HELP OTHER UNIONS.
Organized Workers Should Spread the
Gospel of United Effort.

Organized Workers Should Spread the
Gospel of United Effort.
If the member gets into the habit of
looking at all matters from the stand
point of the benefit of his union and
gets into the habit of regular attend
anee and steady work in its behalf he
is then no longer content to be merely
a union member. but becomes union
man; he has become inoeulated with
the desire to do something for the la
Dor cause. And about that time he
will realize that he owes a duty to
his fellow workers in other crafts who
may or may not have succeeded in
their organized effort as well as his
associates in his own craft.
1t doesn't take very deep philoso-
pher to reason out that when one be-
comes a member of organized labor.
that is TO say. sincere and earnest
member who wants to see the move
ment succeed not only for his benefit
but for others, and who is willing to
give.-some effort for It's success. that
every time anything is done to
strengthen sister union in any other
craft. so much more strength is added
to the total force of organized labor.
which must be. directly or indirectly.
a benefit to every unit of that force.
1t is our duty to help other unions
at every possible opportunity. First
we must help them to organize in our
home communities. We must seek out
the workers In the unorganized trades
and help to add them to the forces Of
organized labor. We must aid the
partially organized trades and make
them stronger. We must never be
content SO long as there is a craft or
a man outside the ranks of organized
labor. In this way we shall help those
trades that are purely local. such as
the building trades, and that may not
have the benefit of union label, and
to whom we may render the most val
liable and timely assistance.
Then there are the other trade union
labels, which perhaps may not have
local unions in our home community.
but whether they do or not. every
time we patronize their labels we are
boosting our own union stamp. When
by purchasing a union label suit of
clothes we employ a union garment
worker in New York we are giving the
union garment worker the wages with
which to purchase union stamp pair
of shoes, and this same reasoning APP
plies to every other trade union label,
each of which every member OF this
union should support to the utmost. :

L-ARoR's MISSION.

. Labor unions do not seek spe-
cial privilege. They seek real
. justice and opportunity for all to
further their own welfare. In
order to achieve that purpose
. they seek to take from powerful
: property interests special privi-
. leges which they have enjoyed to
: the 6etriment of many. In order
. to secure just demands which can
be secured only through organiza-
. ton unions must have the right
: to normal, legitimate activities.
. Denial Of the right to these ac-
: tivities results in lawlessness.
Therefore organized labor seeks
. to have legalized activities neces-
sary to securing industrial JUS
. tice. TO favor organizations of
labor and yet to deny them legal
. rights to activities which make
them real and effective is a de-
. ceit that can no longer be prac-
ticed upon Americas workers.
: UNIONS nave enabled them TO
have better opportunities TO
. know their rights and to secure
o greater degree of justice.
. Industrial justice touches the
life of the workers very closely.
: Without it liberty does not exist.
. Industrial justice must be made
: a part of the lives of all the peo-
pie. This is the mission of or
! ganized labor.

FACES MANY ENEMIES
Servia Likely TO Join Russia, Great
Britain and France in War
on the Sultan.

London, Nov. 6.-France has fol
lowed the lead Of Great Britain and
declared war on Turkey.
With Russia, Great Britain and
France as it's foes Turkey soon may
find Servia's war declaration placed
on its front doorstep.
Fighting between the Turks and
Russians is progressing, but, as was
the cast at the opening OF the war be-
tween Russia and Austria, each side
claims the advantage.
1t is believed here that the clashes
are merely tfeelers" preparatory to
sanguinary fighting which is bound to
materialize within a few days.
The Anglo-French fleet continues to
lombard the Dardanelles forts, but
the Turks say the warships have in
tiieted no damage. British reports,
however, insist that Forts Kumkaleh
and Siddulbahr have been damaged.
Persia appears anxious to remain
out of the conflict. An official state
ment has been presented to the powers
announcing its strict neutrality.
Turk Army on Frontier.
Petrograd, Nov. "a Turkish army,
10000 strong, consisting Of the Ninth,
Tenth and Eleventh army corps, is
massed along the Caucasian frontier
according to the Novoe Vremya. Many
villages have been occupied by the out,
posts of this army.
American Marines Landed.
London, Nov. 6.-The Russian ad-
miralty announced officially that the
Turkish fleet has been driven from
the Black sea and is now effectively
bottled UP in the Bosporus, with the
Russian Black sea fleet standing guard
at the entrance.
7 The Temps at Paris has received a
report stating that American marines
have been landed at Beirut, Syria, for
the protection of American interests.

have gone down immediately after the
battle, CARRIED 900 officers and men.
In addition the British cruiser Glas-
gov and the transport Otranto were
struck by shells from the German
ships and damaged.
If, as believed, the fire stricken and
shell riddled cruiser Good Hope went
to the bottom in the gale that was
raging during the battle it is certain
that Sir Christopher Cradock. who vas
commander of the British squadron in
Mexican waters, lost his life.
The warships in the feet which de-
feated the English were the Scharn-
horst, Gneisenau. Nurnberg, Leipzig
and Bremen. They won as the re
suit of two factors: Heavier ordnance
and superior gunlery. The weather
was rainy and foggy and there was q
gale blowing when the battle opened.
In spite of the mist and the rolling
rof the ships, the Germans made near
ly every shot tell.
German Cruisers Missing.
Valparaiso, Chile, Nov. "a wire
less cry from the British cruiser Glas-
gow-intercepted by the German vic
tors-was the last word received
from Rear Admiral Cradock's squad
ron, following the engagement off
the Chilean coast Sunday. There was
no reply to the %radiogram.
The Germans heard the Monmouth
sink and heard an explosion on board
the Good Hope which they believe
sent the crippled flagship to the bottom.
All that night the German cruiser
Nurnberg searched the seas unsuccess-
fully for the Good Hope. Whether
the Glasgow and the transport Otran-
to, which escaped destruction, sur
vived the damage suffered is not
known.
The whereabouts also of the German
cruisers Leipzig and Bremen remains
in doubt.
German officers were not backward
about commencing the bravery of the
Britishers in the Uneven combat and
intimated that an effort to save lives
would have been made If the storm,
which assumed almost hurricane pro-
portions, had permitted.

TELL OF GERMAN RETREAT
Russian Headquarters Claim continu-
Gus Victories for Their Forces
Berlin Official Report.

Petrograd, Nov. 6.-Everywhere ex-
cept in South Poland the Germans
have been beaten back to their own
frontier and the Russian advance
down the vistulaf river has broken the
resistance of the combined German
and Austrian force, which must now
retreat or be cut off.
The forward movement of the Rus
slams is now general and it is pre-
dicted here that the Grand Duke Mich
olas will be in a position to invade
Silesia sooner than had been expected.
The unlocked for weakness Of the Ger
mans in East Prussia and North and
Central Poland has put Russian pros
poets in the most favorable light.
The most important result Of the
rapid pursuit by the Russians will be
that Germany cannot carry out her re-
ported plan to send several army corps
from the east to REINFORCE the armies
in Belgium and France.
Admit Austrian Retreat.
Berlin, Nov. 5.-An announcement
given out in Vienna says that Aus
trian forces in Poland, after holding
the Russians in check on the Lysa-
CORA, continued their retiring move
ment to positions previously selected
by them.
The situation in Galicia is un-
changed.

ANXIOUS FOR NAVAL BATTLE
British Public Welcomes News That
German Fleet Has Left Harbor
British Defeat Off Chile.

London, Nov. 6.-Battleships and
battle cruisers, detached from the
British grand fleet, searched the
North sea for a German squadron of
four battleships and four cruisers
which slipped from Wilhelmshaven
for a raid on the English coast.
There is intense interest here, with
the hope everywhere enthusiastically
expressed that Admiral J~ellicoe's fleet
can locate the German ~battleships and
cruisers and destroy them.
Unquestionably the German squad
ron which fred on torpedo gunboat
Halcyon Tuesday was within ten miles
Of the English coast and was maneuv-
ering off Yarmouth.
The fact that the Germans were
able to evade powerful British cruis-
ers and actually threaten the coast has
created much excitement and alarm,
but it is supposed that the admiralty
is able to deal adequately with the
new danger.
It is scarcely to be doubted that a
change has come over German naval
policy. The Germans are apparently
determined not to submit to being bot
tied up, and are willing to fight for
control OF the North sea.
1900 British Lost In Sea Fight.
Valparaiso, Chile, Nov, 5.-Omcers
Of the German cruiser Scharnhorst
expressed the belief that nearly two
thousand British officers and sailors
had been killed in the naval engage
ment Off Coronel. The British cruiser
Monmouth, which was sunk, carried a
complement of 67S officers and men
and the cruiser Good Hope, the flag
ship OF Rear Admiral Sir Christie
pher Cradock, which is believed to
