To BEGIN CAMPAIGN
FOR USE Of LABEL
w. E. Towne Addresses Meeting
of Allied Printing Trades
Council.

The regular monthly meeting of the
Allied Printing Trades Council was
held last Monday evening.
w. E. Towne, president of the
typographical union, addressed the
delegates in regard to starting a cam
paign to increase the demand for and
use of the printing trades label. He
offered various suggestions and point
ed out ways in which to accomplish
this, and urged the members to dis
tribute literature and undertake other
methods of acquainting the business
men with the advantages gained by
using the emblem on their printing.
AT the present time there is a
great deal of printing being sent out
of the city, which, by little co-opera-
ton between the members of the print
ing trades and the proprietors, could
be kept here, thereby resulting in in
creased prosperity for all," said Mr..
Towne.
The council decided to begin an
active campaign along these lines.
Oliver Quick was elected to fill the
vacancy in the office of vice president.

10 PER CENT INCREASE
FOR DOCK WORKERS

Every employe, superintendents ex-
cepted, of every coal dock at the Head
of the Lakes will receive an increase
in wages Of 10 per cent, beginning
May 1, this year.
The announcement comes simul-
taneously from every dock company
operating here. Machinists, common
laborers and everyone employed on
the coal docks, superintendent ex-
cepted, will be affected by the raise.
The decision of the dock owners
will affect nearly 1000 workmen.
There are twenty coal docks in Du-
luth and Superior and the average
force at each one is about 200 men.
At present the minimum wage paid
at the coal docks is SO per day. The
lowest. salaried common labor, then,
will be getting $3.50 a day after

Then there is the Twenty-eighth

portion of the city we find that with
but four exceptions every district from

portion of Proctor lying in the City
of Duluth and composed exclusively
of workingmen, went dry by vote Of
21 to 80. e
I'm the central portion of the city
where the floating population is, and
tn hotel and saloon influence is the
strongest the vets received their larg-
G. vote, but only in a few instances
did they carry any Of these precincts
by large majority. The wet margin
was narrow in most of the districts.
"The vote indicates that union labor
largely voted against the saloon. Out
in Morgan Park, Gary and New Du-
luth, where there is no union labor in
fluence, the vets made better show
in, but Morgan Park, which was ex-
pected to go two to one wet, was dis
appointments to the vets. The vote
there was 266 wet to 1873 dry.
Taking the result as a whole it was
the workingmen of Duluth who voted
to keep Duluth dry and if Mr.. Shartel
will but take the pains to analyze the
returns he~ will be forced to this con-

HOW LABOR VOTED
At LAST ELECTION

The following communication was
received by The Labor World from e.
N. Edes, a prominent Socialist and
candidate for mayor at the last elec-
ton:
''In an interview in The Herald
Wednesday, Mr.. Shartel, chairman of
the License Regulation committee, Is
quoted as saying that the result of
the vote on the liquor ordinance indi-
Gated that the workingmen of Duluth
are against prohibition. Mr.. Shartel
evidently had not at the time ana
lyzed the election returns very care
fully.
Il beg leave to call his attention to
the fact that in most instances dis
tricts inhabited by Workingmen voted
strongly against the ordinance. The
First and Second districts in Lake.
side and Lester Park are composed
largely of wage earners and salaried
men. The combined vote Of these
t districts was 1T wet and 503
dry. There are but few rich men in
either of these districts.
''The Seventh district out in Wood
land. not at Hunters Park, is strong
Workingman's district and it went dry
by a vote Of AZ to 123
'"The Fourteenth district located at
Ninth avenue East and above Fourth

PLUMBERS To GET
WAGE INCREASE

Indications are that the demands
of the Plumbers union for a wage
increase of 7H cents an hour will be
granted before May 1, and the threat
ened strike averted.
There are about forty members in
the Plumbers union, and they have
ben receiving 621 cents an'hour with
time and one-half for overtime. They
have had no increase in wages for ten
years, and in view of the fact that
other branches Of the building trades
have been given raises lately, together
with the higher cost of living, there
is sufficient reason for the demands.

ERzBERCER POLICY
ROUSES GERMANY

Berlin, Aug. Accommodating on the
interview given by Matthias Erzberger
leader of the Clerical center in the
German reichstag, to a Zurich editor
last week when the deputy was quot
ed as saying that if he could talk to
Premier Lloyd George and Foreign
Secretary Balfour he could reach an
understanding regarding peace of a
few hours, the Vossiche Zeitung says:
1--WE desire to protest most strenu.
ously against having the impression
go abroad that the Erzberger state
ments are symptomatic of German set
timent.
1--WE especially protest against such
utterances being made at time when
the well nigh deserted foreign Office
is prevented from promptly and thor
oughly disowning Erzbergers politics
Cor it is possible that an impress
sion should be created abroad that
Erzberger is but foreshadowing the
coming politics of Wilhelmstrasse."
