Tobacco G1ut Puzzles Danville.

Danville was puzzled to handle the
tobacco. The vast majority of the product
was brought to the city in country
wagons, the farmers coming in and
camping in the streets while waiting to
get into the warehouses. The streets
were almost impossible for the week.
To see a string of twenty wagons from
one ne:ghborhood was not an unusual
occurrence. The prices have been very
high, and whi.e they are lowering just a
Bit they are still satisfactory. The be-
Lief is that the city will sell not less
than 3.00O,O00 pounds of loose-leaf this
week, the banks paying out about half a
mill on dollars to the farmers.
The quality of the offerings is good,
and the prices served to arouse atten-
ton at this time. The city is engaged in
for h gh-class tobacco. the result being
such as to surprise the old C. .tizens and
dealers. The fact that the farmers come
to the city in their wagons and spend
their money with the Danville merchants
serves to make Danville one of the
busiest places in the state. Danville Is
Just completing another cotton facory,
and will need more than $50 operatives
for the plant-men,> women and children.
The mills are the largest N the south,
being part of the Schoolfield system
of mills which employ several thousand
persons. The cotton mills at DanVills
are institutions which are paying hand
some dividends on a capitalization OF

behind the appointment no one is really

that Mr. Dodson operates a store at the

routes start from his point he has de-
cided advantage over the merchants To-
Gated at other points in the county, and

GARMENT WORKERS WIN THEIR
FIRST BIG BATTLE
The Chicago garment workers
have won their first great battle in
their fight to organize.
The NJ. L. Oberndorf Company, 901
West Jackson boulevard, which
started to get rid of every employee
who even whispered unionism, now is
ready to recognize the union and to
give its employees every chance to
organize.
The Oberndorf Company was hunt
ing for trouble last week. 1t fired a
presser who had dared to whisper a
few words about organization to his
fellow workers.
When the discharged presser took
up his coat and hat, so did every
other presser employed by the COM
pany.
The pressers walked out and
marched directly to the headquarters
of the district council of the Garment
Workers Union, 317 West Quincy
street.
There they formed a committee to
deal with the company, and arrange
ments were made to call out all the
other employees of the 0berndorf
Company.
1t wasn't necessary, The company
suddenly realized that it might have
bitten of a whole lot more than it
could chew, and sent for A. B. Firen-
pietsi, chairman of the joint board
of the garment workers council
The bosses were very humble
when Firenpietsi appeared. They
told him they had decided they did
not want to have any trouble with

organization; that they had no OBJ
lection to organization; that they
liked the union, and that they never
would object to any shop meeting of
their employees called for purposes Of
organization.
The employees of the company are
taking immediate advantage of their
victory. They will hold mass meet
ing at Bricklayers' Hall, Monroe and
Peoria streets, tonight. Every oneI
of the 400 Oberndorf employees viii
attend the meeting, and a thorough
organization is expected to be eff
fected.
Meantime the plans of the district
council for organizing the $4,000 UNI
organized garment workers of thef
city are going steadily ahead.
Meetings are being held daily; thef
gospel of unionism is being preacheda
in every clothing house in the city,f
and 100000 leaflets with the "caI to

BIGGEST AID MAN
IS BOOSTER FOR
TACOMA

Urging honesty in advertising,
publicity for the Puget Sound
country, and worldwide organi-
cation of ad men, William Wood
head, president of the Associated
Advertising Clubs of America,
made forceful address to the
Tacoma AID club last evening. His
most interesting topic was his urg-
ent demand that Tacoma and 9TH
er Northwest cities advertise
themselves, their climate and
scenery, in the east. He said
thousands would come west for
the San Francisco fair, and would
come to Puget Sound readily if
they were told something of it's
beauties. Woodhead was given
an automobile ride about the city
before the AID club dinner, and
became an enthusiastic booster for
Tacoma.
