The prospects for timbermen and log
gers, and in fact all who work in tho
woods, is very good this fall, says Bsde's
Budget. The demand for men for the
woods is good and wages have gore up
to something like anti~panic prices.
Word from Duluth is to the effect that
from $26 to $35 per month and board is
being offered and that men are scarce at
that price. Last year the ruling wages
for the woods were $l2 to $l8 per month,
with plenty of men willing to 90 out ct
those prices. There are several reasons
why wages should be better this winter.
The extremely low rates to Europe and
the dull times in this country induced
thousands to return to theic native land
to live until an improvement of business
cams here. Then again the general re-
sumption OF work by the manufactures
throughout the land, which cams about
with the settlement of the tariff has put
tens of thousands of men TO work. The
forest fires, however, has probably had
the most to do with the advance in
wages. The cut Of pine in Minnesota
and Wisconsin, this season will be So
heavy that every available man will be
needed to save that alone which is burned.
Altogether the outlook is very favorable
for the workingmen of the numbering
districts.
I. NJ Hamp, travelling salesman for
the firm Of Dorsn & Foote, East Side
cigar manufacturers, and who resided at
1913 Eighth street southeast, Minneapo-
lis, is reported to the police as having
disappeared in most unaccountable
manner. Hamp left home about three
weeks ago to 60 on the road and had
about $40 with him and after being out
few days was sent $50 more. Mrs.
Hamp received letter from him about
two weeks ago and that ls about the last
which has been definitely heard OF the
missing man. At the St. Charles hotel,
in st Cloud, where Hamp stopped for
few days, it was learned that he left there
one evening, leaving his grip at the Motel
and stating that he Was going to Sauk
Rapids, which be did, transacting some
business there week ago Wednesday
with E. W. Mayman. No further trace
of him csn be found. Some time ago
Hamp was employed as packer at the
Pillsbury rnill. He was member of the
order Of Odd Fellows, Foresters and A.
o. u. W., the former lodge now having
the care OF Mrs. Hamp and her four
children. Hamp's grip, which was left
at the ST. Cloud hotel, cannot be found.
