i. Trades Unions and The Socialist PARTY !.
lBy Robert Hunterl

islatures came together to discuss
programs and methods. With hardly
a single exception, the successful So
cialists were also Trade Unionfsts,
and all agreed that in their various
localities the Trade Unions and the
Socialist Party worked together.
OF course IN these different cities
the methods vary by which these two
movements of the working class co
operate. IN some cases the Unions
have endorsed the Socialist Party. In
other cases the chief officials Of the
Union Movement are the most active
Socialists. and are quite naturally sup
ported BY the mass Of Union men. In
still other cases Union men have sup
ported the Socialist Party solely be-
cause they were disguised with the
corruption and general rottenness Of
the two old Parties.

x The bridgeport Plan.

Los Angeles and Milwaukee are two

Happening in the Labor Movement OF
this country.
In hundreds Of industrial cities the
Unions have rendered support to the
Socialist Party. In Schenectady,
Butte, Berkely, Flint New Castle and
in score or more other cities. the
Socialists have won by the almost
unanimous support of the working
class. In great cities like ST Louis,
Columbus, Bridgeport, and Mnneapo-
lis, the Socialists have lost by only
a small margin.
In August of last year the Socialists
held in Milwaukee conference OF

Socialists. Indeed It is educational
work Of the highest character, because
| il win bring the entire body Of work
lers to the practically unanimous view
that they must build up working
class political party to capture cities.
towns and states, and to administer
all government in the interest Of the
actual producers Of wealth.
This type of work is being done
elsewhere. write of It as happening
in Bridgeport only because know
better what is being done there than
elsewhere. And all this legislative
work by Socialists and Trade Union
lists can have only one result Both
groups Of workers learn in the most
positive manner the Identity of their
aims and the identity Of their inter
|ests. II is impossible for men to fight
day after day, side by side, without
seeing the necessity for harmony,
comradeship andsmutuaI assistance.
Now and then in the papers we read
that the Socialists have captured this
or that Union. The chief officials of
the Tailors, the Bakers, the Brewers,
the Machinists, the Miners and sew
eral other international Unions are
today Socialists. But he who believes
THAT the Socialists have captured an
organization when they have captured
Its officers, know, fear, little OF or
Iganization. The fact that Socialists
have captured such offices means of
course that among the rank and file
of Union men the prejudice against
Socialism is disappearing. If, how
ever, any one believes that the Off
| cial of Labor organization can use
his position to tie his organization to
any Party, he is profoundly mistaken.
Indeed, if the articles of this series
convey any message from Socialist
Labor leaders, it is this: That parti-
san politics must never be allowed to
divide the Union Movement.
McLevy is. it seems to me, a strik-
| ing figure among those who have a
position of leadership in both move
ments of the working class. He is,
| to be sure, only minor figure as yet
The greater part of his life is spent
on slate roof, but he is a type of
labor leader that we shall see more
of in the near future, and / have
dwelt at such length on his tactics
because they seem to me not only an
excellent example Of what has built
up. the great and powerful European
movements. but also because they
seem invulnerabie.
The swinging of organizations for
political ends may be quite properly
| the work Of grafters; it may also be
what the Capitalist masters expect II
| do with the organizations of their
slaves. But the study of Socialism
should surely lead us to nobler means
than those pursued by the enemies OF
tthe working class. AS Engels has said:
I'sThe American workmen will come,

Roof Of crxstaIlzed salt


The great salt lake at Obdorsk is
nine miles wide and seventeen miles
long. yet except in few places it is
solidly rooted over with a deposit OF
salt, which is becoming thicker and
thicker each year. says the Scientific
American. About the middle OF tho
last century salt crystals first began
to gather upon the surface OF the wa
ter. Year by year, owing to the evap-
grafton Of the water, the crystals be-
came more numerous, and then caked
together until this great roof was
formed. In 1878 the water beneath
this salt crystal roof found an under
ground outlet into the Obi river. This
lowered the lakes surface about
three feet. leaving that distance ba-
tween the water and the roof, and
each year this distance has been d.
minished by the constant FGdition OF
salt crystals to the roof Many
springs surround this lake Their
water flows over the roof and evapo.
rates there. and thus continually adds
TO its thickness. After many years
the springs will probably become
choked with their own deposits, and
then the whole Will become covered
with earth, so that great salt mine
will be formed-a treasure for the ST.
berians hundreds Of years TO come.
