Pennsy Employees to

EXPECT TO BRING CLOSER WORK
ING RELATIONS.
Plan contempIstes AmaIgamation o.
10000 Operating Employees Of
the Road.

Statements were made in Pittsburgh
recently by railroad men indicating
that 10000 employees of the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad east of Pittsburgh are
to be merged into one labor organiza-
ton, details Of which have been
worked out at a series of meetings.
Under the new arrangements the
Brotherhood OF Railroad Trainmen,
Order OF Railway Conductors. Brother
hoods of Locomotive Engineers and
Firemen and the Order of Railroad
Telegraphers are to make up the new
body. Up to last week those who are
interested in the movement have been
meeting in secret.
Among the important questions to
be decided before the amalgamation
is complete is whether the Pennsyi-
vania workmen who are to form the
new organization will withdraw from
the national unions to which they have
been affiliated.
It is plainly stated that the merg
ing OF the unions is for the purpose OF
bringing about closer relationship
among all the men employed on the
Pennsylvania railroad.

Can the tent-dweller Withstand it?
/ don't know. Let us hope so.
Perhaps they, who have been worked
like mules and voted like sheep, have
learned the great gift of patience.
Again the wind means and shrieks
across the housetops, while down at
the end of the street are the strikers
tents in row.
The town about the tents is quiet,
business is dull and the swinging
doors of its twenty-five saloons. are
swung less frequently. Can it be that
much of their gains came also from
the labor of the men in mines and
was another revenue of gain by Cap
ital from Labor? The trains that
shunted by so often, carrying great
rations of coal to fed the cleaning,
greedy furnaces of the world, are now
but few and attract more attention.
The passenger train goes by. Its
whistle in and out used to cause you
SO much restlessness in the days when
you cast a glance of longing at the
old battered trunk in the corner and
throttling the desire in your heart to
run away. That restlessness is gone
and you hear the whistle of the train
with Indifference. There is a new in.
terest that holds you to the quiet
scene-quiet and heavy with forebod.
ing and almost with sadness. But in.
teresting, yes, for Industry sits hold
ing its hands, while Capital cries for
aid.
The wind has ceased and the snow
is falling. Capital puts another shovel.
full of its boarded coal in the furnace;
and. comfortably housed, smiles at the
biting cold. while down at the end of
the street are the strikers tents in
the snow.

At the end of the street!

Today the wind whistles across the
plain at the foot of the Snowy Range
like clustering gunman hunting for
peaceful miner. Straight comes this
chilling wind from the snowy Spanish
Peaks, whose silence, as they watch
over the plains spread out below them.
is the silence of eternal mystery. l
wonder il they know the solving of
this greater question between capital
ard labor.
Beautiful in the coldness the peaks
look down upon US. And Capital, gaz-
ing from the steam-heated homes.
closes its doors and looks from its
windows; while Labor, watching from
the tents at the foot of the street.
ties together the Tapping curtains and
smooths the old blanket over the new
baby. Should there be a bullet hole
in that canvas house 1t must be
patched before the snow comes.
God gives love! Far down at the
end OF the street are the strikers
tents in the cold.
How much easier it is in the time

Not single IS Fine Has Been I'M
posed BY Either Of the Four
Locals In Denver.

Practice what you preach. is the
literally observed motto of the four
Denver unions chartered by the Inter
national Union of United Brewery
workmen. In asking other union men
and women to buy their products.
they reciprocate in turn by spending
their own money for only such goods
as bear the union label.
At Sundays meeting of the Trades
and Labor Assembly Delegate Will
liam Junghaene said the various shop
committeeman OF brewery workers
bottlers and drivers saw to 1t that
every workman lived squarley up to
the law of the union in reference to
purchasing label goods. In case of
violation IS fine was provided. but
up to this time 1t had not been found
necessary to impose this penalty up
on single member
Perhaps no other body of wage
earners in Denver can lay claim to
such consistent unionism as that ex-
emplified by the boys affiliated with
the Brewery Workers Union.

Washington.--Th Democratic tariff
revision bill, first ON the program OF
reforms mapped out when President
Wilson came into office, advanced to
It's last congressional stage when It
was brought back to the house from
the joint conference committee with
the unanimous Endorsement OF the
Democratic conferees.
The measure, of course, has both its
friends and enemies. According to
the administration. II carries out
four OF the party promises. Tarlff re-
form. reduction In the high cost of
living, campaign against the trusts, in
that duties have been taken of of
many trust made article. and the In
come tax.
The measure. consequently. has
larger Importance than that OF mere
tariff reform bill, and It's effect must
be widespread, both on business and
Industry, and also In connection with
politics. Democratic leaders are con-
fident that business will suffer no un.
toward effect; that consumers will be
benefited.
Changes In the Rates.
The bill imposes an average I'D
yalorem rate OF from % to 20 per
cent. The average for the present
Aldrich law is 4012 per cent, The
average for the Wilson.Gorman act
was 3945 per cent.
Duties generally have been reduced
on all Of the articles that enter into
the necessaries OF life. including the
products Of the farm as well as manu-
Iactured products.
Trust made products in many cases
have been transferred to the free list
or the duties at present imposed have
been substantially reduced
The income tax feature Of the bill is
expected to net some sS3.000.000. Il
will call for a tax on net incomes Of
unmarried persons of $4,000 and up
wards and on net incomes OF married
persons living together. where the
wife or husband is dependent, of S4-
900 and upwards.
