gressives of all kinds who have despaired of
obtaining reforms through the machinery of
the old parties, controlled by dominant busi-
interests.
The plan of organization differs widely from the
plan of the Nonpartisan league, largely as a re-
suit of the fact that different conditions confront
the organization of the workers. The workers.
league already has framework which to build,
the various craft unions. The Nonpartsan league

individual AS result of this the unions them
selves will be the basis of the league
There 500 individual craft unions in Min
nesota. Each Of the unions will enroll as body,
paying nominal for the membership, based
on its own membership. Each of these unions elect
delegates to the general council. The number of
delegates allotted to each of the unions varies All
unions are given delegate, but in the larger
unions delegate will be elected for each 100 men,
bers, but in the number of delegates
from single union exceed three.
This general council forms the governing body
of the workers league. That body will hold the
league conventions and will ndorse candidates.
Because Of the unwieldness of such large or
ganization, however, there is behind this general
council another smaller body, the executive council

combine for their mutual interest.
Most significant is the strength
shown by labor when it was concerted
upon political object. Shortly before
the New Ulm convention a special
congressional election was made nee
essary in st. Paul by the death of
the incumbent. Both the Democrats
and the Republicans nominated can
didates who framed high-sounding
platforms to catch votes. Running
against them was Oscar E. Keller, a
labor man and then st. Paul city
commissioner. Supported by the work
ers Of the city and running on plat
form that included public ownership
of public utilities, Keller was elected
by big plurality over both old-party
opponents. Labor had not yet or
ganized its political league, but the
political solidarity of labor had been
attained to such an extent that it
easily won by concentrating its
strength.

Minnesota workers have learned
from long and bitter experience that
they have nothing to hope for from
the old parties. Lobbies have been
maintained in the state capitol at
every session, but opposing them have
been other lobbies, more powerful,
with more money, who helped defeat
almost all the laws proposed by the
workers. =
The last session was typical. State
industrial insurance has come to be
recognized in many states of the
Union as necessity to insure the
worker against loss by reason of any
injury in the pursuit of his employ
ment. Nowhere are such laws consid-
cred radical" but they are opposed
by big insurance companies, who make
millions Of dollars through liability
insurance for employers. To obtain
redress for injury sustained through
his work the workman must start suit.
The insurance company shoulders the
suit and fights it through the courts.
If the workman should win, much Of
the money he RECEIVERS must be paid to
lawyers in fees. If he loses, although
the employer is morally responsible,
the worker receives no compensation
whatever. Under state insurance,
such accidents are adjusted by state
commissioners according to fixed
scale. There is no red tape. no de-.
lay, no lawyers fees to- pay. The
worker is paid fixed sum. fund;

UNORGANIZED WORKERS
ARE JOINING LEAGUE

Organization of the political
league has now begun in earnest.
Not only the organized workers
are joining, but unorganized
workers who recognize the need
for new deal in politics also are
coming into the association. A
campaign is now going on among
the labor unions and among work
ers outside the unions. Adhering

than the candidates of any political faction, owing
allegiance to big business interests.
The change in the attitude of the workers has
been of rapid growth Last year labor almost
everywhere depended upon persuasion to obtain
beneficial legislation Next year they will enact
rather than request, the legislation they want.
The decision of the organized workers of Min
nesota took definite form at the annual convention
of the State Federation of Labor at New Ulm
last July. BY an overwhelming vote the delegates
at the convention adopted resolution to make la
Dor active force in state politics. There
ratified the plan to organize the Minnesota Work

utive committee was appointed and a platform
adopted. The most noteworthy part of that plan,
next to the overturning of the traditional policy
of labor, is that which proposes political union
