LABOR NOTES
The packing house strike at South
Omaha which threw more than 500
Colored men out of work, has been
settled. The packing companies asked
them to return and remain at the
plant until the matter should be ad
justed, but many of them feared that
such an act would result in trouble.
Out of ten men brought from the
south last week to work at the Smel
ters, three absolutely refused to go
to work. The result is that the com
pany will not send for any more men
this year.
The Monitor has brought more than
500 men from the South this year and
intends to set the mark at 5,000 for the
next season.
The time of the year is coming
when it will be wise for our people in
the south to remain there until next
spring. Chilly weather is setting in
and unless acclimated to it, there
would likely be a great deal of dis
comfort and sickness among a large
number of persons coming north.
Out of sixty men placed at one
; plant by The Monitor, nineteen have
[ broken their promises to repay the
i company their transportation. They
1 are making it very hard for the thou
I sands of others who are in the south j
! and want to leave, but they seem to
j be the class of shiftless Negroes who !
do not care.
Henry' Owens, of Florida, who has
suffered about two years from a gun
shot wound in the ieg, was sent to the
hospital by the American Smelting
and Refining Company. He is now
fully recovered and able to work. The
operation cost him nothing.
