J0BBERs, UNION ANNUAL.
officers of the Organization Elected
for Next Year

A"A INcAa
The Jobbers union held its annual
meetinS yesterday afternoon The onIy
business before the union was the cleo.
ton OF officers for the ensuing wear
The election resulted as follows:
PRESIDENT, A. II. Lindele; vice pres
ldents, Joseph McKibben, Leonard w.
french; treasurer, James II. Skinner:
secretary, Joseph II. Beck.
Secretary Beek's classified directory
or the jobbers and manufacturers of st.
Paul, which also contains a concise
compilation of the maxims and princi-
pies of commercial law, met with the
approval of the union.
In response to question as to what
had been accomplished by the union
the past year, Charming Seabury said
the work of the union is of such ma
ture as to make it impossible to give
any idea on-hand as TO what it had
accomplished. 1t is a business organi-
cation that attends to the little matters
arising from day to day, its main pur-
pose being to see that the conditions
for trade are as favorable for the st.
Paul jobbers as for their competitors.
The matter of railroad rates received
more attention than any other thing
at the hands OF the organization. but
the questions on this subject raised
during the year were all minor. none
of great magnitude having come up,
though the sum total of the little ones
adjusted would amount to quite an inn
portant one If they all came up at one
time.
The only matter of special interest
was the visit of the Iowa merchants
here and their entertainment by the
union. Good results are being harvest
ed from this undertaking, and other
efforts of like nature for the extern
sion of trade will probably be made
from time to time. Further than this.
there is nothing of special Importance
in the plans for the future, aside from
attending to the usual every day mat

GLASS WORKERS SHUT OUT.
The Petition to Council Ignored by All
Papers
Except the Register, Which Duly
Chronicled the Fact-The Move
ment for a New Charter-The
City Debt Statement

1t has struck few people as passing
strange that no paper but the Register
has chronicled the fact that there was a
petition before Council, Tuesday night,
signed by 2O3 employees CT the Central
Glass Company, asking Council to pass
the pending natural gas ordinance. The
two petitions, askinug for the passage
of the ordinance, contained 1853 sign
ers. Why not print the facts?
The fate these petitions, favoring the
passage Of the ordinance, has met has
been indeed a hard one. In the first
place, the original consumers petition,
signed by rs people, was ignored by
Council, when the ordinance was first
reported from Committee. When the
measure came in a second time, 1t was
read one time, objected to, and laid over,
and still the consumers petition was
not heard from. Tuesday night, when
the measure came up, under the rules,
for a second reading, 10, the adverse
petition, which had so recently gotten
TO the City Hall that it was still short Of
breath, was read, but still the two
petitions fayoring the ordinance, the
consumers list of names having been
swollen to S56 and being reinforced by
a petition from 203 glass workers, re-
NAMED in the background, and they
only came to the front after the Chair
had suggested that ANY OJher papers
might be read. Even then. the glass
workers petition got a cold snu5 in
all papers but the Register, and was
not mentioned at all while the consum-
ers petition, favoring the ordinance, got
but scanJ courtesy.
Why is there so much reluctance
among our Republican brethren to give
the people hearing, and why this sup
preston of facts?

I'VE hold that the most efficient way of
protecting American labor is to prevent
the importation Of foreign pauper labor to
compete with it in the home market, and
that the value of the home market to our
American farmers and artisans is greatly
reduced by vicious monetary SYSTEM
which depresses the prices Of their prod

thus deprives them of the means of pur-
chasing the products of our home manu-
factories, and as labor creates the wealth
