TRANSFERS BURY
DEAD BROTHER

Yesterday afternoon at 2 o'clock a
funeral procession wended its way from
Jerread's chapel on Broadway to the Ev-
ergrcen cemetery, where the remains of
E. c. Hanson were tenderly laid away
1t is no uncommon thing, this solemn
procession to the silent hillside city
Scarcely Il day passes that some funeral
procession does not pass over Everett s
streets. But this particular funeral bears
a lesson that we want to bring home. 1t
illustrates a phase of unionsm to which
the public pays scant heed.
Mr.. Hanson was member of the
teamsters' union. 1t is not our province
to tell of the struggles and privations
he endured while trying to earn a com
petence for himself and dependents. Per
haps it was his fault-perhaps it was
the fault of circumstances over which he
had no control-but he wasn't able to
make both ends meet. He passed over
and left his dependents in Strengthened
circumstances. No one was interested
no one cared how or where he was laid
away Did we say no one caredY His
union did, though it owed him nothing
as far as cold dollars went.
His union stepped into the breach and
with the aid of Johnny Jerread gave him
decent burial and paid all the tribute
and respect of which they were capable
The remains of Brother Hanson lie to-
day in Evergreen cemetery, laid to rest
by the teamsters' union.
Here's the lesson: Trade unionism
isn't all strikes and boycotts and indus
trial turmoil. There is a deeper, tend
erer side: a spirit of brotherly love and
affection. "The strong shall help the
weak"
just remember this incident when you
hear trade unions maligned because they
'upset business in the eternal struggle
for industrial freedom.

RESOLUTION.

TO the Editors of the Everett Labor
Journal and the Seattle Union Record
and the Union Men of the State OF
Washington:
In view of the fact that the Aberdeen
and Hoquiam Building Trades Council
and the carpenters union of Aberdeen
have seen fit to take exception to Presi-
dent Cases article in regard to the stu
alton on Grays Harbor in your papers
we, the Grays Harbor Trades and Labor
Council, wish to endorse President Cases
statement of the case and further state
that the article by Mr.. Case is true
and conservative view of the troubles
which have arisen in the near past on
Grays Harbor; therefore, be it
Resolved, That we condemn the action
taken by the Aberdeen and Hoquiam
Building Trades Council for the reason
that the matter is entirely outside their
province and, as we consider it, ma
licious and unwarranted attack in an
effort to place our worthy president
Mr.. Case, in false and incriminating
light; and be it further
Resolved, That the Grays Harbor
Trades and Labor Council extend to Mr..
Case, president of the State Federation
of Labor, a vote of thanks for his truth
full and lucid statement of the condi-
tion of affairs on Grays Harbor; and be
it further
Resolved, That we make known the
fact that the letter endorsed by the
Building Trades Council is not the senti-
ment of the majority of the unions com
posoing the council, as it was adopted
by the delegates without the knowledge
of the unions they represented; and be it
further
Resolved, That we hereby express our
confidence in the ability and fairness of
our worthy president and pledge to him
our hearty support in all his efforts to
make our organization stronger and
more efficient, and to improve the con
ditions of all workingmen of the state.

MARYSYILLE
DEFEATED
HEALY'S SMOKEsTACKERS
TRIM PADDY WEIGH TO
THE GREAT DISGUST OF
THE RIVER BERG BUGS
LEAGUE GAME HERE NEXT
SUNDAY.

Jack Healy conN er-cs in owed and sub
dued tones when the subject of the
Marysville ball team is mentioned in
his presence. "Therc'7 Il reason You
see the fans in the little river berg have
been pestering Jack for some time to
give them a crack at the Smokestackers
but Jack insisted that they go and get
reputation or words to that effect.
Last Sunday being an open date owing
to the plots and conterplots Of the n. w.
league magnates, Healy and crew
journeyed to Marysyille to annex q little
side money and, quite incidentally OF
course, show the Marysville team what
real ball club looked like. Jack and
his insurrectos got away with the game
all right but only after Il hair lifting
ten inning contest that caused the
Smokestackers to pray for divine guild
ance in seventeen different languages.
You might just as well think that
Teddy Roosevelt don't know how to play
politics as to think that AIarysville
bunch don't know how to play ball They
play some brand and it took the entire
Everett wrecking crew working over
time to administer the sleeping potion
to the Marysville crowd. Paddy Welch
has been going great guns this season
and Marysyille bugs have been robbing
the kids savings banks to back their
idol
Singleton had Paddy's number, how
ever in the prettiest pitching duel seen
in MarysviIle this year Two hits of
the scratchy variety were all Mary sville
could gather from his delivery while
Welch was touched up for seven. Air
tight fielding on both sides kept all
hands away from the plate until the
tenth spasm when the Smokestackers
showed over the only run of the day.
That one run looked as big to Healy as
Taft looked to the insmgcnt republicans
before Teddy slammed his lid into the
ring.
Marysyille bugs l'bugs" is the right
word believe they can make the score
look differently if they can get a return
engagement and Healy may give them a
matinee performance some of these fine
summer days. But not until his heart
action gets back to normal after the
shock Of last Sabbath afternoon

barns. and those who follow the fair
races closely are making 1t a point to
