believed to be unavoidable; at any rate, it is certain that a serious at- tempt will be made a it.
 It is probable, too. that several of the measures which were lost in the shutfle in the closing hours of the regular session and concerning which recommendations have been made by the governor, will receive attention.
 But it is the opinion of members now here that. though the house might do so, the senate will not con slider any new legislation.
 There has been nc talk. that is. none that outsiders have heard. of any move to reorganiZe the house. such as was attempted at the be- ginning of the last extra session. 1t was stated then that that could not be legally done and. anyway. there IS not the same apparent probability of factional disturbances as those which were imminent and actually took place.
 The land bill will likely produce an entirely new lineup in both houses and the prohibition matter if it should be brought up, would not di- vide the house or the senate on pre- cisely the same lines as they were divided before. The capital punish ment question, if it should be con sidered. would come more nearly re- storing the old lineup than any oth- CT recommended legislation. but even on that there would be so1ne shifting of sides in the house of members of the administration and anti-adminis- tration factions

izers, working out of the Pittsburgh

are being anonymously threatened by
thugs as reward for their efforts at

the awakening intelligence of their

John L. Lewis last week received the

organizers of the American Fedora

to bel n the pay of the German gov
eminent, and urged all the workers
to stay away from their meetings.
Lewis and Flynn spoke last Thurs
day in Wilmerding, and Fannie Sellins
will speak there next Thursday. The
work of organization will be carried
on in spite of the threats and the per-
sonal danger, and it is believed that a
strong organization will be formed
there under the protection of the
American Federation of Labor.

Spe|ter Shortage
'Supp|ants Rubber0id
For GALVANIZED Roofs

Shortage of spelter is supplantine
rubberoid roofing for galvanized iron
This is the substance of statement
by Walter Larkin, vice president O.
the Amalgamated Association, who re
turned to his home in Martins Ferry
Monday, after a weeks trip through
the territory represented by the mem
beers of his organization.
From various causes" said Mr.
Larkin to the Majority, things are
not what we would wish them to be
in the tin and sheet trade. The main
argument used by the manufacturers
in explaining idleness of mills is the
high price Of spelter.s We produce enc
third of the spelter in this country
and sths two thirds, imported hereto.
fore. from England and Germany has
nsRractically shut off BY the war
This has resulted in a rise in price
from 5 to accents per pound. Manu-.
facturers claim that it is used neces.
sarily in the making of guaranteed iron
and manufacturers contend that they
cannot now produce galvanized iron
profitably to sell under. 5 cents a
pound. The market, however, will not
pay more than 1896.
THE high price of galvanized iron
has almost eliminated it this season
from roofing use. and it has been prac-
tically supplanted by 'rubberoid' roof
ing.
War Products More Profitable.
Besides, war munitions are more
profitable, and the attention of steel
manufacturers is being. directed to-
ward this. now. In Hazefton, for in.
stance, a new steer mill has been
erected, but our men have not found
the work they had expected, as the
employers learned that it is more pro
fitable to produce 6x6 steel billets for
shrapnel."

The conservative members of the
Commission on Industrial Relations
must prepare for thorough roasting
from opponents of standpatism. They
have made a report on industrial un-
rest, and not only admitted the exis-
tence of such thing, but did not say
that it was due to envy of the indus
trious and thrifty by lazy, incompetent
spendthrifts, spurred on by profes-
sional agitators, Don't they see that
if unrest is not due to such causes,
that it must rest on some justiiable
ground? From plutocratic point OF
view, Messrs. Ashton, Weinstock and
Ballard might as well have approved
all of Frank p. Walsh's report.

Increase In Members

The organizing committee of Local
Union No. 81 met Friday night. The
different chairmen made very lengthy
reports on the work that had been &C.
complished. The campaign has been
very successful up to the present time
and many new members are being
added. The committee plans to see
every fireman in this vicinity, and
trade unionists knowing of a non-un-
ion fireman will confer a favor by
handing the name to L. F. Sprouse or
any member Of No. 81. It is the in
tention of the firement to obligate
a very large class very soon and hold
a smoker in connection when every
member of No. 81 can be present to
welcome the new members.
The committee in charge Of the
work expect to add at least thirty new
members within the next three weeks
and the way each committee is work
ing their is no doubt about the re-
suits. There is no reason why every
fireman in this valley should not be,
a member of No. Il, for the initiation
fee is very low and the dues amount
to practically nothing when the bene-
fits derived from being member of
good live organization are taken
into consideration. The fremen in
some of the trust mills here are re-
ceiving as much as 10 cents per hour
less than the members Of No. 81. But
the organizing committee is making
an effort to reach them all and show
them how to get increased wages and
shorter hours.
AS Adopt Funeral Benefit.
At the last meeting of No. 81 the
committee appointed to draft funer-
al benefit reported and their recon-
mendations were adopted and in the
future any member who is in, good
standing at time of death will receive
an amount sufficient to provide at
least a respectable burial. A commit
tee was appointed to revise the By
Laws so as to conform with the fun
eral benefit. The committee will re-
port at the next meeting and it is
requested that all members be pres
emit.
The firemen employed at the North
Wheeling hospital have ojined L. o.
No. %. This is only the first step to-
ward organizing several other plants
of this nature. The organizing com,
mittee will meet Friday night, Oct.
1st. at Majority Hall. All members
are requested to be present as several
important matters will be acted upon.
