G0MPERS SOUNDS WARNING.
No Industrial Peace Until Labor Gets
Its Just Demands.

No Industrial Peace Until Labor Gets
Its Just Demands.
In recent address before the Amer
lean Academy of Political and Social
Science at Philadelphia Samuel Com
pers replied to critics of organized la
Dor. The subject under discussion
was Competition and Combinations
In Commerce and Industry" Mr..
Gompers said in part;
The United States Steel corporation
seems practically immune from indus
trial strikes. This. however. is the
same kind of peace that the car of
Russia proclaimed when be said,
peace reigns in Warsaw"
You are lulling yourselves into a
fanced security. Some day you will
wake up and find that it has been Ell
Their a dream or a nightmare. You
have crushed out the spirit of labor
unions in some Of your plants, The
American workers are there no longer
to any appreciable extent. You think
they are docile. So they are; and you
think that you are safe. So did the
proprietors of the textile mills at Law
renee. Mass, year ago. So do many
other employers.
All these schemes put into opera
ton for the betterment of conditions
of men are simply to lull them, to tie
them to the interests that employ
them and to take away every oppor-
tunity of protest. There are less skill
ed workmen today because their posi-
tons are being taken by new mechan-
zeal inventions.
The American labor movement does
not stand for lawlessness or violence.
None is injured more by violence than
the cause of men and women of labor.
If perchance there should be disorder
in scattered sections of this country
the odium?
My idea is the reduction of hours of
labor, but / would increase the output.
We want a shorter workday so that
every man can cultivate the best that
is in him. Give to him, his home and
little ones time that should go to make
full rounded American citizen. He
should then acquaint himself with civ
ic and political duties and exercise
those duties.
The seven day labor is the result of
our industrial commissions. l have be-
lieved honest industry should not be
hampered by meddling legislation, par
ticularly when unnecessary.

UNION WISDOM.

If there is to be unity of labor,
If the full strength Of labor is to
be realized. and the workers ale
to receive the greatest benefits
through cooperative effort and
concerted action. there must he
no warning factions.
The union label represents
united labor and is effective to
the extent that labor is united
aud does its duty. If there were
no warning factions the union
label would be much more pow
erful than it is today. 1t has
done much for the cause of Ia
Dor, but stands ready to do
thrice or ten times more when
ever the workers get ready TO
drop their petty internal strife
ana get together once and for
all in unity.
Remember your power as pur-
chasers is your strongest weap-
on. Patronize all union labels.

John C. Lawrence, progressive repub-
lican candidate for governor was in the
city Monday and Tuesday on private
business, and took the occasion to re-
new old acquaintance and form new
ones. Monday evening he spoke infor-
mally in the Commercial club rooms to
those interested in his candidacy, and
outlined his campaign policy. Retrencl-
ment along all lines of state government
is his financial policy. He believes that
two or three state commissions could
well do the work that now requires
twenty or thirty.

In the death of John McRae, Everett
has lost one of her foremost citizens. In
the early days he made many political
enemies. He never forgot a friend nor
forgave an enemy in political circles.
Looking bckward over the years one
finds that there never was a really big
project in behalf of the city's better
ment that did not have John McRae's
endorsement and hearty support. His
death was the city's loss.

What is declared to be the oldest automobile in active service was turn ed out of the factory Dec 4, 1891, and it's owner will decorate the machine to- Trlorrow with two-cyIinder motor, and is now the property of Cure GavofS or Bonneville, in the Somme district of France The village priest uses the car daily in his visits among his nock, and is the proud owner of a gold med al emb1ematfc of ownership. of the most ancient car in service These facts were developed by a cornpeti- ton organized by a French technical journaI,s and the date of construction has been fully verified. The second oldest car in active service is a three Horsepower machine turned out Nov 90, 1898 Third and fourth on the list are machines completed in October, 1894, and August. 1895. The next three ears in the list were built in 1897. An English car built in the same year is now carrying physician on his daily rounds. Nineteen cars in all com peted for the old age medal, the youngest of the group having been turned out of the factory in 1900.
 The oldest French car was a year old before any really practical ma Iantic- Motor cars were made and sold in Europe several years before the seIf-proPelled vehicles were recog- nized on this side of the Atlantic as being anything more than amusing playthings. Early in the '90s Charles D Duryea, of Reading, Pa-, and Ind, began experiments that resulted eventually in automobiles bearing some resem blance to the vehicles in general use to-day If the American inventors were slow in beginning, how ever. they made great progress when once started. The first American built gasoline motor car was offered for sale in 1S96 Before that several steam srunabouts had been turned out and gave fair service although they have long since been relegated to the scrap heap The principal drawback to <s gasoline vehicle was overcome by aA American inventor, Alexander W-fnton, of Cleveland, and resulted in the f7rst machine to be produced com Inercfaily and extensively sold in Ann erica The first four machines of this type were sold in March, 1898, and i4 ia alleged that these sales were the first recorded to the credit of an Am arican automobile manufacturer The

FIRST THINGS

The first reference to a combination of labor societies in America is con- tained in the New York newspapers issued seventy-nine years ago today, in which it is stated that 'tthe General Trades Unions of the City of New York had held an organization meet ing and listened to addresses. Sepa- rate trades-unions came into existence early in the nineteenth century.
