1t is fact not generally known that
the railroad telegraphers' organization
is different in its makeup from any
other labor organization in the world.
A large majority of its membership is
composed of operators working in
places where only one telegrapher is
employed in town, and that one is
usually the station agent and general
factotum for the railroad. The sta
tons are so far apart, as rule. that 1t
is impossible for any great number of
agents to meet together at any one time
or place without seriously interfering
with the business of the railroad, con
sequently they have to get along With
out meetings and transact most of
their business by correspondence. They
have the advantage of being able to
communicate with one another by wire
to IL certain extent but that process IS
not conducive to enthusiasm. and
certain amount of enthusiasm plays an
effective part in organization work.
However. what was hitherto thought
to be an impossibility in the way of
organization has by careful and per
sistent work been brought about, and
the railroad telegraphers can now
boast of an effective labor organiza-
ton.
When the organization was first i'll

business and the general processes of

station agents. lever men. interockers.
train dispatchers, line repairers and
train directors.
In most instances they are organized
into what are called system divisions
that is to say. that all the telegraphers

EVERETT UNIONS ARE IN
SPLENDID SHAPE.

Quietly, but none the less surely,
organized labor in Everett has been
strengthening up its ranks during the
past few months. A new local, the
boot and shoe workers, has taken its
place among the unions is now meet

held their own and have been remark
ably free from trouble.
Organized labor in Everett ap

spirit that makes for true unionism
than ever before. Surely we have

in attendance. The presidents report
to that obdy indicated 101 revised
schedules and wage scales accom-

Each and every one of these negotia-

was a total absence of strikes during
the two year period. This probably
