MATTIE CLAY. 4t—M9-26-9—2-9-20. 1 down-trodden and outcast workers of the world. Personally he has touched more lives than any other living man. He was and always has been a fear less searcher for truth. His school years were short. He graduated with credit from the Old Seminary School in Terre Haute. In May, 1870, he be gan to work for the Terre Haute & Indianapolis Railway company. He first worked in the shops, then was locomotive fireman. He kept this po sition until 1874. From 1874 to 1879 he worked for’ Hulntau & Cox grocery house. In 1879 he was elected city clerk for four years. He had joined the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen when it was first organized at Terre Haute. He had organized the Brotherhood of Railway Brakemen, now known as ; Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen. He i helped to organize the Switchmen’s ! Mutual Aid Association, Brotherhood j of Railway Carmen, Order of Railway Telegraphers and several other unions. ' In 1878 he was made associate editor | of the Fireman’s Magazine. In July, 1880 he was appointed grand secre | tary and treasurer and editor and | manager of the magazine, serving in ! the former capacity until 1893 and in i the latter capacity until September, i 1894. He then took hcarge of the affairs ! of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen, the order having only 60 j lodges and $6,000 debt, in a short j j time he added 226 lodges and had wiped out the debt. At the Cincinnati | convention in 1892 he tendered his res ignation, which was unanimously re | fused. He was unanimously re-elected j to all the offices held. He again ten dered his resignation and insisted upon its acceptance. No such demonstra tion of love and pathetic regret has ; ever been known in a national gather- j ing of citizens. Mr. Debs said: “That organization should be broad enough ] to embrace all the workers,” and that he would give all his energy to build ing up such an organization. The con- ! vention unanimously voted to give | him $2,000 for a trip to Europe for 1 rest and enjoyment. This Mr. Debs | refused. With a few others in June, 1893, j he organized the American Railway 1 Union. His salary was fixed at $75 j a month. During his last two year’s work for the organization lie drew no ] salary at all. J4e said: “l am will ing to advance any movement to teach and rescue perishing humanity. : , To sec suffering about me, I myself! suffer, so helping others, I help my- : self.” He said further, “No man makes a sacrifice unless he violates ! his conscience.” April 16, 1894, a circular letter was j issued to the members of the Ameii- I can Railway Union, containing a scale J of wages paid on the Great Northern ) railroad. The wages were compara- i lively small. The cheapest board in j Butte, Mont., was $26 a month. The | A. R. IT. wanted the switchmen at i Great Falls and Helena to receive the j same pay as those at Butte. “The j representative of the employes will | meet at Minot not later than ten j days hence, and formulate schedules according to all classes of employes, i or said employes will quit work at. 12 o’clock noon this 13th day of; April.” No reply was made. The order to strike was given. Mr. Hill requested faithful employes to re ' main. Making promise of promotion as is always the case. The A. R. U, held meetings at all points along the Great Northern. Their membership increased by the thousands. Beaten at every point. Mr. Hill called for a conference. He thought only of gtv ing Mr. Debs the worst of the deal. Those acquainted with Debs had no fear of tlfe outcome. Mr. Hill wanted to arbitrate, but Mr. Debs said “No.” Mr. Hill was trying to divide the men and make trouble for the union of brotherhood. The men were firmly united and no method used could divide them into factions. The union men won. On May 3, 1894 Debs returned home amid music and shouts from 4,000 men, women and children. He said: “From the depths of my heart I appreciate and thank you for this demonstration of confidence and respect.” Not one drop of human blood was spilled and the men gained 97 per cent of their demands. The railroad paid $146, 000 a year more to their employes. As Mr. Debs left the west the old trackmen, men whose frames were bent w'ith years of grinding toll, waved their hats at him as they bent over their shovels. Think w'hat Debs’ work meant to thousands who belore had only had a miserable existence. Debs said: “My friends and neigh bors, I can only assure you my eter nal friendship and loyalty.” CANADIAN LINER NETS NEW RECORD FOR TRIP Montreal, Sept. 9.—The Canadian Pacific liner Empress of France, which arrived at Quebec, broke the record for the Liverpool to Quebec trip, com pleting the Journey In five days, 23 hours.
