The mills are evidently using more barrels
now, though last weeks business of the shops
does not Indicate this. They are nevertheless
exporting less flour, and more N ust go into
barrels. There is a prospect, however, of the
flour output being curtailed at an early date,
and this could not fail to have its effect on the
cooper. The shops Of the city are rather
more evenly employed at present than for
merly, only one being wholly idle last week,
while the others ran variOusly from One-half
to nearly full apacity.-Northweste Miller.
O About five weeks ago a certain well-knoWn
cooper, who held about SIS of funds of the

While the member of the assembly do not

it, and have doubts of ever seeing it again.

Lock-Out at Timberiine.

Special to the Globe
TnlBERLINE, Mont, July lion the
25th of April there was organized at this
place an assembly of the Knights of Labor
Logan M. Built, the yice-presdent of the
Northern Pacific Coal company, man of
very limited experience in the control of
men and still greater lack of knowledge of
the increasing strength of the labor move
ment under the guidance of the Knights of
Labor, took great offense at the employees
action. One DR.. Higgins, a so-called ply
sican and tool of Bullit's, watched his
opportunity and forced himself. armed. into
a meeting. Immediately the officers of the
assembly were discharged and fifty-nine
more members soon followed. Upon this
wholesale discharge the men held a meet
ing. They were instantly notified to leave
the order or accept discharge Upon
arbitration being refused. the works were
closed down and the men refused to take
their time. The trouble arises from con-
tinued reduction in the price of mining coal
and in the eXtortion of the company store
butcher shop. the running of saloon to the
degradation of their employees and main
tenance of a gambling hell for pleasure
resort. No work is being pursued, every
thing is extremely orderly, the men are con-
fldent OF ultimate success and are united to
a man.

railroad has declared lockout against men,
bers of the order. A cut of 20 cents per ton
has been made in the price paid for mining
coal and the company are endeavoring to i'm
port miners. All friends of labor are re-
quested to keep away from Timberln.
1t is hoped that Henry George will be Sc
cured to deliver the address at the Labor pic
mic at Lake Calhoun next month. 1t Is ex-
pected that Secretary Turner of the general
board of the knights of Labor will also be
present.

New Element in National Politics.

Mrs. Cleveland makes Cleveland much
stronger candidate for second term, and |
ould see at the re reption last night that
she will be able to add many friends to his
support. 1t may be that she will bring to
his administration the element of popular
'miXing" qualities which it lacks, and that
she will be the politician of the family. 1t
is true she is very young; but politicians
are born, not made. and bright woman
can do more in an hour by her intuitions and
her quick way of understanding affairs than
a man can by his reason figure out in a
week. White house life is very fascinating.
and Mrs. Cleveland will not be in a hurry
to get out of it. Whether the president
wants reelection or not I don't know.
but it is pretty certain that his wife will not
object to seven years instead of three.

THE NEWSPAPER PRESS.

What sound on the listening ear ever rang
And gave to the heart quicker beat
Than the newspaper press with it's clatter
and cang
And it's hundreds OF hurrying feet?
The rattle of wheels Of the swift-moving car
Tell the ear that man manages might
But, with rumble and roar and terrestrial jar
1t vanshes into the night.
The organ inspires with its powerful strain,
But that is memory soon;
And the reaper triumphantly moves through
the grain,
But it is quiet at night and at noon.
You may search the world over for sounds
that inspire,
But will surely come home to confess
There is naught further-reaching, more fit to
admire
Than the clash of the newspaper press.

1t will be well for labor organizations gen.
orally torealize two things: First that they
must have the support of public sympathy in
their undertakings; secondly that this pub
lie sympathy is created largely by the i'm
pressions received from newspaper reports.
1t is therefore suicidal policy to treat repre-
sentatives of the press rather wise than
fairly and politely.

To the Editor of the Globe.
Every true lover of his country should fight
the system which brings convict labor in
competition with free labor With the view
of removing this competition and at the
same time utilizing convict labor. the writer
would suggest that prison-made articles
sho uld not be sold, but distributed to the citi-
zens in cons liberation of taxes paid. BY
equally taxing every citizen each would be
entitled to an equal share or equal value in

ments are based on theory they can be
shown to be fallacious and l should be
pleased to meet man who could base
any substantial arguments on experience.
l never nave met such one.
II the prisoners do not produce anything
they must be supported, and the support
must come from the people. If they pro-
duce anything there is competition, but the
competition does not appreciably AFFECT
Tree labor, except in theory. The contract
system has many Objectionable features
but they arise when we consider the proper
| ends of a prison, discipline and reforma-
ton. AS to the future of contract prison
labor, think we will be able to eliminate
the more Objectionable features. and the
time will come when this popular cutlery
against it will subside and it will probably
be re-introduced into prisons from which it
has been expelled.
FRED A. WINES.
Rev. T. II. Wines of Springfield, ILL.,
secretary of the board of corrections and
charities of that state, said: THE compe-
ton between contract prison labor and free
! labor is but Insignificant. VTorkingmen
( see the low figures at which the prison
labor is taken and think that they
are greatly undersold. They do not
take into consideration the riSks
run by contractors and the
large amount of material destroyed by the
stupidity, carelessness or righteousness of
! the prisoners. 1t is undoubtedly the best
system as far as the financial returns of the
state are concerned but | am opposed to it
Oh theory. | do not think that the state
has the right to sell this labor to the low
est bidder who is to get all the work posi-
bic out of them. 1t greatly interferes. too,
with the efficiency of the proper reforma-
tory discipline of a prison. What would |
substitute? Well, that's hard question at
present. In theory the public-account plan
is the best, but it rarely works well in
practice. There are too many opportuni-
ties for politicians to use this insti-
tuition for their own account,
and for men to practice dishonesty
at the expense of the state. Itmay he that
something better can and will be substituted
for the contract system generally, and it
may be that this popular cutlery against it
will cease and a reaction will set in in its
favor.

For this reason it will be found to be ex-
pedient for labor unions to place men at the
do ors of their meetings who are gifted with
al least an ordinary amount of intelligence
and decency. Many prejudicial accounts Of
meetings, damaging to the cause of labor,
have appeared in the papers simply for the
reason that some thick-headed boor had no
better sense than to slam the door in the re-
porter's face because h e asked for informa-
ton.

MINNEAPOLIS MILLERS.

q Several of the larger merchant mills in the
Northwest are reported to have shut down on
account Of dull markets. The flour trade is
even fatter than week ago, fluctuations in
wheat having caused buyers to withdraw
almost entirely from the market, except to
offer prices which millers cannot afford to &C.

another decline, and were next to the lightest

The product of the week was 121. $50 bbls-
averaging 20,305 bbls daily-against 137, 800
bbls the preceding week. and 40, 720 bbls for
the corresponding time in 1885. The light
work of year ago was occasioned by most CT
the mills being closed down for improvements
