FROM OUR EXCHANGES.
E AL ST ISSUES.

The VAN leaVe- bunch of would-bes
trade. union busters" have persist
entity raised a false impression CON:
corning the attitude Of organized labor
towards the courts and nave Indus
triallys kept it before the general pub
lies Organized labor asks for no spe-
cial privileges but insists upon certain
rights and the freedom to- exercise
them without let..or hindrance by judge
made law. Organized labor is respon-
sible for all Its acts and demands that
If it 3transgresses any Of the. written
laws of our. country. that it be tried
by due process OF law and before a
jury of its peers. We object to the
issuance of injunctions in trade dis.
putes' but do not ask to be made i'm
mune from the operation OF existing
laws preventing the destruction Of life,
liberty and property Labor is not
the property Of the employing class;
the adoptio ,nof the 14th amendment
forever settled this important ques-
ton. An Injunction which restraints
union or its members from speaking
to or offering aid or advice to the
nom unionist or strike breaker implies
property right at least in the non
unionist Or strike breaker.
We. object to the restoration Of
property rights in human beings by
the judgemade Injunction process. In
this we are absolutely right from any
conceivable standpoint and everybody
understanding the situation, including
Van lCleave~ret al, knows it., .r

KEEP YOUR HEAD.

The familiar admonition Keep your
head was never more In order than
applied to the American workingman
at this very moment. The indictments
to make him 'lose his head" are about
him, thick and active. He who can
pursue the even tenor Of his way, re-
Numbering above all things that he is
a union man and making that re-
membrance his dominating sugges-
ton, will prove himself possessed Of
a mastery of mind and consistency Of
spirit rare and encouraging.
Every citizen should give attention
to politics.: The good union man will
not neglect his political duty. But he
will make his politics consistent with
his .unionism. He will not stand like
a rock for his unionism and be sifted
like sand in the hands of the poll
tician. He will insist. that the man
who asks for his vote has the label
on him ass days in the year. In other
words, he will weigh: him in the bal
ances OF unionism. -~.
One Of the most distracting influ-
ences to turn the head Of the working
man in these tense times is the we'll
meaning but poor-thinking enthusiast
who is bent on public revolution: Ev-
erything is wrong. Turn everything
upside down.! Everybody in office is
a. public enemy. Vote them all out!:
There is good IN nothing that IS: Let,
nothing remain as It IS! They do not,
bar the labor union itself

ion man, not revolution. Everything

FACTS AND FIGURES.
FOR BUSINESS MEN
Merchants Should ~Bear in Mind That
Their Prosperity Depends
Upon Labor.

The: prosperity of the, business man
depends upon the workers having a
chance 10 exist How can we explain
to the business man that his interest
depends upon the. worker having a
chance 70 live? The answer is by
placing facts and figures before him
for his consideration, IT, a. worker
gets for his labor 81 a day., and: works
an average of 200 days, a year, he has
$50 Otto spend with the. business man,
which aids, the business: man, in his
pursuit, of. interest, rent, and profit
getting. The business man is striving
for wealth and property, while the
wage. Garner as rule is only striv-
ing for what he terms,3a good living,
a*rlda change to educate his children.
II a wage Garner has $500 a year to
spend, the business man is the one
that gets it., In interest, rent and pro-
fit, but If the worker only gets $500
a year. the business man is 5000 short,
and who can he blame for it? If the
wage Garner gets $50 Ca year he is
able to pay his bills, while on the.
5000 proposition he is compelled to
leave some bills unpaid as we will
show In figures below We will say
that the average worker gets 1925 per
day, and he has a family of &ve, and
gets an average Of 200 days work a.
year. which amounts to $3.50 per year.
We will allow each In family cents
meal, three meals a day for 1855
days or one year. which amounts to
s27S.75. We will lallow for clothing,
shoes and hats, SO each, which is $50;
school expense, $751; house rent $40:
per month, $500 per year; fuel and
lamp oil, $50 per year. We will not
allow anything for doctor. and drug
bills Sunday school and church ex-
pense, nothing for car fare, tobacco
or beer. These items are omitted. We
will now see what his expenses, are:

1t is such conditions that pauperize
millions and brings thousands TO- pow
crty and crime, drives men TO suicide,
mothers and sisters TO prostitution o1n
The living Of the average wage worker
and his family is more, like that OF
the homeless dog than that Of an
American citizen. Now then Mr. Bust
ness Man, as you will see from the
figures above, someone has got to
suffer, and who should It be? III
