HARD TIME
BALL MONDAY
LABEL LEAGUE PROMISES A
NOVEL AFFAIR FOR NEXT
MONDAY EVENING AT THE
LABOR TEMPLE - LEAGUE
PRESIDENT AGAIN IN THE
HARNESS..

At the last regular meeting of the
Label League arrangements were com
pleted for big benefit dance and card
party to be held in the Labor Temple
next Monday night. 1t is to be an old
fashioned Hard Times dance and woe
betide the individual who appears wear
ing white collar.
Dancing will take place on the lower
floor and the upper will be reserved for
card tables. Admission is to be the
same as at the last affair viz, all
ladies 10 cents, poor married men 20
cents, single gentlemen so cents.
No refreshments will be served this
time but don't let that scare you away
you'll have more time to dance. Mem
bers of the Label League and their spe-
cially invited guests and members of all
unions are invited to attend. The net
proceeds will be devoted to most
worthy cause and the building should
be crowded.
During the evenings session Mrs.
Zeigler quietly entered the hall Mrs.
Zegler has been quite i'll and this was
her first appearance at league meetings
for several weeks. When she entered
the room she was given a spontaneous
ovation from the members present,
which must have warmed her heart.
She has been much in mind during her
enforced absence and everyone was gen
timely glad to see her again. She re-
sponded to the welcome in a brief speech
full of feeling and expressed the hope
that in the future nothing might in
tervene to keep her from active league
work.

TEAM WINS
AND LOSES
EVERETT DEFEATS SEATTLE
LEAGUE TEAM IN BRIL-
LIANTLY PLAYED GAME
DROPS SUNDAY CONTEST
PLAYS IN SEATTLE NEXT
SUNDAY,
by A. Bug.)


1t was fancy brand of baseball served
up piping hot to the hungry fans last
Saturday afternoon when Everett took
Dugdale's colts into camp by a 6 to
score. Dug used three pitchers in a vain
attempt to stem the tide of victory
which was running strong for the semi
pros. Stevens, the pride of Snohomish
got the hook in the third inning, which
was rude of his former Snohomish team
mates, five of whom were on the Ev-
erett team. Moe lasted out the inning
and was then replaced by Barrenkamp
who finished out the game.
Everett was lucky but luck wasn't all
of it. The fielding was sensational.
When you consider that Klein was
touched up for eleven hits and walked
five men and remember that INNING
when with the bases full and none down
Seattle was retired without run, you
know there was some fielding. Schroed
ers' perfect throw to the plate from deep
field which nipped a runner at the plate
and Wilson's running catch of long
fly which by every right should have
been a three bagger, were splendid pieces
of work. Roberts was the matinee idol
with his cracking drive to center, scor-
ing two runs and putting us on even
terms with the visitors. Three runs in
the fifth put the game on ice though
one was added in the eighth for good
measure.
Sunday afternoon the bugs crowded
the park to see the team repeat but it
wasn't written that way in the stars.
Numberless blue envelopes stared Dugs
recruits in the face if they went back
to Seattle with another trouncing and
the thought of them acted like a spur
on a iaded horse. Luck broke Seattle's
way this time, ably assisted by GER
tain young southpaw, Mr.. Thompson.
This port side finger had our left
handed batters punching holes in the
ether or else feebly poking out drives to
the Seattle fielders, who were covering
ground like a circus tent. Singleton
pitched good ball for Everett, striking
our nine men. Vests hit and Barren
kamp's homerun clout with one on told
the story but to make it strong De
Voght scored two in the ninth with a
three-base screamer to left. Good
night!
Everett is in need of a second pitcher
to help Singleton out. The opening of
the league season turns several good
young pitchers loose and Everett might
grab one if we could land situation
at the same time. No ballplayer can
live on the pay from one or two games
week and it's up to Everett fans.
Sunday we hook up with Dug's regu-
lar team in Seattle and we want that
game to stick under the noses of these
amateur teams around the state that
have had our goat for several seasons
Healy's men will fight hard and the
presence of hundred or so Everett fans
ought to help some.

MACHINISTS WIN VICTORY.

Seattle machinists won signal We
tory recently when the Nelson Grease
Cup concern signed an agreement with
the union. This outfit attempted to
buck organized labor but was quickly
brought into line through the united eff
forts of Seattle unions. The following
from the Seattle Union Record tells the
story:
"About last October a Mr.. J. NJ Frye,
of Los Angeles, California, came to Sc
attic as an agent for the Nelson Patent
Compression Grease Cup. He got
large order with one of the local brew
cries to place them upon their wagons.
He had them cast in foundry whose
owner is a member of the Metal Trades
association (which organization is wag-
inc war against our members who have
been trying to get the eight hour day
here for the past twenty-five months.
He had them machined at one of our
scab nine hour shops, whose owner also
is a member of the Metal Trades asso-
citation.
eve had a committee from the strike
executive board wait upon Mr.. Frye,
who promised to have his work done
square. After month and a half of
dickering and beating around the bush,
upon Mr.. Frye's part, the Grease Cup
was finally placed upon the unfair list
bv the Central Labor Council; mean
while the work on the brewery wagons
had been stopped.
"Circular letters were sent to the diff
ferent central councils, locals and wagon
owners, asking their cooperation in
having this work Strengthened up. Mr..
Frye went about trying to get orders,
and would put them on free in order
to demonstrate their good qualities. We
had one of our pickets follow him, and
wherever he placed an order the picket
would 90 in and see that the job was
stopped. In this manner Mr.. Frye was
handicapped to a considerable extent.
Mr.. Frye then went to see a lawyer, so
it was reported. about the boycott that
was being waged against him, but moth
ing could be done, as we kept well within
the law.
''Finally seeing that he couldn't do
business in Seattle without organized
labor, he sold the state rights at fig
ure far below the one he asked at the
time our committee first met him. The
rights were bought by John Anderson 4
Co.. who have entered into an agree
ment with Hope Lodge No. 79t |. A. Of
J Nj. The Grease Cups were taken from
the central councils unfair list on Marcl
20. and are now being made by th'

Not at all. He will do as much

But in this country the thing is

over a car, with their chauffeur

When the party returned from
their drive the man from the city
saw the other man hand the
chauffeur a SIS bill. Later he said
to his wife: 81 can't afford to
give that chauffeur S.. I can't
give less than H. did without
looking cheap. It was just as
much my place to tip the man as
it was his, if any tipping was to
be done, and I suppose the chauf-
