass of people. Upon that
purchasing power depends also the
manufactures, the farmer, the book
publisher, the theatcr owner and
actor--all of those that have pro-
ducts or effects to sell.
Poverty stricken people do not
eat beef or mutton; they do not
buy WOODEN clothes in profusion.
They have not enough for ife's real
necessities; nothing at all for the
books, the travel, the pleasures
that should accompany genuine
national prosperity.
Wide and equitable distribution
of wealth. is essential to nations
prosperous growth and intellectual
development, and that distribution
is brought about by the labor
unions more than by any other
agency of our civilization.
The labor union, with it's good
prices for its good work, enables
the father to keep his children in
school instead of sending them to
the factory. Thus it adds to the
intelligence and health of the future
generation, besides increasing pros
perity in the present.
And the dignity that comes of
the union mans Independence is
in harmony with our American
ideas of life and government. The
industrial unrest of recent times
has not been due to the extortion-
ate demands of labor-although
the labor union has been made the
scapegoat of many an incompetent
and manya get-rich-quick schemcr.
The workman'S increased pay has
come about necessarily to meet The
added cost oSsliving. Govern alent
statistics show that the cost of lies
necessities has increased Is to 80
per cent. But the price of labor
has not increased in proportion.

Value of Organization

Without the unions there cannot
be anything but low standard OF
wages, and the hours will be SO
long many people will be out of
employment, and that means Il
poor circulation of money. And

FOR A SQUARE DEAL
The Platform on Which Organized
Labor Stands.
The Reverend Charles Stelzlc's Tele-
escopic Versus Microscopic
Views on Situation.

The microscope has its uses, but
you cannot see the stars through a
You cannot get a
broad view of nature, the rivers,
the-mountlins and the green earth.
You cannot see even u single tree
through Il microscope.
There are men who look at life
through this little instrument.
They seem to take peculiar de-
light in searching for the small
itllings in life, the petty, the mean
things, III others lives. They never
have a vision. They never take
into the sweep of their horizon the
really great and guoG things. II
they were shown Il beautiful paint
ing they would seek for fly-specks
on the frame. And because their
outlook is narrow, they become
pcssimistic and bitter and censori-
Gus.
Unfortunately, the labor move
ment is sometimes retarded by
these unhappy individuals. Oc-
casionally they are found within
the ranks of the workers. They
are the ones who arc dead weights
to the really earnest men who arc
bravely making a fight for better
things. But they are also found
outside the labor movement. To
them the labor movement consists
of unreasonable strikes and unscru-
pulous agitato1s. They do not see
the millions of children in the mills
and the factories who should be at
home and iii the schools, and for
whom organized labor is making "A
strong fight, while the great mass
of even intelligent people are
strangely Indifferent to their strug-
giles. They seem to be ignorant of
the terrible sweatshop in which
thousands of the toilers are wearing
out their lives in the hopelessness
of s,bject poverty, and for whom
the labor union almost single hand
ed is battling, in what is bound to
be winning fight.
Who is doing more for the wom-
an that tolls? What institution
stands more courageously for a
squarcr deal for our sisters and
mothers? Not III weak, sickly,
sentimental way, but with vigor
and Il red -bloodedness that is some
times startling i'll its sersistency
and in its effectiveness.
Look through your telecope for
a little while and forget the fly
|specks. Nobody likes them. We
can't get rid of them altogether,
but there is something else on the
horizon.

Corporations Squea1ing.

The corporation newspapers of
the State are in tears, as it were,
because the railroads and other
corporate interests, are at last to be
placed upon the tax duplicate and
bexlr their just share of the burdens
of the government. 1t is a dirty.
mean trick, - according to the.
views expressed by the corporation
press, to compel the corporations
of West Virginia to pay taxes on
their holdings, as they are required
to do under the new law. Former

tions, who amassed the wealth, un-
der this and that pretsxt, escaped

WIDE DAMAGE BY
FIERCE STORM
Dam at Lake Plantagnet Suffers
Trees Blown Down in
y. Town.

The electrical and rain storm
of last night did considerable
damage in the city, and to the
south of here. The wind at
tanned a velocity that made the
timid fear for the safety of their
abiding places and the sharp
flashes of lightning made a won.
derful display in the heavens.
In the park, along the lake
shore, several oak and other
trees were blown down, and a
few trees in other parts of the
city were leveled. The chimney
on the house belonging to Joseph
Schisel (between 9th and 10th
streets) was thrown from the
roof to the ground, and there
were other similar cases of small
damage being done by the ele-
ments.
The storm appears to have
been even more severe along the
chain of lakes and rivers south
of LakelIrving. The dam at the
outlet of Lake Plantagnet, known
as the Jester dam, suffered es-
pecially. The water was thrown
over the dam to a height of sew
eral feet and the structure could
not stand the strain, two wings
being carried down the School.
craft river.
Considera BILE timber was blown
down in that vicinity, and on
Marquette lake an anchor was
broken on Hatcher's drive of logs
and the boom broken.
There were several places
where lightning struck in the
woods, but so far as is known no
residence was hit and no one was
injured.

Bemidji Tuesday, and after &C.
cumulating an ugly jag, returned
to his home town. He had made
him a knife with file which he
kept in a long wooden case, and
taking this in his hand he went
out in search Of trouble.
He threatened to kill several
residents of Wilton according to
reports and finally wound up by
visiting the home of the girl,
where he had a room. Miss Wat

had threatened to kill her and
had chased her over the house
with a knife in his hand, and that
she only escaped by lodging out
the back door when he was look.
ing for her upstairs.
She now denies the story and
says he did not draw the knife
on her at all.

CIRCUS BARELY
ESCAPES STORM
Cuts Performance Short and
Hustles Animals and Tents
Aboard Train.

The Campbell Brothers circus
got its tents down last night just
in time to escape the big wind
and rain storm. It cut the per-
Torrance short by at least an
hour because of the threatening
sky, and although the cars were
not loaded when the elements
broke loose, the canvass was all
down and stored and everything
was prepared to withstand the
storm.
This cutting of the show short
made it little worse than it
would otherwise have been, but
even at the best it must have
been pretty 'rotten. The only
things last night that we're worth
paying good money to see were
the Japanese balancers and the
acrobats, the rest of the circus
was either poor or fair stunts
originated in the days of Barnum
and long since grown messy and
bewhiskered.
The singing by the clown and
chorus was not so bad, but it was
hardly worth paying fifty cents
to hear.
The concert, advertised to last
an hour, was the worst ever. II
lasted just ten minutes by the
clock, and although, Of course, il
was shortened in order to gel
through, a more honest way
would have been to have omitted
it altogether. But then, prob
ably Campbell Brothers need the
extra ten cents.
