With total quantity OF agricul-

in 1912, the years gross revenue for
the farmers will be per cent more

cultural papers Total value Of all
crops in the United States viii be
$4,000 100000. or $269.0OooOo more

The reason for this extraordinary
condition is. of course, the high prices
per unit for several of the large ce-
real crops Corn. for example, Will
show a total volume OF 20 per cent
under 1912. but with a value OF AZ per
cent better will produce for the farm

THE wealth the farmers will re-
ceive for their decreased tonnage"
says the report, also has these two
decided advantages: Less labor and
expense will be required for harvest
ing and marketing the crop this year,
at a time when farm help is scarce
and high.
Shortage Saves Railroads.
only the decrease Of about 10000

CINCINNATI BAKERS STRIKE.

The employees OK the Weinberg bak-
ing company, David street, Cincinnati,
are out on strike for two weeks past.
The breach between them and the
bosses came about through the dis
charge OF one OF their number with
out sufficient cause. The workers,
their foreman inclusive, are members
of the local bakers union and there
fore demanded the reinstatement OF
their unjustly dealt with comrade.
Upon the refusal OF the boss the union
men all walked out At the very out
set OF the struggle Judge Max 8. May,
progressive democrat, took at once
sides with the company, Issuing an In
junction restraining the strikers from
picketing. This is likely TO result In
the loss OF the strike, non-union men
being put to work under police pro-
lection.
An incident OF this kind should be
both an example and a warning 10 the
politically Indifferent working men.
Il should show them how little the
prediction promises are kept by the
''progressiyes" after they have safely
landed in office.

General Putnam raised the red
flag on the day after the battle OF
Bunker Hill. At the battle OF Long
Island, August 26. 1916, Captain Rail-,
OF the Hessian regiment, captured
from the Americans a red flag with
the word Liberty inscribed within its
crimson folds. At the battle OF White
Plains, October %. 1776. the Ameri-
cans carried a red flag Of the Bedford
Minute Men, which is now at Bedford
library In Bedford, Mass, and had
upon it an outsretched arm with an
uplifted sword
Count Pulaski's legions carried two
red flags at Savannah, now in the
possession Of the Maryland Historical
society. In honor Of this Polish patriot
our poet. Henry W. Longfellow, wrote
an inspiring poem, OF which the fol-
lowing is a part:
Take thy banner e'er thou shouldest
press the soldiers bier,
And the mufned drum should beat TO
the tread OF mOurnful feet
Then this crimson flag shall be mar

Workers War In Spain

parinp TO celebrate at the end of the
year their achievements In the way OF
securing increased wages and to dem
onstrate that they are stronger than
ever.
Soon after the termination of this
fight the employers began, under the
protection of the government TO lock
out other organizations in the build
ing trades. And SO one after another
the painters, tile layers, glaciers, plas-
terers, floorlayers, iron workers, etc,
were shut out They all faced the at
tack bravely before they were COM
pelled to give way. How CALAMITY
these groups defended themselves the
iron workers give an example. AS
there appeared no possibility of com
ing TO an arrangement they decided
after nineteen weeks fight to emigrate
rather than to submit. And so they
are now leaving the fatherland in
small and large bands, freeing them
selves from the greed of the employ
ers and the terror of the ruling classes.
The best workers, the most qualified
artisans, are emigrating, leaving their
little ones in the guardianship of col
leagues in other trades, to protect
from adversely and an uncertain fu-
ture. So the other trades are stand
ing by to help in these troublous times.
This sacrifice and remuneration has
not moved the employers in the least
on the contrary they are so indignant
that they have at this moment locked
out 10000 workers in all building
trades Again the oppressed and half
starved workers begin heroic fight
against hard-necked employers and a
despotic government, who at every OPP
portunity attack the labour party.
They will have to answer for the con-
sequences. The Spanish working
classes breathe the air of freedom to-
day they demand social equality, and
will, despite all opposition, march for
ward and upward on their way to So
cial justice.

The secretary OF the Spanish Rail
way Employees Union, Comrade Ra-
mon Cordanoillo, writes the following
letter from Madrid The Spanish
working classes have after a long
sumber at last thrown off their leth-
argy. As they show new strength and
new spirit they can now commence
the fight which the reactionary en-
ployers force upon them. The mas
ters, who will not negotiate with the
workers organizations, are trying by
all ways and means, to provoke the
men. It is comprehensive that the
struggle between capital and labor in
such a land as Spain, where the power
of the state and church is very great,
and absolutely at the service of the
employers, is an unequal struggle;
yet the workers accept the challenge
with spirit The government goes so
far in its inconsiderate partisanship
that leaders of the movement, espe-
cially in times of strikes, are simply
arrested in the hope of disorganizing
the workers. But the employers have
experienced how strongly disciplined
and well organized are the workers
when the masters organization of the
building trade locked out all organized
workers. For nine months the 10000
men affected held out in spite of ter
rible privations and when their own
means gave out other trade unions
offered the whole of their funds for
the support of those engaged in the
struggle This bitter fight ended with
the renewal of work on the same con-
ditions as held good before the lock-
out, after the employers officially
promised to raise wages without de-
lay This promise has since been full
filled of course only after energetic
reminders from the trades unions.
Our opponents thought to destroy the
trades unions, but in this they were
disappointed. Also their hope that
the organization would be crippled
for some time did not materialize.
The organized workers are today pre-

BEGGARLY WAGES, BIG
PROFITS.

Washington, d. C.-The United CT
gar Stores company declares i'm
dividends, ranging from 20 per
cent to 200 per cent. In financial cir
cles the report of the United Cigar
Stores company is received with &C.
claim. With these big dividends, how
ever. there is another side to the story
which has been left untold. There
are many thousands of women, chill
dren, and men who make possible
these great profits, and who only are
awarded a beggarly share in the in
come of the trust in the form of wages.
1t is stated upon good authority and
by those who have made investiga-
lions, that the employees of the to-
bacco trust who manufacture the CT
gars disposed OF by the United Cigar
Stores company receive but a pitiful
compensation for their labor. Prac-
tically all the trust factories are oper-
ated by nonunion men, women and
children, and this giant corporation
is grinding out dividends at the ex-
pense Of its helpless employees. There
is one way to aid these helpless en-
ployes-purchase only goods that bear
the union label.
