o-iated and crirl!naliy wasted. The
bill provides an immediate remedy
which will check large amount o..
fraud this year and eventually purge
the rolls Of the unworthy.
The best informed veterans think
that there ought not 70 be more than
1000 soldier pensioners. while th-
pension roll OF 1910 shows 1856.
The United Confederate veterans
think that they had enrolled consid-
erably more than half the survivors
of the Los, Cause in the State. Last
year the State division had on its
rolls a.3a5. The pension roll OF
1856 soldiers is more than double
the number OF comrades IN United
Confederate camps. Nothing can
more clearly demonstrate the utter
absu-dity-if not traud-of the pen
sion roll.
The veterans have exposed the
'raud and Zee! that ii is now up 70
the legislature TO remove the stigma
ard save the State money. It IS sin
cerely hoped that it will not adjourn
without taking the desired action.

II every Workingman had the privl-

.rhey struck out the provision in the
new ordinance requiring the payment
of an annual rental to the city. The
rental wasn't much, but taey decided
not to pay any. This idea ought to
appeal to all worHngmen as an easy
solution of the problem of the cost OF
living.
The new Auditorium ordinance was
introduced by Councilman Thompson
to take the place Of the one objected
to by Mayor Schmidt. Some of the
most naring faults were frosted over.
but they are still there. The provision
for rental was put in at $4,000 year
Now the land is conservatively esti-
mated to be worth 100000, and six
per cent interest on this sum would be
SO, DOC per year. Real estate owners
try to gel more than six per cert, bit
call the city an easy landlord, and it
would still want $4,000 per year for
the ground. Well. the ordinance cut
that down to two-thirdsg and still this
was wiped out.

What the Union
Label Means

1. Mutual aid, cooperation,
brotherhood. It represents the
united effort Of workingmen by
the millions IN every civilized land
to help each other and help the
whole working class to secure bet
ter conditions of labor and life.
2. It means less slavery. Every
where the unions strive for a
day, whereas, except where the
union influence has been directly
manifest, people have to work TIN,
twelve and fourteen hours a day
even children in the southern cot
ton mills working twelve hours.
3. It means less poverty. Every
where unions strive to obtain high
er wages for working people, and
shorter workday, and have obtain
ed in civilized lands, for all union
men, an eight, nine or ten-hour
wages in those sections where un-
ion labor is strong are invariably
higher than where the unions AZ.
weak. This gives the working peo-
|ple better chance to live like hui

union rules prevail, the shops and
factories are kept much cleaner,
better ventilated and more sani-
tary ID every respect. This is one
of the principle demands Of union
