and we feel that we nave an interest in
the making OF the law. Unjust law affords
excuse for violations and so we feel that
II Is important that we should take an
interest in the making Of the law in order
that an injustice may not be done our
rights or interests. We expect a union man
to preside over the deliberations Of the
law making body of our state in the win
ter OF 1901. We expect to have mem
bers here to acquaint the people of the
state with the conditions that so directly
and vitality affect our welfare.
We believe in union made goods and
we believe in fostering and extending the
sentiment and principle Of buying union
made goods. We believe that the unions
should uphold a.d upbuild American labor
and American citizenship.
We appreciate the efforts and labor nut
forth by our labor commissioner in bring
