MACH|N|STS' UNION
ENJOYS GREAT YEAR
Membership Increased; $4,000
Members Get Wage Increase
Aggregating 100000 Yearly.

The International Association of
Machinists energies from the year
just past with splendid record. It
enjoyed an increase in membership
for the year of $500. Increases in
wages. aggregating $1,25O,OOO, were
raised which benefits $4,000 machin-
lists.
With the completion Of the years
work William H. Johnston, the new
international president of the ma
chinists. feels gratified with the re-
suits achieved. He says that a most
conservative calculation discloses the
cheering knowledge that during the
last IL months over $4,000 machinists
have been the direct beneficiaries of
the splendid activities conducted by
the members of the union. Enclos-
ing his summary Of the years work,
Mr.. Johnston says:
I'm addition to the many golden
hours saved from exacting, arduous
toll, over $1,25O,O00 have been added
to the income Of our members.
1T must be remembered that most
of these improved conditions have
been derived without strikes, with
their attendant cost, strain and sacri-
flee. 1t is largely the result of great
er intelligence and experience gained
through the practical school of SEN
sible progressive trade unionism.
1--WE have closed up our own ranks;
we have reduced personal and fac
tlonal differences to: a minimum; we
nave, wherever possible, taken ad-
vantage of our opportunities; we have
not submitted to a reduction of wages
in any part of the country; we have
maintained the ethics and best prin-
ciples of our trade; we have been
firm without being sensational; we
have, by our sympathy and prac-
tlcal help, asst listed our apprentices
and helpers to obtain better condi-
tons; We have co-operated and fed
Grated with other trades and helped
them in critical periods to improve
their wages and conditions; in many
instances we have had to set the
pace and bear: the expenses as we'll as
the responsibilities of the struggles,
LAS result of our varied expert
ences We will be better equipped to
meet the problems of the future. The
victories. we have achieved will
strengthen our courage, increase our
resourcefulness and stimulate our
faith in the virtue of united action.
II feel profoundly grateful for the
many opportunities that have been
afforded me to help in the great
work We have together been engaged
in. The future is ours. Faith in
our union and persistent effort will
surmount all difficulties

COMMERCIAL CLUB
AGAIN GETS IN BAD
Public Affairs Committee De-
nounces Labor Bill Without
Getting Labor's Side.

The Commercial club is again in
bad with many of Duluth's working
men. It has been repeatedly charged
that this institution is controlled by
certain interests who use it to pro-
pense Of others.
At a meeting of the public affairs
committee held Saturday evening a
resolution was adopted denouncing
the Hillman bill now before the leg
islature, which, if passed, would abol-
the state of Minnesota.
Without discussing the merits Of
the bill-for it is known that there
are many good men in the employ
ment business in Duluth-a reason
able number of workingmen COM
planned that these institutions have
been used to exploit them.
The charges made by these work.
men are of such serious character
that they are at least entitled to the
consideration of such an institution as
the Commercial club Of Duluth, which
pretends to represent all of the inter-
ests of the city.
1t would seem that in justice to
the workingmen who complain against
the private employment system the
members of the Commercial club
would get both sides of the question
before attempting to pass judgment
upon the Hi1lman bill.
The Commercial club made just
such mistake when it declared for
the "open shop" in 1907 on the word
of Walter Drew, the paid agent Of
the National Erectors' association, and
without giving the ,workingmen Of
this city an opportunity to be heard
in their own defense. The action Of
the club at that time cost it thou
sands of friends in this city.
The present opposition to the Com
mercial club dates from the passage
Of the open shop resolution in 1907.
Now it has made just such another
mistake, and has "butted in" to a
matter that is of no concern to the
club or it's members.
Charges were made against the
state free employment bureau and
they were accepted as gospel truth
without investigation. There are two
sides to this question and the public
affairs committee of the Commercial
club will find it out if they take the
time to study It.

DR.. PHE[AN TALKS ON
DUE PROCESS OF LAW
University Professor Discusses the
Time Worn Attitude of Courts
on Property Rights.

Frequently in. our courts due pro-
cess of law is invoked either to
legitimately protect or to serve as a
constitutional bar to desirable reform
legislation.
What does this much invoked
phrase mean? Dr. Raymond Phelan
In this weeks University Extension
lecture in Duluth, quoting from an
Alabama case, said, due process Of
law implies the right Of the person
affected thereby to be present before
the tribunal that pronounces judg-
ment upon the questions of life, lib
erty or property in it's most compre-
hensive sense, to be heard by testi-
mony, or otherwise, and to have the
right Of controverting by proof every
material fact that bears upon the
question of right in the matter in
volved. If any question Of fact or
of liability be conclusively presumed
against him, this is not due to process
Of law
Liberty" continued DR.. Phelan, sis
the right of one to use his faculties
In all lawful ways, to live and work
where he will, to earn his livlihood
in any lawful calling, and to pursue
any lawful trade or avocation.
THE right Of property is die right
to acquire, possess, and enjoy prop
erty in any way consistent with the
equal right, of course, and the just
exactions and demands of the state"
In discussing workers. compensa-
ton for industrial accidents, DR..
Phelan said that the Washington SUI
preme court had ruled that 1.-THE leg
islature can regulate, control, and
even prohibit any. industry when it
becomes menace to it's workers, to
the people surrounding it, or to any
considerable number of people at
large"
The speaker spoke very highly Of
II. V. Mercer and the Minnesota Bar
association for their work in promot-
ing compensation in this state.

STATE INSURANCE BILL
PASSES OREGON HOUSE

SALEM, Ore, March 6.-The work.
mems compensation bill, modelled att
er the Washington workmens COM
pensation act, has passed the house
of representatives by vote of 81
to 2.
The friends of Industrial insurance
in Oregon have been diligently at
work for the enactment of the law,
and recently representative of the
Washington Industrial Insurance COM
mission addressed a joint meeting of
the two houses of the state legisla-
ture upon this subject. y
Casualty companies are resorting
to every conceivable method to defeat
this bill in the senate, but it is con-
fidently expected that the senate will
concur in the action Of the house.
