Idea Iden of ot the extent ex lent of ot the trades unions of o Chicago I We have hae several hundred unions replied Secy SOO Job but I 1 believe bellove that from BO GO to 80 M per cent of ot their mem mom members hers bUll are Involuntary ones one They The June have been forced or coaxed Into the unions and are afraid to leave leavo them If It I had hod tho the power of or emancipation President Lincoln had when lie he fr tr freed ed the tho slaves If it I I could send forth an nn edict which would enable the members of ot the trades unions of at this country to the tho ranks of at organized labor without fear Cear of or violence or ostracism 1 l firmly believe that four of ot the trade unionist unionists would leave lelle You will see POO I e that this Is the cne case Mr Job continued con If It you OU watch hatch any election In which the labor vote oto con constitutes statutes an un Important element clement That Thill vote ole In is l never navel half halt so po large as 08 Is III antic antici anticipated paled Why so BO BOIt It Is iii I because e the men voting as they please secretly s change their ballots and throw them against their own candi candidates dates dales because e at heart they are sick Ick of at tho the to 10 which they are yoked UNHEALTHY FOR FOIl NONUNION NON UNION UNIONISTS Is III Chicago n dangerous place for rOt n a workingman Who ho does not belong to a II union It t has hus been no so nt at times and I 1 will wilt not iny ny ay that It Is 18 not KO so o now under certain conditions replied Secy Job JobI I 1 could r uld cite many instances instanced of ot men lIten who Mho have been assaulted nod maimed because b they have hae opposed the tho will willot of ot the tho unions union and some urn In to which men have been bee II murdered 1 t have heard of or union meetings wh whir rh were forced to 10 assent to tho the doing of ot their lenders leaders and where they the believed behaved their lives would bo In ht danger If It they tl fJ did dad not nol There have been many outrages annon on an non as RII for tor Instance wo we had recently n a 1 published case of ot a 1 non nOli nonunion nonunion union printer who was Willi thrown to the scar floor by a R of ot union employee In one ono of at our saloons and anti the question there theca debated whether It II would bo be better bet better better ter to break the mans arms or his hili fin fingers gees gers one Olio liy by one olle lint lie ho might be In Incapacitated capacitated for work The Tho police poll co res rescued cued that lint amt Now such things may not bo be done Jone by the tho leaders or the bettor better element of ot the unions but bilL I r belleVo bellese they are Instigated ed rd by them And we awn have It alleged that there Is 1111 a band l of at lC paid sluggers here who are used as liS wrecking crews croWl to 10 commit acts of fit o violence In behalf of at or labor Tho The hospital records will verify verity tits this TRI TIll GIRL Gilt WITH TIn THE GREEN OREEN SILK WAIST In what classes cl of ot labor do such conditions conditIon obtain 1 I asked They have obtained In almost every ery class Ins wn tuns tho the reply and that even ovon among the women trades tradell unions One odd case caso was vas that o ot of a 1 nonunion girlIn girl girlIn girlIn In a factory who was guilty guilt of ot the tho heinous offense of ot wanting t to 10 earn her living In her tier own way wn The union girls wanted scanted her to Join them than but sho she would not and they then Ihen ap RI pointed a i committee to assault her Now the tho nonunion girl wore a n bright green reen silk waist wall and anti this was Will the mark murk by b which witch she eho WaIl wag known n to 10 the tho committee She was Willi followed as nil she sho went vent homo home one day dllY by he the members of at the he t committee and they remained out outside side lide s her house Waiting In to assault her het when whon she might come out Till The house housen In i n which she was living was a n two tory story s teal ilat anti sho she hind had the he upper apart m meat nt After Atter a n time n girl Irl In a green waist appeared anti and started stalled down the Iho street treet s It was sans wa about dusk She ahe had not gone tar far before the eho members of oC ti I pounced upon her and scratched and anal pummeled her to tu their taste lalle She Sho objected and screamed again and again but It was some same time before they IMy learned learne that they Uley had not got the tho wrong girl Another maid lived In the lower list Hat and a nd It was tuns sho eho who out first Trill TUN FIGHT FlOUT OF 01 TUB THE Yes continued Mr hl r women are quite ns liS bad In union matters ns nil the Ihl men Take for tor Instance a strike which occurred In the Ih plow works nt nl Springfield The Tho union men Inen left lett and nonunion workmen were put In III their places Violence was apprehended and the employers carried the nonunion workmen home In ht closed cars Some Borne of ot I the Ihl wives and a female friends of the I strikers got tot In tho the cars on the plea plen of at I wanting to 10 ride rid and attar after they were I well on their way they went for tor the time nonunion men with their They The came near killing one man maim whom they struck too near time tho heart heRrl NO VIOLENCE NO VIOLENCE NCE But Dut such cases case Mr Ir Job should not nol be bo charged to 10 the unions t said ald I They are arc merely the acts of ot hothead hotheaded h cd ell Individuals Yes Ye you ou might think so 10 was the reply rep I know knoll that the labor lenders leaders claim they dy d not counsel coun el violence but bUI every enry one hero here knows that Is III not true I have an nn Incident In my mind now which I r know to 10 have occurred but which I do not want to locate locale I wont say sa that Ihal it was or was not nOI In Chicago but It was leas In one of ot the big cities of ot the United States Slates A street car strike was In progress and amid the leader lendor of oC one of o the Ih striking unions talked thus to his men Nov Note No my m men remember In the conduct of at a this strike we want no via 10 hence jenee No N 1 Suppose for tor or In Instance stance you OU should see several joints of ot lying near the cur car truck track and some pome ono onu suggested that If l the pipe was WIlS joined and laid on the track so BO that one ono end of ot It would touch tt Ih trolley wire and tile the other tho the rail thereby forming a connection which would make a n short circuit and burn out the tho trolley trollY wire dont donl let tiny any nn such act be laid to your jour our doors II Or If It any ono one should tell you ou that you OU rould wreck the underground round cable by I throwing tacks ocko Into tho es und and I know there are piles plies of or rocks near some of thom lont lot let et such Buch nn an II act be laid nt nl your doors II Again my rimy men some nome persons persona may tell You jou ou that It If you oU throw In cement anti and sand und mud rock It II will ruin the track Now NB I understand there thero are nr warehouses art hou s near the Ihl track where there thero are barrels of oC cement and you OU know khow very vcr well If It this Is 19 mixed with tock |
