$4,000 of which amount was
cheerfully paid by the members
themselves, who won the fight,
while the employers association
known as the United Tpyothe-
ae of America-which opposed
the Inauguration of the eight-hour
day, is a wreck. The I. T. U. al
SO has five-year agreement with
the American Newspaper Publish
ers association, which body in
cludes nearly all the great daily
newspapers of the country.
No organization has had so
many local strikes and lockouts
to contend with as the Brother
hood of Carpenters. During the
past decade this union has been
battered by building contractors
from one end of the country to
the other, and the money losses
/ must have mounted we'll into the
millions. But the brotherhood
seemed to thrive on opposition, as
les records show that while at the
close of 1898 the union numbered
10000, the membership today is
10000.
The Brotherhood of Painters,
like the carpenters. have also had
their troubles with hostile en-
ployers associations, but they in
creased their strength during 10
years of hard struggle from 1900
to over 10000. The plumbers
increased fourfold-from 1000 to
16,500. The electrical workers
gained tenfold; the machinists
fivefold; the street railway men
tenfold, and the seamen fivefold.
Where the bakers had 2,100
members 10 years ago, they have
nearly 1900 today, largely on
account of attacks made upon
them by boss bakers. The brew
cry workers have had some hard
contests, and increased from TO-
600 to about 10000 members.
The hotel and restaurant employees
increased to nearly $4,000 from
barely $500 in 1898.
The hatters' union has now been
under fire for six months, battling
against the open shop. and since
1908 has been fiercely fought in
the courts at enormous cost. But
they have doubled their member
ship, their ranks are solid, and it
is almost an impossibility for hat
manufacturers to operate without
employing union men.
Store clerks have increased
from 5000 to $4,000; BARRIERS
from 5000 to $4,000; stationary
engineers from 1900 to 10000:
firemen from nothing to $4,000;
musicians from 5000 to $500,
and so on all through the list.
There may have been a few unions
that lost members, btu they are
rare exceptions.

COMING A. f. OF Il. CONVEN-
TION-UNION GROWTH IN A
DECADE - THRIVED DES-
PITE "OPEN SHOP"
BY Peter Power

/
The American Federation of La
Dor, which meets in Toronto next
week, is composed of about 120
national and international unions,
which in turn have some $1,000
affiliated local unions, with a to-
tai membership of approximately
1000, 900 men and women.
There are about 20 national or
CARNATIONS, as well as numerous
loctS unions, with a combined
membership of close to a million,
that are not attached to the A. f.
of L. They comprise the railway
brotherhoods, the bricklayers and
masons, metalliferous miners,
glass workers, etc.
The federation, as such, has lit
tie power, it being a voluntary alli-
ance guaranteeing home rule, or
trade autonomy" to each affiliat-
ed body. In recent years, owing
to jurisdictional disputes between
various international unions, there
has been a tendency to increase
the power of the declarations. but
the most successful of the affil-
lated organizations are inclined to
combat the Capitalization idea and
uphold the policy of noninterfer-
ence, setting up the claim that
only by the most rigid observance
of the principles of democracy and
home rule have the organizations
prospered, despite all the antag-
onisms they have been compelled
to face.
And theonward march of the
hosts of labor has not been over a
pathway strewn with roses, even
though it has been triumphant in
many respects. 1t has been an up
hill struggle, frequently requiring
enormous sacrifice and fighting
for every inch of ground.
The most formidable obstacle
that has been utilized to block the
advance of labor has been the So
called movement for the open shoI
inaugurated about ten years age
by the National Association OF
: Manufacturers, which secured the
cooperation of many powerful
capitalists, public officials, edu-
Gators and other professionals.
Yet, despite many bitter strug-
giles, entailing heavy financial
losses on both sides by wage
strikes. lockouts. boycotts and
blacklists, the unions gained in
numbers, sometimes slowly and
steadily, quite often in leaps and
\ bounds.
Thus a decade ago the United
Mine Workers counted only 16,-
600 men, but today they can count
better than 16 to 1 over the for
mer period, or a total of 265,0O0.
They have had a number of ma
tional Strikes, with the result
that, excepting in certain districts
IN west Virginia and Pennsylvan-
la, they have won full recognition
of the union, the eight-hour day,
higher wages and other improve
ments in the bituminous coal dis
tricts. Even the anthracite barons
have been compelled to concede
partial recognition and do business
with the union.
The International Typographical
union now numbers nearly 10000
, having nearly doubled it's member.
, ship in 10 years. This organization
refuses to recognize the y term
: open shop" classifying PRINTING
offices as union or non-union. The
Typographical union has probably
fought the greatest labor battle in
the present generation. In its con.
test for the eight-hour day the
union spent $5,OOO,OO0, all but

"In Dreamland," which comes

was a headliner for two season at
all leading theaters in America
and Canada. So great was the de-
mand for the playlet that Emmett
Dewey, its author, who also enacts
the stellar role, decided to build
1t up into full-fledged play, and
the result is the present three-act
offering.
