Big Bill Haywood, leader and one of

purposes, pardoned from jail-even

Gov. Cats. while in the city yes
terday, visited the industrial school,
and after a friendly talk with the
superintendent and the scholars, went
with Miss Davis and number of the
girls to Silver Springs, where they
took ride on one of the boats for a
short distance down the river. The
governor has the interest of the
school at heart and a sincere good
will for all the children and they re-
ciprocate by giving him a warm well
come whenever he visits them. What
ever he may be in politics, Gov. Cats
is naturally a kindhearted man and
always shows the best side of his
character to those he can really and
unselfshly help. If he quit politics
altogether and settled down as the
pastor of some church in a quiet,
komelike community, we have no
doubt that he could do much good and
win and keep more sincere friends
than he can in the maelstrom of pub
lie affairs. where the best there is in
him is always exploited by those who
would use him for their selfish ends.

The Tampa Times sends the Star a
bill for years subscription, and has
the audacity to ask us to make good
the difference in the value of it and
the Star in advertising. AS we think
the Star is just as good as the Times
we don't see any difference and de-
cline to give it any advertising except
at regular rates. We don't mind say
ing however that the Times is the
best evening paper in the United
States and one of the most outspoken
and independent papers in Florida,
and anybody who subscribes to it
won't regret the expense.

OBSERVATIONS
Wise and Otherwise

Did you hear of the big accident at
Silver Springs Thursday evening
The wind blew up the river.
The happiest person in Ocala is the
fellow in whom the greatest ideas
shall burn the most ardently.
&&S
1t has been discovered that the rea-
son woman cannot keep secret, is
because of the innate generousness of
her nature.
A young man wastes time in tell
ing his best girl he is not worthy of
her. What's the use in telling any
body anything they already know?
1t is intellect that lends the first
touch of beauty to thought. The old
dame must be mighty selfish, since we
don't observe such of the latter scat
tered about.
Cupid is right up-to-date these
days, especially in Ocala, where he
uses an airplane, and with culver and
arrows sails through the blue ether,
dumb and blind. But we are not tell
ing the secrets of his flights, nor how
many hearts are on the wing.
%&&
There is not much difference. after
all, in the old days and the new. In
the past it was a terrible thing the
way the Indians scalped folks. But in
these down to the minute times peo-
pie are skinned every day and nobody
thinks anything about it.
A good one is being told on our
friend, Mr.. . Sometime ago a
counterfeit dime was wished upon
him, and try as he will, he can't seem
to get rid of it. His wife in confidence
to friend said: eff he'd go to church
it would be easy enough DONE"

OPTIMISTIC REPORT
OF TlMBERW0RKERS

Optimism is the keynote of re-
port for the month of April just
completed by Clair Covert, of Seat
tie, President Of the Internationa
Union of Timberworkers Following
are extracts from the report:
"The month of April brought
some important and beneficial
changes to our organization, the
most important of which was an
improvement in industrial condi-
tions. Many camps and mills have
resumed operations after having
been closed since the Christmas
holidays. The lumber industry is
beginning to get back on normal
basis and all indications are that il
will enjoy the greatest prosperity
in the next three years that it has
ever experienced.
II would like to bring before all
local unions the great Importance
of affiliating with the State Fed
erations of Labor in the various
States, and urge that those who are
not affiliated become affiliated at
once. We must play our part to the
limit in the great organized labor
movement.
indications are that the shingle
branch Of the industry will soon
become a great factor in our move
ment. Many of the old timers are
getting back into the industry and
the possibilities are good to thor
oughly organize the shingleweavers
again. The war was responsible
for retarding organization in this
branch of the industry
Wages in the lumber industry
have been reduced in some cases,
but for the most part we have been
successful in resisting reductions,
and we should now be able soon to
get back to the wages that prevail
ed last year. We can thank our
selves that we had union this
year. for if We had not had an or
ganization our wages would GER
tainly have been cut in half.
Il would like to say in conclu-
sion that it is up to every member
to get busy now and bring in new
member. We must increase our or
ganization 500 per cent this year,
and it will be a very easy matter
if all do their part.

to all trade unionists.
The trade-union movement is in
its very essence, comprehensive
plan Of cooperation, radiating as
it does from local unions through
entral Trades Councils, State Fed
erations of Labor and International
Unions into the American Fedora
tion of Labor.
One of the great departments of
the American Federation of Labor
is that which has for its object the
education of the workers to the
great factor they should be to cor
rect many existing industrial evils
and injustices through concentra-
ton of their purchasing power, the
Union Label Trades Department.
OF what avail is it to denounce
unfair employers by resolutions,
which so often fail of their object
for no other reason than our refu-
sal to withhold our patronage from
them. The very firms and corpora
tions we seek to have treat their
their employees fairly by exposing
unfairness on the one hand, we
make arrogant by purchasing their
output with money earned under
union conditions, on the other
hand.
This is not cooperation, but it is
inconsistence almost criminal, and
until we all come right down to
"brass tacks" and become union
members in fact as well as in name
by cooperating with our fellows in
every other trade, through the dis
eliminating power of purchase, we
are not going to make any notice.
able nor permanent progress.
Demand the union label, shor
card and working button at all
times, for no trade unionist has
any more moral right to purchase
non-union and sweat shop goods
than he has to take the place of d
fellow-worker on strike for better
conditions.
Be a real union man and gen
uine co-operator by always demand
ing the union label, shop card and
working button.
