THE LABOR UNIONS Important Question President Gom- | pers Must Decide. TWOCHARTER APPLICATIONS EXPECTED An- Appeal to Printers for the Eight-Hour Law. CIGARMAKERS’ eee gs. UNION One of the first questions which Presi- dent Gompers of the American Federation of Labor will have to dispose of after the work at the new headquarters of the or- der in this city gets to running smoothly will be the status of the Ohio State Fed- eration of Labor. This organization, which was formerly known as the State Trades and Labor As- sembly, was renamed as above at the an- nual convention held in Columbus last week, and the first thing they did, accord- ing to a letter received. here from Cincin- nati, was to send a telegram to President Gompers asking for a charter of affiliation with the American Federation of Labor. The communication goes on to say: his. action was not taken hastily, and it is said some opposition was made, but the real object for wishing to affiliate with the American Federation of Labor is to pre- vent the organization of a rival state body. And this object is admitted to be true. “Among the labor organizations which have taken a prominent part in urging the necessity for organizing a new state body is tre Cleveland Central Labor Union, which withdrew from the assembly some months ago. Other unions have since with- drawn, and through the efforts of the Cleveland body plans have been perfected for the organization of a new state body, to be affiliated with the A. F. of L. This action was decided upon some weeks ago, but before it could be carried out the an- nual session of the state assembly was held. The plan to organize a new state body was known to the assembly, and ag it had hitherto been an independent body the assembly, after some discussion, concluded to amend its constitution, change its name and apply for a charter from the A. F. of L. The Question of Recognition. “Being informed of this action, which was so unexpected, the promoters of the new state body at once entered protest and dis- Patched a message to President Gompers to delay action until explanation could be made. Now the question arises, will the application of the state federation be ig- nered and a charter granted to a body not then organized, or will President Gompers decide that the state federation’s applica- tion should be granted and the unions wishing to organize a new body be urged to join ihe state federation? “It is certain two charters cannot be is- sued. Regarding this matter from a disin- terested standpoint, the only way in which to settle it would seem to be by granting the state federation a charter. If the unions wishing to organize a rew body had for their object the organization of a state branch of the American Federation of La- bor, then their object has been attained by the action of the ex-assembly in changing its name and applying for a charter by which it could affiliate with the American Federation of Labor, which action, what- ever the faults the old body may have had in the past, certainly indicates that it shows @ disposition to adhere strictly to trades unionism in the future. If it does not there is a remedy, and the charter can be re- voked, and it would then be the proper time to organize a new body. Final action now rests with President Gompers, who, before settling the matter, will allow both sides a full hearing. His decision is await- ed with great interest.” Secretary Frank Morrison. The friends of Mr. Frank Morrison, the new secretary of the American Federation of Labor, among the members of Typo- graphical Union, No. 16, of Chicago, have tendered him a farewell banquet, which will take place in that city Saturday even- ing next. Next week Mr. Morrison comes to Washington to take up his new duties At the headquarters of the Federation. Mr. Morrison, his friends claim, scored a nota- ble achievement in gaining the election to the position of secretary of the Federation. It was as delegate to the recent convention that he made his first appearance in the organization councils, and his only previous experience as a delegate was at the Colora- do Springs assemblage of the International Typographical Union. The only office he ever held, outside of committees in his own union, was that of secretary of the labor congress. Appeal for the Eight-Hour Movement. Mr. P. J. Mass, general organizer of the International Typographical Union, has is- sued an appeal to printers to support the eight-hour day movement, in the course of which he says: “As the Colorado Springs convention of of the I. T. U. submitted another short- hour law to the referendum, and we are about to vote on the proposition, it is to be hoped that the printers, who are the pion- eers of organized labor, will at the age of forty-six years adopt a short-hour day. “Nearly every other craft has adopted some measure looking to the shortening of the hours of labor, and there is no denying the fact that we are way behind in this line. When it comes to advocates for a shorter workday for somebody else, the English-speaking Typographical Union can always be depended upon for ‘word jammers,’ but when it comes to voting for a shorter workday for ourselves, a synop- sis of past events shows too plainly that we vote against our interests on the ques- tion, just as we do in politics. “The contrast between the hand compos- itor of a few years ago and the machine compositor of today furnishes sufficient argument for those who take the side of shorter hours—not alone for newspaper men, but book and job men as well. It is well often to aim at the unattainable, as we thereby make attainable what would otherwise be unattainable. Give men shorter hours, and you give them more time to study and learn why bread is so scarce while wheat is so plenty. Work of Foreign-Speaking Craftsmen “We (the English-speaking printers) ought te hang our heads in shame when our foreign-speaking craftsmen and their attainments in the line of shorter hours, ete., are mentioned. Take the German Typographia for example. Though but twenty-one years old, that branch has had an eight-hour day in successful operation for the past ten years, and it was obtained with very little trouble. True, their dues are much higher than ours, but their va- rious benefits are much greater. “Another. A year and a half ago I or- ganized.Hebrew Typographical Union No. 217, in Chicago. As soon as the charter ar- rived they declared for a nine-hour day, and had no trouble in obtaining it. “Still another. To cap the climax for at- tainments among foreign-speaking prints. Bohemian Typographical Union of Chicago, No. 330, ranks first. That union is an amalgamation -of old No. 214 and a local Knights of Labor assembly, who were brought together by me last spring. Pre- vious to amalgamating both factions work- ed ten to fourteen hours per day seven days in the week, at wages ranging from $6 to $9 per week. At the first joint meet- ing, held April 30 last, a scale of wages was adopted. Tlie scale called for an eight- hour day, $2 per day for time work, 35 cents per thousand ems for piece work, and abolished work on Sunday. This scale was adopted at 1:30 on the morning of May 1 lest, and put into force without any trouble at 8 a.m. the same day. “AN the short-hour legislation the En- glish-speaking printers have enacted and enforced in nearly half a century is a six- day week and maximum eight-hour day for orning and evening newspaper men. On Becember 4 last the German Typographia, by a referendum vote, adopted a five-day week in all machine offices under its juris- |. Cigar Makers’ International Union. AND BON particular. ommendation.

Candies packed in attractive boxes ready for shipment | F St. ee ee ee ee Union it is learned that the various unions affiliated with the body have by a referen- dum vote indorsed every amendment to the by-laws and resolutions adopted by the con- vention held recently in Detroit. There were, says a letter, ninety-five amendments and thirty-three resolutions passed by the convention, and, according to the rules of the union, they had to be indorsed by a majority of the 28,000 members voting to make them a part of the laws. The resuli is remarkable from a union standpoint, and shows that the men who are guiding the organization along the sometimes rocky path of trade unionism are in thorough touch with the rank and file. “During the past four years there have been few labor organizations that have not lest members, but the organized cigar mak- ers have increased in membership. The out-of-work benefit paid by the union is admitted to be the principal reason for this remarkable showing. Because of its im- portance every convention of the cigar makers have many amendments bearing on the question submitted for action, and the last was not an exception. “The organization is run on business prin- ciples. The offices are in Chicago, where the president, Mr. George W. Perkins, is located. Under a wise provision of the constitution of the organization, the presi- dent is not handicapped by a secretary or cther official, but he has complete control of the business of the organization. He is held responsible for the carrying out of all instructions issued by the membership, but when his decisions are objected to by any member an appeal can be taken to the ex- ecutive board. “President Perkins is a _ straightout trades unionist, without any frills. He is not a dreamer in any sense of the word, but is a practical, painstaking official. Many attempts have been made to drag him into politics, but they have always failed. In labor circles his advice is al- ways sought when an unusually difficult problem is to be solved, for the reason, it is said, that his decisions are never in- fluenced by friendship or warped by preju- dice. His term of office will expire Decem- ber 31, 1901.” Special Laborer Examination.
