ways by which he could do harm. A
fire started at one corner of the hut
at midnight, the same Indian-like
malice applied to their two tents, the
stealing of their canoes or the gashing
OF them with a hunting knife, and
countless other methods of venting
spite, presented themselves. In a way,
they were helpless against such a
nfght-prowling enemy. Over one hun

Then, Chips presence was an added
danger. If once this brute found that
she was here, there was no limit to
what he would do to secure her and
take revenge. They had smug@led her
past Tins Place, but eoncealment
here was impossible; If ever this half
breed returned, she would be discov

Fifteen million pairs of shoes We're
turned out of the factories of Brock

had the union label on IT.
Lewiston evening teller. [volume] (Lewiston, Idaho) 1903-1911, 1907-03-16

Nine labor unions. with a member
ship exceeding 500, are shown by the
records at Union Hall, and each un-
ion is being strengthened by new
members at almost every meeting.
The toll of the city is principally
performed by union labor, and since
the perfection of the various organiza-
tions, the conditions of the lab0rers
have been materially improved.
Wages for all classes of labor have
been advanced, the hours of toll re-
duCed and a union of interests per-
fected by which protection is afforded
to all.
The unions now operating in the
city are: Printers, stone masons,
carpenters, plumbers, pain ters, lath-
ers, plasterers, bartendeTs, walters,
and the general labor organization, the
members of which are engaged in all
departments of unskilled labor.
Benefits of Organization.
The meetings OF the organizations
are held In Union Hall on east Main
street where comfortable quarters,
with reading and recreation rooms,
have been provided.
The benefits of the organizations
are not only enjoyed by the member
ship of the locals, but extend to all
members of the orders who may be in
distress
The typographical union has been
sending funds to assist in the main
tenance of distressed brothers for the
past two years, and at one time the
regular assessment, aside from the
regular dues, amounting to ten per
cent of the salary of each member.
These assessments were sent to the
headquarters of the International
Typographical Union at Indianapolis.
and from there disbursed to those
cities where the organization was in
dispute with employers over the eight
hour day which became general to
the membership throughout the United
States and Canada January 1, 1905.
This assessment has been gradually
decreased until now the membership
is sending out but two per cent of its
earnings, but the generous spirit of
assistance remains and the call for
aid is speedily answered

PAUL D0UMER
TO VISIT U. S.
Noted French Socialist to
Attend Dedication In
PittSburg

WASHINGTON, d. c., March 49,
Paul Doumes. ex-president of the
French chamber of deputies, whom
the cable dispatches state will arrive
in this country within a week or two
to attend the Inauguration of the Car
negie Institute at Pittsburg, is one of
the prominent men in the public life
of France
Though a member of the radical
party, he is said to be extremely
moderate in his views, with a leaning
toward the broader aspect of social
ism.
M. Doumer is just so years of age
He was medal-marker's apprentice
at Is, a graduate in mathematics at
20, and teacher OF that science at
Lycee of Laon. In 1888 he was elected
deputy; in 1895 was minister of A.
nance, and from 1896 to 1902 was gov
ernor-general of Indo- China.
Was Mentioned for President.
Two years ago he was chosen pres
ident Of the chamber OF deputies, and
a year later was prominently men
toned as a candidate for president of
the republic to succeed NJ. Loubet.
Personally M. Doumer represents the
financial side of pure radicalism, and
In particular the income tax. In 1895
he brought up his project for "glob-
al and progressive income tax" which
should take the place Of the compli-
Gated personal system of taxation.
based mainly on rent paid with side
vexations of doors and windows.
The measure was defeated and caus-
ed the downfall OF the Bourgeois min
istry, in which Doumer was finance
minister.
