union of his craft, which he did, and
we have Boot and Shoe Workers Union

baby organization is the Retail Grocery

and husky infant. At this writing they
have fifty members and are obtaining
conversions at every meeting.
Politics had great deal to do with
putting our central body in a rut. In
the past the labor leaders with political
ambition have apparently considered
their own success first, then the Assem-
blys. One of the first things we did
was to eliminate politics from the AS
sembly, and believe it has been great
factor in the measure of success that
has attended r efforts.
Union labor n my opinion must enter
the political field to obtain that which
rightfully belongs to them. The State
Federation of Labor is the proper place
for all politics, as l see it, and not the
central body. Anyone familiar with the

Pueblo Trades Assembly
Makes Progress in 1916
By WILLIAM H. YOUNG, Secretary

I'm giving this brief history of the
past year, it is not my purpose to
cast reflections on anyone. We
should all profit by past errors and
| shall state the facts as l have seen
them.
Labor Day, 1915, found organized labor
in Pueblo anything but organized, bick.
erings from without and chickering's from
within had greatly. weakened the move
ment.
Two Labor Day celebrations We're held
and naturally neither was success.
Many union men and their families re-
manned at home in preference to joining
in the split in labor ranks. 1t is not
necessary to cite the cause of the
trouble, and as usual where there are
two factions both claimed to be in the
right. The peacemaker and guiding hand
We're conspicuous by their absence. There
was no attempt to have a parade and
this was fortunate under the circum-
stances, for the 1915 parade would have
been woeful one.

to the ill-advised teamsters' strike of
history, the Pueblo Trades and Labor

Labor Unions Teach
Highest of Principles

The Inland Printer, journal devoted
to printing and allied industries, objects
to the position of religious paper in its
attack on organized labor, which it
claims, represents but one tenth of the
workers. The Inland Printer says:
we have vet to learn that the mem
bers of any union are so enslaved bv
their Officials that they are on the whole
unorganizcd masses. 1t cannot be said
that long work days, low wages, un-
healthful conditions and insecurity of
in the true sense of the word"
The Inland Printer editor suggests that
his opponent SHOULD mingle a little
practically with his cast interpre-
tation OF the rights of men to do as they
like, for it should surely be clear, even
to one totally ignorant of industrial con-
ditions, that if labor unionists consented
to work side by side with free laborers
who would undercut them, their proper
organizations which it is their (the
unionists' duty to form, could not pos
sibly exist. 1t almost seems n logical
corollary to their argument that free
worker ought to be allowed to go about
and do lust as he likes, even if he has
the smallpox
Gas a fact. nine -tenths of the charges
arise from the fact that the principles
of trade unionism are applied too mar
rowlv. They are the same principles of
brotherhood and of cooperation which
are preached but too seldom practiced by
the churches, and applied, tho imperfect
ly, by the various fraternal bodies"

WAR RELICS ARE
 PUT ON DISPLAY

Relics from the war zone, but not di- rect, and not from across the ''big pond" are what J. Blach & Sons have on dis play in their show windows. Old swords and pistols used in our own civil war are shown, together with copies of Les lies Magazine for Women, published in 1865, during the time when the war be- tween the north and south ragged, and a newspaper, characteristic of the old style of journalism, published under the cap ton of the Daily Citizen at Vicksburg, Miss, July 22, 1863 A programme in the form of advertisement of Growers thea tre, with John Wilkes Booth, the slayer of Abraham Lincoln, standing out in prominence as an actor of the highest ability, is on display. Schrapnel of diff ferent calibre may be seen here also, but the most striking of all are the Confed- crate uniforms of gray that will be worn by hundreds of heroes of the south at the coming reunion to be held in Bir- mingham in May.
 Other relics will be added to the win dow before the coming of the army in gray.
 The following editorial comment ex- tracted from the Daily Citizen, published at Vicksburg, Miss, July ?, 1S63 shows the spirit of the times when the Citi- ben was published:
 We are indebted to Major Gillespie for a steak of Confederate beef, alias meat. We have tried 1t and can assure ou friends that if rendered necessary, they need have no scruples at eating the meat It is sweet, savory and tender and as long as we have a mule left, we are satisfied our soldiers will be content to subsist on it."

URGE REGULATION
 OF STREET TRAFFIC
Civic Board Passes ResOlu- tions and Submits Them
 to the Commissioners
By MRS. SIDNEY M. ULLMAN

Who but the women of community can so deeply feel the necessity of the enforcement of the laws for the protec- tion of the pedestrian?
 With this in mind the Womans Civic board called a meeting of the women of Birmingham yesterday, asking that they pass resolutions urging the enforce ment of laws covering the safety of the citizens of the city
 The meeting was in no way called to discourage jitneys or to blame any per son, but to call attention to the neces- sity for protection.
 Resolutions were passed at the meeting and then read before the commission; the hearing was full of interest and hope for better conditions.
 A motion was made to request the commission to set aside safety zones for the children skaters. These zones will be closed to traffic during certain hours of the day, and suitable supervision pro- vided.
 Any person passing Highland avenue and many other busy thoroughfares in the afternoon after school hours, will readily recognize the necessity Tor action along these ines.
 The resolutions submitted read as fol- lows:
 "Whereas, Recent accidents have aroused the people of Birmingham to the sense of their responsibility for the pro- lection of the lives of the citizens.
 And whereas, The people of Birming- ham are in constant danger of accident from reckless driving of vehicles.
 And whereas, The pedestrians have the right of way and this right should be fully recognized.
 Therefore be it resolved, That the board of commissioners are hereby re- ouested to amend section ?, article B of ordinance Mo- 173-C. by striking out word fire and inserting city, and to further zee that the ordinance covering the speed regulations in the city limits be rigidly enforced.
 s.And be is further resolved. That the board of commissioners be requested to further amend said ordinance, No. 173-C. by adding that all drivers of automo- Eiles, carrying passengers for commercial purposes, be required to furnish bond, amount to be fixed by the board of com missioners. N
 And be it resolved, That we request the board of commissioners to enact a criminal ordinance to include a heavy fine for the first offense and covering auspension of those drivers found guilty of an infraction of said ordinance for necond offense.

PHONE CORPORATION
 ||S UNWILLING ID LET CITY EXAMINE BOOKS
Says It Would Be Unfair While Barber Has Suit Against Company in
 Local Courts

Montgomery, March 14-(special.) )-Ths petition of the city commission of Bir- mingham for authority to name an sac- countant to examine the books of tho Southern Bell Telephone and Telegraph company, with a view to determining whether or not discriminatory rates are charged was argued before the state pub lie service commission today, and attor- neys for the two sides were given 10 days in which to file written briefs in the case.
 The telephone company resisted the city's petition principally on the ground that suit, filed by Commissioner Bar Der, is now pending against the com pany, and that an examination of the companys books by an accountant ap- pointed by the city would be prejudicial to the cause of the corporation. The telephone company maintained that the public commission has authority to desig- nate an accountant to examine the books of the company, but that it would De manifestly unfair to allow the city of against the company, to name such an accountant.
 Maj. R. E. Steiner, who represented the telephone company, told the public ser vice commission that his company had sufficient faith in the several state eX- aminers of public accounts to allow them to review the company's books. This statement was also made ~by J. Hunt Chipley of Atlanta, general counsel for the company. and J. Q. Smith of Birming- ham, district attorney.
 UNABLE TO AGREE
 These attorneys agreed that the tele- phone company was willing to throw oren its books and accounts to any ac- countant that might be named by the public service commission; that this ac- counting should take place under the di rection and control of the public serv- ice commission. and that the telephone company would lend its aid toward the fullest possible investigation.
 M. M. Ullman, city attorney for Bir- mingham. declined to accede to this proposition. He made an able argument in behalf of the city's petition, and tried to show that the rates as now charged by the telephone company are discrimi- natory and unjust.
 The public service commission was un. able to take up at todays session the petition of the Jacksonville Light and Power company for permission to sell its property to the Alabama Power company, owing to the fact that the pe- tition had not been sufficiently adver- tised. For this reason, the case was postponed until April 14

TUSCALOOSA

Tuscaloosa, March 4.-(Special.)-The Warrior Guards of Tuscaloosa, under command of Capt. w. A. Collier, today attended the funeral of Fred Griffin, the boy hero of the Columbus, N. M fight with the Mexicans. The body reached here this morning over the Alabama Great Southern railroad and was in tered at Cottondale. A large crowd of friends, relatives and citizens of Tusca- loosa attended the funeral. All honor was accorded the boy, who gave his life in defense of his fellows. Three volleys were fired over his grace by the local military company and Taps" were sounded in his honor.
 The Associated Press dispatches state that young Griffin, who was barely 20 years of age. according to his father, was on sentry duty the night of the Villa raid and that he was first to see the approach inf Mexicans on whom he opened fire. His prompt action held the Mexicans until the alarm was given and probably saved the town from being slaughtered. Griffin himself was mortally wounded in short time, but 1t is said that before giving up his life he killed two of the Mexicans.
