Brother Mesmer, for over forty
years a member of the Tobacco
Workers’ union, during which time
he has held all offices within the
gift of his organization, is a visitor

The readers of the Union Banner
will regret to learn of the death of
Mrs. Estes, known to many during
the life of the Women’s Union Lea-
gue as one of its most active mem-
bers. She was a true helpmate to
a union man, and her husband,
“Doc” Estes, has always been one
of our most energetic workers in the
cause of unionism. She leaves a
husband and a little three-year-old
son, who have the sympathy of or-
ganized labor of this city.

about October 15th, 1905, the defendant
refused to live or cohabit with plaintiff
as his wife, nor would she even occupy
the same room with him; that on Oc-
tober 15th, 1905, said defendant ran
away from the plaintiff with a man whose
name is A. H. Hutchings, and that since
said time plaintiff has neither seen nor
heard directly from said defendant.
That such conduct on defendant’s part
constitutes such outrageous and cruel
treatment towards plaintiff as to ender
his longer living together with defend-
ant as her husband, unbearable and in-
supportable.
Wherefore plaintiff sues and prays
that upon a final hearing he be decreed
and granted an absolute divorce from
said defendant, forever dissolving the
bonds of matrimony now and heretofore
existing between them and for general
and special relief, at plaintiff’s costs,
etc., as is more fully set forth in petition
filed. . --

A man’s unionism can be cor-
rectly sized up by how regularly
he attends his union’s meetings.
President James M. Lynch of the
International Typographical Union,
concluded his visit to Texas Tues-
day after havin investigated con-
ditions at Fort Worth, Dallas, San
Antonio, Austin, Houston and Gal-
veston, passing through Dallas
Tuesday morning on his way to
Indianapolis, I. T. U. headquarter.
This is the first visit of an inter-
national officer since the eight-hour
Strike occurred in Texas, and leaves
with a well defined plan for con-
tinuing the struggle which will be
explained to unions affected in time
tor the next regular meeting.
He says nothing will be left un-
done by the executive council to
give Texas the support needed and
as long as needed.
This, however, is not news to
the union printers, but the contest
will from now on be directed by
headquarters.
In making this trip over Texas
an opportunity was given to study
the character of our international
president, and it is not too much to
say that the greatest fight in labor’s
history now engaged in by the
printers of this country and Canada
have at their head a man who in
every way measures up to the task.
He is a strict trades unionist and
a fighter. A fighter, however, who
believes in peace while peace is
honorable, and is one who will ex-
haust every effort to maintain peace,
and in his Galveston address to the
printers he explained how the ex-
ecutive council had tried in every
way to bring about adjustment of
affairs without a strike but that the
Typothetae would not even give a
hearing.—Union Banner.

who do the typographical and

Program are daily complimented
on the general appearance and
well stocked advertising columns
of this publication. Messrs J.
Singer and Son are responsible for
this and their many years experi-
ence in the advertising line enables
them to give the advertising pat-
rons of the Grand the very best
run for their money. The Galves-
ton News, commenting on the Pro-
able and desirable to herself and her 1
husband, but that notwithstanding such :
conduct upon her part, defendant shortly
after said marriage, began a course of
cruel, tyrannical and brutal treatment
towards this plaintiff which has been of
such a nature as to endanger plaintiff’s I
life and physical and mental well-being
and to render her living longer with
defendant as his wife unbearable and in-
supportable.
Plaintiff further alleges that defendant
was a man of violent temper and frequ-
ently got drunk and seriously threaten-
ed plaintiff’s life and abused her in the
most blasphemous and outrageous man- ।
ner and she has had reason to believe
and does believe that her life would be
in danger at his hands should she furth-
er or longer live with him as his wife.
Plaintf further alleges that some three
or four years ago defendant deserted
plaintiff and remained away from her
for a period of eight months during
which time he in no wise contributed to
the support of herself and their children
and again upon the 16th day of February,
1904, he deserved plaintiff with the ex-
pressed intention of abandonment leav-
ing her without a cent of money or any
property or means with which to pay
for her living and that of their children
though she was at that time ill and un-
able to work;that since said 16th day of
February 1904, plaintiff has neither seen
or directly heard from the said defend-
ant, that upon the 23rd day of June 1904,
plaintiff gave birth to a child which
child lived about six months, and that
defendant never even saw or heard or
concerning his youngest child and did
nothing towaids its support or to defray
the expenses of its last lines or burial.
Wherefore plaintiff sues and prays for
a decree dissolving the bonds of matri-
mony now existing between them and
that she have the care and custody and
control of her two children and for costs
etc.
