DODGE CITY
CHARTER MANDATE


st. Louis, Mo-, Jan. 27.-Trade un-
ionists are demanding that city Off
Gals comply with the new municipal
charter mandate that all city EN-
ployes shall receive the prevailing
rate of wages" Organized workers
feared favoring inserting union
scale Of wages" because of possible
court annuAmemnt, but during the
campaign the intent of the prevailing
rate of wages" provision was thor
oughly understood by citizens. The
legislative committee of the Central
Trades and Labor Union is now urg-
ing city officials to appropriate money
sufficient to comply with the law, but
the plan is given little support. The
committee reorts to the central
body:
Statements have been made by the
city officials that the increases de-
manded by organized labor will In
crease the city pay roll between 15 and
20 per cent, or approximately 500, 900
and that an increase of cents ma
be necessary in the tax rate to meet
this advance. In this connection we
wish to note that these officials did
not show any conscientious scruples
in accepting the handsome increases
in salaries given them by the new city
charter"

HEART DISEASE
ON INCREASE

Washington, Jan. 28- Deaths from
heart disease are increasing steadily
, and deaths from tuberculosis are
showing a decline, reports Director
Harris of the federal census bureau.
From 1904 to 1914 the deaths from
tuberculosis in all its forms fell from
2007 to 1853 per 1000, the decline
being continuous from year to year.
This is drop of more than rs per
cent Prior to 1904 the rate had fluc-
tuated, starting at 201.9 in 1900. Even
yet tuberculosis has the gruesome dis
tinction of causing more deaths an
nually than any other form of bodily
illness except heart disease, and over
40 per cent more than all the external
causes-accidents homicides, and sui
cides combined. Steady decline In
the rate from tuberculosis is ascribed
by the census to a better understand
ing of the laws of health and the nee
essity for fresh air.

LABOR TEMPLE
DEDICATED

Dallas, Tex, Jan. 28-A large as
semblage was present at the dedica-
ton of the Dallas labor temple, which
consists of three stories and a base
ment. The chief address was made
by Governor James 3. Ferguson, who
referred to the gains made by organ
lied labor and who made an eloquent
plea for organization of the workers.
He said: 'fAs i have done before, l
advise every laboring man to join
some union. If you think you are
smarter than the average laboring
man, join the union and help improve
it; if you think you are not as smart
as the average .laboring man, then
come into the union and let the union

Ohio Miners
Demand Increase

Columbus, Ohio. Jan. 27.-At the
convention of Ohio miners it was
agreed to demand 10 per cent ad-
vance on machine and pick mining
and a uniform inside and outside
wage scale with a proportionate in
crease in the rate. It was decided to
insist on the run-of-mine basis, which
means. that coal must be weighed be.
fore it is screened. The miners Sc
cured the passage of the Green anti
screen law, but this was practically
invalidated by the next legislature
when II passed the Gallagher bill.
These workers, however, have enforc-
ed the run-of-mine basis through their
local unions.
To prevent discrimination, the con-
vention declared that when men are
employed they shall be accepted in
the order they apply for work.

Australian Workers
Must Rely On Unions

Sydney, New South Wales, Aus
traha, Jan 28-'Tt is to the record of
unioniSm in New South Wales We can
turn with the greatest satisfaction, "
says the Australian Worker in lead
ing editorial on the silver jubilee of
Australian trade unionism.
| The paper refers to advances made
by labor on the political field. but
when all this is granted" it continues,
there remains good grounds for dis
appointment with the results of labor
victories in New South Wales.
1.-THE election of a parliamentary la
Dor majority did not impress itself
upon us as a swift transition from
darkness into light. There was no
wonderful changes marking OF the la
Dor era from that which preceded it.
1T is, perhaps, too soon. Political
power is not a magician's wand, turn
ing the howell into a palace and the
swineherd into a prince.
'lnjustices which have grown up In
the process of the ages, and have be-
come entangled with every relation OF
life, are not to be abolished with a
Hey, prestol' A tyranny which iden-
titles itself wit hevery social institu-
ton, and clothes itself with the home
ly virtues and the religious instincts.
is not easily broken down.
Labor ministers are but human
They are too apt to confound their
own elevation with the uplifting Of
the masses, and develop a frame of
mind which enables them to act as
though with their personal triumph,
the aim and object Of the labor move
ment were attained.
TN New South Wales this tendency
has hardened into a positive evil, No
wonder the ranks Of the workers are
torn with discomfort. No wonder the
unions carry resolutions of condemna-
ton. No wonder, where men and Wo-
men who have fought and suffered for
tbs ideals OF the movement are gath
cred together, the state ministry is
greeted with suAen eyes and mutter-
ing voices"
The Australian Worker, however, is
optimistic, and declares that the cause
for ejubilation is the advance Of trade
unionism. Says the editor:
1T is to the record OF unionism I'M
New South Wales we can turn with
the greatest satisfaction. Labor's sill
yer jubilee in that state is an event
which the organized working class can
celebrate with pride in their splendid
solidarity and in the justice OF their
cause.
1T is that solidarity which will
safeguard the labor movement and
preserves it from the elements OF de-
generation. -A-
1T Is that solidarity and that pas
sion for pustice, which win purge 1t OF
base intriguers and self-seeking ad-
yenturers in the field Of politics. and
lead it onward. despite the Virulence

friends. to the contamination Of its
desires.

One fine day, years back, when bust
ness men began to wake up to the fact
that horse trading methods in business
transactions didn't help to build a per-
manent business structure, wise man
took his quill in hand and delivered
himself of the following forceful truth:
"A satisfied customer is the best ad-
vertisement" We go little further
in our conception of what constitutes
q satisfied customer; and to insure
satisfaction, we say to each one: "Our
work is positively guaranteed, and at
any time We stand ready to make
same good"
but until we see your mouth, we
cannot tell what we can do for YOU
