A Few Comimrixoiis of Today nntl Fifty Yearn ARO. In 1840 an operative in the cotton mills of Rhode Island, working 13 and 14 hours a day, turned out 9,000 yards of standard sheeting in a year. In 1SS6 the operative in the same mill, with machinery, made 30,000 yeards, work ing 10 hours a day. The displacement of hand labor in some of the cotton mills of the United States, from 1S40 to 1890, by improved machinery was from 33 to 50 per cent, and the average work of one operative working one year would in 1S90 supply the annual wants of 1,600 fully clothed Chinese. Among the minor industries, in tha manufacture of jewelry, one skilled workman, paid at the rate of $2.50 to $3 a day and working according to ante machine methods in use a few years ago, could make up three dozen pairs of sleeve buttons a day. Now one boy, ..... -f paid $3.00 a week and working with modern machinery, can produce 9,000 pairs a day. In Adam Smith's day it was considered a wonderful achieve ment for ton men to mrike 48,000 pins In a day, but now three men make 7,500,000 of vastly superior quality in the same time. don't Indulgo in f-heap talk, but quote prices as the better way to keep the ul the public eye turned toward our store ai 1 public feet talking our way.

The organized charity needed by the world today is a righteous distribu- :.°f, be ^ken out ot the minds of people, a gieat man burden would be lifted, because fears are often, greater concern- ing the future than the present. If the apprehension of poverty were removed it would tend to stop the mad scramble. after wealth that causes many to lose the highest and truest aims in life The thought of future poverty and de pendence stifles the vital energies and tends to make many useless members of society, but if one could be assured of work and of enough material means to keep him in comparative comfort when unable to work there would un- I doubtedly be a radical change in the minds of many regarding the advan tages that might accrue from vast aft cumulations of wealth.

President O'Connell adds: "Between 40 and 50 per cent of our 50,000 Mem bers are employed by the National Met al Trades association.

MinneaiioliK' Mayor Sliows H1111 sen If in the True Ligltt. MINNEAPOLIS, March 15.—Now that Mayor Ames has slopped over again, as he is continually doing, and has showed that he has still higher political ^ambitions, and would like to be governor, it vvould be well to ask what claims he has to such distinction says the Minneapolis Union. Minnesota Labor News. There are many workingmen in the city who, for some mysterious reason, still think that Ames is their friend. What he ha3 everr done to make good his claims to that effect we have never heard anyone say—but he undoubtedly received many votes on account of this unfounded' belief of the workingman. As a matter of fact, Mayor Gray is the only mayor the city ever had who gave any direct recqgnition to labor. With the usual blindness of workingmen as far as their own interests are concern ed, they voted for the shadow instead of the substance—for the gas bag who before election made vague, indistinct con talks about workingmen being en titled to eight dollars a day, and that kind of stuff, and defeated the man who had been their friend. The first thing this professional "workingman's friend" did was to fire every represent ative of organized labor—and it seemed he could hardly do it soon enough after he got into power. Since then he has contemptuously ignored every request of organized iobor, and seems to take cs pecial interest and delight in so doing. And he will have the impudence in about two years to come around with his old "workingman's friend" story. Try and remember the above facts and such others as we will from time to time lay before you. We will try and remind you of them at the proper time. SERVANT GIRLS ORGANIZE. Benefit.* of the Minneapolis Union Spreading: in St. Paul. ST. PAUL, March 15.—The servant girl question is one that has vexed the mind of mistress as well as maid fu^ very long time, and the vexed Question may be solved in the near future to th satisfaction of all concerned through the formation of a servant girl's union, for which purpose Organizer Krieger has called a meeting of all the servant girls in the city at Assembly hall this evening. The object of the union is not for the purpose of raising- wages, but rather for having a better under standing as to duties to be performed, which will be of advantage to all par ties concerned, and W^ll have the ef fect as well of doing away with the servant girl agencies which so fre quently get money from the girls for services never rendered. Under the new order of things girls out o^ employment will have a central gathering point at which they can call and where situations will be provided free of cost, 'and such a gathering point will be a great convenience to those who are in want of servants, as the fact of their belonging to a union is a guarantee that the service they will render is of the best. Such a un ion has been in operation in Minne apolis for some time and has proved not only successful in niiinbers, but its working has beien found so satisfactory that, it is said it has received the hearty support of those employing ser vants as well as the servants them selves. MIW EAPOLIS WOODWORKERS. Union in Excellent Shape—Xo Labor Troubles Anticipated. MINNEAPOLIS, March 15—The news paper talk about trouble brewfhg be ween the Woodworkers and their em ployers seems to have been without foundation, as an agreement has al eady been arrived at with every firm which employed union men last year, with one exception, and it is not hought probable that anything will arise to cause dissention. While there re some of the large firms which have not signed the agreement, it is thought robable that these firms may be in duced to sign the agreement of the Woodworkers. Whether they do or not immaterial, as the firms already em ploying union men do most of the work 11 the city, and will have no trouble supplying the label on all goods used by the contractors here. The Woodworkers are better organiz ed thsln ever before in their history, and prospects for plenty of work for all the coming summer are excellent. It is a pleasure to note the excellent con dition of the union, as there is no more progressive and hustling organization in the city than the Woodworlcfers. FLOUR CITY HACK-DRIVERS. Have Opened Headquarters and Will Supply the Beit of Service. MINNEAPOLIS, March 15.—Hack drivers Union report everything in good shape in their organization. Their treasury and their membership are both growing, and there is much in terest displayed by the members in the union. A novel feature introduced by the hack-drivers is the establishment, of a headquarters, where they can have a meeting place, and where the public can be supplied at any time with any thing in the line of cabs, hacks, car tages, messenger, service, etc. The un ion has located at 211 Washington Ave nue South, where they have a cigar stand, handling only union made goods, and where telephone calls may be made for any kind of service. The -entire business is owned and controlled by the union, and the public will get the best of service by^ patronizing the place. MI.WKAPOLIS CARPENTERS. On the Bent of Terms With Enkploy er«—Bright Prospect* Ahead. MINNEAPOLIS, March 15—The big organization of the. city, the carpenters.: are keeping up their rapid growth, and •believe there is a good and busy sea son ahead of them thb coming1 summer.. The feeling between.the carpenters and the contractors, is a. most fripndly one, and there is little chanc^ of anything happening to break up this friendly spirit. The' question of wages atui AMES VXI1 I^AltOIt hours has been settled satisfactorily to both sides, and the prospects for:# large amount of building are excellent The' carpenters area large factor in, the labor world of this city, and it is a matter of congratulation that they are on such friendly and satisfactory terms with the contractors and builders. GROWING IMOX. Xliim'sipoIiK XiiNiciantt \re Initiating Many Jlew Meml»cr*. MINNEAPOLIS, March 15—The Min neapolis Musicians' Association reports that their union is keeping abreast with the advance in unionism and growth of organizations, in other branches, .and that new members are being taken in: at-every meeting. The association has established, headquarters at room 18, Eastman Block, and rooms have been fitted Up and will be kept open night and day for the convenience and pleas ure of the members. MIVVEAPOLIS I.AIIEL LElfil K. Good Demand For Labels—\'ew Un ions to He Organised. 4 MINNEAPOLIS, March 15.—The last meeting of the league showed a gooJ at tendance. J. E. Murdock, of the brtiiom makers, and H. B. Carver, of the brass workers, filed credentials. All delegates stated there was a good demand for their respective labels. It was stated that St, Paul work-house made brooms were being unloaded on the Minneapolis market, and it was hoped to put a stop to their sale here, and it is much regretted that some Minneapolis merchants would buy such vile made products in preference to home and union made brooms. Organizers reported that there would soon be local unions of the soda-bot tler's, colored waiters (hotel), and a women's label league, also that another laundry had been unionized. THE RARBERS' UNION. Ave Hopeful of Enjoying: Some of the Ilenetitft of the Shorter Workday. MINNEAPOLIS, March 15.—The last meeting of the Barbers' Union was well attended, as the meetings of this union have been for some time, and much in terest is shown in the organization, and the plans which have been made for organization and improving the condi tion of the trade. The barbers are hopeful that the time is not far distant when they may enjoy some of the bless ings'of a shorter work-day. The bar bers are among the few workmen of the city who are still working long and burdensome hours, and it is hoped that they mav soon be able to inaugurate more reasonable hours. UNIONS Secretary Brown of the Typographical Union is confined to his home wrestling with the la grippe. The Brewery Drivers' Union intend to affiliate with the Brewery .Workers' Union in the near future. "Of:"'all sad words of tongue or pen the saddest-" are these it might have been'' cleaned better had Kelley cleaned it. The state of trade among the dif ferent unions at present is dull, but the prospects are bright for the com ing season. The movement started by some of the members of the Twentieth Century Club to form a servant girl's union in this city has evidently gone by the boards. The Leather Workers, which is anew union recently formed here, is rapidly coming to the front and in a short time will be one of the leading unions in the city The elevator operators in the different buildings in the city are contemplating forming an organization in the near future and will affiliate with the Trades Assembly. Rev. T. H. Clelland, pastor of the First Presbyterian Church, will preach tomorrow night on "labor organizations and what they have accomplished." The sermon will undoubtedly be an in teresting one, and every laboring man in the city should try and hear it. At a meeting held by the Plasters' Union Monday night a committee was appointed to try and organize the plasters of Superior. So far the com mittee has rpet with considerable suc cess and an organization will be per fected in the. near future. The Trades Assembly held a well at tended meeting last Friday evening, at which considerable routine business was transacted. The raise of the per capita tax to 3 cents per member for special organization purposes seemed, to meet with favor among the members of the assembly. An effort has been made to re-organ ize the defunct Laundry Workers' Un ion, but the committee having the, mat ter in charge has been unable to do anything as: the laundry workers do not seem to, take any interest in trying to better their conditions and promulgate the fundamental principles of unionism which is so dear to every workingman who belongs to an organiaztiion. The free labor bureau ordinance which was passed by the city council some time ago, will take effect May 1. It will without any doubt be a great benefit to the working classes' of the city, especially to the unorganized, who belong to no union and work at what ever they can get. It will injure some of the lincensed employment agencies of the city, who have time and time again victimized the working people, and it is a move in the right direction and should have the united support of •ail: lab6iping ciasMs ^^^fi|I^^P^^^p.
