How Matters Industrial Are Progress
ing in That Busy Section.
Spokane, Wash., Oct. 17. Edward
McMorrow, international organizer
for the street railway men, and E. A.
Cooney, local organizer for the Amer
ican Federation of Labor, have formed
a union of street railway carmen, with
a charter membership of 200. The
purpose, of the organization is to bet
ter the condition of its members.
Spokane had a similar union three
years ago, but owing to the . lack of
interest the union gave up its charter.
At that time there was no opposition,
nor is there this year; however, the
union was not recognized, the several
companies maintaining their right to
employ men regardless of the union.
It is purposed to increase the mem
bership to take in every man in the
employ of the electric lines and pre
sent a new wage schedule next spring
At present the men appear to be satis
fied, since an increase was recently
granted by several lines.
E. A. Cooney, president of the Cen
tral Labor Union and local organizer
for the American Federation of Labor,
has just been elected a delegate to
the convention of the American Fed
eration at Minneapolis, Minn., Novem
ber 8.
A. G. Anderson, business agent of
the Federal Union, says in a note: "I
can. place six men in positions paying
$5.50 a day if they are capable of
cement finishing. We have many of
these men in our union, but there is
more work than men. Besides the ce
ment finishers, I can also place a num
ber Of laborers."
Reports submitted to the Central
Labor Union of Spokane at its last
meeting show that the wages of boiler
makers on railroads have been' in
creased from 37 to 39 cents an hour,
the scale for helpers being raised from
$2.12 to $2.15 a day.
Unious affiliated with the Central
Labor body of Spokane showed an un
usual increase in membership, it being
reported that per capita taxes had
"been paid for 2,127 members, with
more than 500 yet to pay. Practically
every union in the city, with the ex
ception of the carpenters, is now list
ed with the central body, which ii
stronger today than it has ever been
in its history. The conservative esti
mate of the number of union men in
Spokane places the figure at 4,000.
National Organizer Burton of the
Street Car Men's Union, at. a meet
ing of the Central Labor Union a few
nights ago, announced that that or
ganization is in flourishing condition
and gives promise of being successful
in every way.. He will leave in a few
days for the east, stopping at Duluth,
Minn., and the Twin Cities on thtj
way.
J. X. Shrader of Portland, Ore., na
tional organizer for Washington and
Oregon of the United Brotherhood of
Carpenters and Joiners, addressed a
large gathering of working men in
Oliver hall, Sunday evening, on "Or
ganized Labor, Its Cause, Effect and
Object."
Joseph H. Boyd, president and geu
eral manager of the National Iron
Works, and former president of the
city council of Spokane, announced
after a conference with G. W. Miller,
business agent for the structural
trades, that he will hereafter run an
open shop. No trouble is threatened,
but Mr. Miller is of the opinion that
it is only a question of a short time
when the closed shop rule will pre
vail.
Two new members were added to
the Local 73 of the International
Brotherhood of Electrical Workers.
Local 101 of the Teamsters' Union
added four members to its list at the
last meeting. The business agent re
ported that all members of the union
are employed, and a general state of
prosperity is being enjoyed by the
teamsters of Spokane.
Union men have agreed to return
to work on the stables and wagon
sheds under construction for the
Washington Water Power company
Frank Johnson, contractor, having
made it clear to the union that he
never employed non-union workers.

ing held by that body in many months,
and the result was a snappy meeting
that interested all present. The body
unanimously resolved to ask the Citi-
zans Street Railway company to or
ganise its moiormen and conductors,
and pledged the union men of the city
to give the company all possible pat
ronage in return for it.
The question of holding a "labor
fair" was discussed at length, and it
was the unanimous opinion of the
body that it could and should be done.
At the., meeting on October 23 a com
mittee will submit plans and specifir
cations for the fair, and if it is de
cided to go ahead the proper commit
tees will be at once appointed and set
to work.
A contribution of $2 was ordered
sent to the secretary of the Litho
graphers' International Union to as
sist tlife striking lithographers in their
fight against the open shop and the
long work' day. .
Immediately after the adjournment
of the central body, a mass meeting
was called to order and turned into a
rally in support of Smith and Quick,
labor candidates for the legislature.
Every delegate present- remained to
take part in the mass meeting, and it
was tiie unanimous expression that
every , worklngman in tne county
should put a shoulder to the wheel and
bost the labor candidates into office.
The meeting was an enthusiastic one,
and it portends a lot of good work at
the polls on election day.
THE MACHINISTS.
The union machinists of Lincoln and
Ilavelock are not making much noise
except with their hammers and lathes,
but just the same they are making
headway in the work of organization.
They sent a delegate to the central
body a few weeks ago, but he has
skipped a couple of meetings, much
to the regret of the other trades dele
gates. . . '
The Santa Fe machinists are still
fighting, and they are making -a lot of
trouble for the road, although they are
doing it quietly and legally. The
"scabs" are still being herded in bull
pens, and the road is clogged with
dead engines and stalled trains.
Machinists are whooping things up
in Pittsburg in the way of bringing
men into the fold.
The machinists are endeavoring to
organize a metal trades council.
Pittsburg machinists asked for an
eight-hour day and 40 cents per hour.
The bosses snubbed them. - The ma
chinists of that town much be poorly
organized.
