city hall tonight at 1880 o'clock for the pur-
pose of organizing a union, the call stating
that there would be representatives from the
St. Paul and Minneapolis unions present to
oficiate in the work. There has been a
change in one of the dry goods firms of the

which Col. William Thomas takes an interest
Mr.. Thomas is one of Mankatos leading at
tOrneys and is a man of ample means and
business tact. He will not enter actively
into the firm for few months, but when he
does, it is their purpose to conduct a whole
sale dry goods establishment in connection
with the retail. The firm name is Mcconnell
& Thomas. The municipal campaign is red
hot. TIE Democrats and Republicans are
pretty evenly split up on Messrs. Carney
and willard. 1t has been reported for
several days that Messrs. John A. Willard of
the Linseed Oil company. Il. ID. Hubbard of
the firm of Hubbard & Co.. and W. B. Craig,

that we ave signed an agreement to reduce
wages, I'VE do hereby pronounce it wholly
