NEEDED ON. TRAINS
Railroad Men Of Minnesota Are
Passing Their Full Crew.
Bill Before Legislature. =.

The railroad labor organizations Of
Minnesota are pressing for passage
before the legislature their 'Full
Crew. BILL" This IL the third time
the bill has been before the legis-
lature. At the last two sessions OPP
position against it by the railroad
companies was sufficiently strong to
defeat It. At this session it il OK
pected the bill will become law, al
though It IL meeting its usual opposi-
ton from the railroad lobby.
The bill is for an act to protect the
lives and property of the travelling
public, and the employees of railroads
In the state by providing for full
crews on trains. It Is made unlawful
under the provisions of the bill for
any railroad to run over its road, out
side Of the yard limits, any passen-
ger train consisting Of six or more
cars with less than a full crew Of
six men, which shall consist of one
engineer, one fireman, one conductor,
one train auditor, one brakeman and
one 1agman. =:
The tlagman shall have at least one
years experience in train service, and
it is required that he shall pass sat-
isfactory examination on such train
rules as may be prescribed by the
railroad. company. This feature of
the bill is for the sole protection of
the travelling public.
Must Have Flagman.
Another provision of the bill re-
quires that every freight train with
more than so cars, exclusive Of the
engine and caboose, shall carry a full
train crew consisting. of engineer,
fireman. conductor, two brakemen
and dagman. The f1agman shall, as
In the case of a passenger train, pass
satisfactory examination on train
rules. 1t is also required that en-
gines travelling light over a road shall
carry an engineer, fireman and con-
ductor.
Freight trains with less than so
cars are. required to carry an engi-
neer, fireman, conductor, brakeman
and f1agman. Mixed trains shall
carry full crew of six men.
The Full Crew Bill'' is supported
by the Brotherhood Of Railroad Train
men. 1t was drawn with the sanction
of the grand officers of the B. Of r.
T., and it has become law in several
of the states. 1t. is urged that many
of the wrecks occurring on American
railroads are due. to- the fact that
long trains are not sufficiently manned
to afford a proper; projection to the
travelling public and to railroad en-
ployes. ~
Protection for Rear-End.
A large number of collisions are at
accident on a long train, it usually
accidenton a long train, it usually
requires the service Of one conductor
and two brakemen to make the re-
pair. The firema n ;22can usually run
ahead and flag against head-end COL
lisions, but the rear of the train is
frequently left EXPOSED. If this bill
becomes law, the extra member of
the crew will be used exclusively to
flag from the rear end:
The railroad employees will appreci-
ate the support Of the general pub
lie to this bill.

GREAT CAMPAIGN Of
ACTIVITY TO Open
Unorganized Laborers in all Parts
of Country Begin To Realize
They Should Join Unions.

In Duluth. as in various other Sec
tlons of the, country, labor forward
movements are adding impetus to
the general campaign and interna-
tional and national unions are a.
sidously engaged in promoting Or
ganization work. In fact, there Is
more activity being displayed now,
locally and elsewhere, than in many
years.
In view of these facts, It IL incum-
bent upon the organized labor forces
to take advantage Of the present
state of affairs. this revived interest,
and bend every energy to Increasing
the membership Of. the organized
labor movement.
With the assistance necessary to
meet the present opportunity, the
year 1913 will be recorded as one of
marvellous growth and effectiveness
OF the American Federation of Labor.
Every local union man and union
woman should perform his or her
part so that the important work of
organization may be continued and
lntensively. The officers Of the Amer
lean Federation Of Labor request
that the following action be taken:
That all central bodies appoint or
ganizing committees, where such
committees are not already provided
for, to work in conjunction with the
local volunteer organizer or organ
lzers. That these committees and
organizers outline campaign of or
ganization under the direction of the
central body. Local speakers should
be secured to address all meetings
which may be called, as we'll as Sc
curing the cooperation of all trade
unionists in the performance of per-
sonal work among. the unorganized.
The American Federation of Labor
will assist in this campaign by furn-
ishing, without cost, trade union lit
erature in. any quantity necessary to
cover the field. This literature will
be printed in the following Ian
guages:
English, Polish, Italian, German,
Slav, French, Spanish, Yiddish, Nor
wegian, Lithuanian, Danish, Portu-
guese, Hungarian, Swedish and Rus
sian.
Orders for this literature will be
honored when applied for by officials
of central bodies or organizers. Each
central body must state specifically
the number of unorganized and their
respective nationalities in the various
Cities SO that the proper amount
and character of literature can be
forwarded.
Let the watchword be "Organize.' -
Let us, with united effort, work I'M
ceasingly to the end that the yet I'M
organized may be placed within the
beneficient fold of unionism, that it's
benefits may increase and better con-
ditions prevail among the workers.
Conditions in the commercial
world, added to the ever-increasing
cost of living, is causing the unor-
gained workingmen to adopt the
thinking" habit. With this favor
able position obtaining, it is the ur-
gent duty of every central body, local
union and individual member to do
its, his or her part of the great or
ganizing campaign being conducted

FAMILY OF H, DE ROCHE
ALMOST ASPHYXIATEI

The family Of Henry De Roche, re-
siding at III Restormel, had a mar
row escape from asphyxiation on Sat
urday last, when coal gas escaped
from the kitchen range A young
child of the family was the first ia
awaken. The mother heard the cry
Of the child, and going. to it's relief
fell upon the floor.
Mr.. De Roche managed to gather
sufficient strength to get to the door
for fresh air. In short time all OF
the members Of the family were re-
stored. but had they not been awak-
ened by the child, they would prob
ably all have suffered death.
They are now on their. way to re-
covery.
MIR. De Roche is prominent men,
Der Of the Painters union and is
well known in labor circles.

WANTS PUPILS To
STUDY ACCIDENTS
Bureau of Labor Believes School
Children Should Brush Up
On Cause of Injuries.

The Bureau of Labor will recon-
mend to the legislature the passage
of law requiring all private and
parochial schools in the state to
cause not less than one hour in each
month to be devoted to instructing
their pupils to ways and means OF
preventing accidents and of render
ing first aid to injured persons.
The bill was drawn in Duluth by
one of the foremost authorities on
accident prevention in this portion of
the country.
What to do in case of an accident
and how to prevent accidents are
mighty important studies, and the
bill should receive the, support OF
every member of the legislature
Under the provisions Of the bill,
the state superintendent of public in
struction is required to prepare and
publish, at the expense Of the state
book conveniently arranged in
chapters or lessons for the purpose
OF instructing in accident preven-
ton, and first aid to the injured.

in all our work."

IN all our work.
J. IL. Miller, on behalf of the
Builders Exchange, made some de-
servant complimentary remarks to the
members of the union. He cited many
instances of the amicable manner in
which the unions and the exchange
members work together.
J. H. Miller, one of the leading
builders supply merchants of the city,
also added his testimony to the bene-
fit of the union to the building trades.
H. G. Geary, president of the
Trades and Labor assembly, discussed
the happy relations that exist between
the architects, the contractors and the
Workingmen. The presidents Of 9TH
er building trades unions also made
Interesting speeches.
- The unions of Edmonton have not
had any strikes or lockouts. Natur-
ally, there have been a few minor
troubles arising from time to time,
but these were easily adjusted. The
unions have standing agreement
with the employers, prepared by a
joint arbitration committee composed
of five members from the unions and
five members from the Builders Ex-
change. All matters are referred to
this committee for adjustment.
The exchange has always recog-
nized the building trades unions. No
wonder Edmonton is growing by leaps
and bounds when there is such CO.
operation between the employers and
employees. No city can prosper when
any portion Of the citizens are en-
gagged in warfare against other por-
lions. The builders of Duluth might
well take a lesson from the situation
at Edmonton.

SAN DIEGO, CAL, Feb. 27.-Or-
ganized labor of San Diego is to have
home of it's own. This seems al
