TO our readers and friends Of Or
ganized labor:
The Labor World extends to you its
heartiest wishes that you may all have
a joyous New Year, full Of happiness
and peace; that you and yours may
be blessed with health and prosperity;
and that each successive year may
come to you all, laden with an abun
dance Of the good things of life.
The world of today is happier, and
wiser, and richer, by reason Of your
labor organizations having been in it;
but the possibilities Of the future are
manifoldly greater than the accom-
plishments Of the past.
The work of education along indus
trial lines must be prosecuted by or
ganized labor with greater earnestness
if possible than ever before. Honest
capital and intelligent labor operating
together in a united harmony Of pow
er-their rights adjusted by the Gold
en- Rule-are the bulwarks Of our CIV
ilization, and the man or combination
of men, who would seek to create dis
sension between the two, is unworthy
Of American citizenship.
We pen the last sentence advised1y,
and have no apologies to make to the
so called National Association Of Man.
ufacturers, it's emissaries agents or
local representatives. It and they are
today plotting for the destruction Of
organized labor and the subversion
Of our industrial liberty.
We are happy in the thought that
efforts put forth by such greedy mon
opolists, watered value promoters,
market manipulators and child labor
advocates, only accelerate the pro-
gress of organized labor towards the
betterment of mankind

WHAT UNIoNlsM HAS DONE.

Every Improvement in the working
condition Of the masses and in the d.
rection of increased wages, shorter
hours, freedom of contract, individual
liberty, child labor laws, weekly pay
days, better homes, better food, more
and better clothing, and everything
that we now enjoy politically, socially
and economically, are the direct and
sole result Of trades-union methods
and trades union activities.
In the beginning and down to the
advent Of trades unionism the work.
ers possessed no rights that the en-
ployers were bound to respect
The worker originally was appropri-
ated by the land owner, who looked
upon him as so much collateral and in
ventOried him just the same as he
would the buildings, stock and other
fixtures associated with the land and
with positively no more rights than
those possessed by the dogs and other
animals. Families were parted and
sold with as little regard for their
feelings as so many cattle. People
were brought to this country as late
as 1918 and sold to the highest bidder
for their passage money, and were
compelled to serve from five to fifteen
years, with no compensation except
their board and clothing, 70: the pur-
pose Of paying off the debt. These
intolerable conditions existed until
trades-union movement put stop to
them. And we again emphasize the
fact that they would be the rule today
We're 1t not for trades-unions.
Every advantage the workingman
now enjoys, compared with former
times, was obtained through trades
union effort, and we assert were it not
for trades-unions the condition Of the
workers today would be precisely what
it was 100 or 200 years ago.

1t is not the intention of labor or
CARNATIONS to organize for tie purpose
of challenging the employer for a.
fight. Labor unions are organized for
the betterment of the workingman's
conditions. He has tried for years to
better his condition, individually, but
has failed; so the only course to pur-
sue was to unionize with his fellow
worker The manufacturer is so mar
row-minded that he will not reason
with his employees, thus causing dis
putes. Organized labor will always
meet the manufacturer half way, and
will try to avid trouble if the employer
will assist.

1t is absurd for any Individual, or
collection of individuals, to say that
they have right to run their own
business In any way they see fit.
There Is no business that can be con-
Quoted but that In some way relates
to society, and 1t nust be subject to
such regulations as society demands
irrespective of the will Of the individ-
ual, or individuals, who are conduct
ing the business. The business of the
employer and his business interests
are no more Independent tnan the
business Of the employee and his busi-
ness interests, and both must observe
such limited rights as society may
properly impose upon them.s

expressing Of the poor for the emolu-
ment of ricn. II he did not condemn,
he at least looked askance upon the
accumulation Of money, and pointed
out its dangers. He taught the doc
trine of fair distribution of the pro-
ducts Of toll. With such ideals and
teachings, Is there not some basis for
the belief that were he IT, come to

not be wined, dined and ceressed, as
was the representative of the unscru-
pulous and avaricious gang known as
the National Association of Manufac-

that those captains of industry, lords
of finance, and their hangers on,
would class him as a presumptuous
carpenter-a labor agitator?
Born within a lowly stable, where
the cattle round me stood,
Trained carpenter in Nazareth, I
have toiled, and found 1t good.

They who work without complaining

Where the tired workman sleepeth,

GOSPEL OF UNlONlSM.

Although an unholy war is today
waged against unionism in Duluth by
the misguided adherents Of the Ma
tional Association of Manufacturers,
yet progress and peace are the two
words which represent the gospel of
organized labor.
Decent wages and reasonable hours
Of labor are advocated for the purpose
of placing within the reach of the
wage-e Garner the means of growth with
happiness and the opportunity Of en-
joy1ng it. Labor asks for fairer
share in the fruits Of production, and
asks for some leisure in which to enjoy
it.
It may have been supposed in the
past that fair wages and shorter hours
meant merely improvidence and sloth,
and perhaps a very few parsons still
entertain this view But for the fair
minded observer Of whatever class
there is incontestable evidence that the
trades-union has brought about,
through higher wages and shorter
hours, greater prudence and thrift,
better individual discipline and more
general activity and temperance
among the workingmen than ever ex-
listed before.
Tn hot SoI
higher wages failed to accomplish good
results? We find that in every occu-
patton wherein the wage Garner works
fewer hours and receives juster share
of the product of labor in the form Of
higher wages he is a more temperate
more industrious and more saving
character than he ever was before,
The critic who sneers at the fact
that bricklayers, for example, wear
good clothes and have pianos in their
homes is refuting himself out Of his
own mouth and pointing at the sound
est argument in favor Of higher wages
and shorter hours, for that same class
Of critics was the one that once Said
that the workman would spend his
hours of leisure in purchasing with his
the interests of both and the welfare
of the country generally.
Industrial oppression does not and
1t never did come from the orsanixed
workman. 1t has always ernAnated
from the hands Of the master-and
while it is admitted that there have
been cases Of unwarranted dictation
and possibly wrong-doing at the hands
of labor in some instances, vet this
does not justify the unfriendly rela-
tons between employer AMI emplove
Labor Is teaching fair methods and
square dealing, with the EMPLOYING
class, and it demands these things in
return. The day of irresponsible labor
and lntollerant exactions upon the en-
ployer Is past, and the same rule
should apply to the employing class.
The ambition of organized worknen is
to be just and to receive justice in
return, and this just dealing and rec
ognition of the rights of each vii, in
the end prevail.
The labor world. [volume] (Duluth, Minn.) 1896-current, 1907-12-28

Arbitration is constantly gaining
ground in the minds Of the laboring
classes as the most satisfactory method
Of settling differences between en-
ployer and employee. The desire for
temperate and sane adjustment of dis
strides the workman has made by
reading and study. The day Is not

trAte," will be considered for what it

ORGANIZATION OF EMPLOYERS

Let it be understood once and for
all that We have no objections what
ever to employers organizations. Bv
all means let them organize, but In
coming together. instead Of preaching
industrial warfare and devising ways
and means Of raising funds to fight
union labor as the so-called National
Association OF Manufacturers does, let
them discuss and establish measure.
