But the A. R. U. Grievance Com
mittee Say He Refused an
Audience.
Statement to the Public In
Which a Big Strike Is
Hinted At
Are Opposed to That Method, but
It Is Preferable to
Slavery.

ST.. PAUL, Nov.4.-The American Rail
way union committee which has been
in the city for the last few days seeking
an interview with President Hill, of the
Great Northern railway, has left with
out having seen Mr.. Hill. Before leav-
ing the committee prepared a statement
to the public. 1t purports to explain
what the committee came to st. Paul
for, and also to give copies of the letters
said to have passed between the COM
mittee and the officers Of the road. The
committee threatens or rather promises
another strike on the Great Northern as
soon as the result of the visit to st.
Paul has been known to the several
unions.
Former Agreement Violated.
In their statement to the public the
committee begins with the signing of
the agreement between President Hill
Of the Great Northern and Eugene Debs
Of the A. R. U. at the end Of the strike
Of 1894. Every article Of the agree
ment, the men say, has been grossly
violated by the company through its
officers, from president down. EN-
ployes have been discharged without
cause, wages reduced, hours length
ened and all kinds Of abuse heaped
upon them. To Offset this a delegate
convention was held at Devils Lake, N.
D., Oct. 8 to IA last. This conven-
ton investigated the condition of
the employees and drew up q schedule
covering wages and condition Of EN-.
| ployment as called for in the contract
with the company. A committee was
also appointed to call on President Hill
and present the schedule.
They Hint ut Strike.
The committee then goes on TO say
that they came to St. Paul az instructed
by the convention, but President Hill
absolutely refused to see them.
The correspondence between the com
mittee and the Great Northern com
pany is given in full, the company
part of it being confined mainly to {
refusal to see the committee on thu
ground that some Of them are not EN-
ployes, but officers Of the A. r. U
The statement then concludes as fol
lows:
1.-The people Of this country need no
be surprised to see the Great Northern
system tied up tighter than drum
from St. Paul to the coast and remain
80 until President Hill signs the docu
ments which the men have prepared
and, and which are nothing more thar
the fulfllment Of the agreement made
in May, 1894, by President J.. J. Hill fol
the Great Northern system and Presi
ident Eugene V. Debs, for the Ameri
can Railway union. Our men are op
posed to strikes, but it is the only
means they have for protection agains
wrong and imposition, and MI. Hill ha'
left them nothing else to do, unless they
want to accept slavery"

Alex hughes OF BlSm1rk and vile
and daughter Helen have been in the
city the past week visiting their many
friends. Elk Point for many years
was their home and to Union county
citizens the name OF Alex Hughes Is
as familiar rs any name which can be
recalled. Since going to North Da-
kota MIR. Hughes has received the re-
ward he deserves and is looked upon
as one of tie ablest citizens within the
state border lines. He is at present
engaged as attorney for the Northern
Pacific railway and finds amply play
for his talents as lawyer in defending
the many cases the corporation has to
contend against. The host of acquaint-
anccs possessed by Mr.. Hughes here
are always glad to meet him and to re-
call the stirring scenes of the early
days when Observation-Disclosures the
drop of the hat was one of the best
feathers man could carry in his hat
On next Sunday Mr.. Hughes will de-.
liver public address to the old SOL
diers in commemoration OF Decoration
day which follows in q few days. He
has been engaged to speak on Decora-
tion day ut Fargo and his address on
Sunday will be similar to the one to
be delivered at Fargo. The simple an
nouncement that Alex Hughes will de-
liver I'M address in Elk Point will draw
out large crowd and we have no
doubt but what he will be greeted by
as large an audience as can get within
the building in which it is to be de-
livered.

Judge Smith listened last Friday in
Yankton to the arguments of the at.
torncys in the Vinson tax title case.
The particular question which was up
for consideration was this: SIS the
tax title o. Mr.. Wilson'S legal one.''
Attorneys Fawcett, CAN'T, Miller and
Wallace tackled the subject upon the
theory that the title was defective, and
Messrs Nichols. Ericsson and French
contended that the title was sound and
good. After arguing nearly two days
on the proposition of the value of the
title, the Judge suggested that the
army OF attorneys submit their argu-
ments in briefs, which, of course, will
he done, but those two days o. oratory
still envelope the Yankton county
court house.
For two weeks Supt. Oscar Smith has
been engaged in examining the appli.
cants for county diplomas Of gradua.
ton. He practically finished the work
on last Tuesday, and now has a list Of
ninety scholars who arc seeking county
diplomas. Never in the history OF the
county has there been SO many exam.
ined. and it indicates the excellent con-
dition Of our county schools when In
one year ninety will apply for county
graduation. The examining of these ap-
plicants has been anything but small
task, as it has required considerable
labor to visit the fourteen different
school houses selected in which to hold
the examinations. The work OF mark.
ing the papers now being in progress
the result will be known within two
weeks.

The Pains Of Rhema tism

According to the best authorities.
originate IN morbid condition of the
blood. Lactic acid, caused by the de-
composition Of the gelatinous and al
luminous Tissues, particularly IN the
joints, and thus causes the local mani
festations of the disease. The hack
and shoulders are the parts usually
effected by rheumatism, and the joints
at the knees, ankles, hips and wrists
are also sometimes attacked. Thou
sands Of people have found in Hood s
Sarsaprilla positive and permanent
cure for rheumatism. It has had re-
msrkable success III curing the most
severe cases. The secret Of its success
lies in the fact that it attacks at once
the cause Of the disease by nentrlaiz-

blood as we'll as strengthening every
function of the body.
