He was discharged by the Pullman

Eve keep the names of all our

a soul except myself knows how
many members the union has or who
they are. If the list of names got out
there would be some wholesale firing
in the Pullman Co.
None would welcome more gladly
an anti-tipping law than the porters
themselves. If such law were passed
in Illinois the Pullman Co. would be
forced to pay living wage and the
difference would not be out of the
public pocket; it would come from the

EyAYoR THOMPSON AND THE
LABOR VOTE .-.s, ...

A reader of The Day Book dropped
into the office this morning and re-
quested that we print the following.
He claims Thompson as a good friend
of his and only wants his article pub
Iished in way of suggestion. Here
it is:
In these days there is hardly
problem connected with education,
civics, economics or public admins
tration but is being interpreted from
two distinct angles, viz, ..-
1. The standpointof the employing
class. '--
2. The standpoint of the wage
earning class.
While it is needless to assert that
conclusions arrived at from these diff
ferent viewpoints are usually diamet-
rically opposed to each other, the for
mer perpetuating privilege, the latter
demanding equal opportunity, the do
cility and forbearance of the great
working class under the surrounding
circumstances is beyond the power
of mind or spirit to solve.
William Hale Thompson belongs to
the employing class. From 80 to 80
per cent of the votes that elected him
were cast by working men and
women.
No sooner was Mayor Thompson
elected than he announced he would
surround himself with ''big" men and
we know that there are big men in
both the employing and the labor
ranks, yet in his conferences and ap-
pointments he has absolutely ignored
labor sympathizers, although they de-
posted more than 80 per cent of the
ballots that elected him.
Is this class consciousness or is it
plain ignorance?

men" selected by Mayor Thompson
