Union and
la the Labor day Issue of the Western
laborer the following article by Theodora
W. McCullough waa given a prominent
place:
One ef the first questions, often the very
first which the young man must answer
abea emerging from hla chrysalis stage as
apprentice to the activity ot lite ae a jour
neyman la, "Will I join the union?" Sub
sidiary to thla question, but so closely con
nected as to be almost Inseparable, are
the questions, "What will the un'.on do
for me?" and "What can I do for the
union?" Too often the answer to the first
of these Is sufficient to determine the an
swer to the main query., and tho aecond,
which la really of vast importance. Is never
answered. During but years of Servitude,
while mastering the rudiments ot his trade
for no one so well knows aa the old Jour
neyman how little of the real art of the
craft the apprentice actually masters before
he la admitted to full fellowship In the
guild as a master craftsman the young man
bears much of the union. It takes oa no
definite term for him, yet he feela Ita In
fluence on every side, i Intangible snd Itn
prndera'ble, but with a decidedly palpable
(xlstence, ths uniou hedges him about, and
he dally fetls the effects of Its rules and
regulations. Frequently, It may be, ha con
ceives a repugnance for an Institution he
cannot understand, but whose movements
have fo marked reflex In all that surround
him In the ebop. He may conceive the
a ti n that tho anion la a monster of soma
scrt, designed to crush out Individuality,
to repres ambition, and to prevent de
velopment ot personality. Thla la. In brief,
tbs nctloa that many uninformed people do
have of trades unions. Or, the apprentice
may gain the notion that the union is eTrne
scrt of a powerful organisation that la
going to aecure tor him ateady employment
at remuaaratlve wages, whether he deserves
it or not
It matters not how ha roaches either
of these conclusions, tor both are wrong.
In the first place, a union correctly
conceived and properly constituted, and no
unloa can endure unless It Is both, does
not repress or circumscribe the Individual
with intolerable conditions. Sometimes It
may happen that ths aeifish Interest of the
individual runs counter to the beet interests
of the anion. In such Instances the union
must, in the very nature of things, control.
But no laudable endeavor or legitimate am
bition or aspiration of the Individual is
over hampered by membership to a trades
union. Unions establish minimum ' wags
scales, but never a maximum. Thay oc
casionally establish a maxhnum limit to the
daily task to be required of tsir
bars, but these regulations ara Invariably
based en the law ot exchange, so much
lsbor for so much money. Such regulations
are of Immense service to the employer, aa
they do away avlth all uncertsinty as to
expense In coaaectlea with tha Ilim of
labor la hla business, and enable him to

during the night of August 30 the quantity
of dust which fell here was greater than
on any previous occasion since the first
eruption of Mont Pelee. At nightfall ot
the 30th a dark cone-shaped cloud, emit

to Castries, Island of St. Lucia, by officers
ot ths French steamship Dahome. This
eruption was followed by total darkness
five miles away from the volcano. A dis

said that between 10 In the morning and 3
In the afternoon ot August 35, clouds of
dust were seen In the direction of Mont

showera ot volcanic dust on the Island.
The following message was received from
Dominica, Tuesday, the 2Cth: "Since 3
p. m. Tuesday prolonged rumbling noises
In quick succession have been heard from
the southward. There Is every Indication
that Mont Pelee is In violent eruption."
A dispatch from Paris, dated August 28,

the Individual
reason out of many that might be cited In
support of the proposition. In no sense
do these regulations interfere with the
growth ot the individual. In wage acalea
a clause, always present, reads: "Provided,
That nothing in this contract shall be In
terpreted to prevent a euperior workman
from receiving a higher rate of wages."
This In itself la an incentive to the In
dividual, for he has before him always the
fact that If he become uncommonly skill
ful aa a craftsman, he will gain more money
aa well as a higher position In the esteem'
ot his fellow workmen and hla employer.
What doea tha union do for the indi
vidual? In the very beginning It is a
guaranty of his integrity aa a workman.
When he is accepted as a member It is
after the union haa been satisfied that ha
Is sufficiently versed lo the affairs ot his
trade to meet the requirements of the craft,
to do a fair day'a work In a workmanlike
way for a fair day'a wage. In guaranteeing
his integrity as a workman the union doee
not accept responsibility for his eonduot
as a man, but tha Influence, of tbe union
Is Inevitably for good in thla direction.
In order to maintain hie standing with hla
union tho member must deal fairly and
honestly with his fellow members, and this
naturally leads him to deal fairly and
honestly with his fellow men. In this way
the trades union has aided In elevating the
standard of citizenship and ths resultant
moral tone of the oommunlty. If the union
accomplished no other end, this la sufficient
to entitle it to commendation and respect,
not only from its members, bu from every
body. But the union doea mora for the
Individual. It makes the cause of one of
Its members the cause of all. It fights
ths battle of the Individual because tbe
battle of the Individual Is tbe battls of
the union. In this regard the responsibil
ity Is divided, but rests with equal weight
on all. Unions ara often accused of be
ing unreasonable, tyrannical and oppres
sive, charges which are almost invariably
unfounded, snd generally msde by persons
who have either been made to feel the
power of ths union or have not thoroughly
examined Into tbe merits of the matter
which calls tor the condemnation. Only
rarely does a union come down with Its
full force on an Individual workman. When
It does it merely exercises the highest
function of oraarnlsed society, thst of pro
tecting Itself from a discovered enemy.
Trades unions ara usually patient and long
Suffering, conservative In dealings wltb em
ployers, rendering faithfully all they prom
ise and exacting in return only what they
agreed upon. In effect, a trades unloa Is
a labor tiust iu whlub lis members pool
what they have to sell, and undertake to
maintain a stanJard selling price therefor.
It Is not claimed that the trades union ss
It Is at present has reached the limit of
perfection. For that matter, nothing mun
dane or temporal baa. But the claim la
made, and I believe wltb reason, that ths
trades unloa of today le fully abreast of the
la spite of the Inconvenience of sitting
and In many Instances standing in the hot
sun, a large crowd listened for more than
an hour yesterday afternoon to Eugene V.
Debs' address on "Labor Problem."
As waa te be expected, Mr. Deba dealt
with hla subject from a socialistic stand
point and his principal attentloa was given
to the existing relations between capital
and labor. Speaking of politics, he said:
"The political parties are ail alike. I wish
I could find a man some time who la clover
enough or sufficiently well Informed, or
even a good enough liar, to chow me some
real difference betweea ths republican aad
the democratic parties, aa far as their re
lation to the working people Is concerned.
The republican party Is dominated by tbs
big capitalists and the democratic party
by the little capitalists that can't get In
among the big fellows, or find It more to
their Interest not to do so, and the result,
as tar as tho worklngman Is concerned. Is
the same. Both are devoted to the Inter
ests of wage slavery. Don't you know
that if you were earning $10 a day. It
would cost you $11 to stay on earth? The
republican party is for Imperialism and ex
pansion, and the democratic party pro
claims that policy to be an outrage. If
you are on one side or the other, I would
like to have you give me a reason for it.
A party is merely an expression of the
economic principles of the class It rep
resents. The republican party Is for ex
pansion because It has goods to aell and
wanta a market for them; the democratic
party has nothing to aell and doea not
need the market, and for that reason op
poses expansion and declares tha present
policy of the United States to be an out
rage upon the Filipinos. The more Im
perialism and expansion we have the sooner
the big fellows will get through with the
little ones.
"Competition Is war, and the big capital
ists are coming more and more to avoid
it. Every country on earth has a big stand
ing army and is equipped for wsr, but they
all agree that war la cruel and they will
not Indulge in it. In ten years there will
be no competition and It will cost you more
to raise a bushel of wheat than you can
get for it. Rockefeller Is a living example
of the fact that competition does not pay
and that consolidation does pay. Competi
tion la going, and going fast."

Some Thoughts Appro
priate for Labor Day.
times, progressing aa rapidly and as ra
tionally aa are any of the other component
elements of what we term civilization. In
the ranks of organised labor are to be
found the brainy men, the men who think, of
the several crsfts whose handiwork la the
very cornerstone of organised eoclety. To
be given a good atanding in this honorable
company la not the least ot what a union
can do for an Individual..
Wbat can tho individual do for tbe union?
Much of the answer to this question de
ponds on the Individual, for It is essentially
a personal one. Ha caa advance the cause
of his union materially by always remem
bering that he la a member, and that as
such member he cannot alone assume the
full responsibility ot bis actions, but that
a portion at least of credit or censure, as
bis conduct Is praise or blameworthy, must
and does fall on the union. If he does re
member this, be will be a better union man,
and eoneequently a better citizen. By
keeping constantly In mind bla responsibil
ity to the unloa for the benefits and priv
ileges he derives from membership, lie will
be aided in the discharge of his duty to his
fellow craftsmen and through them to eo
clety. For few men are so utterly, hope
lessly selfish that they can go on and on,
enjoying tbe advantages that accrue through
the union of men of any sort, and never
give a thought to tbe source from whence
those advantages flow. In the development
of tha Individual tbe growth of the union Is
fostered. No man Is so humble or so ob
scure but his personal conduct haa aome
effect cn those around him. Once a man.
who ached If the world would miss him., was
told to stick bis finger into a lake, with
draw It and look for the hole. True, there
le no hole left, but the sticking of that
finger Into the lake act partlclea of water
Into motion, and even that alight disturb
ance waa felt in tbe farthest part of that
body of water. So It Is wltb the individual.
He may not amount to any more than
finger thrust Into a lake, but even that
alight commotion has its effect and la felt
in aome degree by the whole. Let every
union man feel that it is on tbe Individual
that the strength aad standing of the union
depends, and that as the Individual Is a man
of character and force, eo tbe union will
have credit and Influence. Thle la the best
way to make return for the benefits de
rived by the Individual through the exist
ence of the union. Individual responsibility
does not end with mere payment of dues
cr with obedience to regulations any more
than good cltlsenehlp consists solely In pay-
meat of taxes and observance of the laws
Good union men must take aa active part
in the affairs of the union, giving to all the
benefit of their thought and experience. No
one mau haa ever yet done enough for so
clety to fully discharge his obligations, and
ao ona unloa man bas ever fully repaid the
union for tha benefits and advantages he
baa derived from membership.
