When he inGited deathleS verses

And set the scene drab as hearses

Though winds as he remarked were wans
About the sere and naked woods.
There is a season more unaing
In its array OF somber goods,
And though November rain was falling
When Bryant took his pen in hand
His melancholy stuff was Stalling
Or else he didn't understand
For ingrown grief seek not November.

And all the thoughts remember
Pertain 10 brighter seasons past;
For autumn and its chilling brecIes,

Street Car Men Win

Atlanta, Ga.-The Georgia Railway
and Power company has abandoned
it's anti-union attitude and has reached
an agreement with its organized
motormen and conductors. The COM
pany's opposition to union labor has
been the cause of much turmoil dur
ing the past three years. The COM
pany officials, however, have con-
cluded that strikes do not pay and
they have promised to cease victim
izing trade unionists. A definite wage
scale has been accepted. Rates range
from 35 cents an hour for the first
three months service to 40 cents an
hour after one years service. Wages
for employees other than motormen and
conductors has been referred to the
national war labor board.

WOODMAN'S WARNING

C. w. Woodman, for a number of
years a representative of the Inter
national Typographical Union, later
labor commissioner of Texas, for
several months has been connected
with the United States department of
labor as a mediator and conciliator.
His work has taken him to many Sec
tions of the United States and has
enabled him to form conclusions on
the present readjustment period that
are of value. In recent statement
he says:
Right here let me give you a
thought: The big captains of indus
try are going to try and unscramble.
the big organizations labor has form
ed, reduce wages and make labor
more dependent than ever. A fictitious
depression will be brought on if they
are permitted to have their way.
Naturally there will be short time
after the big factories close when
work will be scarce, but that will be
overcome by the demand for many
things that are really needed in every
day life. That hiatus we may expect,
and then is when the savings of our
people in Liberty bonds and thrift
stamps will come handy. y l know
that better day is coming than any
of us dreamed of before the war, if
we, the men Of labor, stand together
as trade unionists and cut the fools
and dreamers-make them stand aside
with their fool ideas. The world is
going to be~a place for practical men
as leaders. All the "isms" of the
world have proven a failure and
fallacy, except the ism of unionism.

National War Labor Board informing
him that wage rate governing the

national organizations, central bodies
or local unions, and they should be
very careful to express the opinion
of the organizations they represented,
rather than their own individual opin-
ions. He also warned the delegates
that the strike was the weapon of last
resort and should be used only when
all other methods had been exhausted.
The chairman stated that invita-
tions had been sent to organizations
affiliated with the American Fedora
ton of Labor, the four railroad
Brotherhoods and the Amalgamated
Garment Workers.
Mr.. w. Bourke Cochran was next
introduced and the vast audience arose
to its feet and accorded him well
come that is not often witnessed in
labor meetings.
Mr.. Cochran spoke for one hour,
and was repeatedly applauded as he
pointed out the injustices of the law
as administered by those who were
pledged to uphold the law, and when
he said, "the masses have never been
vicious and the classes have seldom
failed to be-" it threw his vast audi
ence into an uproar.
He was followed by delegate John
H. Walker who closed brilliant ad-
dress with the following declaration:
II believe this convention can free
Tom Mooney. l believe he is going
to be free, anyhow, because the au-
thorities are afraid to keep him in
Jail much longer"
An election for permanent chair
man was then held, and Ed. Nolan
as elected. Jas. Maurer was elected
vice chairman. E. B. Ault, of Seattle,
was elected permanent secretary.
A motion by Robert E. Graham, Of
the Richmond, Ind, Central Trades
Council that no business be taken up
by the convention until the Mooney
case was settled was carried unani-
mously.
Telegrams of felicitation from all
parts of the country, and a letter
from members of the Italian Labor
Mission, were then read.
Frank P. Walsh was expected to
address the meeting; but John F'itz-
patrick read a telegram advising Of
his inability to be present.
The earnestness of purpose dis
played by each individual delegate is
proof that the object for which this
nation wide gathering was called will
be accomplished, and that justice will
finally be accorded to the innocent
man who was selected as a victim to
satisfy the hate and spite of the
mighty money power arrayed against
organized labor.
