Corporate greed is meeting it's
just rebuke in organized labor
Not long ago strike nearly always
resulted in failure, bat now a
strike means the stopping Of large
business enterprises with almost
an impossibility to start them ex-
except an agreement is reached by
employer and emplyee. Labor
organizations are so extensive and
men are so generally connected
with. them that it is exceed
ingly difficult to pick up a
crew Of a thousand non-union men
to take the place Of strikers. This
is the problem which now con-
fronts Jim Hill, and the public
will7be anxious to know the solu-
ton If he can solve it.-Crystal

STRIKES IN THE u. s.

1t is not to be. supposed that the
workers ofthe United States are
less alert and attentive to their, own
interests than those of other coun-
tries. Accordingly, we find, by the
third annual report Of the United
States Commissioners of Labor, Col.
Carroll D. Wright, that,the number
of strikes in this coun.sy in. 1881
was All, while in 1886 the number
was l,4l1. An analysis of the
strikes in the United States from
1881 to 1886 inclusive, made by Col.
Wright, shows that strikes having
for their object simply an increase
of wages occurredin 9,4ss establish
ments. Of these the workmen
were completely successful iii e,22s
or sc percent. Ins797 others, or
s.4s per cent, they were partly sue
cessful. So that Che workers sue:
ceeded, either wholly or partially,
in rs per cent ofthe establishments
in which they struck. In only 25
per cent of the establishments did
the strikes for increase of wages
wholly fail.
The workerssdo not seek the COM
miseration Of the bankers with
reference either to the amount of
wages they are to receive or the
quality of the money in WHICH those
wages are to bcpaid. They are the
guardians Of their own rights, and
will SO remain. They are citizens
| Of the United States, imbued with all
| the manhood and Independence
which that term implies

Probably there was a few if any

that there was q gold excitement
in Northern MINNESOTA away back
in the sixties, The late Major
Newson Of st: Paul, always an

at that time. "A company was or
ganized by him in St. Paul and a
quartz mill was taken out through
the woods on sleds7 to work the ore
from q supposed mine on Lake
Vermillion. Nobody knows
where that mill is now. Perhaps
it will be discovered by some of
the present prospectors, who may
look upon its rusteaten machinery

THE RUSSIAN THISTLE.

The attention Of county and town
ship officials is hereby respectfully
called to. the Noxious Weed Bulletin
of our Agricultural Commissioner
which is now ready for distribution,
full supply of which will be sent
to County Auditors for the beneft~6f
County Commissioners, Supervisors
Road Overseers and the public.
Our Noxious Weed law must be
.rigidly enforced and the spread of
the Russian Thistle placed under
control and ultimately stamped out;
if not, it is only question of time
when it will destroy our farming in
terests. It now exists in FIVE of our
Western States, and covers an area of
10000 square miles. Its damage to
crops last season is estimated at two
millions of dollars.
: We may, not be able to get govern
ment aid at present, though our
Senators are working manfully in
our behalf, and will no doubt succeed
in the Senate In the meantime we
must use all available means at our
command to stop the spread of the
cactus, through the prompt action of
our county commissioners and town
ship officials.

ST. PAUL, MINI, April 2o.--It is
learned from an inside source that
the Great Northern officials are
seriously studying the form of the
A. r. u. organization, and that they
fail to see how 1t will everbe practi-
cal for them to deal with it. The
labor features Of which the
new organization boasts. are just
those which will make it unsafe to
deal with. This strike has shown
that the leaders of the A. r.. u. can
not control the various grades of
men, and that an organizer or any
subordinate official can declare. a
strike on the spur Of the moment,
without any investigation as to its
Justice. Then the A. r. u. admit
ex-railway. employees, and this class
are reported to be managing the
strike at many points.
the Great Northern has never had
any trouble in getting the brother
hoods to carry out any agreement
that was mutually agreed upon, but
they very much fear that the new
organization has neither the power
nor the inclination to enforce the
discipline necessary to carry out
schedules that would be carefully
drawn up by, their accredited Off
cials.
TIED UP AT LARIMORE
LAR1SroRE, N. D.-The strike
situation is unchanged here. Only

DEVILS LAKE WITHOUT MAIL
DEVILS LAKE, N. D.-No mail
has been received from the east
since Saturday and none from the
west since Friday. Conductor
Driscoll made another attempt to
get his tied up train out. The
strikers informed him he could
take the mail and baggage cars and
carry the passengers in the baggage
car. He would not go without a
full train and put the engine back in
the round house. Major Kelly was
requested by Superintendent Evans
to assistin getting the train, out.
He called special meeting Of the
city council and decided not to in
terfere as everything is being con-
