PAINTERS' UNION
First to Subscribe Space For
Press Labor Day Issue
The Labor Day issu^ of the Butler
County Press is now in the making.
Advertising space subscriptions are
being solicited and with splendid suc
cess. The advertisers in general ap
pear anxious, by their liberal sub
scriptions, to show their friendly
feeling toward the spokesman for lo
cal organized labor.
The various labor unions were re
minded that again the time is draw
ing near for the big annual edition
to come forth. Painters, Decorators,
and Paper Hangers' Local Union No.
135 was the first to respond this year,
with "Old 68" Iron Molders' Union
a close second. Both have their copy
in. "Old 68" has been first for a
number of years, but owing to the
time notices were put in the mail,
^the day following 68's meeting, the
brush wielders had an advantage and
beat the iron builders to it. Of course
the Press is glad for the rivalry and
loves them both as brothers should.
But—who's next? Come along,
brothers, let us hear from you with
out further urging, Help make life
easier for us, won't you? Let us
know the space wanted and give us
the copy at once. At-a-boy!
MOUNTERS'STRIKE
UNSETTLED
The strike of the stove" mounters
employed at the Estate Stove Com
pany is still on despite efforts of the
local union and Trades Council com
mittee to reach an agreement with
the company. The company simply
will not see the light.
It is to be regretted for the sake
of all concerned, including the city
of Hamilton, that this controversj
can't be settled and adjusted, for if
prolonged it is sure to mean great
loss to the firm, the employes, and
the merchants of Hamilton because
the strike is fast assuming one of
national aspect. The International
Stove Mounters' Union has approved
the strike and is supporting it and is
gradually making it known through-

out the country and all organized la
bor will be called upon to co-operate.
This means that dealers all over the
country will be requested to discon
tinue the handling of Estate products
and union workers and friends will be
asked to refrain from buying Estate
stoves, ranges, furnaces, Heatrola,
etc.
This will mean a cut in production
in the big local plant which will mean
a reduction in the working force and
that, of course, means a curtailment
of buying power, which further means
a loss to the local merchant. So it
can readily be seen that it means
much to the whole city, and not only
the Estate Stove Company and the
employes involved, that the contro
versy between the combatting parties
be settled satisfactorily to both as
soon as possible.
In the meantime all union men,
women and friends are asked to co
operate with the striking mounters,
to lend their moral support, until
such time as the Estate Company will
recognize the justness of their em
ployes' contentions.
EAGLEyOUTING,
July Fifth Planned For—
Motorcyclc Races and
Fireworks to Be
Features
Butler Aerie No. 407, Fraternal
Order of Eagles, is making great
plans for the annual Fourth of July
celebration and outing which will be
held at the fairgrounds Monday, July
5th. The committee in charge is
meeting almost nightly these days,
working out the details and leaving
nothing undone to make this year's
event the greatest in the history of
the lodge.
All the old time features, together
with many new ones, will be staged.
Many concessions are being applied
for by professionals so that the
grounds on July 5th will present the
appearance of one of the days of the
big Butler county fair.
Already many donations have been
sent into the Eagles' temple for the
country store, which is always one of
the big features of the outing. There
will be band concerts afternoon and
evening by Shoupe's band. All kinds
of games and contests, for young and
old, are being scftemed. Refresh
ments and lunch in abundance will
be had on the grounds.
The motorcycle races, abandoned
last year, and which proved a great
disappointment to the large crowd of
people attending, will again be the big
THE BUTLER COUNTY PRESS
afternoon feature this year. Already
a number of the country's speediest
riders have sent in their entries, and
many others are expected to enter,
so that there will be no lack of speed
on the fairgrounds track July 5th.
The Eagles' outing has always been
noted for its splendid firewords dis
play, and this year is to be no ex
ception. A contract has been award
ed for a high-priced gorgeous display,
and it will be worth going miles to
see.

Stock
Washington, D. C. The Union
Labor Life Insurance Company stock
continues to find the trade move
ment eager for participation in this
most pretentious venture of the labor
movement.
The fact that the company cffrno
into being pursuant to findings of a
committee appointed by an American
Federation of Labor convention that
it is a bona fide part of the trade
union movement, gives labor organi
zations everywhere an extreme con
fidence in the venture.
Leading the list of new organiza

Life Insurance Company this week is
Plumbers' and Steamfitters' Local
Union No. 13, of Rochester, N. Y.,
which has purchased $4,000 worth of
stock.
The Photo Engravers are continu

place as the organization having the
largest number of local union stock
holders. The Providence, R. I., local
union has bought ten shares.
