Rem RICE GETS
RESULTS

Len Caldwell, a colored man of
Fort Worth, Texas, offers a solu-
ton of the servant girl problem
which Rem Rice has lost a few
hairs worrying over. Caldwell
says he will come to Spokane and
guarantee entire satisfaction as a
servant, cook, etc, if he can get a
job. He says that not only is he
willing to come, but there are lots
of others. The letter was sub
mitted to Mr.. Rice today and from
the way he smiled it is thought that
he will soon deliver a blow that
will fix the problem plenty. He has
about given up consideration of
girls for servants, and may COM
municate "wif Mistah Caldwell"
Following is the letter:

John Wesley, Mrs. Emma Shirley,
who conducts a rOOming house at
PHO Eugenia St, says she has been
enabled to give S1000-nearl yevery
cent of ready cash she possessed
to endow Bible work in Japan. Most
of the money was saved 10 cents at
a time, The rest of the amount was
raised by keeping boarders during
the worlds fair in 1904. The in.
terest on this sum will support a
Bible woman or deaconess in Japan.
why did | give $1,000 for mis-
sionary purposes" asked Mrs. Shir-

doze them into resembling their
previous action in seating Rev.
Hindley. They claim that he could
do the cause Of labor no possible
harm if granted a seat, but that the
mere fact that he was refused a
seat was one of the hardest blows
dealt the local unions in years, as it
leads the general public to suppose
that the local labor organizations
are dominated by the Retail Liquor
Dealers association.
Apologists for the bartenders
claim the action of the Central La
Dor union was taken on purely con-
stitutional grounds, but this state
ment is not taken seriously by
those familiar with the facts. Min
listers have been seated in the con-
vention of the American Federation
Of Labor and in the State Fedora
ton of Labor, as well as in local
central bodies in other cities.
Union men of this and other
cities believe the clergy as a rule
has opposed labor organization, but
they say that most of this opposi-
ton has been due to ignorance and
this would be remedied by allowing
them to investigate and understand
union principles by actual contact

UNIONS RESENT
SHUTTING OUT
CLERGY

Members of the various labor
unions not allied with the Bar
tenders union openly express in
dignation at the stand taken by that
union against the seating of Rev.
w. J. Hindley as fraternal dele
gate from the Ministerial associa-
ton. The labor men say that they
are now represented before the pub
lie, in a measure, as the allies of
the saloon element of the city.
They further state that the action
of the local bartenders will do
more to create sympathy for the
clergy with all classes than any
thing that could have happened and
will do much to bring about a
closed town.
c. o. Young, district organizer OF
the American Federation of Labor
speaks highly of the work being
done by the clergy for the better
ment of labor. He says that the
and other cities are working har-
moniously with organized labor at
Olympia for the enactment of an
eight hour law for working women.
The Seattle ministers investigated
conditions in that city in depart
ment stores. restaurants and laun-
dries and found that the half had
not been told of the deplorable con-
ditions existing among the girls and
women employed in those establish
ments, and it was clergyman who
presented to the state federation
the resolutions adopted by the Sc
attic ministers urging the enact
ment of the shorter work day.
The bartenders STATED that they
would withdraw from the Central
Labor union unless the clergy were
kept out. and were to be followed
it was stated, by the cooks and
kitchen helpers and the walters and
mattresses, in all about 500 men
and women.
1t is stated by local union men
that the international laws of these
unions would compel them to again
affiliate with the central body
should they withdraw. This law, il
is further stated, originated in this
city and was supported at the inter
national convention by the presi
dent of the local Bartenders
union.
Delegates to the Central Labor
union from the local unions are be
ing criticised by members of their
unions for allowing the delegates
from the Bartenders' union to bull.
