The Gem worker and the Idaho labor herald. (Boise, Idaho) 1914-1917, 1915-12-30

trade unions contend with today are
in many ways similar to those which
troubled the workers centuries ago
1t is one of the most serious ones
which our movement is forced to con-
tend with today, for while the juris-
dictional dispute of today and yes
terday may be adjusted, some change
in methods of production, or the use
of some new material, at once creates
the question -of which union shall
have jurisdiction over the work.
Some enthusiasts, unheeding the
history of the past, have advocated an
extreme industrial form or organiza-
ton as cure. In doing this, however,
they close their eyes to the self-evi-
dent fact that such form of organi-
zation, which, if it could exist for any
length of time, might minimize the
number of smaller disputes for a
while. would in the very nature of
things develop jurisdictional strife up
on a larger scale than ever before, and
involve hundreds of thousands in BIT
ter jurisdictional disputes, where but
hundreds are involved today. There
would be overlapping Of Industries
just as there are overlapping of trades
today, and always have been"

mouth piece of organized labor, and
is such a welcome visitor in the
homes of the wage-earners of the

ey and who spend it where it will
bring results. TIE wise dealer

self accordingly.

which speak for the wage earners
of their respective communities.
In Idaho, The Gem Worker is the
recognized spokesman of organiz-
