Welcome.

Among the Piutes it is always
the father,in,law that makes the
trouble. Every married Piute is al
ways glad of a visit from his
mother,in law. He welcomes her
with his broadcast grin. The arrival
of a mOther-in-law gives him
double team where before he had
only one animal. He halls her APP
pearance with delight, and, pilng
a jackass load of wood upon her
willing old back, sends her into
town with his wife similarly
packed to peddIe out the fuel and
bring back to him a supply of
money for his favorite game Of
poker. The Piute father-in-law is
of no use as a wOOd-packer, nor
will he gather grass seeds or pine
nuts.-EdgefeId Enterprise.

get them. The men who demand
eight hours and the same pay will
be sustained equally with the men
who are willing to accept reduced
pay for reduced hours. While we
believe that it would be easier to
secure the shorter hours if the de-
mand for them should be accom-
panied by willingness to accept
atemperate reduction of wages,
we leave it to the men to deter
mine in each locality the best
course to pursue in that regard"
"Are all the carpenters in the
movement"
1--WE have the bulk of them in
our organization. The Amalgama-
ted Carpenters number about 1000
but we have assumed that they
will act in sympathy with u.s.
How about the carpenters in
the Knights Of Labor"
1--WE do not fear any interference
from them. they are few in
number"
"Are the conditions of the trade
favorable for the success of the
carpenters"
ave think so. Bradstreet's re-
ports good prospects for building"
"Do you think that if the men
work fewer hours buildings will
cost more, and rents therefore be
higher:n
mo, | do not think so. There is
a full discussion of the question
! in several of our tracts: There is
one called "TheEight-h hour CUES.
ton The fact is that men are
working shorter hours than ever,
and the rents are not higher. The
result Ofthe reduction of the hours
of labor in wealth-producmg
methods is twOfold. First, the re.
duced hours necessitate futher i'm
proved machinery. Secondly, the
reduced hours make of mankind
a larger consumer of products Of
labor, and, as the desire for the
larger use of consumption of ar
ticles more general, methods of
producing the article must be
come general to satisfy the in
creasing demand, which is again
cheapening in its results. The hOd
carrier of China, where labor is
cheap, works in the same old way,
but here, where labOrer demands
81 day, the business of hOd car
rying is improved by the use of
the hod-hOIsting machinery. The
same thing occurs in the work OF
transporting materials and the
handling of materials. Then anOth-
er point is that the decrease in the
hours of labor improves the man.
AS a worker he is more effective
He does more work in his nine
hours than he would in the same
time if he was compelled to work
ten hours. Each hour of the short
day produces more work than an
hour of a long day. And so on
through all the ramifcatiOnS OF
industry. They tend to an improve,
ment in machinery and improve
ment in mans life. The workman
arises refreshed in the morning.
1t was noticed in the departments
at Washington when the long
hours of labor were in vogue that
the work of the last hour generally
had to be corrected in the morn
ing, and that when the short hours
were introduced the work was
more eff cient. Rent has not ac
fully increased since the hours OF
labor decreased. | am not at al
afraid that the favorable result OF
the eight-hOur movement for the
building trades will result in rails
ing rents.n

A FIGHT FOR A WIFE.

SION Oh WI >. REAR RAINIER.
NINCENNES, IND, March 2S.
One of the liveliest legal contests,
as well as most peculiar suits at
law, was waged at the Knox cir
cult Court this week. and ended
to-day. 1t was no more or less
than a fight for a wife. \ few
weeks ago Owen Palmer, aged
abont 30, elOped with Pearl Wolfe,
aG"d Is, and escaped to Green
County, where, OF fictitious
order to the County Clerk, they
obtained license and were mar
Tied. AS soon as the Wolfe family
got scent of the affair, Palmer was
traced down and arrested on the
charge of kidnapping, and
brought to Jail here and bailed.
The information on kidnapping
was annulled, but the Wolfe fami-
ly had got possession of the child
wife, and Palmer then took pro.
ceedings to secure her on writ
Of haheas corpus. He based his
writ on the grounds that she
was unduly restrained by the
Wolfe family, and for three days
The bitterest kind of a fight has
been going on to decide the case.
The girl is a pretty little creature,
and today was placed on the
stand, and after a great deal of
questioning declared that she
would 60 to her husband as soon
as the trial was over, but she in
sisted that she had not been re.
strained, and could have gone to
him at any time, but she promised
her old mother that she would
stay with her until the lawsuit was
settled. Cases Of this are seldom
seen in court, where a husband
sues out a writ for the body of
his wife. The trial and the end
ing thereof, was one Of the most
exciting ever held IN the state,
where the point ofrestraining was
settled and the case dismissed.
This afternoon Palmer went over
to his wife, and asked her to 90
with him. At first she refured to
20; then he turned to 90 and she
Oh impulse followed him, at which
nc crowd in the court room burst
into a most vOciferOus cheering.
One of the brothers followed and
drew his revolver on Palmer, but
was prevented from doing any
damage. They took a buggy and
drove to their home. A great
crowd followed them down the
street. The girl left the school
room to elOpe and still wears
short dresses.
THIS is from the Galveston Even
ing Tribune:
A dispatch to the Globe Democrat
from Jacksonville, Fla, says: The
Florida state board Of immigration
proposes to bring from Norway and
Sweden thousand girls capable of
doing house work giving them the as
gUrance that, in additi n to the paw
neut Of their passage, employment
WI be found for them at from s. to
SO per month" "The point of inter-
est in this experiment, observes the
Philadelphia Record, evil be the
time required to Americanize these
Swedish girls and make them dis
con'en ed with their lot"
All a mistake! The polut of in ter
est is to find out how the Florida
state board of immigration proposes
to pay a fine of $1,000 for each of their
importation and make money out of
the transaction. If this does not
come under the prOhibation Of the
anti-contract law for aliens what
does? Those Swede girls can stay al
home little longer.

From the n. Y. Sun,March "9th.
Samuel Gompers, President of
the American Federation of Labor.
although he has been confined to
his bed by sickness for several
weeks and suffers considerable
pain, expects soon to visit various
parts of the country in the work of
organization. Some we'll known
labor leaders, among them 2. }.
Mcclure, George Mcneil, and Mr..
GrottknOw, are already making
the tour in the work ofpreparatiOn
Mr.. GOmpers said to the reporter
recently, in response to an inquiry
as to the outlook for the eight
hour movement:
"The reports are very encourag-
ing. In accordance with the in
structiOns of the last convention
the Executive Council has already
selected trade to lead the
movement, to make the first start.
That trade is the carpenters and
jOimers of America. They will de-
mand the eight-hOur wOrkday on
May l. The Executive Committee
has also designated the United
Mine Workers as the second
trade"
GLOW does the Federation
propose to help these men prac-
tically?"
THE resolution of OurEXecutive
Committee says we shall extend
to them every moral and financial
aid to the very best of our ability.
After these two trades have
succeeded We propose to extend
the movement to other trades in
continuous succession as rapidly
as we can perfect the organizations
care the carpenters the best
prepared to make the demandW
"They are. They number about
1900 men. They have a good fund
to start with. Their organization
covers the whole country. They
will have the sympathy of the
building trades
"Have you any intimation Ofthe
way in which the movement will
be received by the bosses?"
ave think it will be favorable
in most places. There are some
| places where the movement will
be antagonized. The Builders
Exchange of indianapolis, for
instance, has given notice that
opposition will be made
How about the strength of the
mine workersw
"There are about 27S,000 of the
mine workers. If they see fit to
begin at once to enforce their de.
mand, as they have already indi-
Gated they intend to do, they will
not be entitled to any financial help
from the Federation until after we
get through with the carpenters"
What are the hours of the
carpenters at present.
"Nine hours in most places.
There are a few places where they
are working ten hours, but only a
! few
''Does the new movement in
clude demand for the cOntinu-
ance of the present rate of wages
i'll connection with reduced
hours"
"NOt necessarily. The plan as
agreed upon does not include the
question of wages. 1t is merely a
question of hours. We want the
wages question to be separate,
When we get the eight-hour work
day established il will be time

DOMESTIC, NOT FOREIGN.

dwin Smith Takes Hopeful View of
the Tariff BILL
loRoNTo, Sept. 4.-At the annual meet
of the Commercial Union club tonight
sident Goodwin Smith, speaking of the
<inley bill, said it would be great dis
y, and will be felt much more by Cana
I farmers than by those having nothing
,,onally to lose by it. The latter class,
aid, of course, cnn afford to receive it with
npet notes of patriotic defiance. The
<inley bill, however, he said, is not
ilted against Canada. 1t is a measure of
iestic, not foreign policy. He read let
rom Senator ShermantoE rastus Wiman.
'hich the senator said he believed that
a little forbearance and moderation
both sides of the line the feeling will be-
ne universal that special ARRANGEMENTS
reciprocity and trade should be entered
: between the two countries. The sena-
Intends, he says, at the first opportune
nent, to offer q resolution for
proclty and test the sense of the senate.
Smith said Senator Sherman's state
Its were corroborated by all advices from
Or quarters. He spoke of as ridiculous
notion that Americans are always fixing
,dy eyes on Canada and plotting against
independence. When Canada elects her
\ governor general. said he, the fisheries
istion will be easily settled, but of course
ican not expect Americans will do for
Canadian government which shows
II unfriendly to them, the same as thew
lid do for friendly government.
