OUR BIRTHDAY. 
Topay is our birthday! Five years 
ago today THe Breeze first blew over 
Manchester and the shore-towns which 
it covers; and it has growing 
stronger and stronger until now it isa 
veritable whirlwind of business. 
The odds have been heavy—at times, 
well-nigh insuperable, —but THE BREEZE 
has experienced a steady and rapid

issue was printed in Beverly; and came 
out, a modest weekly of 16 ‘pages. 
Today it is ‘‘made-up’’ and published 
in Manchester, in an office and _ printing 
plant of its own. It comes out with 32 
pages, which, in the near future, will be 
swelled to 40. It gives all the news of 
the last week from Beverly to Magnolia, 
and that in an interesting and attractive 
form which has won wide recognition. 
About that 40 pages there is a secret.

make in the first tssue in June and read-

appearance. 
Nothing speaks more for the success 
of THe Breeze and the approval which 
it has won everywhere than the fact that 
the subscribers who first signed their 
names for the paper, are on our books— 
and the original list of 310 has grown to 
something over 2000. 
With the advertisers, it is the same 
way. ‘The ads which appeared in our 
first issue, are in the issue of today—only 
many more of them and in much more 
attractive form. This, together with the 
orders for printing of cards, posters, and 
all kinds of fine stationery, cut work and 
engraving from the towns of the North 
Shore, from Boston and even from New 
York City, is but one of many _ indica- 
tions of the extent to which THE BREEZE 
has grown and the good service which it 
gives to its readers. 
In beginning a new year, the Man- 
agement wishes heartily to thank adver- 
tisers and subscribers, through whose 
loyal support, such a growth and success 
has been possible. 
Tue “‘ calling off’? of the plumber’s 
strike at Gloucester and Magnolia is a 
most fortunate happening. ‘The strike 
practically tied up the extensive building 
which is now in progress in those places, 
and, had it continued throughout the 
summer, irreparable loss would have re- 
sulted. 
Coming just when it did, in the full 
swing of the season, the strike was sing- 
ularly inopportune. Labor unions are 
great and good institutions; but they are 
often as inconsiderate, unreasoning and 
unyielding as they charge their employ- 
ers with being. A master-plumber in 
Magnolia declares that he took several 
jobs at cost in order to keep his men 
working last winter. When the spring 
came and the rush was on, they deserted 
him, not~ because he was not paying 
enough, for he has long paid the union 
scale, but merely in cooperation with 
their striking brethren in Gloucester. 
This condition of things is deplorable, 
to say the least. Still, even under ‘such 
conditions, the Master Plumbers used 
good discretion in signing the demgnds; one

With the Town Fathers. 
The board of selectmen of Manches- 
ter at their meeting this week voted to: 
instruct the new chief of police to en-— 
force the liquor law in the town, and 
they also revoked the junk license of 
Jos. L. Simons of Salem. The board 
has taken the position previously that the 
- holder of a junk license shall drive his — 
own team; in this case Mr. Simons does 
not have charge of the business. A li- | 
- cense was granted to L. Rosenbloom. 
As tothe liquor question, the town — 
has been given considerable unjust noto-— 
riety the past week, through some evi- 
dence presented in court last Tuesday by 
a man who had been arrested charged 
with smashing up one of the fishermen’s 
boats at the town landing last Sunday 
night. The daily papers in this vicinity 
picked up the statements and wove con- 
siderable of a story about them, with the 
result the town has been given more or 
Jess publicity of an unpleasant nature. 
The whole thing, it wou seem, is un- 
warranted. 
Chief of Police Sullivan was not sworn 
into office until last Saturday night. He 
-did not enter upon his duties until the 
first of this week. The selectmen at 
their meeting this week gave him his in- 
structions.as stated above.
