Iabor's Memorial pay.

The second Sunday in May is labor's
memorial day. Responding to a wide
spread sentiment. the Norfolk conven-
ton of the American Federation Of
Labor in 1907 recommended that as
the date on which throughout the ju-
risdiction of the American labor move
ment men and women might assemble
and give public recognition to the
services for labor performed by de-
parted fellow workers. The observ-
ance of the day promises to become
more general year by year. The off,
cial organs of the international unions
and the labor press as a whole are
making mention of the approach of
the date and suggesting appropriate
ceremonies for the occasion. There's
no. a community in all the land which
has not had noble examples of devo-
tion and self sacrifice among the men,
bers of organized labor who are no
longer among the living. Here's to our
absent comrades!-America Fedora
ZIONIST.

MERCHANTS AND UNIONS.
Why Business Men Should Favor Or.
qanized Labor

Why Business Men Should Favor Or.
ganized Labor.
There Is one reason if no other why
business men. especially merchants.
should favor union labor in prefer
ence to cheap nonunjon labor. and that
reason is hat if labor is poorly paid
the wage Garner will have no money
to spend with the merchant. Every
business man knows, if he will stop
to think. that the retail house depends
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
working people are prosperous the
merchant thrives from his trade, and
when the workingman's wages are cut
down it takes just that much cash
from the till Of the business man and
just that much comfort from the cot
tage freside. Is not that sufficient
reason why the business men in this
country should support and encourage
the great masses 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 every busi-
ness man of any prominence. and
careless or sighting remark made
against organized labor finds it's way
into the meeting place of the toiling
masses as fast as one spoken in it's
favor.
1t has been said that unionism and
anarchy travel hand in hand. but they
are as far removed from each other
today as heaven is from the last rest
ing 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 defense of our flag, and he will do
so again if he is called upon. 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.-A. r. Wyatt in Ameri-
can Federationist.
The wageworker., 1910-05-06
Meaning of Cheap Labor.

Cheap labor means poverty and deg
radiation for the masses Of the people.
1t means low prices for the products
Of the farm and factory. The consum-
ing power Of the people is measured by
their earnings. and cheap labor means
the lessening of their purchases. The
sooner the retail merchant looks at
these facts in the right way the better
off he will be both in the sale Of fac
tory and farm products
The wageworker., 1910-05-06
JUSTICE TO WORKERS.
Growing Demand For an Equitable
Compensation Act.


Compensation acts for workmen
must sooner or later come in all our
states. Under the present system
about one workman in ten who are in
jured has the legal right to a lawsuit,
and if suit is brought his chance of re-
covery is about one in ten. The de-
fenses set up by the employer are. un-
der modern conditions. arbitrary and
unreal. If suit is brought it can be
dragged along for several years, and
the lawyers fees and court expenses
eat up half the damages
Large employers and the liability in
surance companies have all the advan-
tage in the trial Of case because Of
their perfect machinery for getting ev-
idence. their skillful lawyers and their
ability to take all appeals. In New
York state this subject is being ener-
getically pressed at present, the gen.
eral feeling being in favor of an act
providing for compensation equal to Sc
per cent of the wage rate in case of
disability and in case of death for q
sum equal to four years wages.
The present system does not tend to
LAdhC ldc CllpIOy AhICACSICu III PIC
venting accidents or in the proper care
and quick recovery Of the injured any
more than it tends to give real relief
to employees and their families. The
proposed change would produce COM
munity Of interests between the en-
ployer and the employed. 1t would
lead toward better machinery, better
care and far more justice. 1t is recog-
nized. however, on the other side that
the act should be so drawn as to pre-
vent the encouragement of litigation
by attorneys who live by collecting ac-
cident claims. and one method Of ac-
complishing this would be a plan for
the settlement by arbitration of prac-
tically all questions arising under the
compensation act.-Collier's.
The wageworker., 1910-05-06
Give Us Men.

Give us men,
Strong and stalwart ones,
Men whom highest hope inspires.
Men whom purest honor fires.
Men who trample self beneath them,
Men who make their country wreatns
them
AS her noble sons,
Worthy of their sires;
Men who never shame their mothers,
Men who never fail their brothers.
True, however false are others!
Give us men / say again,
Give US men!

Unions Ask For No Special Privilege.

Unions Ask For No Special Privileges.
The trades unions ask for no spe-
cial rights or privileges not accorded
to or enjoyed by any individual citi-
zen. We insist upon freedom Of ac-
ton always within the law and invite
punishment by due legal process Of
law if we transgress. We object to
and emphatically protest against gov
ernment by Injunction, which is an
other name for Industrial slavery and
a hollow mockery on our boasted de-
mocracy. We want and demand free
speech and a free press, both of which
are guaranteed by the constitution. but
denied us by injunction judges in
some cases.-Cigarmakers Journal.

azine has taken an unoccupied
place in the field of original re-
views of opinion, in that it is at all
times an aggressive defender and
exponent of fundamental de-
mocracy and those social and pro-
gressive measures that conserve
the interests of all the people in
stead of abnormally enriching the
favored few. Moreover. it is the
one great magazine of the English
speaking world that gives from
month to month a digest of the
vital news Of such movements as
Direct Legislation, Proportional
Representation. Conservation.
Municipal Advance. Land and Tax

Woman's Progress. To persons
wishing to keep abreast of the pro-
gressive thought in the political

believe in IA government of the
