A FINANCIAL SUCCESS.

Chairman Oscar Anderson of the ar
rangements committee for the dance OF
Typographical Union No 49 has closed
his accounts in giving the mammoth ball
of this organization, and in making the
final report at the meeting of No. 40 Sun
day announced that the net result was
SGS. The union does not expect to make
money from these entertainments, and
the fact that a small amount is made
after going to the several hundred dol
lars worth of expense IN giving ball at
FL Jebel Temple reflects much credit on
Chairman Anderson and his energetic
committee. The proceeds were turned
into tie monument fund, fund created
on the initiative of George Mccormick,
now foreman of the composing room of
the Post, who, it will be remembered,
conducted successful affairs of this nature
for this organization.

DO UNIONS Benefit.

If bank should advertise that it
would pay 25 per cent. interest on &C.
counts, every man that had a dollar
would be breaking his neck to get it de-
posted in order to draw some of that
large interest. But when you Tell them
that a labor organization will pay 500
per cent. on their investment, many of
them pass it by without the least bit of
consideration.
To convince any non-union man who
may chance to read this paper, We will
illustrate the fact and let him be the
judge. We know a man who was work
ing for 50 day. He Joined the organiza-
ton of his craft and his wages were in
creased to So day. He had invested
in this organization his monthly dues,
which were so cents. He received just
$26 a month increase on his investment
of so cents a month, which is just exact
ly 5000 per cent. a month on the in
vestment. Is there any institution in the
world that will give you more for your
money? Still, when an international
union sends out an organizer at heavy
expense, endeavoring to better the con-
dition of the man who tolls, he is re-
ceiYed with this query. What will I
get out of ito" or How will it benefit
me?" 1t is strange that the organizer
can hold his temper when such foolish
questions are put to him

ONE WAY TO JUDGE.

Unionism should not be judged by its
worst features. but by its general char
acteristics. 1t does not ask to be judged
by its best qualities. There is good and
bad in all institutions. Their real value
lies in their general attributes. Unionism
has Objectionable features. but even
these, when properly understood. lose
much of their observation-disclosures.
The real test OF an institution lies in
its helpfulness to those who need help.
The union stands Tor the progress of the
plain people. Its word is personality. Its
aim is to lift the standard of toiling man
hood and womanhood. 1t has done much
and will do more 70 make the multitude
happier and better To criticise it apart
from recognition of this purpose is to
do 1t an injustice Chronicle

gram was used by the Bartenders at their
dance. and it contained the ad of the
Silver Grill, one of the most unfair houses
in the city. The only time they will al
