"OH 10 DIBIT
INGLE SAMl'EL IS TEI.UXG
BROTHER JONATHAN, THAT IT
IS ESSENTIAL FOR THE
REAL BAFKIIONE OF THE
<'Ol'NTKY TO ORGANIZE
AM) DEMAND RECOGNITION
There are a number of unorgan
ized workers in None ; m n who
have to labor for a living at some
occupatibn subsidiary of the mining
industry as well who belong to no
union who have been drifting in the
labor world without any attempt to
join their fellows for their own
benefit and with those whom they
unite. What is the matter with
unionizing all these men—what is
(lie matter with getting all together
for the benefit of the workers in this
community—to obtain and maintain
recognition of the union, and $5.00
and board per day, for an eight
hour work day.
It is absolutely necessary for the
working class to thoroughly organ-1
ize, to raise the standard of living— .
and to educate all workers toward j
I hat end.
w uat isr tpo matter with a gem nil
agitation toward making Nome a
100 per cent union town?
It is a union camp now; there are
plenty ot union men here to form
tlie nucleus of a comp! . organi
zation which with weight of num
bers, solidarity and unity of pur
pose, coukl do an immense amount
of good for all, the workers being
in fact all powerful.
What is the matter with all work
er.; sinking personal differences, ancl
getting together to effect a general
Jnuiprovcmcnt in all conditions.
.All union towns are the most
prosperous; all union towns can
how a greater degree of comfort,
< happiness and well being for not only
the workers in one industry, but
for the workers in all organized
Industries. That should he the
slogan. "Nome a 100 per cent union
town.” With powerful organations
all centered on the one purpose, the
welfare cf the wage workers, that
welfare will come.
As has been said there are
•enough union men here to form the
nucleus for this campaign of active
organization.
One cannot do it. nor can a score
of men; but all the union men each
acting even In a small way to secure
tlio unorganized, to secure back
again those who have once ben
union men but who have wandered
far afield; who have found them
selves powerless in their oneness,
■and compelled to take what they
can and be thankful—-for each union
ni ,n today to secure one other m m
1 r and those' secured to secure
another, and the work is done.
An endless chain of agitation, or
g nization and education is kept up,
'which will result in powerful unions
which will in the nature ol' things be
invsistabhy. With an eight-hour
day in union camps, and a ton-houi
day in non-union camps what could
be a more striking argument in favor
of unionism than that.?
Get together for the int rests ot
the working class; for the interest
of the man who toils—for your own
interest, and the thing is done.
77"in this camp the unorganized
remain unorganized conditions must
in the nature of things deteriorate i
for the workers; and without or-'
ganization the workers will find I
themselves helpless to prevent any I
such consumation. With Nome a!
100 per cent union camp, no worker <
will have to humiliate himself to oh-[
tain a job; no worker will have toj
prostitute his manhood to get a
[chance to work; no worker will have
| to kow-tow and be afraid to speak
his mind before the boss; no worker
will have to accept conditions that
are provided, and if he says one
word be fired; no worker will be
afraid that what he says will “come
back to him,’’ and that the job he
had hoped for will be denied him.
With Nome a 100 per cent union
camp, this sort of thing will cease;
and the workers possessed of over
whelming strength will be able to
demand and making the demand be
heard.
It takes all kinds of union men
to make a world, but a man’s duties
towards the union does not begin
| and end when lie provides himself
■with a card. The real union man
will at aii 'Imcs exert himself to
get more members to join the labor
organization to which he belongs,
thereby continually assisting in the
building up and strengthening the
oganization.
It is. a fact that one can plainly I
see, that just a little exertion at the
“Psychological” time is all that is
necessary to make Nome just what
is suggested—a 100 per cent union!
camp.
Very little work on the part of the
individual members, and one man by
each m w member, does the work
and the one hundred p. r cent is
attained.
Who wmnts things to get worse
for the Worker?
Who wants conditions bad as they
are to deteriorate? Who does not
want things to improve-for the work
ers, first, last and all the time?
Recognition of the union is the
paramount issue among the miners,
as well as other organizations in
this camp today. This can only be
achieved by organization and still
more organization. If the unions
would keep what they have; if til
members of the unions would retain
what they have gained— and en
force recognition of the union—
that can only be done through or
ganization, and the more organiza-j
tion the better.
When each man sets in motion
some little energy to boost along
this agitation campaign to effect u
standard of 100 per colit organiza
tion for Nome—that time will that
work be accomplished. Very little
arguments are required to show the
■workers the benefits of unionism.
They are so patent, so self-evident,
ro directly relat d to manhood and
independence, are so insuperably
connected with improvement of con
ditions for each and every worker,
that none can long resist the appeals <
of a friend and the arguments of
sensible men who know what union
ism has done.

it is the only thing that will assure
success.
' All can boost the work along—
the faet3 of the case give it a nat

it a boost, and the fact of organiza

the workers all over the world give
it a fine boost along. But we must
help the work along—every man
must help the work along, and with
out the aid and co-operation of each

“demon rum” and the flood gates of righteous antagonism against
•John Barleycorn is going to sweep him into everlasting oblivion.
Thousands of men in the country o\er are going to shortly find it
impossible to get their daily, most of them their hourly “nips”
and those fellows are going to look up the best bottled drink they
can get to wet their whistles with. They are not going to “get
oil" booze, and drink any pink “tea slop” Oil no—they want
something with a delightful relish—a sparkle and a zest and the
