So overwhelming is the news Of the European war
that practically little is heard of conditions in Mexico

toward Europe for the interests involved in Mexico to
"get away" with rather questionable actions In
the past while the people have been at fever heat
overly excited great crisis, "patriotc capt.
tai has taken advantage of the situation to make profits
What may be done in Mexico today may not be
known of until it is too late. Unless depend
our statesman at Washington, may be sure
predatory interests will not be idle. ;
On the heels of the news that Carranza is pro-
visonal president of the republic to the south of
comes meagre dispatch that Felix Daz contempates
counter-revolution. Why? For himself, for some
particular interest involved. Let not forget the
Glamour Hearst and oil interests made for war with
Mexico. Let bear in mind the made of these
interests in congressional investigation pointing out
the fact that the revolutions and iii
Mexico were fostered in New York City. <:'.-:~ ,

Wisconsin at present is suffering from seige on
many valuable institutions particularly the

DEMAND THE UNION LABEL.


Frequently when entering stores to purchase union

proposed by the merchant. -. -f ! *~:. r~ ) |, ! +

line >@-*
second-Union men don't ask for them or else won't

In short the whole argument is that it Is unproht-
able to handle them. 80 '.~: :
AS to the first objection know this to be clear
bunk The union label be furnished every
article in wearing apparel. i
The second objection that union don't ask for
the label is too frequently true. We fail times to
realize the effectiveness of the label That union label
goods not standard If true, is for
not asking for the label but rather an effect - :.
The third objection has element of contradiction
in it, First told that label goods cost be-
cause the wages higher. why should
demand it, then again told, when object to
purchasing better goods at cheaper prices, that we
don't want to paronize sweat shop labor child labor
that "these goods made in shop under sanitary
conditions and by workmen of the highest skill who
work reasonably short day at standard wages. These
two arguments can't together. Show the merchant
his inconsistency and at all times demand the union
