ESTABLISHED
NEW RECORD
A California Sawyer Cut
$4,000 Shingles on Up
right Machine 10 Hours

Everett is the home of several cham
pins and near champions in the shingle
weaving industry and their ranks have
been augmented by the arrival of a
weaver from Humboldt County, Cali
fornia, who holds a record for saving
on an upright that has never been equal
led so far as we know.
Tony Sutro is little man, not much
bigger than a minute, but he holds the
enviable distinction in shingle circles of
cutting l44,000 in ten hours on a
Hansen upright machine. This cut was
made during the summer of 1906 at the
Press Shingle mill at Buckport, Cali
fornia. Mr.. Sutro says the timber for
the cut was picked and piled out in
preparation for the run but that it was
used up about 4 o'clock in the after
noon and from then on he had to take
the timber just as it came He made
the cut without being spelled off and
used but six saws. This record for an
upright machine will stand for a long
time without being duplicated. A Hum
boldt county paper says of this per
formance:
"The making of this last record gives
to the Press mill not only the highest
record for one machines cut, but also
of that of two and three machines in
combination also all weekly and month
ly reeordI for one machine. This
phenomenal cut amounted to l44,000
and was made with Is guage saws, with
81 full swedged tteth, turning 1850
revolutions a minute with an average
carriage speed of SO clips per minute,
the minimum clip being so clips and the
maximum about 89. The saws stood
well on the highest clip, but the danger
of breaking the carriage was too great
to admit carrying that feed on very
heavy blocks"
If Mr.. Sutro can secure work he in
tends remaining in Everett and will send
for his family in California to follow
him here. He is a member of Eureka
Shngle Weavers' union and attended a
meeting of the local boys last Tuesday
night.

WELL KNOWN UNIONIST
ENTERS BUSINESS

System Wall Paper House" at 2s25
Pine street and means to get his share
of the trade. Paper hanging, painting,

Another thing Mr.. Philips told The
Journal man that listened good 20 him,
was that no man could work for him
that did not have a union card in his
pocket. Some people forget that such
thing as union card exists after they
themselves do not have to carry one.
Well, we hope the firm does good
business just as long as the public and
the unions are treated squarely, and
Philips says that win be Just as long

TRADES
COUNCIL

President Stratton called the council
to order at the regular hour with a
large attendance of delegates.
The credentials of R. H. Highburg of
the Cooks and Walters, and George
Sharpless of the Printing Pressmen,
were accepted and delegates obligated
and seated.
The following resolution was adopted
and copies ordered sent to our repre-
sentatives in congress:
"The Everett Trades Council wishes
to extend its protest against the recon-
mendation of President Taft to increase
the postal rates on newspapers and
periodicals. of general circulation to three
or four times the present rate. We do
not believe that is the remedy for 'wip-
ing out the deficit as it is undoubtedly
true that the express companies in some
instances are carrying second class mat
ter at a lower rate than that charged
by the government. As your eonstitu-
ents we ask to use your vote and in
fluence to defeat this measure when the
house committee on postoffices and post
roads recommends its passage"
The resolution adopted by convention
of the Washington State Federation of
Labor and sent out for referendum vote
were taken up and discussed by the
delegates and voted upon separately. All
resolutions carrie dexcept No. Q, which
after much discussion was defeated by
vote of Is to 10.
The amendments to the constitution
of the council were brought up for final
discussion and action, and were carried
by vote of % to 2.
The Printers called the attention of
the delegates TO the following publica-
tions which are still persona non
grata" to organized labor owing to the
refusal of the publishers to recognize
the union in the eight-hour fight of
1906: Red Book, Green Book, Blue
Book, Popular Mechanics and Saturday
Evening Post. Put this list away in
your mind for future reference.

PROSPERITY
ON HORIZON
Coming Season Promises
To Be Busy One For
Union People of Everett

The year 1910 starts off auspiciously
for the unions of Everett and barring
sudden disaster such as collision with
Halley's comet or some equally calami-
tous happening, busy, prosperous sea-
son is ahead. No clouds are in sight
on the industrial horizon and there seems
nothing to prevent the signal "full
speed ahead"
Things look particularly good in the
building line. Every day brings plans
for some new building or some invest
ment by outside capital where the
knockers and kickers might as we'll take
to the tall and uncut because we don't
pay any attention to them nohow-we
just keep right on a-growing. 1t takes
houses to put all these people in that
keep coming and they have got to be
fed and clothed and amused and that
calls for more business structures and
away we go, everybody working.
The unions have more than held their
own during the past year. In no in
stance has wages been lowered ani sew
eral unions will receive an increase this
spring. The carpenters wage scale will
increase from 81 to $3.50 a day, effective
the first day of April. All contractors
in the city have been notified and little
friction is expected.
The Building Laborers will also ad-
vance their scale on April lst, from
$3.50 a day of eight hours to 81, and
here again but little trouble is antici-
pated With the cost of living soaring
higher every day wages must take the
aeroplane route a little if income and
expenditure are to retain their relative
position on the family ledger. Fair
minded people must recognize that fact,
The Cooks and Walters Union has
already put into operation the six Xday-
week and hereafter there will be one
day in each seven that the boys and
girls who keep you well fed and sleek
looking, can call their really truly own.
One day in seven that they can do some
thing more to their liking than take
your order for cham and" and hear
you kick if it happens to be burned a
little. And if you don't believe they
are going to appreciate that day of rest.
go and wait on table or work in the
kitchen of a busy restaurant for seven
days straight and see how you like the
experience.
The Plasterers too are going to put
zone over" on their union brethren
They have something up their sleeve
which will make some of the other crafts
wonder why they didn't think of the
same long ago. What is it? Well we
have no desire to tantalize so We'll tell
it without further circumlocution: A
Saturday half holiday. Pretty good, too,
isn't it? And the boys are not going
to have a bit of trouble putting the in
novation into effect either, and that's
the beauty of it. The first of May it is
due to arrive.
Yes, 1910, you look good TO us. More
wages, better working conditions, plenty
of work,-if you come through with hall
of what you promise, well have no kick
coming.

COLD WAVE HAS PUT
CHECK ON THE FLOOD
Elements Have Put a Check on
the Rise in the Jordan
River.

That the elements are with the city
and the residents along the banks of the
Jordan river, is beyond doubt, The cold
wave which struck the city Monday after
noon put temporary check on the flood
which was threatening the western part
OF the city on account of the rapid rise
Of the Jordan river, With the thaws Of
Saturday and Sunday, the river had swol
len to such an extent that 1t overilowed
Its banks in the northwestern part Of the
city near the copper plant and flooded
a large territory in that locality. 1t also
threatened to flood out the people in
the southwestern part of the city.
Up to noon Monday the river had risen
about three and a half inches In twenty
four hours and was still rising when the
storm reached the city and the cold
spell put check to it. Street Super
visor Raleigh states that there is no
doubt but that the cold weather will pre-
vent the damage. which was imminent
under the warm weather conditions. The
council Monday night appropriated $4,000
to be used in taking care of the high
water and with that amount the street
supervisor Is positive that all danger from
floods can be overcome for the present
al least,
