GOVT ADOPTS
union SCALES
THE MILWAUKEE, SOCIALIST Gov
EMINENT ADOPTS THE UNION
SCALES FOR ALL THE CITY EN-
PLoYEs-KEEPINe FAITH WITH
THE TRADE UNIONS.

The socialist city government of Mil
waukee Is true blue and hewing
to the line in all it's undertakings. 1t
has backed water on nothing since
1t came into power, and every step it
has taken has been one of progress.
At a meeting Of the common council
last month a resolution was adopted
fixing the rates Of wages to be paid
mechanics employed by the city ac-
cording to the wage scale of twenty
six labor unions.
This is but one of many evidences
that the municipal authorities of Mil
waukee are truly and sincerely inter-
ested in the welfare of the toilers in
the community and have the courage
to make their convictions practical in
action. Conditions are different in
most cities governed by either of the
old political parties. In them great
promises are made before the cleo
tions and ignored afterward Or
ganized labor is courted and made
much Of until after the votes are
cast, and then given the coolest
shoulder the successful candidates
can offer it. If the old parties de-
sire to drive the labor vote bodily into
the socialist party they could scarcely
find a more certain way of doing it
than the plans they adopt. The rates
of wages per hour fixed by the Mil
waukee common council are as fol-
lows:
Carpenters, so cents; mdllwrights,
80 cents; cement finishers, As cents;
cement helpers, So cents; cement la
borers, % cents; electrical workers,
40% cents; elevator constructors, so
cents; bridge and structural iron
workers, 56A cents; fathers, so
cents; marble workers, 56A cents;
painters, so cents; engineers of
steam rollers, 56A cents; bricklay-
ers, SIS cents; plumbers, 56A cents;
plumbers helpers, 80 cents; sheet
metal workers, 40 cents; sprinkler fit
ters so cents, steamfitters, so cents;
steRecutters, 80. cents; tile layers, 56h
cents; asbestos workers, So cents;
building laborers, IS cents; pile driv-
ers. 40 cents; machinists, As cents;
plasterers, so cents; blacksmiths, S7h
cents.

Big union ADMITTED

The executive council OF the A. f..
of l., which was in session in Wash
ington, ID. c., last week, issued a char
ter to the Western Federation of Miners
on the following terms:
'"That a charter be issued to the
Western Federation of Miners on the
basis of the jurisdiction Of the United
Mine Workers of Amerca. 1t was
found that there was some difference
between the coal mining and the min
eral mining organizations in respect to
the organization and employment OF
machinists which did not relatively
apply to other trades and therefore 1t
is made a provision of the issue of
this charter that the members Of the
machinists locals now existing in min
ing camps are not to be required to
join the Western Federation Of Miners
In order to follow their trades in the
mining camps"
The executive council stated that in

granting this charter 1t had in mind
the declaration of the Western Fed
GRAFTON of Miners and the United
Mine Workers of America favoring
the formation OF mining department
under the jurisdiction Of the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor, and that the
advantage of such a department would
be great to the workers in the coal
and metalliferous industries.

Is causing considerable discussion among

otheKgA A.. reoIentA and taken properly. Mix
as fpI12ws: Two ounces OF Glycerine
and half an ounce Of Concentrated Pine
compound Put these into half a pint OF
good whiskey. Shake we'll and take one
to two teaspoonfuls after each meal and
at bed time" Smaller doses to children
according to age. This treatment often
knocks the worst cough or cold In a day.
But be sure to get only the genuine

experiment with cheap uncertain mixtures.

BILL HAS BEEN INTRODUCED TO
PREVENT THE SIGNING OF CON-
TRACTS AGAINST THE UNIONS

A bill intended to restrict employers
in their fight on labor unions and to
give the unions more power in their
battles was introduced into the house
at Salem, Ore, by Rep. Ralph Clyde
Of Multnomah a few days ago.
The first section declares that any
person or corporation compelling any
employee to enter into an agreement
not to join labor union as a condition
of employment shall be fined not less
than 5000 nor more than $1,000 or i'm
prisonment in the county Jail from one
to six months.
Boycott Is Protected.
Section 2 protects the boycott and
declares that mo agreement, combina-
ton, or contract by or between two or
more persons to do or procure to be
done, an act in contemplation of fur
therance of any trade dispute between
employers and employees shall be
deemed as criminal, nor shall those
engaged therein be indictable or other
wise punished for the crime of con-
spiracy.
Section makes it unlawful for any
employer to import men for work by
uSlHs IdAse advertising OF nldhliiS IdISe
permission, shall be guilty of felony,
that there is labor trouble of any kind
is held to constitute a false advertise
ment.
Must Not Hire Detectives.
Another section holds that any per-
son or corporation hiring private de-
tectives or others to guard their per-
sons or property with arms, without
the governors permission, shall be
guilty Of a felony, but this section is
declared to apply only to cases where
workmen have been, imported through
the use of false pretenses. 1t is fur
ther provided that any workman who
is imported by aid of false pretenses
shall have right to recover dam
ages.

PREDICTS LABOR TROUBLE.

The Financial World, a Wall
street journal, has issued the pre-
diction that 1911 will be a year Of
grave labor troubles. 1t points out
that corporations have laid off
large numbers Of men, who will
only increase the idle labor mar
ket; that a reduction of wages
will be forced on the corporations
by hard times, and that the trade
unions will make a fruitless fight
to avoid this wage reduction.

ANOTHER LESSON.

While this section of the state has
been somewhat free the last few years
from any disastrous wrecks, yet the
same trouble which causes loss of life
has occurred day after day in various
sections of the country and it is est.
mated that the loss of life caused in
railroad accidents is greater, by far,
than death in any other manner.
Laws have been passed from time to
time making the penalty so great for
causing wreck that it would seem to
lessen the casualties, but instead, the
number of wrecks in the past year
have increased insted of decreased.
Of course most Of them can be trac-
ed to carelessness on the part Of some
one, and just as in the case of the
wreck yesterday, it may not be diff
cult to trace the blame. At that,
however, it does not lessen the burden
of those who have lost loved one as
result Of the accident, for there is
little consolation at such times in
finding the responsible one, as it will
do no more than teach lesson to 9th.
ers who might fall in the same rut.
The wreck Of yesterday will only
serve as lesson to those who would
learn from such disasters. It may les.
sen such occurrences, for the law pre-.
scribed by railroad and by the state
and nation in governing the railroads
should be obeyed to the letter by those
in the railroads employ, to even a
greater extent than any other law on
the books.

ANOTHER ASSET.

Devils Lake has another asset which
should not be overlooked, in its strictly
sanitary meat markets. Probably no
food that we eat requires purity and
is 50 apt to be IMPURE as meat, and tho
fact that this city will never suffer in
this regard should be a source Of
pride to the residents Of Devils Lake.

its recent removal into one Of the
most sanitary market arrangements in
North Dakota has added to the list of
three markets in this city, and the Fox
and Bjorlie &; Nelson markets in com.
parison to those found in other cities,
make three excellent places for selling
meat.

particular. The health inspector in.

the fault is not in the meat service.

TRAVELLING AT DANGEROUS

California should have been 4 warning,

It may be gratifying to the manag.
ers of the railroads to gloat over the
bitter disappointment of fathers and

have little other purpose, since so many

The Fargo Courier News says that
no sane man can be an advocate of
LaFollette for president and L. B. Han
ma for governor, because one is a pro-
gressive and the other stalwart, and
jumps onto the Valley City Times-R Rec.
ord editor because he is doing just that
thing. This is the veriest kind of rot.
What difference does it make if both
men are good men, and in this particu-
lar case they are. We believe that any
man can honestly support LaFollette
for president and also Mr.. Hanna and
still be sane, Notwithstanding the lofty
opinion Of the Courier.News. The trou-
BILE with some of these mushroom
growth reformers is that they will not
give anyone credit but themselves for
being honest. We see no good reason
for the Times.Record editor to bury his
Ratchet in the back of Mr.. Hanna be-
cause Mr.. Hanna is not the choice Of
the Courier-News for governor. Editor
Hyde believes Mr.. Hanna to be a clean,
capable man, so do we, and if he feels
like supporting him for governor and
LaFollette for president he has that
right and we believe it is an honest
conviction. Some of these recent 70.
formers who have been licking the
hand of Mckenzie for 10 these many
years should not be heaving br cks ov.
er the fence at their neighbors.-Coop-
