President of Mine Workers

to Labor,
BY JOHN L. LEWIS.

President United Mine Workers OF

As long as men toll for their daily
bread there will be a Labor day in
America. One day will be set apart
from all the others in honor Of la

There will always be a day when
the toilers may lay aside their tasks
and renew their loyalty 10 the un-
dying principles upon which the
American labor movement is found
ed. And it is we'll that it is so. = It
IS right that the American public
should pause one day in the year

labor is noble. that labor is disnified,

roads of $6,50O,0 900 a year for six
years Of progressive legislation re-
futed their prophecies Of disaster.
Other public utilities besides rail
roads were not brought under the
control of the Railroad Commission
until 1907, and it was not until 1909
that the commission was able to get
their accounts into such shape as to
be reliable.
But Dr the year 1910. compared
with 1909, Notwithstanding reduc-
tions in rates and improvements in
service, the water utilities increased
their net earnings IL per cent, the
telephone utilities II per cent. gas
utilities IA per cent, and electric util-
tiles 25. per cent. These utilities even
exceeded the railroads in the rate al
which they made cash investments
for new construction.
A single example win show how
these different results have been
brought about. In April, 1910. after
two years Of careful investigation,
the railroad commission, after i'm
proving the quality Of service, re-
duced the maximum price OF cleo
tricity in the city Of Madison from
16 cents to IA cents per Hlowatt-
hour, and adjusted the other rates

II then became necessary to de

When all this immense work was
done. the commission had the wis
dom and foresight to submit its find
ings to the railroad officials. who
went over them and approved them.
This prevented disputes in the flu
ture, upon fundamental facts.

These accounts shoW that While
during the first five years Of its eX-
istence the commission reduced rates
by more than $4,000, 600 year, the
net earnings Of the railroads of Wis

tie more than the net earnings for
all railways In the United States. The
increase in Wisconsin was lS:+5 per
cent. and in the United States it was
.lS.I per cent.
How did this come about? Simply
from the fact that the decrease in
rates for freight and passengers was
followed by an enormous increase in
the amount Of freight and number
Of passen gers carried.
Much Of what the railroads lost in
the reduction Of open rates that
everybody shares they recovered by
being compelled to abolish free
passes and secret cut rates that went
only TO insiders and grafters.
The special examiners appointed in
1908 uncovered $5.992.731.5S as Wis

roads have gained at least $1,000 900

They must also have gained large

moulding of American society and
civilization II was due 10 the labor
of those pioneers that the waste

Labor is responsible for all Of the
development that has taken place IN
America. All progress has come
from the hands of labor. Why
should we not all be proud that we
are counted among the laborers OF
the land when labor has accom-
plished so much?
And why should We not all be
proud that we are numbered among
the hosts that have organized them
selves into the great American labor
movement which means so much TO
those who toll? Millions have banded
themselves together for mutual pro
lection and mutual good. That's
what the labor movement means

movement realize the benefits that
come from our association.

of trade unionism into all the land
and to all the people and TO carry
the torch forward until its light is
made 70 shine in the hearts Of all
men. Complete organization Of labor
in America is and should be the aim

CHAPTER III.
SPINNING THE WEB.

White azaleas, cleaning and
chaste, on a green bush--like a
little garden Towering there in
the corner Of Chickie's bare room.
She touched the snowy petals.
Her eyes misted reading the note,
Spring again, Helena, dear. Time
for new blossoms. Send a line
to an old dog, won't you? If you
have trouble getting job, wire
me-"
She wondered in what rich
spring Jake found such kindness.
She wondered too, at the pas
sionate devotion Janina showed.
1t was little pitiful, for Janina
wrote in one letter, "Chickie, old
thing, l could cut out my tongue
when think, perhaps, that
smarty alec things I've said may
have influenced you. Did they?
l wish you'd answer this. truly"
Oh, it was nothing that Janina
said; nothing that any one could
say. Nor could their friendship
heal her now.
She wrote to Jake, you are
too good to me. 1t makes me
wish to cry. And l dare not do
that, you know. I'll write soon
in a few weeks. You cannot
know how much thank you"
A thousand blossoms there
might come this spring. They
that she turned so resolutely from
every glad and happy thing; that
she said to herself so insistently,
"No-let me be alone"
There was no love left in her
heart. She had emptied 1t.
There was no laughter in her
spirit. Kings might kneel to her.
No chord of joy would ever again
respond.
So Chickie felt--and faced
future, destitute Of youth; of spar
kle: faced 1t grimly. even proudly.
Those first nights in the new

about her. She went down to the

bors; spoke to none. She was un-
aware of the stealthy glance &C.
costing her; unaware that the
white beauty of her face was an
establishment and lure. 1t would
always be.
Afterwards she took Wilde and
walked swiftly rough he
strange. new streets. This was an
ancient part of town, with many
rambling. dilapidated old homes
set in wide gardens. There were
hills about. Chickie walked to
West Third, high above the Tun-
mel, and here she found Il hill even
like that on Twenty-first street.
She missed the bay and the
lights going down from the ferry
boats in such a golden radiance
through the waters. But she soon
came to love the changing colors
of the dreaming mountains.
Spring sauntered with perfume
and flowers over the southland
that year; it brought fairy songs
in it's breeze.

Chickie sat on an old broken
wall - brooding. Tomorrow she
was going to work. The type
writer company where she had
registered, phoned. The position
was with q brokerage firm-the
type of work Chickle understood.
Yet she had a reluctance to be-
gin; an overmastering fear. And
she sat on the hill, wishing franti-
cally for some escape-oh, that
the world might come to an end
or a tidal wave sweep up
Someone spoke to her. Vista

She turned sharply. 1t was a
man who lived at the boarding
house. Edgar Manx, a pale. dis
tinguished fellow about thirty
three. He had a pleasant voice
with deep English accent and
winning smile. Every night he
took a cane and went for brisk
walk. Twice already he had
saluted Chickie, eagerly
Now he said, May sit here,

from far places, too, aren't you,

"Oh, not so far" She glanced
down quickly. clasping her hands.
Pardon me. l confess to a
great curiosity. l love these hills.
Do you? They have all manner of
legends about them. They say

eyes into the dark; marked out
the lights on the city's hills.
She fancied Jonathan's hat still
waved at her; fancied that Jennie
wiped her eyes.
she peered into this night that
dropped like wall between her
and them, closing her out from
that happier time-oh, those
thousand days when she had
laughed so blithely.
Finished all that. She wanted
1t so. Finished all joy. Let
her go in quietness with bowed
head and lowered eyes, unnoticed,
forgotten.
Tragic thing to ask, of life
when one is young-just twenty
two. But this was Chickie's
prayer.
She lay in her berth that night
awake. When tears crept from
her eyes, she wiped them slowly.
Again, when she wondered why
she had been beaten so. WHY
she had been branded so, she
made her lips smile. Past-all
that was past. She must wipe it
out--an Of it, begin again.
Oh, not SO hard-going away.
That made it easy-lose herself
IN a city of strangers. Finally
she had decided on Los Angeles.
No one knew her there. No
one would stare and whisper
when she passed.
She would work. She would
make no friends. Only the dog.
They would take long walks.
She turned her face against
the pillow for suddenly Mary
stood before her, then Janina,
then Jimmy, his lips shaking:
You don't love me-isn't that
the reason? But if you change"

CHANGED that Chickie was taking
dlctation. She didn't raise her
eyes. She heard a deep toned
voice: "I'll wait-finish it."
He stood there. Presently
Chickie felt him watching her;
felt his glance like a heat on her
face. She grew nervous.
Then his eyes moved to her
hands-back to her face. She
felt stifled.
Norp Williams said: THAT will
do"
AS Chickie rose, Lee Whitman
picked up pencil that fell to the
floor. He offered it to her. She
saw his face with it's extraordi-
nary lighted eyes-large, brown,
deep set under the broad, promi-
nent forehead. She had an i'm
preston Of something Wistful--
over delicate in his mouth. He
smiled, revealing his excessive
youth-but it was a magnetic
smile, somewhat pathetic, or it
seemed so to Chickie.

later the father left.
