What you’re looking at

This page primarily features **advertising and satirical poetry** from an era of labor conflict (appears to reference the early 1900s coal strike involving union leader John Mitchell and coal operator George F. Baer). The main content is "Mr. Baer's (?) Poem"—two competing satirical verses mocking each other. The first, attributed to Baer, ridicules a union worker so devoted to unionism that he carries his union card to Hell itself, where even Satan calls it "an open shop" (a workplace without union requirements). Mitchell's response poem mocks Baer, suggesting his coal won't be wanted in the afterlife. The satire reflects real tension between labor and management: Baer represented coal owners' anti-union stance, while Mitchell led the miners' union. The poems use dark humor to lampoon both sides' rigidity. The remainder is typical period advertising for razors, financial advice, whiskey, and travel—with no apparent connection to the labor satire above.

POEM, Two little poems have been a source ot amusement among railroad officers in New York. They were first given to the public eye by a prominent railroad officer under the title, * All Welcome There,”| and are purported to be signed, the first | one by George F. Baer, and the second by John Mitchell. The poem credited to Mr. Baer is here given, with the question of its authorship still unanswered : All his life in a union mine He ‘d earned his daily bread ; ‘They buried him in a union grave When the union man was dead. He had a union doctor, And he had a union nurse ; He had a union coffin, And he got a union hearse. And then he went to heaven, But to stay he didn’t care; He kicked because he said that some Non-union men were there. He went down to the other place And produced his union card ; Then Satan threw an earnest face _ And studied good and hard. you do drink, di ink Tri x MBq: \ "Our old and faithful friend, We are glad to see you." — Shakespeare.

The answer, credited to John Mitchell. whose authorship is likewise unconfirmed, reads: A strong-minded person named Baer, Who is handling his coal with much care, May find when he dies, To his pain and surprise, That his coal is not wanted down there.
