WORLD or LABOR

Wages of seafaring men who ship
on the shores of the marine prov
inces of Canada are now nearly
double what they were ten years
ago.
1t is reported that IL organize
ticns of employers employing so
per cent. of the union men in this
country, have combined to resist
demands for increased pay.
The strike of 80, 900 allied shop

years old, may be the first labor

of this union man.

AT the meeting of the Co-opera-
tive Trades and Labor Council
Tuesday night, the committee ap-
pointed to cali on saioous on behalf
of the local cigarnsakers and cigar
manufacturers reported that many
of the saloon proprietors claimed
that they handle outside non-uniGn
cigars because the union men call
for them. Now this is broad as,
sertion but all of the union men we
know positively do not smoke any
thing but union labeled cigars.
But we must admit that some of
the so called union men do smoke e
outside non union made cigars and
they smoke them daily. The bar
tenders and proprietors know who
these men are but they will no
tell their names. The only way 10
make these would be union men
come to time is every union man
who is on the square appoint him-
self committe of one ard expose
them before the meetings. We
will have to start some place and
at some time and we might as we'll
begin now. If we are going to
create a demand for union made
cigars and put the cigarmakers on
footing the sooner we get doing
it the better we will be eff We
know it to be a fact that since the
cigarmakers have been doing some
work along this line many Of the
business men who have for years
smoked nothing but outside goods
have notified their dealers that they
are from now on going TO smoke
the Hamilton cigars. If they are
going to do it we should also do it
and without being compelled or
told to do so If you find union
man smoking scab cigars EXPOSE
HIM.

Labor SwindIe Uncovered.

Kansas City, Mo-, April 3.-As
the result of state wide investiga-
ton James ]. Barrett, deputy state
labor commissioner, reports that
thousands of dollars are annually
extorted from laborers vino are
shipped out on railroad construc
tion work, through a chain of la
Dor agencies and their allies located
in this city. The com missioner Sc
cured work as laborer in many of
the railroad cams of the state
Kansas city is the chief point from
which shipments are made, the la
Dor agents working in conjunction
with interpreters. The latter en-
gage the men and charge fee of
from s to So. The money Is then
turned over to the employment
agent and the interpreter gets a
job as foremen. The laborers are
forced to pay So a month to the
foreman for the privilege of remain
ing at work. Part of this money
hnds its way into the pockets of
minor railroad officials in charge of
the job. The commissioner states
that one Interpreter told him he
had made ST., 800 iu three months
through sthis system. The state la
bor department has ordered all per-
sons arrested who are masquerad-
ing as interpreters who are engaged
in procuring laborers for labor
agencies. 1t is a violation of the
law for an unlicensed person to en-
gage men and accept money frem
them. The first agent arrested was
charged with taxing FIVE laborers
30 piece and then inducing them
to give him $40 for road master
on the St. Louis & San Francisco
railroad.

BOAT TRIPS

Some attraction, indeed, is the
river these early spring days, for
the weather man did not prove
quite true to the Island Queen"
and the Princess the past two
Sundays, and even in pite of this
handicap, hundreds enjoyed the in
vigorating, helpful, delightful trips
up down the river.
The Princess will forget the
Fernbank Dam April 9Th and will
cruise to New Richmond twice at
1000 a. N. and at 2:30 p. m. re-
turning from the 6nal trip in ample
time 10 take out the dancers by
moonlight at 500 o'clock. All
trips start from the Coney Island
wharfboat at the foot of Broadway.
The Queen will make the Hoosier
city trips, starting at $3.50 q. N.
and at $50 p. M, starting at the
Broadway wharfboat, and you cam t
do any better than TO plan to spend
day on tne Ohio The dancing is
a most delightful feature, all the
new, novel, and intricate dances
being featured on both the boats
on every cruise.

The Anti Asiatic League of Cali
fornia is conducting campaign of
education against patronizing Asi-
attic labor and will send copies of
speeches of Congressman dealing
with the Asiatic question to all
unions ard labor organizations.
The league has placed number of
trailers in the field to discourage
patronizing Asiatics directly and
indirectly.
Two sweeping legal victories
were won by Labor when the Ore
gon Supreme Court in two opinions
pronounced the minimum wage law
and the ten-hour law, both passed
by the last Legislature, constitu
tional. The ground upon which
both were declared valid was that
it is within the police power of the
State to enact laws for the protec-
ton of the health morals and well
fare Of its citizens.
In line with the established policy
of the American Federation of La
Dor to amalgamate and federate
trade unions, a meeting of interest

President Gompers, was held in

Union of Steam Shovelmen with

Edison Tells the Secret of How They
Strike the Right Note.


Thomas A. Edison, who has an ex-
pert knowledge of every known mu-
sical instrument. from the oboe to the
aeolian harp. was discussing the great
violinists of the present age. He spoke
with deep feeling.
Il have to admit" he declared sadly,
that for long time those fellows had
me completely bewi'dered used to
watch them in amaZement. Every time
one OF them shot finger halfway
down the neck Of his fiddle and stop
ped 1t In exactly the right place for
the sounding note gasped In astonish-
ment. Every time, 1t seemed, he could
stop that finger correctly within one
thousandtb of an inch. That's what he
had to do in order to make the right
note. And l concluded that he and his
fellows were In some way superior to
all other kinds of people in the matter
of judging distances
But | know better now After long
and careful observation | have discov-
cred the truth. Those fellows shoot
their fingers up and down with an air
Of great confidence, but they never
know exactly where the fingers will
stop. Like any other human being,
they guess at it, Then just as the note
is begun by the scraping of the bow
their trained ears catch the defect, and
they readjust their fingers. Conse-
quently, although the public doesn't
know 1T, the great violin geniuses OF
the world fill their work with q lot of
notes that start falsely. Popular Mag

ONE of the unfortunate things
among our laboring people is the
fact that some of them are com
PEELED to ask for charity II would
be grand thing if every labor un-
ion could set aside fund for their
members for this purpose. Some
of the unions have an out of work
benefit but they are very few The
reason for this is because it is i'm
possible to tax a union man high
dues when he is not making the
money. If the laborer could earn
enough money which would enable
him to set aside portion of it for
emergencies he would not be com
PEELED to appeal for charity.

JUST at the present time little
activity has been noticed among the
local labor unions. Two just or
ganized and several more are on
the way. It will not be long until
Hamilton will have as many labor
unions as any city it's size in the
United States. One of the good
qualities about our local unions,
they do not want trouble with the
employer if it can be prevented.
