Rich Mems Sons Leave Winnipeg Schools

N1Cn men SOnS Leave winnipeg SCHOOLS
to Scab On Striking Street Car Men
WINNIPEG, Man., Jan. 2.-When the
Winnipeg Street Railway Company put
800 college students in the places of
the striking motormen and conductors
popular opinion was so aroused in an
tagonism to the company's action that
street cars were wrecked in broad day
light in every part of the city and the
college boy strike breakers chased to
their homes.
The failure of the student strike
breakers, who were mostly members of
Winnipeg's wealthy families to hold
down their jobs, has caused the Winni-
peg Street Railway Company to con-
tract with an agency for professional
strike breakers who are now on their
way to the city. A rush order for uni
forms to clothe the hired thugs was sent
to the Manitoba Clothing Company. But
the clothing company's employees are all
union garment workers, and as soon as
the discovery was made that these uni
forms were to cover the bodies of the
imported strike breakers the work in
the factory stopped.
"We will not make uniforms for
scabs," was the ultimatum of the gar
ment workers, and committee was sent
to the headquarters of the striking street
car men to inform them of the action
taken in their behalf. Back of the gar
ment workers are the tailors, who have
also pledged themselves to make no uni
forms for strike breakers.

ORGANIZATION AND GROWTH.

At the close of the fiscal year there
We're affiliated 1870 international un-
ions, 80 state federations 632 city
central bodies, 431 local trade unions
and ZIG federal labor unions.
"Our state federations and city cen.
tral bodies are continually extending
their sphere of usefulness and becom-
ing of larger advantage to our fellow
workers.
Numerically, the membership of our
affiliated organizations is near the
highest figures in their existence. In
1903 we experienced a panic, during
which, by reason of unemployment, a
decrease in membership occurred.
Within the past year marked in
crease in both membership and organi-
cations is to be noted. In a report
which | had the honor to submit to
former convention discussing the law
of growth of the trade union movement
took occasion to say in part: in
connection with this it may be well to
call attention to the fact that there
is law of growth in the labor move
ment, law that is not generally un-
derstood When there is falling off
in membership, no matter how slight,
our opponents point to it with satisfac
tion as an indication of disintegration
or dissolution of the labor movement.
The unthinking in our own ranks view
it with alarm. The fact of the matter
is that any temporary falling off in
membership is due largely to the fail
ure on the part of those organizations
to adopt the means by which the mem
bers' best interests are safeguarded
After all, better intelligence and
revived spirit of workmen soon dem
onstrate the necessity of organization
to protect their best interests, and they
soon return to their Alma Mater of the
labor movement, the trade union. With
this revived spirit the enthusiasm pene-
trates into the ranks of the unor-
ganized, and these, together with the
trend of events in industry and labor
conditions, have their compelling force
upon the minds of the wage earners,

rich and poor; that make every article

its full share of this immense product,
and to secure at least a fair share was
the reason the American Federation OF
Labor was formed"
Mr.. Louis Phillip, president of the
Central Trades and Labor Council of
st. Louis, welcomed the convention as
did President Edward L. Smythe, of
the local Building Trades Council.
That the cause of labor must eventu-
ally triumph over all opposition and all
obstacles was brought home to the
minds of the delegates by the fact
that the convention was meeting in the
home city of the late Jas. Van Cleave,
and that the great factory with which
he had been identified in life, was now
employing members of organized labor
in every department and had signed an
amicable agreement with the very men
whom Van Cleave bounded to the doors
of the prison,

the ranks of the grand army OF or
ganized labor, to make common cause
Tor the protection and advancement OF
all the wage earners. Let pessmists
and opponents take JUNCTION to their
souls Tor their mastership of the past
The present and the future are for la
bor, which in its organized, federated
movement will stand as protest
against injustice and wrong toward any
ot our fellow men, as the vanguard to
proclaim and achieve the rights to
which the toilers, the masses, are en-
titled
DEPARTMENTS.
The Federation is still working to-
ward the amalgamation Of every branch
OF Il given industry into a department
that shall legislate for and direct the
trade union activity OF that industry
When this ideal is accomplished-as it
surely must ii labor is to stand to-
gether against the onslaughte of or
ganized greed-the weak link in the
trade union chain, j. e., the aiding of
members OF one craft to break the
strike of members OF another through
sacred adherence to conflicting trade
agreements, will be mended. The aim
Of these departments and the goal they
must reach, is the signing Of joint
contracts or the making OF joint oral
agreements, embracing every trade in
Il given industry. When that is
brought about, organized scabbing must
disappear for if one trade cannot reach
satisfactory agreement with the EN-
ployers, all are affected by such non
agreement, and it becomes the bounden
duty of the men in that industry to
work or strike together. When all
trades i'll a given industry work or all
strike, much of the cause of criticism
of craft autonomy will be removed, and
the aim of these departments is to
bring that about. The departments can
make progress, however, only as the
masses of workmen learn the absolute
necessity of standing together and learn
that no craft can stand independent Of
any other.
In the Building Trades Department
there are twenty international unions
The efforts of the department so far
have been largely put forth in settling
jurisdictional disputes with the result
that jurisdictional agreements have
been entered into during the year by
fourteen international unions, that
We're mutually satisfactory, and decis-
ions have been rendered affecting ten
others. In the larger cities particularly
the department has been successful in
adjusting adverse local conditions and
bringing building trades craftsmen to
gether.
The Metal Trades Department num-
bers thirteen national and international
and the railroad depart
ment, ten. The two latter departments
are working toward the same goal,
unity of action. The Union Label De
partment has for its object the crea
tion of a widespread demand for the
union label and union labeled products
and is second in Importance to no other
department. The weapon the union la
bel places in the hands of labor to
compel better working conditions is a
powerful one, and there ought not to
be a union man or woman anywhere
that does not demand and insist on
every occasion that the label appear
on the products they buy.

Accusations.

Three charges of theft were preferred
against Earl Davis. fifteen years old.
who was arrested yesterday by Policeman
Hauschild of the ninth precinct. The po
Icemans suspicious were aroused wher

II will be necessary to bring Ice here
from Maine to prevent shortage later In
the summer. 1t is stated that the ice
plants of the city have daily output
large enough to take care of any ordinary
demand, and in addition have on hand
many thousands of tons that can be
drawn upon to make up any deficiency In
the supply. Five or six cargoes Of Ice
in all about SeoO tons. will be brought
from Maine to Alexandria In the next
three months, but the receipts will not
be nearly so heavy as it was thought
would be necessary because the failure
of the southern fruit and berry crop ma
terially reduced the number of cars re-

The four-mas- schooner Massasoit,
first of the ice fleet from Maine, was I'm

the tug Camilla was dispatched to the
Kettle Bottoms to bring her to Alexan-

SHAD BARRED FROM MARKET.
Closed Season for Herring Also
Has Begun.

Shad and herring, whether caught IN
the Potomac or not, now are barred from
the markets under the District fisheries
law, and any one found with the fish in
his possession is liable to fine and i'm
prisonment. The closed season for shad
in this city extends from June 10 to jan
uary l each year. in order. according to
theory. to give the fish an opportunity
to propagate in the fresh waters OF the
river.
The fishermen say, however, that the
only effect of the law is to prevent the
selling here OF fish caught in northern
waters. for shad in the Potomac after
June 10 are few and far between. Some
few shad have been received by the deal
ers in the past week from the nets in the
mouth of the river. but the fish have
been very scarce this season, except for
a few days when a big supply was re-
ceived from the bay fisheries.
