neapolis Unions-St. Paul and Out

f. of L. Support-Other Labor Notes.

Because Of the fact that he has Sc
cured good-paying position at his
trade, S. j. Spencer, who was recently
appointed state organizer for the State
Federation Of Labor, resigned at the
last meeting. Albert L. Baker, who is
also painter and member Of Local
No. 1856, was chosen to succeed him.
Mr.. Bakers selection is regarded as a
good one and he received his creden-
tails as organizer Wednesday and has
already begun work in Minneapolis.
For at least two weeks he will give
his sole attention to the local field,
which at this time is sorely in need of
the services Of an organizer Over
twenty local unions have dropped mem
bership in the federation, and besides
this number there are many which have
never been affiliated at all, and siren
uous movement is already under way
to induce the prodigals to return anc
the others to come within the federation
fold. Mr.. Baker has already visited
and spoken before all the unions which
have held meetings at headquarters

state at large will come in for its share
of the work Of the organizer. The fed
GRAFTON council will map out the pro-
gram, which, it is understood, will fol
low the general plans laid out directly
after the last convention. :.
~ While there has been some discussion
in certain quarters relative to changing
the place of meeting for the next state
convention, the assurance is given that
this will not be done. In fact the fed
Grafton council could only do this under
extraordinary conditions, so all talk of
the convention being held anywhere
than at Saltwater is unwarranted.
If the plans of the council are sue
cessful, coupled with the fact that the
convention city is in such close prox-
unity to St. Paul and Minneapolis, the
coming convention will be the most
successful from all standpoints in the
history Of the state organization.
William Templeman, president of the
State Federation, is in Winnipeg, Man,
where he is engaged in special work for
the Typographical union. In his absence
the Federation council has been doing
what it could in the way Of carrying
OIL the work, but it will soon be neces-
sary for Mr.. Templeman to return tenn
porarily OF some other arrangement
must be made whereby the recognized
head may be consulted more easily than
at present. ~ ~ 7

Prominent musicians of the city will
take part in an elaborate program which
is being arranged under careful direc-

be given at Plymouth church, Friday
evening, March 80, for the benefit of
the eBthel Settlement work. Governor
Johnson is to be the speaker of the

plans have been going forward for the
new building. The contract has just
been let and ground will be broken for
Pillsbury House at Fourth street and
Sixteenth avenue S as soon as the frost
is out of the ground.
It will be remembered that the Pills

lots and erection of the new building
and now it Is. necessary to raise $4,000
for the endowment fund required to
maintain the new institution. The enter.
tainment which is to be given at Plym-
outh church is for the purpose of raising
a part of this money.
The Pillsbury House is to be four.
story red. brick in Dutch colonial style
and is to be ready by September. The
ground floor will be devoted to clubrOom!
and workshops for men and boys; the

before many unions were thoughC OF.
The fact that they were driven: to
desperate conditions in years gone by
was responsible for their organization.
They adopted their label in 1885, which
has been guarded carefully ever since
and which has BEEN one of the prime
causes of the. great success Of the or
ganization. Not only has the label as
sisted in maintaining the organization,
but also the effective, diligent and con-
sistent work Of the executive board,
in whom the rank and file of the mem
bership have always had implicit con-
fdence. They have always had good,
competent men at the head of theEor-
ganization, whose every ambition has
been to further the interest Of the
workers Of their craft, II 81 -
uThat this confidence has not been
misplaced is evident by the success of
the union itself.8 Good men in Office
is the best. ,thing4for any organization,
be it labor uniols banking institution
or lodge, and this is what the hat
tiers have always had. While looking
after their own organization they have
| not lost sight of the fact that they
are part and parcel of the great labor
movement Of this country and have
always assisted, ~ both morally and
financially, sister trade unions when
in trouble. . ~
'tThe hatters' organization is one
that has little trouble with its en-
ployers. The matters believe in arbl-
tration, pure and simple, and are
willing to meet the employer half way
at all times. Employees do not hastily
leave a factory in case of trouble, but
remain at work, if possible, until all
differences have been settled g.
Disputes are always settled by
committee from the organization and
the manufacturers. The hatters' or
ganizatio1 is business institution
i having made their success thru bust
ness principles, coupled with common
sense. They spend 100000 every yea1
educating the people in the country
to the union label idea, not forgetting
to express a friendly word for the
labels of other,acraSts as well as thei1
own.' Il
