President, Cigar Makers Interna-
tional Union
BY c. W. PERKINS

Perfect accord and cooperation
must prevail in the labor movement
and upon the economic field of en-
deavor if we are to obtain the best
and really worthwhile results. This
is as true in our trade unions as it
is with any given piece Of machinery.
A locomotive cannot work to capa-
city if any part of its integral make
up is out of order and not function
ing properly. The same is true of
all other machines.
A locomotive to work properly and
to capacity must have the attention
and cooperation of the engineer, the
fireman, the conductor, and the train
dispatcher. Unless all these elements
and forces coordinate and work in
harmony the wonderfully constructed
and powerful locomotive becomes inn
potent and often dangerous.
The foregoing principles are APP
plicable and just as necessary for
successful achievement in our trade
union movement in industry, and in
the accomplishment of results. The
employer, the superintendent, the
should work in harmony if the best
one of these elements that go to

After nominations Of the three
cities had been made a flood of
oratory was let loose for over
an hour. At its close President
Short divided the floor into three
sections, and asked the conven-
tion to choose the banner of its
favorite city. With cheers and
cries Of Aberdeen" a majority
surged to It's banner. Kelso, see
ing itself the weakest, added its
strength also, and Tacoma with
the battle hopelessly lost gained
recognition of the chair to with
draw from the race and move

SOLID SUPPORT IS
PROMISED FORMER
INDUSTRIAL HEAD
Legislative and Political Aspects
Of Convention Varied in
Character.

OLYMPIA, July 17-Cheering
loudly at the mention Of La
Follette's name and endorsing
Edward Clifford for governor by
a vote of 1876 to II, the Wash
ington State Federation of La
Dor at it's session here this week
placed itself on record as being
behind these two candidates for
office.
The resolution endorsing Cliff
ford came before the convention
for discussion Tuesday after
noon. A minority, headed by
Martin Flyzik, of the Miners
Union, put up a stubborn fight
that was hectic at times, on the
grounds that the administra-
tion of Clifford as director of
the department of labor was in
efficient, and discrimination had
been used against the miners in
raised medical aid rates.
No official endorsement was
given aFollette, but the temper
of the convention was plainly
shown by the cheering at every
mention of his name. President
Short made It plain that the Of
ficis ] endorsement Of Clifford il
no sense bound the individual
unions to his support.
An ovation was given Clifford
when he addressed the conven-
tion Wednesday, being greeted
with cries of "Our Next Gov
erner"
.'If / am elected, !" he said, 'I
promise the working men and
women of this state that thev
will never have occasion to criti-
cize an act of mine as g Jvernor. T"
The Bone bill endorsement
and the endorsing Of the candi-
dacies of William H. Pemberton
of Bellingham, Bruce Blake of
Spokane, and w. D. Lane of
Seattle for the state supreme
court (passed unanimously
were other political features con-
sidered.
Homer 7. Bone spoke in be-
half of the power bill bearing
his name, making one of the
most convincing and closely fol-
lowed addresses of any speaker
before the convention.

Five Restaurant
Keepers Heard on
Charge of Selling
Adulterated Milk

Proprietors of four restaurants
doing business in the state appeared
before A. NJ. G. Soule, chief of the
division of inspection, and State
Dairy Inspector Forrest A. Barbour
at q hearing held at the department

answered to the charge Of selling
adulterated food.
The restaurant proprietors in
volved wereW. j. Harmon of Har-
mons Cafe, Gardiner; j. c. Linton
of Gardiner, Donat Rossignol of Wa
terville and Nikitas and James Ker-
saris of the Colby, Lunch, Water
vile. j. G. Thomas of Bridgton and
w. II. Moses of Waterville, who
were also ordered to appear on the
same charge, failed to show up. Mr..
Thomas presented his evidence by
letter, however. In answer to the
charge each proprietor gave evidence
telling his story and presenting his
side of the case.
The language of the charge
brought against the men was: Sell
ing adulterated food, to wit: Milk
from which the valuable constituents
of the article had been wholly or in
part abstracted; and also for SELL
ing an adulterated food, to wit: Milk
which did not conform to the STAN
dards of strength and quality es-
tablished by the statute"
AT the conclusion of the hearing,
the cases were taken under advise
ment by Messrs. Soule and Barbour.
Mr.. Soule announced later in the
day that in all probability at least
a part of the men will be prosecuted.
Referring to the charge brought
against the restaurant proprietors,
Mr.. Soule said that the standard for
milk whether sold by the glass in a
restaurant of in q 20-quart can must
be OF legal standard strength, 3.25
per cent of butterfat, the standard
required by the Maine statute He
said that the safest course for q
lunchroom proprietor to follow when
customer asks for glass of milk
is to serve the milk in an individual
bottle.
