UNION INSURANCE.

The International Brotherhood Of
Steam Shovel and Dredge Men has
submitted to a referendum vote the
question Of establishing an insurance
department In connection with the
union. The plan proposed is to pay
death or total disability claim Of
$1,000 on an annual premium of $780,
The death rate during the last year
was about 16 In 1000 members, and
the premium has been set on that
basis, although the officers expect that
1t may be reduced after the first year,
when the plan will be fairly establish

TRADE UNIONS AND TR,Isrs


1t is very common for such enemies
of trade unions as C. w. Post of the
Citizens Alliance, to compare them to
the trusts, and to those who are ig-
norant Of the principles upon which
rest trade organiza tions, the compar-
1son may seen to be true. An exam
ination, however, will show that trail,
unions and trusts are operated or d.
vergent lines. The trade union exists
for the benefit of ALL It invites al
work1ngmen to share in it's benefit It
is for the manv Tie trust exists fo~

trade union, by It's advancement of
wages, benefits not onl~ the working
man, but the whole world. BY i'm.
proving their condition it improves so
c1ety. It makes men better citizens
by making them more self-reliant; It
stimulates business by increasing tn.
purchasing power Of it's members. The
trade union does much Of the work ot
practical Christianity. It inculcates
the spirit of human brotherhood, Ba-
ing comprised Of man OF all :reeds and
nationalities, it incu,cates liberal AMI
tolerant views. The trade union is 4
school Of discioline Of thought ana ac-
tion. From its Instruction men have
become equipped for exalted stations
in business and political life. Trusts
produce poverty. trade unions produce
prosperity. Tho on: decreases labor's'

trial conditions. Its laws are made by
the majority. Its Officers are elected
to execute the will Of the members.
When they fail to do this their power
is but brief. In trade union meettnas
the interests OF the employer are
more often protected than assatled.
The wage scale of the trade union Il
OF benefit to the employer. It furnish
es him a safe basis Of estimate With
out fear Of dishonest and unjust conn

thousands from pauperism, relieves
taxes, aids the government. BY ele.

him to environ his home with a refln-
ing atmosphere the trade union Isl
Christianizing agency, and 1t is the

Greater Party Will Now Learn
That It Must Put up the
Best Men if It Hopes to
Continue It's Power in the
Country-People Will Not
Permit Themselves to Be
Fooled.

Throughout the length and
breadth Of the country, and in all
the states where elections were held
on Tuesday, Minnesota and it's gov
ernor was the center of interest. A
man who had the courage in an
overwhelming Republican state to
wage a lone fight and seek the
support of the opposition received
the hearty commentator which is
invariably accorded to those who
fight In the cause Of Justice.
Unaided by the power of money,
his every move contested and cha1-
lenged by the trusts he fought a
single-handed fight, and won by q
plurality of $4,000, figure far be-
yond the hopes of the most sang
uine enthusiast. The victory was
doubly valuable because 1t proved
beyond a. doubt that it was the
strong personality of the man, rath-
or than bis party or issues, that ap-
pealed to the voters.
For months Gov. Johnson was In
the spot light. While the CAMPAIGN
as a whole was clean, yet attempts
we're made to weaken his hold upon
the people by assertions, that he
had favored the Illicit timber
thieves and lumber barons. This
was done in so vague a way that
the claims were received with
doubt until their truth was effect
ually dispelled by absolute proof Of
fered by the governors friends. The
man had the confidence of the peo-
pie throughout, and because of this
they preferred to trust their in
terests to him rather than place
them in the hands of strangers
whose policy might be vacillating,
weak or insipid.
When the voters are thinking

and fought along those lines. He
was beaten because he could not
see that that doctrine is now a
matter Of history, and that the peo-
pie wanted none of 1t. He re-
fused to- heed the warnings that
drifted to him during the cam
'pa1gn. All others interested may
take this lesson home and save a
similar rebuke.
There will be moro of it. The
people are reused against the trusts
and the money greed which has
so increased the cost of living and
built up fabulous fortunes. The
Roman empire was sold at auction
to the highest bidder at one time
for 100000. yet there are a
thousand men in this country who
have more money than that. It is
not possible by just means to build
up such colossal fortunes, and the
people have said in the election of
Governor Johnson Of Minnesota,
Governor Cummins of Iowa, and in
many other forms of silent but
forceful ways that 1t shall be done
no more. The warning Is here
Let those who believe otherwise
reap the reward of their folly.
Governor Johnson will enter up
on his second term as the peoples
governor. No set of politicians will
dictate to him, for he appreciates
the responsibility that has been re-
posed in him, and will not fail the
trust. His potent personality has
wiped away political lines in Min
nesota, and this state is now to be
placed in the doubtful" column.
However, the people are abundant
ly able to stand doubts" such as
these, for the victory will be all
their own.

ABOUT HANDSHAKES.
Did you ever notice the differs

Did you ever notice the difference
in hands and handshakes? asks the
Abilene Chronicle. Well, there is
a difference, and it's mighty inter-
esting, too. One person will offer
you a big, brawny hand that gives
you good, hearty shake, while
another hand that is just as big and
brawny will feel like a log. Some
one else will offer you hand that
you could reach around with your
little finger, and yet the grasp Ii

Mobile, Alabama, October 1, 1906
A heavy rain storm which is great
ly interfering with railroad and tele-
graph companies, set in last night
and is still on. No wind accompan-
les it as yet but the down pour has
been exceedingly heavy and enor-
mously increased and is very difficult
for the construction gangs. 1t is
feared too, it will increase the suff-
ering and cause some deaths along
the coast at the south end of Mobile
bay. Many persons are homeless in
on scanty provisions. On Dauphin
Island there are five hundred home
less with three small Buildings for
shelter. Despite two relief expedi-
tions sent out yesterday they had not
more tnan provisions for one more
day and additional supplies were sent
down early today. While there is
suffering in Mobile proper, there is
urgent need at many points in the
southern part of the bay and assis-
tance to these people will be grateful
ly received. Arrests were made at
some lower resorts today of negroes
caught 1ooting wrecked houses and it
was determined to send additional de-
tails to militia to Coden and other
points. Citizens of Mobile have un-
dertaken relief measures with energy
and are sending food and clothing to
stricken points as rapidly as possible.
Suffering has been intense at Bayou
La Batre and is still acute. Large
numbers of tents nave been taken
to Dauphin Island and more will be
taken today.

DEXTER GETS THE BRIDGE.

The County Commissioners met in
regular session today and took up the
matter of a site for the Pecos bridge
in the south part of the county. BY
a vote of two to one it was decided
to build the structure opposite or near
Dexter, as against the proposed site
opposite Or near Hagerman. Commis-
sioners Atkinson and White voted
for the Dexter site. Commissioner
Fritz voted for the Hagerman site.
There is still a question as to the
exact location of the bridge. There
are three possible sites near Dexter.
Bids will be asked for on all of these
sites and these bids may influence
the location of the bridge. The de-
cision between Hagerman and Dex-
ter was the main fight, however and
the choice of locations near Dexter
will cause no trouble, it is thought.

poison the minds, the moral nature

made that at the close of the sermon
many came forward for prayer, expires

Interstate Commerce Commission Ar

Washington, D. c., Oct. 1.-The In
terstate Commerce Commission has
reached an important conclusion with
respect to the railway rate law which
was embodied in a general order
made public today. 1t holds that
where the state rate forms a part of
the interstate Rate filed with the
commission. This is an entirely new
feature in connection with the opera
ton of Interstate Commerce Com
mission. Further announcement was
made by the Commission, that it ex-
tends wherever possible to construct
low rates in advance without waiting
for any particular complaint to be
made upon which to base a decision.
In this way it is expected a large mum
ber of complaints will be anticipated
and the work of the Commission cor
