UNlONlSM DEFINED.

How often have we heard prospec-
tive applicants for membership in our
unions ask the question: What does
your union propose to do? What good
Is there In unions? What is unionism
What is the labor movement?
The following paragraph may aid
YOU the next time these questions are
propounded:
Samuel Gompers, president Of the
American Federation Of Labor, was
asked to explain unionism. In a sem
tence he replied: The labor movement
has for it's purpose the securing Of the
best possible economic and social con-
ditions for the masses, and the attain
nent of these with the least possible
friction. the meeting of problems as
thew confront us; the making Of the

THE DUAL UNION EVIL.
Division Of Craftmen Retards PROD
ress Of Labor.

The true spirit Of unionism apnears
to be rapidly gaining ground among
the organized workers, and there is
reason to hope that it will ere long
gain the ascendency in the conduct of
union affairs. Unity is the true spirit
of unionism, writes Joseph r. Buchan-
an in the New York Journal.
Dual associations-two or more COL
lect1ons of workers in the same in
dustry-may be called organization,
but such condition may not be de-
scribed by the word union. In fact,
it is nothing more nor less than dis
union.
Not only has the labor movement in
New York suffered from the divisions
In certain crafts, but the damaging eff
fects have been felt throughout the
whole country.
But a change, a change for the bet
ter, seems to be almost if not quite
at hand. Leaders of labor are begin
ming to realize the real, the full mean
Ing Of union.
Instead Of looking for reasons f3r
dividing craft the true friends Of la
Dor will seek ways of drawing together
the whole army Of workingmen
Rather than strain a point to keep
men who are kindred in trade apart
those who have the interests Of labor
at heart will strive to knit them more
| closely together.
The new battle cry of the American
labor movement is "Get together!"
Get together in your trades, wipe out
the silly "demarcation lines" by re-
moving the necessity for them. Erad-
icate the dual union evil.
Get together and hang together, If
You don't want to hang separately.

GOVERNMENT SAVINGS BANK
AND INDUSTRIAL INSURANCE

Agitation is now spreading for the
establishment of a government saw
lngs bank in connection with the
postoffice department, which is not
likely to abate until the object is ac-
complished. Not only is the postal
savings bank likely to become a fact
in the near future, but it is probable
that the congress will, in response to
the general demand, be compelled to
also institute an industrial insurance
system which is much desired. and
would be a welcome substitute for the
prevailing catch-penny schemes of
industrial insurance.
When such a strong medium as
Golfers Weekly is outspoken in
favor of a reform measure the people
are fortunate. In an able article ap-
pearing in the number Of Sept. Is
Louis D. Brandeis, a Boston lawyer,
contributed a Most exhaustive presen-
tation of the manner in which poor
people are mulcted by the large in
dustrial insurance companies. He
shows that poor people pay double
the amount as premiums than those
pay who hold what is termed "ordi-
nary or regular insurance policies.
AS indicating the great loss to the
policyholders in the three largest in
dustrial insurance companies, he cites
the fact that in Is years the working
men Of Massachusetts paid more than
IS million dollars in premiums for in
dustrial insurance and in return re-
ceived in all less than 20 million dol
lars, or 1896 per cent of the aggre-
gate premium paid by them.
The article suggests as a. remedy
that the state provide more equit-
able system for insurance protection.
The article, which will be followed
by others on the same question, con-
cludes with the statement that:
1.-THE capital actually paid into the
company, the yearly waste of millions
in lapsed policies. in fruitless sohclta-
ton. and in needless collections, Will
cease. The question is merely whether
the remedy shall be applied through
properly regulated private institutions
or whether the state must itself enter
upon the business of life insurance"

Since the closing of this, our
twelfth annual session Of the Ida

Telephone improvements.

The Nez Perez Cooperative Tele-
phone company's Office in this city
is steadily taking on nice and
neat appearance as it is being more
fully equipped with new and up to
date furniture and office fixtures.
The new switch board has just
been installed and soon about forty
phones that are now engaged will
he in operation on the local ex-
change. This company is already
making arrangements to put in
some farmer lines into the country
both north and east of town.
At Cottonwood the company has
recently put in fifteen new phones,
making now nearly fifty on the
exchange in that place. A new
switch board has also just been in
stalled there and the central Office
changed to the M. f. Fuchs build
ing.
Lineman Geo. Edwards was at
Ferdinand last week putting in
several phones. The company
is putting up lines and local phones
as rapidly as possible. Men are
scarce at present for such work on
account of the demand for harvest
hands. The patrons of the local
exchange of this new company, in
Guiding nearly all the leading bust
ness men of this city, will have
free service with Cottonwood and
all intermediate points. This will
be great convenience and no doubt
help to cause a great many to take
phones with this company.

Leslie Davis Tells of Expert
ence With Portuguese.
Mrs. w. j. Davis recently re-
ceived letter from her son, Les
lie, who is now midshipman on the
U. S. battleship Cleveland. The
letter was written while at sea and
he tells of a severe storm encount-
cred, during which nearly every
one we're sick, including himself.
In speaking of foreigners and
what they think Of Americans he
said:
1--WE were in y town called Horta
(Tyal Island, Azores) which has
about 10, 900 population, who are
mostly Portuguese and speak the
Portuguese language. They do not try
to beat Americans as much as those
at Funchal, but they are like most
all other foreigners in that when
they see the smoke of an 'Ameri-
cano' on tine horizon the prices Of
every thing 60 up. That is the
fault Of being an American, all
foreigners think you q millionaire
and treat you accordingly by ask
ing prices that are at least eight
times their regular price. Wine is
12a cents quart if q Portuguese
buys 1t but dollar (peso) il an
Americana gets it. On the whole
this cruise is not as bad or 80 hard
as last years, the reason being that
we are now second class aud the
third class have to do the work we
did last year. We have steamed
about 1000 miles already and the
cruise is not half over"
