Anniversary Of Organization

March 20. 1902. Machinists' union,
No. 274, was organized by w. E. Nc
Even, then organizer for the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor. On We'd
nesday evening the members of the
union celebrated the nineteenth an
niversary of .:the: organization of the
local., Two of the charter members,
Frank Booren and: Andrew Barr, were
present. John p. Jensen, president
of the union presided and gave a
brief history of the local ! ~: 55::.a'
Mr.. Jensen traced the work of the
local through it's many vicissitudes.
He then presented Mrs. E. Hall and
her sweet little daughter, Winnifred,
who entertained the audience with
a violin and piano selection, Miss Win

grace and sweet: melody. The audi

WARD-CETCHE ELL
BUSH CROWD TO
SHOOT UP TOWN
Going TO Have All Their Fun
Before Election, for They Will
Be mourneTs After.

Hurrah! Hurrah! Wave the bloody
shirt! Rem ember Libby prison! Don't
forget the Maine! Save the G.. o. P!
These are the issues of the local
political campaign so far as the Lin
coin club. Duluth's new Tammany, is
concerned. At least they would appear
to be the issues from the character of
the stuff the club and it's several
aliases are pulling off.
They've gone back to normally all
right. They've gone back to the old
days Of firing the enthusiasm of the
voters. when a small group of wire
pullers and special privilege: seekers
sat in hotel room. looking on and
smiling cynically, while the enthusi-
astic voters marched by, burning
Standard oil in the torches they car
ried and shouting: Down with mon
opoly"
Here it is: There is to be an auto
parade, banners, horns, flags, pyro-
technics, costumes and speeches. 1T
will be regular old-time get-together
with plenty of noise and pep" The
American Legion band will lead the
parade after which there will be dane
ing. 1t will all happen in the West
End where the workers live and. the
JOY makers from the East End, ele-
santly gowned, will come down to
mingle with the proletarians.
That's real democracy for you, the
kind Of democracy that should con-
tinue 365 days year. but it won't. It
will only happen before election. and
after that until the next campaign
the class-consciousness Of the rich
will manifest itself in their voting,
during labor disputes and in all in
stances where the interests and wel-
fare of the workers are concerned, aa
| it always has.
The big "old-time'' rally will be
held in. the interest of the Lincoln
| clubs candidates, Ward-Getchell-
Bush. 1t will cost a lot Of money. No
candidate is permitted to spend more
than $500 in the campaign. Each has
already expended for campaign: pur-
poses the amount legally permitted.
The question now is, "Who is put
ting up the Jack for the fireworks to
be shot off Saturday night?" That is
not an improper question to ask. for
few men contribute money to g. poll
teal campaign without the hope Of
getting something back.
| 1t is not fair to be cruel. Let them
have their fun while they have their
chance and while the shouting is good.
The workers will not be deceived. 1t
is too late in the day. They under
stand the hypocricy of the whole
thing, and they will not be misled or
deceived by this sudden display OF
elegance and high-priced automobil
in their. midst. "Mohammed may be
brought to the mountain, but the
mountain cannot be brought to Mo-
hammed.'
The commoners will look on with
pity Saturday night. but on Wednes-
day following there will be another
great rally; it will be Of the plain
folks; there will be few automobiles
but there will be an army of happy
workers on foot, singing songs Of
praise for the election of Snively
Phillips and Merritt

w. E. McEwen, who was the guest
Of the union. was called upon TO ad-
dress the meeting. He referred to the
difficulty he experienced in getting
the machinists together. They were
underpaid, the average workman be-
ing paid at the rate Of rs cents an
hour. He told of the first strike and
referred humorously to some of the
things that happened at the time. He
urged the women to assist their hus-
bands in fighting the great battle of
labor, now confronting us.

''0pen Shop" Crowd Gets
Through With Then.

The situation in the building trades
has not been materially changed dur
ing the week, except that a few
strikebreakers have been engaged, but
as most of them are proving incom-
petent they are not retained very
long.
The Bricklayers' union reports that
there are five non-union "bricklayers"
at work who were imported here. An
other bricklayer, Dan Smith, brother
of James Smith Of Mcleod & Smith,
has deserted the union and joined
the small army of social Outcasts In
labor circles.
1t is also reported that there are
on hand a number of non-union
painters ready to take the jobs of
union men in the event of reduc-
ton in wages in the painting trade.
The painters contract expires today.
They will not submit to a reduction
without a fight.
The unemployment situation Is Sc
rious enough in Duluth without
bringing moro workmen here. Most
of those who do come are incompe
tent. They work for a few hours
and are discharged. Then they are
thrown on their own resources tosadd
to our army of unemployed.
Three men hired as strikebreakers
walked into the Associated Charities
for help the other day. They were
shipped to Duluth, worked a few
hours, were discharged and then
sought local charity for relief.
Two others reported at the Rip
saw office, said they were switchmen
but had hired out for building work.
They were given jobs as sheet metal
workers. They lasted five hours and
we're discharged as incompetent. They
sought redress from the Builders Elk
change, where it's imported secretary
is said to be protected by a big Danish
gunman from Milwaukee.
Mr.. Armstrong refused to do any,
thing for them and advised the men
to beat it back to Chicago. They had
no money to make the trip and were
advised by the Builders Exchange
secretary to walk.
The chief gunman in Duluth is
said to be a man named Blaine, who
represents the Russell Detective
Agency of Chicago. The activities OF
such agencies are being revealed in
series of articles now running in
The Labor World.
