A Meeting Mainly Devoted To Con-
Gract Prison Labor.
j. NJ. Minor occupied the chair at the
labor meeting at Garfield hall last evening
and every seat in the hall was occupied
The cOnvict-labOr question was the main
business before the meeting. and several
nails were driven into the coffin being pre-
prepared for the ''prson ring" q. a. La
fayette, chairman of the committee on that
topic, submitted lengthy verbal report
giving the results OF the recent lnvestiga-
tons. He asserted that the residences of
w. Il. Merriam and Mr.. Cross, cottages
at White Bear lake and several res
licences and Offices i'll MINNEAPOLIS
had been finished in hard wood
either gratis or at a merely nominal price as
a reward OF bid for influence. He said that
he had written a letter to the Dispatch
stating that the state prison at Saltwater
had done what no other state prison would
dare TO do for fear of mob vengeance
that OF establishing agents and warehouse
in different parts of the state to further
their competition with honest labOr-and
that the latter had not been published.
j. NJ. Minor Of the committee added a
few words and read q statement made to
him by certain gentleman giving a few of
the numerous contracts for woodwork filled
in the two cities during the past few years
by the Saltwater company. One of them
was in DrscOlls Summit avenue residence.
In which a job of hard wood finishing was
put in for 81, 700, when st. Paul bids on the
same work were from S12. 900 to SIS. 0O0
In 1882 and 1888 a large amount of work
was done in the residence of William p.
Merriam gratis. Not long since, he said.
Mr.. Bruno Beaupre gave contract amount-
ing to $1,000 on a job on which St. Paul
parties bid $1,000 and $4,000, showing that
by this labor bids could be made TO
shut out out those employing other
men. Mai. T. NJ. Newson said
that there was no doubt that
capitalists had amaSsed fortunes out of the
sweat and toll of worllingmen who were
as poor as ever. He thought the present
growth OF labor organization would result
in creating an equilibrium between the two
forces labor and capital He moved that
the report OF the committee be adopted and
that it be instructed to act with the like
committees from the Trades assemblies of

STREET SAYINGS.

Il see you published this morning." said
gentleman yesterday, THAT X. b. Lang
don couldn't make speech. i heard him
make one Once-an impromptu affair, but
connected and forcible. 1t was up on the
Canadian Pacific at point called Moose
Jaw. LangdOn had a contract ON the road
and lot of mules had just been shipped
up. Among the animals was a natty
little critter which no one could
put harness on. ANY num-
Der tried it, but each failed in the attempt.
'PShaw! said LangdOn contemptuously,
after watching proceeding for some time.
its strange that out of the 200 men at this
camp, not one can put a harness on that
mule. Let me show you how ana he
tackled the beligerent brute. LangdOn
stuck TO the work for more than an hour,
each attempt on his part being followed by
series Of fearful and wonderful eyOlutiOnS
on the part Of the mule which never failed
TO free the brute from the harness. Finally
LangdOn fell back, struck an attitude. and
if ever you heard man make a speech and
accompany it with eloquent and expressive
gestures that man was Mr.. LangdOn. He
was at no loss for words and they poured
forth for about twenty minutes ia an I'M
ceaslng flow of eloquence, 20 the ediiication
OF the lockers on. At last he threw him
self down and wound up with prayer for
a revolver 10 kill the mule. May be Mr..
Langdon exhausted himself on that occa-
sion and has never since shOne forth orator
ically, but l can vouch for il that he has
made at least one fervid and forid
speech"

non-strikers from working. The situation
is very serious, and troops are protecting
the miners. The works Of MesSrS. Cocker
ell at Seraing, five miles from Liege. are

Tracks are Cleared.
The INCONVENIENCE of no street cars was
probably felt as much yesterday because it
was Sunday as it would have been on other
days, but there was no help for it and
people had the alternative of staying at

Supt. Scott of the railway lines. got out all
the available force of drivers bammen and
trackmen, amounting 10 fully 100 and set
to work to clear the tracks Mud and ice
was so frozen into the rails that nothing
but pickaXe would get it out and
the work was therefore slow and tedious.
AS the day progressed, however, the warm
sun was considerable help. About the
middle OF the afternoon the Lafay cite
avenue and West Seventh street line was
started. a little latert he University avenue
line was set in motion, and at O o'clock the
Summit avenue line started up the cars
which had been left on Tenth street for
more than tH enty-fOur hours, being sent
off in different directions. The Dayton's
bluff line caused more trouble than the
Others on account of the quantity of mud
running down the hill, but this line was
started in the evening, and all the cars
were again in motion. 1t was noticeable
that the cars were well filled during the

He's lunatic astray;

Probably no concern in the country has
adhered more strictly to the determination
to achieve success by the liberal use OF
printers ink than has the Brown Chemical
Company of Baltimore, Md. Starting bus
mess about five years ago, they have ex.
pended over s., 500, 600 ia the preparation and
circulation of printed matter, more than
advertising. All this has been done to make
known the virtues of their celebrated Iron
Bitters.
As might be expected, very large sales
have resulted from this enormous outlay,
making it about as staple in many drug
stores as is flour at the corner grocery.
Like all good things, it has been largely
initiated. They claim there are unscrupu-
lous manufacturers who cater to just this
sort of trade, and some dealers SO lacking
in principle, that because q greater profit
can be made on fraudulent than on genu-
inc medicines are willing to delude tho
public by pushing off Iron Tonic BitterS
and other Tonic Medicines in place of genu-
inc Browns Iron Bitters. The company,
finding these frauds practiced SO extensive
ly and all other means inadequate, have at
put stop to them. Suits for heavy dam.
ages have therefore been commenced
against Non-Secret Medicine Manufacture
ers, for selling Iron Tonic Bitters; and 9TH
ers for selling Browns Iron Tonic; a drug
gist in Baltimore, for selling Iron Tonic Bit
ters with his name upon the label, which
medicine was made by Non-Secret Medicine
Manufacturers, and also claimed as an i1ni-
tation. The Brown Chemical Company de-
serve success in these suits, as it is high
time those who have built up large enter
prises to success, should be protected from
those who live not by their own genius and
effort, but by copying and counterfeiting
things that have been made standard and
valuable by others.
