UNION SHOP COMING BACK.

The building trades unions of Duluth are fast re-
gaining the ground they lost in the lockout Of 1907
Many of the building trades contractors long ago
tired of the socalled open shop" they compelled
to establish under club welded by the American Bridge
company and the Duluth Real Estate Exchange. .
Few if any, of the local building contractors have
enoyed the same measure of prosperity since the lock-
out that they did previous to that time. Many Of the
best workmen left the city and sought employment in
communities where labors right to organize to COL
lect1vely bargain were undisputed
For several years following the lockout most of the
building trades unions badly shattered Their ranks
were broken and working conditions became exceedingly
untaVorable, although little complaint was made about
wages or hours of labor Where conditions have not
become unfavorabe they least remained station
ary while all about them trades that enjoyed union shop
conditions made steady advances
During the past year unions have gathered new
strength Not few Of them 100 per cent strong;
that s they have as members every tradesman the
city Those that per cent strong are mighty
close to it. AS matter of fact the Union Shop
in Duluth today although it is not generally
or recognized.
Many employers are seeking better understanding
with the unions and conferences are being held which,
no doubt will result in the signing up Union Shop
agreements IN the course of these conferences
are being made in at least Of the trades on the
OF employers, in return for Union Shop agreements to
have the members Of the agree to work for none
except members of contractors associations
1t Is to be hoped that trade union in Duluth will
yield to such agreement. It will result as it has
ever done, in borrowing troubles for labor t. Is
raugh with grave danger to the trade unons
The necessity for effort the Of aborers to
higher wages and improved working conditions will he
set aside and they will be obliged to fight the battles
OF the employers who will expect the unions to compel
every employer to become member of an employers
association.
No trade union in Duluth should have anything to do
with sucn proposition The Union Shop must not be
purchased at such price. It should win on it's own
merits not at ALL
