THE DEAR DRUMMEKS
Make Arrangements to Attend
State Fair and Exposition.


State Fair and Exposition.
A number of the st. Paul travelling
meu met at the Merchants last evening
to make arrangements for some sort of
demonstration at the state fair. A
letter was read from President W. M.
Bushnell, of the state agricultural asso-
citation. rendering his regrets for not
being present at the meeting and ex-,
tending an invitation to the North
western travelling men to attend the
fair in body on Sept. 9, which day
would be set apart as Travelling mems
day." 1t was the unanimous decision
Of the meeting to accept the invitation
and to make all the necessary arrange
ments for a grand display. Another
letter was received from W. G. Byron,
president of the Minneapolis exposition,
which also embodied an invitation to
the travelling men to attend the exposi-
ton. A committee consisting of John
Forest, |. Ledderer and W. 81. Hach
man was appointed to confer with the
Minneapolis travelling men regarding
both invitations. The travelling men
will endeavor to make their day one of
the features of the fair, and will make
arrangements for an extensive parade.

turn" along Dayton avenue. An artist
was on hand and secured lifefke
Ske.ch of the scene which startled the
residents of that usual sedate and deco
rOus avenue. Owing to the eXigencies
of space the artist was compelled to
keep out an alarming batch of
mongrels which came up in the
rear of Mr. Braden's trail, as well
as the wild frenzy which the women
got into in their frantic efforts to get
their offspring indoors. Notwithstand-
ing the width of the avenue, owing to
the gait of Mr.. Braden's new acauisi-
ton and his peculiarly Jerking style of
horsemanship, both the roadway and
sidewalk, with a portion of frontages
were required to safely career him
along. The residents are considering
the advisability of requesting Mr.. Bra
den to serve each householder with a
notice the next time he passes that way
for equestrian exercise. They will then
be prepared for the worst.

Three. delegates from the Section
Socialistic Labor party were pres
ent and offered resolution stating
that their party would do all in its
power to aid the destitute miners. They
suggested that the members of the local
Turner society lie asked to give their
hall for mass meeting for the benefit
of the miners. This brought about con-
siderable heated discussion, as great
many of the trades assembly men were
10th to gointO anything that smacked of
socialism. They did not think they could
affiliate with the socialists. A compro-
mise was finally effected. and it was de-
clded to allow the executive board of
the trades and labor assembly to inves-
tigate the matter and ascertain whether
the hall could be secured or not.

The differences which have already
sprung up in the ranks of the Wage
Farmers Cooperative society is not
very reassuring for its success. The
idea of labor colonyis largely Utoplan.
There have been many such schemes
launched upon the world under as
favorable circumstances as that OF the
wage earners', but they have all failed
failed simply through the discord
which has grown up among the pro
motors of the schemes. With the SEEDS
of dlscord Sown at the very outset OF its
career, the wage earnerS have an I'M
certain future before them, unless they
rise equal to the occasion and sink all
personal differences for the common
veal. Unless such course is adopted
by the wage earners for the credit OF
the city, if not for their own, it would
be we'll to abandon the attempt to eStab-
