LABOR PARTY
Labors Conference in England
Shows Increased Strength.

The Labor Party Conference held last
Wednesday in London, was representa-
tive of 1,S95,311 members, comprised in
135 trade unions Q,S5S,001 members),
two Socialist societies (31,237), the
Woman's Labor League $4,000, and
the Tunbridge Wells Cooperative So
ciety G,073). Trade councils to the
number of SO and local labor parties
were also represented. There were
sos delegates. These figures speak vol
umes of the growth of the Labor Party
In the year of its formation. 1901, the
total membership was S73,931; next
year it increased by about 100000, then
in the third year there was an increase
of 100000 and the million was touched
in 1907. Last year the figures were L.
$4,000. The number of trade unions
represented has decreased during the
year from 141 to 1876, due with one ex-
ception to amalgamation. Individual So
cieties show astonishing increases. The
Workers union has increased from g.
900 to $4,000; Dock, Wharf, Riverside
and General Workers union from 10000
to $4,000; Dock Laborers from 10000
to 10000; Gas Workers from $1,000 to
$4,000; the National Amalgamated
Union of Laborers from 21,OOO to $4,000,
and the Shop Assistants from $4,000 to
$4,000. In one of the most important
questions with which the conference
dealt it was decided to withdraw the
whips" from such members who in
parliament would not conform to the
party discipline. There are forty labor

an investigation of the facts would 1
feel. justify the suspicion that such is
the case.
Below is the scale OF wages estab-
lished by the unions in the printing and
bookbnding business. each affiliated
with a national body whose jurisdiction
covers the whole field, and who could,
if actuated by sense of justice and fair
play, establish a uniformity in the wage
scale between competitive points that
would put all on an equal footing:

ers, rulers and printers in Colorado

er neighboring competitive points are

The great benefit of the trade union
to the fair employer of labor is that the
INSCRIPTIONS, the greedy and crashing
employer can have no advantage over
him in the matter of wages when the
union enforces the wage scale equally
tas theoretically it is supposed to do).
but what shall be said of the union that
will, in spite of protests submitted, CON
tinue an unjust discriminative practice.
thus abrogating one of the chief reasons
for its existence?
Manifestly, the duty of any union
whose members are engaged in an in
dustry where this reprehensible policy
is practiced, is at once to take steps to
equalize the wage conditions in neigh
boring cities by raising the scale in
those cities paying the lowest to that of
the city paying the highest and 1t seems
to me that our much vaunted witty boost

SPECIAL TO EVERY LOCAL UNION.

What is happening among your mem
bers? Don't you think it would look
good in print? II you do, make note
of it, write the story, and send 1t in in
time for each weeks paper. We want to
fill The Bulletin full of items of local in
terest. and in order to do this we need
the assistance of every member of or
ganized labor in the city OF Denver. It's
awfully easy to do this, and just to give
you an idea of the kind of dope" that
makes an interesting paper, here's list:
Has any member of your organization
become the proud parent of bouncing
baby girl or boy during the last week?
If SO. we want to know all about 1t;
how much the youngster weighed, and
all that.
Then again, did any one of you enter
upon the sea of matrimony? If. SO. both
of their names. where they lived, what
'sky pilot" did the job. In fact. all about
it.
Does your local have any entertain
ments. parties or anything on that or
der? If 1t does. it is Of great interest to
every laboring man in Denver. Send the
story in.
If new member comes in, let's give
him a boost If an old member goes
away, let's send a good word along with
him to his new home.
Now, it would be utterly Impossible
for us to sit in the office and learn these
things, but with little thought and ef-
fort on your part, YOU can assist in max
ing paner which every laborins man In
Denver will be proud of. You women
workers, take little of this on your
selves Let's boost the laboring man
and woman If we don't, no one else
will.
