Hall ORGANIZED I
HlbbINC UNIONS
President, State Federation Of
Labor Did Good Work on
Ranges.

E. G. Hall president Of. the state
federation of labor. has been on the
range only a few months, but it is
doubtful IL any labor organizer on
the range has been so successful as
the federation president in organiz-
ing the unorganized workers.
The year 1919 was a. great year
for labor in Hibbing, and the major
portion of the success of that year
has been due to President Hall.
Perhaps, the greatest and first or
ganiatiozn work done by Hall was
the organization of the Hibbing
Central Labor union. Heretofore,
labor in Hibbing had the members,
but with the exception of the build
ing trades, there was no concerted
action. The Central Labor union is
now one Of the strongest labor Or
CARNATIONS in this part Of the state.
and its power is already being felt
in certain quarters.
Had Hall only organized the Gen.
trail. Labor union he could have
called his work on, the range a sue
cess, but in addition, he organized
the bakers union, the meat cutters
union, the hosting engineers union,
the chauffeurs' union and the retail
clerks union in the few months
that he has spent on the range. All
these organizations are now thriv-
ing unions and credit to the labor
movement on the .range.-Mesaba

ago on the labor ticket, is the only
present member of the council as
sured of reelection. He likely will
lead the ticket this year.
A referendum vote now Is being
taken at regular meetings of all the
unions In St. Paul to select the
four labor candidates for council
men. Nine names have been SUBJ
mitted to the unions. The four re-
ceiving the highest vote will be the
candidates.
About $4,000 votes will be cast by
union men in the referendum. This
vote will go solid in the election
for the candidates named. AS $4,000
normally are enough to win an cleo
ton it can easily be seen how much
power labor will exercise in the
election.
The vote will be completed earlv
In February. A committee now is
visiting union meetings each night
and taking the secret ballots, which
then are locked in safe and will
not be opened until all unions have
voted.
A campaign committee of 200
members, representing every union
In the city. is handling the political
situation from the, la Dor side. I'M
portant actions of the committee,
such as selection Of candidates, are
submitted to the union for final de-
clsaon through referendum. In
this way every action is known to
be that Of the majority of union
members and any chances are re-
moved for charges that the COM
mittee is yielding to influences not
representative Of the rank and file
Of labor.
While the St. Paul campaign is
the center. of attraction now, work
Is continuing throughout Minnesota
of organizing the league and getting
ready to take part in the. state cam
paign and other municipal elections,
as we'll as contests in legislative and
congressional districts.

UNIONS NOT NARROW;
-DREAMERS HELPFUL

Dreamers serve a good purpose
in the trade union movement be-
cause they assist in stimulating
thought and counteracting inertia,
writes President Perkins of the
Cigar Makers international union,
in the official magazine of that
organization: i
The cigar makers executive we'll
says that trade unionists neither
fear nor shirk from those who hold
adverse opinions" and that the door
of trade unionism is open to every
! man and woman who works for
| wages.
'No organization, including labor,
I is perfect or can become perfect"
| ne continues. I'm the process of
evolution that which seemed an
ideal organization or state, If
reached, would become old-fash-
Toned and unsatisfactory. It is we'll
that this is true and it will always
% true SO long as hope and ambi-
ton last, and both will proba bly,
last forever The natural evolution
brings with it new ideas and in
creased intelligence and fresh
hopes" p"
President Perkins then gives this
advice to those who would divide
workers through secession or dual
ism:
THE real red-blooded man gets
inside and stays inside of the ranks
OF organized labor and there fights
man-fashion against what he thinks
are wrongs, and in advocacy of his
ideals: The self-styledA progressive
is often too short sighted. and i'm
patient with the: evolutionary proc
ess and what he thinks. is slow
progress and, is inclined to rush off
and start something new-a dual
organization. This something new
invariably fails, chiefly because it
attracted the erratically inclined
who never want to stay hitched, and
they then start out with something
new again, while the solid, SUBJ
stantial, plodding, evolutionary, con-
struct1ve trade union movement
continues to improve. The con-
structlve trade union is always re-
liable, ready to sacrifice, willing to
meet the other fellow halfway, and
always ready to fight for principle,
Justice and right. Courageous men
stand up and fight within the or
gan1zation along constructive, evo-
lut1onary lines: the coward runs
away. He 1abors under the mis-
taken idea that the way to build
up is. to tear down."

VAN Lear and LAWSON V|S|T|N
NORTH MPA|GN|NC FOR LEAGUE
Secretaries Of Political and Economic Branches Of Labor Move
men Devote Week to Ranges, Duluth and Two Harbos Ex-
e plain Progress Made By Workingmen In State Politics.

Thos. Van Lear, secretary Of the
Minnesota Working Peoples Non
Partisan league, and G. w. Lawson
State Federation Of Labor, are
speaking this week in the several
range towns. They are scheduled
to be in Duluth Friday and in Two
Harbors Saturday.
Van Lear and Lawson are ex-
planning to the workingmen the
purpose of the league and the prog
ress that is being made in organic
ing the workers politically through
out the state. 1t is said that two
thirds of the Duluth unions have
directly affiliated with the league
the remaining two-thirds soon to
be members.
st. Paul is the center of activity
for workingmen in politics. The
branch in that city has lined up to
make a stiff fight in the city cam
paign now under way there. The
platform calls for a cleanup of old
gang politicians, grafters and hang
ers-on who have been having a free
hand in the administration of the
city government.
A constructive program also is
advanced for civic improvements by
which all the people will benefit
and not a few self-selected cliques.
Every indication now, 10 weeks
before the city primary election and
four months before the final cleo
ton, is that the workers ticket will
win.
All talk points to the fact that
five Of the present six councilmen
will be defeated and their places
taken by four men chosen as candi-
dates from the ranks Of organized
labor and the other places filled by
men running with the Endorsement
of labor
Commissioner J. M. Clancy, for
mer president of the st. Paul

kiss a girl.

Jack Hardy, former sailor, living
in New York, who advertised that he
was ready to sell his services for the
rest of his life to the highest bidder
who had n career of useful adventure
to offer, has received two bids.
A woman offered him 5000 to be
her bodyguard on a trip to Egypt
providing the trip was successful"
Jack doesn't think he'll take this, not
being certain what the woman regards
as successful trip to Egypt. The
other offer was from man and his
wife who described themselves as the
wealthiest couple in Scranton, Pa,
wanted Jack to help hunt for their If
teen-year-old son with $1,000 and
adoption as the reward.
That is more promising, the young
man thinks, but he has reached no de-
cision yet. He is twenty-five years
