without personal anlmus but
with all charity, pr. Anna f..
Blloq cunt made great good use, in
one Of her woman suffrage
speeches last week, Of the reply
Of Lee O,Neil Browne, the Demo-
cratic leader in5 The Illinois legis~

replying: II love my mother too
we'll to allow her to descend into
the dirty pool Of politics. The
simple comment Of DR.. Blount
was that Mr.. Browne IS character
ization Of politics as a "dirty
pool" seems now to have indi-
Gated his own peculiar kind of
politics. It is indeed coming to
be a fair Inference that politicians
and business men who want to
keep clean people out of the
"dirty pool Of politics. are in
politics for the dirt and where it
is dirtiest, and that they don t
want the pool drained.

GOOD FOR AIT GEEsE7

w lhallllle one OF ft lae chief cnarac-
t ristics Of mechanics or other
manual workers trade unions is
that they get along without
charters or other legal :buttress,
IT is the leading characteristic Of
professional mems unions that
they seek to keep out compel
itors by surrounding their or
CARNATIONS by legal barriers.
That the medical fraternity does
So is a faet-whether for the bet
ter or worse Of the community is
not the question here. Now, what
frequently puzzles the wage
working trade tl1lionist is the pep.
perry way in which their fee-tak.
ing fellow unionists, the medieos,
rattle off stale arguments against
organized labor. Recently there
was an instance Of this sort in
New York in which a certain DR.:
Theodore Potter fumed in print
over the matter Of a trained
nurses union. He hurled at it's
members that good old standby
ia anti-union polemics, "dom.
mated by leaders. - DR.. Potter
got his answer a few days later
from a member of the Nurses
Settlement, who thus appealed to
the pubhc's good sense as against
the doctors nonsense: ~
In insinuating that nurses associ-
ations are being used to advance
the political interests and plans Of
organization politicians" I may say
seriously and frankly that DR.. Pot
ter is saying what is not true and
what is unworthy of his ethics as
physician. And ! aver that if the
record Of nurses associations and
cf medical associations in respect to
the furtherance of political interests
could be held up to the public, DR..
Totter would De .QDiage1 10 feel
ashamed of himself. If the nurses
of an Indiana city have affiliated
with the American Federation OF
Labor there must be some special
conditions endangering their stand
ards Of living in that particular
place. Such is not the usual trend
e nurses societies. However, i
would emphatically dissent from the
implied contempt of laboring men
which DR.. Potter's remark contains.
This failure to understand the need
Of workers to unite for that mutual
protection which is one of the first
articles Of the medical code arises
from a narrowness of social view
Point which is conspicuous in many
medical men as in other specialists
Who, limited by specially, fail to
grasp the meaning of democracy.

Mcknight, who is a true son of

quite quit generally expected that he will

Upon our word, the prospects
for unionism are brighter than
ever when such j: men as Post set
about getting union raw material
together and patting it into the

Post, can You point Us out any
where on the face Of this globe
any any body Of wage-workers or
Eganized in a benevolent society,
OF otherwise, who have not finally
eAerted on their employers the

c*me a straight-out union, or
who have not been kept by their
employers from joining the union
movement only through wages
and conditions maintained about

The day Mr.. Post s non-union
union calls for mediation and the
expression of public opinion re-
garding their wages, hours and
ccnditions-these being the meth
eds Of the proposed organization,
as prescribed by Mr.. Post-look
cut for what is always in the
background in such case,
namely, the possibility of a walk
cut and a merging of yellow into
white unionism. Mr.. Post ex-
poets that under the favorable
condition of having T. R. as it's
president, his organization twill
gain two million members in a
year, Delighted! In a year or
two afterwards the American
Federation of Labor will have
four million members, for it will
by that time have swallowed the
yellow Post union. So brilliant
is this prospect that we are
sclemnly inclined to offer T. R.
another hundred thousand if he
will accept Agitator Post s prop
osition!

PEACEFUL STRIKE HAD
SATISFACTORY ENDING

One Of the most peaceful strikes
on record was conducted by the
United Brotherhood of Leather
Workers on horse goods in their
efforts to gain the eight-hour day.
During the entire period Of cessaa-
ton of work no disturbances are
recorded.
The hours Of employment in
the saddlery industry prior to the
strike varied from nine to ten,
and the wages the lowest received
by any skilled mechanics. The
average yearly wage being less
than $12 per week.
While their efforts to establish
the eight hour day proved unsuc-
cessful, nevertheless, it resulted
in putting into effect a universal
nine-hour day.
Notwithstanding the peaceful
attitude of the Leather Workers
during the entire trouble they
were bitter] y opposed by the Ma
tional Saddledy Manufacturers as
ISOLATION, who declared early in the
strike that their doors would be
forever barred to members of the
brotherhood. This, however, only
had the effect Of making the men
all the more determined, and they
decided rather than submit to
such overbearing tyrants they
would leave the trade, and no
less than 1000 secured employ
ment at other occupations.
The Saddlery association, in or
der to get even, decided to hire
boys and unskilled labor and
teach them the trade in three or
four weeks; this, however, proved
dismal failure and the individual
firms began to break over and Of
fered a compromise of nine hours
with q substantial increase ia
wages, which was accepted by the
brotherhood.

In the way of equality and it is all

another court which gave another de-

In CONSEQUENCE of this second de-

and the result was a new trial.
