our friends. We shall have space for
about 400 students in our night
classes and about 200 children in our
Sunday school Our musical and
singing school have unlimited pos
sibiities for growth.
We are at the beginning Of our I
real constructive work. We are lay
ing the cornerstone of the first CO.
operative labor school, or, who can
tell, may be, college or university. It
is a big task. Our enemies will do
anything in their power to defeat our
attempt. They have done their
worst in the past. They spread false
rumOrs that the institute was giving
up the fight. They attempted to
bride the active officers with jobs.
They warned owners against selling
us their houses. They famed the
flame of religious hypocrisy and in
tolerance against US and did their
best to blacken the character and
discredit every one who was actively
engaged at the Workers Institute.
They have failed in their attempts.
The institute is stronger now than
ever before and we call upon our
friends and supporters to join us in
our work. We need teachers in our
evening classes, high school and Sun
day school. We have place for hun
dreds Of students in our different de-
partments. We need active members
to swell our treasury and carry the
message to 100000 members of or
gained labor of Chicago. The in
stitute will open in the new place on
the 18th of April with a big ceIebra-
ton, mass meeting and parade. We
expect all of our friends to be pres
ent. All together for self-reliant,
constructive labor activity on the

THE WORKERS INSTITUTE
HAS A NEW Finally the
Workers Institute has acquired
new home of its own, the first labor
school in the country to be owned,
managed and controlled by its own
members. And this great triumph
is accompanied by another still
greater Workers Institute was
endorsed unanimously at the general
meeting Of the Chicago Federation of
Labor as a real working class insti-
tuition, devoted to the interest of la
Dor and forming a valuable part and
parcel Of organized labor Of Chicago.
We, at the institute, recognize the
honor and grave responsibility i'm
posed upon us by these two events,
by the confidence placed in US by our
boys and girls who gave the money
for the building and by the endorse
ment of the greatest and most pro-
gressiVe labor body in the country.
For a year and a half we stood as
a bUlwark. against the subtle, but
perniciOUs influences of the Hebrew
Institute, pitting our pennies and
poor quarters against the millions of
Big Business and the spacious hall
and gymnasium built with their
tainted money.
1t was a hard, unequal fight. Often
we felt disheartened, ready to give
up the fight, especially when part of
the West Side radicals made peace
with the enemy and removed the
boycott that hung like a pail over
Jacob NJ. Loeb and his institution
But now the acquisition of our new
building and the endorsement opens
a new chapter in our history.

DIPLOMAT AS WELL AS SOLDIER

Gen. Hugh L. Scott is probably
the most unique character in the Unit
ed States army. In the days of the
Indian disturbances on the Western
frontier he gained distinction as an
Indian fighter, and as remarkable as
it might seem, later became the In
dams friend and counsellor. He is
familiar with their folklore and talks
their sign language.
Several years ago, when one of the
tribes went on the war path General
Scott was sent to the scene of the dis
turbanceS and after a few days of
friendly negotiations succeeded in
bringing about peace which the armed
forces of the state had been unable to
accomplish.
