When you are buying a FUR HAT, either soft or stiff, see
to it that the Genuine Union Label is sewed on it if a re-
tailer has loose labels in his possession and offers to put
one in your hat for you do not not patronize him. He has
no right to loose labels. Loose labels in retail stores are
counterfeits. Do not listen to any explanation as to why
the hat has no label. The Genuine Union label is perfor-
ated on the edges ex? ctly the same as a postage stamp.
Counterfeits are sometimes perfoated on three of the edges
and sometimes only two. Keep a sharp lookout for the

Bought the Plant.
One of the most stubbornly fought
labor contests known to Cincinnati and
adjacent cities in Kentucky came to a
close after six months’ duration. The
strikers were brass molders of a New-
port (Ky.) foundry, and the strike end-
ed by the strikers buying the plant,
which will hereafter be conducted on
the co-operative plan. The capital stock
is $40,000, consisting of 160 shares at
$250 per share. There are about seven-
ty-five shareholders.
buyer and seller. It is coming to be
realized in the industrial world that the
same thing is true regarding the ar-
rangements between employers and
employees and that no arrangement is
permanent that is not regarded as be-
ing beneficial to both. In other words,
the only healthy industrial condition
is that in which the employer has the
best men obtainable for his work and
the workman feels that his labor is be-
ing sold at the highest market price.-

Railroads Return to Plan of Em-
ploying Experienced Men.
According to the Chicago newspa-
pers, railroads and other big corpora-
tions which about three years ago
adopted the policy of refusing employ-
ment to men over thirty-five years
have apparently come to the conclu-
sion that the rule has failed to produce
the results expected, and in the near
future it is likely that several of the
Chicago railways and corporations
that were the first to hail the innova-
tion with delight will change their pres-
ent rule and employ experienced men
at any age in any department.
The disastrous effect of too much
youth, which has caused the reaction,
has been especially apparent in the
operating departments of several of
the leading railways, and it has
brought home to heads of the roads
the fact that in an emergency a man
of forty or forty-five who is conversant
with the details of his position is more
reliable than a brilliant young man of
twenty-five.
The Chicago and Alton railroad, one
of the first to make a cast iron rule
barring the hiring of men over the age
of thirty-five, has given notice that it
will reserve the right to hire at least
one-half the men in the operating de-
partments from the ranks of experi-
enced men regardless of age.
The Boston and Maine road has giv-
en notice that it will entirely abandon
the principle of the age limit and that,
no matter what a man’s age is, if he
can show himself to be a competent
railroader, he is eligible for its service.
The Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul
railroad will in future suit its conven-
ience without regard to the age of the
men to be hired, and several other
roads, while they have not made any
definite announcement in the matter,
have practically abandoned the rule
and employ men who can do their work
in preference to those who have to
learn it.
“The Burlington road,” said its gen-
eral manager, D. Miller, “has found by
long experience that it is quite impos-
sible to operate successfully with only
young men. We have always given our
young men every chance to rise in the
service of the company and to some
extent follow the civil service custom,
but we have always maintained that
no age limit should prevent the com-
pany securing the services of a man
whose experience would make him val-
uable to us. Reliable men over thirty-
five are too valuable an asset for any
company to overlook.”
The Boston and Maine railway has
not only abandoned its age limit with
regard to experienced men, but in-
cludes inexperienced as well, and will
in future hire men of any age and in
any capacity.
Other roads and corporations, while
they have not come out and announced
their intention of removing the age
limit, have allowed it practically to be-
come a dead letter, especially in the
operating department.
The experience of three years has
proved to their satisfaction that there
are fewer wrecks and a much smoother
service when their trains are in the
hands of experienced conductors and
engineers than when practically the
entire service was manned by younger
men.—Clothing Trades Bulletin.

Prescrptions Promptly Filled
Prosperity or Adversity of One Trade
Correspondingly Affects All Labor
Organizations—Importance of De-
cisive Action.
The following extracts from the an-
nual report of President John Mitchell
of the United Mine Workers furnish
strong evidence of the fact that the
labor unionists of the country who, be-
cause of the nature of their occupa-
tion, cannot well use a union label are
thoroughly alive to the necessity of
supporting the labels of sister organ-
izations :
“Every year I have directed the at-
tention of our membership to the im-
portance of purchasing goods manu-
factured or produced by organized
workmen and bearing the trade union
label, and I have repeatedly recom-
mended to our locals that committees
be appointed for the purpose of visit-
ing retail merchants and impressing
upon them the necessity of handling
and offering for sale goods produced
by union labor. That these efforts
have met with a fair degree of success
is attested by the officers of the va-
rious organizations using the union
label. In this report I wish to reit-
erate these recommendations and to
emphasize as strongly as I can the
vital importance of decisive action
along these lines.
“At no time in the history of the
trade union movement has this em-
blem of fair wages, sanitary work-
shops and reasonable conditions of em-
ployment been so bitterly assailed by
the enemies of trade unionism as at
present. It is a matter of common
knowledge among those familiar with
the industrial situation that the Manu-
facturers’ association and the Citizens’
alliance are doing all in their power
to discountenance the use of the union
label and to discredit manufacturers
who have placed it upon their goods.
“Of course it may be said that as
coal miners we have no direct interest
in the union label since our product
cannot bear it, but this is an incorrect
view to take and one which fortunate-
ly is entertained by very few of our
members. The Interests and the wel-
fare of the various trades are so close-
ly interwoven that the prosperity or
the adversity of one organization cor-
respondingly affects every other organ-
ization. If it were possible to weaken
or destroy the unions using the label
it would be only a question of time
until disaster would overtake the or-
ganizations of those crafts which owing
to the nature of their product cannot
make use of the label.
“There are many other reasons why
the members of our organization should
give active support to their fellow trade
unionists in other crafts and callings.
We should ever keep in mind and
should seek constantly to repay the
debt of gratitude we owe to the organ-
ized workers of our country for the
material aid and sympathy given us
by them during the days of adversity
when we were compelled to fight for
our very existence.
“In summing up our duties in re-
spect to this question I desire to rec-
ommend specifically that the following
action be taken:
“First—That each local union which
has not already done so appoint a
standing committee of not less than
three members, whose duty it shall be
to visit the various merchants and im-
press upon them the necessity of han-
dling and offering for sale products
manufactured by organized workmen
and bearing the union label.
“Second.—That at least ten minutes
at each local meeting be set aside for
the purpose of hearing the reports of
such committees and for a general dis-
cussion upon the subject of the union
label.
“Third.—That wherever it is possible
to do so auxiliary organizations com-
posed of the mothers, wives, daugh-
ters and sisters of coal miners be
formed to the end that they may be-
come familiar with the various union
labels and impressed with the im-
portance of purchasing goods bearing
them.
“Fourth.—That, as a primary means
to the consummation of these objects,
our local unions see to it that there is
organized in every mining community
a branch of the Retail Clerks’ Interna-
tional asociation. By doing this it will
bring into co-operation with us the
men and women who by reason of
their employment are in a position to
render us invaluable asistance."

What the Union Label Can Do For
the Labor Cause.
It can kill “sweating.”
It can prevent convict labor from
competing sucessfully with honest la-
bor.
It can establish a closer and friend-
lier feeling between employer and em-
ployee.
It can raise wages and reduce hours
of labor.
It can create a demand for union la-
bor.
It can keep children out of the fac-
tories until they receive a fair educa-
tion at school.
It can help subdue the tyranny of
fool foremen and superintendents
whom nature meant to be herders of
cattle instead of overseers of men.
In can maintain a price for the com-
modities that labor produces and en-
able the employer to pay the price
without feeling he is paying more than
his competitors and losing money by
doing so.
It can give to the worker a fair day’s
wage for a fair day’s work and to the
employer a fair day’s work for a fair
day’s wage.
If workingmen would only be half as
loyal to the union as they should be,
its power would be so fully demon-
strated and appreciated that nonlabel-
ed goods would be forever tabooed.
Every workingman should demand
the union label in season and out of
season. Demand it at all times.-
