EVERYBODY PULL FOR EIGHT
HOUR DAY.

Conditions in the machinists eight
hour strike are growing brighter with
each passing week. Shops here and
there along the coast continue to sign
up. twenty four shopso having granted
the eight-hour day in Seattle alone.
Locally, the situation remains unchang
ed since our last issue, but the boys
are out to stay indefinitely. The ma
chinists have won many a hard fought
battle in this country through their
ability to stand the grueling of long
fight and are ready to fight down the
line in this one for an indefinite period,
if necessary. 1t is hoped, however, that
a prolonged struggle will not be neees-
sary. 1t depends a good deal on the kind
of support received from the allied
trades and all sister organizations Ev-
erv union man is, or should be, inter
ested in seeing the eight-hour day for
machinists won and won speedily and
every bit of pressure that can be brought
to bear or help rendered should be given.

festivities more jovial and tighten the
burdens, if there be any, of the mighty
throng which are pouring into the city
on every train and boat. The city has
already taken on an appearance of well
come and good fellowship not exhibited
by any other city, and the hotels have
made arrangements to care for the large
crowds who will remain in the city dur
ing the three days.
There have been so many entries in
the athletic events, the work-horse pa
rade and the pyrotechnic parade that
visitors will witness the grandest spec
tacles ever demonstrated in the county.
Fireworks and illuminations of every
description will brighten the evenings,
and the various sports will furnish
amusement for the throngs that care
for this sort of things.
Everett is positively assured a great
celebration, and her people should stay
at home. Help the good work along.

SUCCESSFUL
MERCHANT
Owes His Affluence to
Part Organized Labor
Has Taken to Improve
Conditions of w ag e
Working Glass.

"There is one good reason if no other
why business men, especially merchants,
should favor union labor ir preference
to cheap non-union labor, and that rea.
scon is that if labor is poorly pard the
wage carmen will have no money to
spend with the merchant" says A. R.
Wyatt in the American Federationist.
Every business man knows if he will
stop to think, that the retail house de-
pends upon the wage earners for 80 per
cent of their trade. If he had to depend
upon the trade of the rich for his sup
port, the retail merchant would stand
small chance of succeeding. If the work
ing people are prosperous the merchant
thrives from his trade and if the work
ing people are cut down it takes just
that much cash from the till of the
business man and just that much COM
fort from the cottage fireside. Is that
not sufficient reason why the busi-
ness men in this country should sup
port and encourage the great mass of
organized labor? The union men in this
country are not so blind or deaf that
they do not know their friends. They
know the sentiment and attitude of ev-
cry business man of any prominence
and careless or sighting remark made
against organized labor finds its way
into the meeting place of the toiling
masses as fast as one spoken in it's
favor.
"It has been said that unionism and
anarchy travel hand n hand, but they
are as far removed from each other to-
day as heaven is from the last resting
place of the man who deserted his
union. Union men today are the bone
and sinew of civilization and our re-
publican form of government. In times
of war the union man is the first to
shoulder the musket and rush to the de-
fense of our flag. Union men are the
champions of right and justice, and they
have the manhood to resist oppression
from those who would sap from them,
drop by drop, the means of support for
their wives and children"

LABOR TEMPLE ASSOCIATION IN.

A special meeting of the stockholders
of the Everett Trades Building Assoeia
tion was held in the Temple last week
for the purpose of voting an increase
in the capital stock of the association.
The stock was raised from 1000 shares,
common, to 10000 shares, common. As
soon as the legal formality of recording
the increase with the secretary of state
is concluded, 1000 shares at dollar
each will be placed on the market. The
object of the increase in capitalization is
to procure funds to procure suitable

desirability of taking this step was
pointed out in a former issue of The

Happily there are not very many
merchants mean enough to do this trick,
but once in while some two-by-four
groceryman will try to aid the fellows

conditions upon their employees, viz, by
shutting off credit as soon as they be-
come involved in strike or lockout.

who have been steady, paying custom
ers for years, denied credit. There are
men in all trades who have run up
against just such proposition and 1t

that very few grocerymen will so treat

THE UNION
PLAN BEST
Government G an Save
Money by Operating
Ship Yards With Union
Labor on Eight Hour
Plan.

The legislative committee of the In
ternational Association of Machinists
few days ago brought some very un-
pleasant facts to the attention of the
corporation senators in Washington by
furnishing undisputabe proof that bat
tleships built on the eight-hour day
system cost must less than those con
structed on the ten-hour plan.
The figures submitted by the ma
chinists nearly paralyzed Senators Hale
and Gallinger, the two hidebound New
England trust partisans who had braz-
enly stated on the floor of the senate
that ships built under the eight hour
workday cost so per cent more than
vessels constituted under contract where
there is no limitation to the hours of
labor.
The eight hour question reached
focus during the discussion over the
naval appropriation bill in the senate
when the two legislative champions of
trust methods and long hours told out
rageous falsehoods regarding the rela
tive cost of battleship construction un-
der union and non union conditions.
Their misstatements were so glaring
that the machinists We're aroused to
speedy action.
The trust senators emphasized the
81, - L,% - h,
eight hour ship, had cost $7,9ll,2 ,254,
while the Louisiana, a ten-hour ship,
was built at a cost of $7,l25,70l, diff
ference of per cent. No reference
was made to the fact that extra equip
ment required by the Connecticut
caused the additional difference in the
cost of the vessel. That fact was care
fully hidden by the two trust-open shop
advocates. Their modification at be
ing caught distorting the real facts
became more keen when the machinists
submitted the following figures to ey-
Iery member of congress:
"Since going into commission the cost
of repairs on the Connecticut have been
Sill ,S33.5S, and on the Louisiana,
$l49,l67 These figures have been tax
en- from the report of the paymaster
general of the navy and have been veri
fled by the assistant secretary of the
navy.
This showing of 33 pr cent in ia
vor of the eight-hour ship, we believe,
proves eonclusively the economic ad-
vantages of the eight-hour workday in
the construction of these ships
The machinists Legislative commit
tee also called attention to the fact
that when government contracts are let
with no limitation as to the hours of
labor, they invariably go to the firms
where the very worst labor conditions
prevail and where a low grade of work
manship must be expected.
"The Bethlehem Steel Company" said
the committee. "boasted of receiving
50, 100000 worth of govrnment contracts
each year We ask members of the
senate to read the report of the United
States commissioner of labor on condi-
tions in that plant"
Despite the fact that both the Re-
publican and Democratic national plat
forms promised the eight hour workday
on all government work, the greatest
viligance is required on the part of the
machinists' legislative committee to

nerve goes wrong, then the organ
that this nerve controls will also

to this vital truth. DR.. Shoop's Re-
