One of the features of the big parade
will be the more than 1000 members of
Columbia Typographical Union, No. 101.
At the meeting of this union yesterday
afternoon the invitation to take part in
the demonstration was accepted and the
officers of the union were instructed to
make all necessary arrangements.
Another feature will be Plate Printers
Union, No. 2, which hitherto prded itself
upon always presenting something new
and novel whenever it appeared in pa
rade. 1t is said the committee in charge
of the arrangements for the plate printers
is preparing to surprise Washington by
having a genuine innovation in the torch
light parade the evening of Tuesday, Mo-
yember 26.
The committee Of the Plate Printers
Union comprises Charles T. Smith, p ].
Ryan, c. e. Mcclure, F. ]. McKenna,
William McCauley, Stephen Laut, Edward
Genoe, Jesse Watt, Jacob Huck John w.
CoontZ and w. d. Leissler, president of
the union. 1t was selected at a meeting OF
the union held yesterday afternoon at
G. A. r. Hall.
The Avenue Ablaze.
1t is the expectation of Grand Marshal
J. ]. McCracken that Pennsylvania ave-
nue. will be ablaze on the occasion of the
demonstration. At a recent meeting Of
ported that permission had been granted
by the District of Columbia authorities to
carry torches, banners, transparencies, 1t
being added that Objectionable transpa-
rencies will not be permitted. To pre-
vent the appearance of any of the latter
class, it is said, the proposed inscriptions
will be rigidly censored by Marshal Nc
Cracker and the committeeman.
Commening the parade, Editor De
Nedrey of the Trades Unionist says:
c n n "a
intent and spirit of the law, and the COM
mittee desires all unions participating in
the parade to aid and assist the commit
tee in keeping within the conditions gov
erning the issuance of permit for a pa
rade.
THE demonstration will be a rebuke to
the union busters in their attempt to
foist on the general public a class of un-
desirable out-oftown scabs, who come
here for the purpose of aiding in breaking
the lockout strike prevalent in the build
ing trades
of Greater Washington at heart, 1t will
be a revelation to see men IN line that
have maintained homes, reared families
and invested their earnings in homes in
this city, while they also may understand
that the strike-breaker is only transient.
the f1otSam and jetsam of scabbery, the
| tool of the selfish employer, who is en-
| deavoring to cheaper labor's cost, but
will not make the allowance in estimating
on his work. 1t means that what ne can
wiring from labor goes into his pocket,
| and the Scab is ms TOOL IN tne tTdnSac-
| ton.
For the better arrangement of the pa
| rade unions participating are requested
! to appoint committees for the purpose or
perfecting all details. 1t is suggested that
each organization have transparency
showing the name of the union and such
other ones as will be appropriate
