Need Funds.
Coalport, MADEIRA and Grass Flats
have each enjoyed the Labor Chau-
tauqua this summer. Other mining
towns are clamoring for their chance,
but funds for the Chautauqua have to
be raised outside of miners pockets.
The district union treasury cannot f.
nance even this important work when
so much relief has to be paid. Last
season Fuller held 10 Labor Chautau-
quas, all over the district. The re-
Spouse is always worth the effort,
bucking up the spirit of the miners
and their families in this trying Pc
riod. Fuller is hoping that enough
friends of the miners can be found
with the means to give for carrying
on Labor Chautauquas throughout this
region for the rest of the summer.

r. r. Workers on City
Transport Should Act
with Electric Unions
BY a Worker Correspondent

The suburban service of the Illinois
Central is now electrified. 1t is no
different than that of the elevated
service of the streets. 1t is no differ
ent whether steam or electric power
is used, the employees are engaged in
the transportation of the same COM
modify, the commuter.
But if the employees of the city lines
go out on strike the railroad employee
thinks of himself as a railroad en-
ploye and will stay on the job of trans
porting commuters. Thousands .of
commuters will be forced to the steam
lines. 1t will be necessary to run
hundreds Of extra trains and the use
OF hundreds Of extra railroad en-
ployes.
The railroad employee will be forced
to scab on the carmen, should they go
out on strike. IL is time that the
rank and file Of the several transpor-
tation unions got together. instead Of
allowing themselves to be used to de-
feat each other by their officers and
the corporations.

FLUTES RE AR
BREAD RIOTS MAY
LEAD TO R EV0L T
Dread Repetition of the
French Revolution

VIII the mounting price Of bread in
France bring revolution? That uues-
ton, according to the New York Times
Paris correspondent, Is alarming Of
fetal circles, The bread problem, he
says, has been back Of every great
French social upheaval.
Franc Worthless
The franc today is worth scarcely
/ g OF prewar, We perhaps think of
it as a remote problem, of interest
only TO flnanciers, But to the French
worker the decline of the franc means
that the price Of bread rises faster
than wages can keep pace.
Bread Riots. s
French capitalists know that bread
riots led up to the French revolution
of 1889 which abolished feudalism and
the monarchy. AS early as ITS in
Dion, Auxere, Amiens and Lille the
people took the houses of monopolists,
destroyed their furniture and smashed
their flour mills. At Paris they plum
dered the bakeries and distributed
food to the crowd.
Riots Lead in Revolt.
In 1882 and 1888 the riots began
again. In 1886 the Lyons silk weav-
ers struck for higher wages to meet
the increasing cost OF bread. They
were suppressed and 8 leaders hanged.
By December 1889 the rioting devel.

bread. Peasants and workers forced
wellto-do farmers to sell grain at a
fair price. They seized the grain of
spectators and distributed it. They
demanded better wages and abolition
of taxes that kept up the price Of
food.
In Paris the first open battle was
fought around the paper factory of a
capitalist who answered the demand
for bread with the suggestion that the
workers eat hay. Twelve soldiers
were killed and 80 wounded. On the
peoples side 200 were killed and 300
wounded.

riots. The parliament or estates-gen-
eral was summoned to save the gov
eminent from bankruptcy. The 3rd
estate, representing the commons, de-
clared itself the national ASSEMBLY.
The driving force was the demand of
half-starved workers for bread. Kro-
potkin in his Great French revolution
says, cat the time when the famine
was growing more and more severe
the people knew that in Paris and the
vicinity there was food enough to feed
everybody, and the poor said to one
another that without an instruction
the monopolists would never leave off
starving the people"
Spectators Control Wheat.
Today, as $50 years ago, there is
plenty of wheat in France, as the
French minister of agriculture admits.
But as in the era preceding the great
French revolution, it is in the hands
