three hundred delegates. Those far
Their away were not so large. but
many schools were represented.
Counties Represented.
Oliver is among the distant coun-
ties with a fair delegation and, made
an impression in the parade because
of the distance travelled by the dele
gates. Eouthern and southwestern
counties were among those in which
several schools have n or two dele
gates. There was no program today,
time was taken in getting the dele
gates settled in quarters and regis.
tered at various churches. All the
city churches kept open house today
and have bureaus Of information.

composed Of all the church choirs of

was by Rev. P. w. Welsheimer, OF
Canton, Ohio, on "How to Build a
Bible School," 1t was declared the
principal thing was to interest the
child in infancy and keep him inter-
ested until he became so grounded in
faith and belief that he would stick
on his W volition. The convention
is the largest in the history Of the or
ganization. Almost every school in
the state is represented and many

A few months since the poor rail-
roads Of the east applied to the Inter
state Commerce Commission for the
right to raise their rates per cent.
1t was not for the stockholders bene-
fit that the increase was wanted.
Certainly not. 1t was all in the inter
est OF the employees. High" wages
must be met by increased rates or
the railroads would soon be bankrupt.
or course they were too kind hearted
to think of reducing wages per cent.
They were too fair" and reason
able" for anything like that. So the
increased rate was granted. Now
comes a dispatch from New York
which, as Togo Hashimura would
say, accentuates thusly:
"The railroads of the eastern ter,
ritory have entered a campaign for a
reduction this spring in the pay OF
employees, from engineers down to
trackmen. This will affect the earn
ings Of about 100000 men and a pay
roll approximating $60.ooO.OO0 per an
mum. Fifty-two railroads are identi
fled with the movement. and the ter
ritory covered by these lines lies east
Of Chicago, and, roughly, is that fol
which an increase In freight rates
has recently been granted"

ADVANCE IN COST OF LIVING
Taking as a basis upon which to
figure for the price Of commodities
from 1890 to 1899 az 800 We find
according to the table published in
the Canadian government Labor Ga
sette for January, that in December
1914, one would have to pay a. fol.

Grains and fodder, s1.S0.4; animals

Liquors and tobacco, $136.9.
According to the above table, tax

that what could be bought for $1.00 in

PEOPLE ) OF EVERETT!
BEWARE OF. THE
SNITCHMAN'

The people of Everett will have to
be on the lookout for snitchmen dur.
ing the continuance of labor troubles
in this city. Beware Of the snitch-
man!
Don't know what snitchman is?
Well, snitchman is a working-class
Judas Iscariot, trouble-maker, sent
into the ranks of labor by the union
smashers to commit lawless acts,
such as throwing tacks in the road
way, beating up strike-breakers, des-
troying property, and other acts Of
violence, for the express purpose of
creating prejudice against union
workers and sympathy for the poor
down-trodden touring-car element.
Organized labor knows full we1i
that it can never gain it's ends through
violence and lawlessness. Union men
are willing to leave the plug-ugly work
to the Lairds, Whites, and their ilk,
men whose business in life is to try
to tear down what the useful men,
bers of society the real wealth-crea-
tors, the working class, have built up
through years Of toll and self-sacri-
flee. Men who would aid rapacious
members of the employing-clas to re-
duce the American wage-workers to a
condition of obsolute slavery can not
be expected to respect any law but
the law Of pelf and power We eau
ton the well-meaning, disinterested.
average citizen of Everett against all
stories of lawlessness on the part Of
union men. Beware the snitchmen!
And remember, some of these vam-
pires are always placed within the
unions by persons who wish to crush
out all efforts of the wage-workers to
have an effective voice regarding the
conditions under which they work.
The Employers association is well
aware Of the fact that 1t Is far easier
to crush into humble, servitude one
individual fighting alone than 1t is to
enslave compact organization.
Hence the present effort to crush out
unionism in Everett.
BEWARE THEIR SNITCHMBN!
