UN1oN1sM's PROBLEM.
When Union Men Are Consistent the
Victory Will be Won.


The most difficult problem to be
solved by organized labor is the one
great factor Of Union Consistency.
Everywhere we go in the interest Of
union label products we are met with
the statement that merchants must han
die what the trade demands, and that
union men do not demand union made
goods. This especially applies to goods
that in itself bears no evidence as
to the condition under which it was
made. Many a man will select his
hat with the assurance that the label
is in it, because some one may look
under the sweatband and find the truth
but when it comes to a cigar he may
buy any old scab, child labor, tene-
ment house or penitentiary-made prod
uct and stick the nasty product be-
tween his teeth, and his fellow com
rades cannot tell that he is scabbing
it on the union cigar makers.
If you find fellow who claims this
or that brand is the only thing he can
SulOhc, put Hill uOWu DIS DOCu hHOte
and fool Not one man out of a
million can do more than guess as to
the kind of tobacco he is smoking in
this age, and in most cases he cannot
positively distinguish between his ia
vorite brand and other brands much
better or inferior, if taken out of the
same box and his belief is that it is
the same. Get good free smoking
cigar and label it Roosevelt" and a
hide-bound follower of the colonel
would revel in heaven. Take the same
cigar to an opponent and he'd say its
punk. These are characteristics of
the smoker. If you believe in unions
smoke union made cigars and stick to
it and YOU III soon swear by them and
honestly so.

HOW IT Is DIVIDED.

Labor produces thirteen dollars in
wealth and receives two in the United
States. Special privilege produces
nothing and takes nine dollars, leaving
capital and labor to squabble over the
rest. The greatest special privilege
is that of land ownership in our large
land in New York City represent the
burden Of labor, for very nearly all
the people are tenants And the ten
ants have built the houses and paid
for them over and over again. What
they pay rent for is not houses, but
the land on which the houses rest.

BEST ARGUMENT FOR GOOD

Samuel Hill, president Of the State
Good Roads association, believes
j that there are few objections to good
roads which are not the objections
of ignorance.
He is of the opinion that when The
people of the state of Washington
as whole fully understand the Ques-
ton of good roads they will want
them simply because they will real
ize that it is to their personal inter
est to have them.
There is no question of the truth
of Mr.. Hills contention. The road
laws of the state are imperfectly
understood. Although the state aid

SECTS IN THE UNITED STATES

America has been reckoning up
its religions in it's national census,
and while we are always surprised
by our own multiplicity of sects when
the annual Whitaker appears, Amer
lea surely beats us. Plant sect in
the United States, and disunion oc-
ours. You would hardly expect to
find four varieties of Quakers; it
would puzzle you to imagine the diff
ferences between II sorts of Bap-
lists; and when it comes to "A kinds
of Lutherans-you wonder, and ask
whether this fssiparious habit of re-
| ligious sects is not sign of vital
health, especially at moment when

good roads at the minimum of ex-
pense to the farmer.
"HOw many people, asks Mr.. Hill,
know that state-aid roads, where
the county pays half and the state
pays half, are buit largely at the
expense of the municipalities and
cities. Out of every 500 spent on
these roads $51.92 is paid by taxes
from those living in towns, yet not
one dollar of this sum can be spent
within the corporate limits of a city
When the farmers come to under
stand that this is an actual gift made
to them by the people Of the city
they will to a man, l believe, favor

The best argument for good roads
in fact is to let people see good roads
and use them. 1t is invariably true
that those who are most enthusiastic
over good roads are those who, like
Mr.. Hill, know most about them
Every good road. as a natural conse-
quence, creates it's disciples. -

Waste Of Oak Trees.

There is no more striking example
on the Pacific coast of the ruthless de-
struction of timber than that which
follows the gathering of oak tanbark.
In the counties of Humboldt and Men.
docino in California the industry of Sc
curing oak tanbark has attained con.
siderable proportions.
Oak trees IS inches to three and
one-half feet in diameter, up to 40
feet to the limbs, are not uncommon.
To secure this bark the trees are felled
and the bark is stripped. The timber
is left untouched on the ground to rot.
Until railroad transportation can be
furnished this waste will probably
continue.
The bark in many instances is Sc
cured from individual claims, taken up
by homesteaders, the timber growth
being practically all oak, which is sac
rificed in order to exc out a precari-
GUS livelihood. From 400 to 600 cords
of bark can be obtained from claim.
Thousands of feet of good oak timber
is sacrificed each year to the bark
gatherer-Timberm

Shoe Hints.

Those of us who are always ripping
the facings or braid from our skirts
by catching heels in the braid or ia
cling, will be glad to learn of one wo-
man who has solved that aggravating
problem. Cut or file of the corners
of the heels of the shoes, those little
sharp corners are what do the mis-
chief. No one enjoys the sight of a
trailing bit of braid or facing. esne-
cially when it is fastened to her
own skirt.
Do the shoestrings come united ?
Moisten them just at the knot when
tying. If the little tins on the ends
come off, give them a good waxing
with beeswax and save time and tenn
per.
Never wear shoe with the heel
badly worn at the side or back as
they throw the body out of its prop
er poise. A lift or two may be added
to the heels at any time with SLIGHT
expense.
Shoes last much longer If two or
three pairs are worn alternately and
the changing of the shoes is a great
relief to tired feet.
Don't forget to black the heels
when giving the shoes shine.
