TO FIGHT LABOR UNIONS.

Chicago Employers Form n Combination to
Carry on n War of determination.
CHICAGO, May ia war of exter-
mination against sympathetic strikes
in the building trades has been de-
clared by a combination of Chicago
contractors, employers and other bust
ness men. A serious conflict with or
sanized labor is feared before the cru
sade is ended. The employers say they
desired end through cooperation
and arbitration with the building
trades council and affiliated unions,
but that, if peaceful means fail,
general lockouts, wage reductions
and even legal proceedings will
be resorted to in order to force the
labor organization to terms.

People who crilicise the PROPOSE
tion to place duty on hides
brought into the country will per-
haps be interested in the fact shat
the value of hides imported since
1890 is in excess of the importation
of wool, upon which the vast ma
jority OF the people of this county
agree that there should be a duty.
The importation of hides from 1890
to 1895 inclusive, amounted in
value, according to the American
Economist, to $l76, 1913, 1877, while
the value of the wool imported IN
that time is given by the same
authority as $13S, 1862, 844. .-Tren-

The Acantha has always con-
tended that the republican pollcy
of protection would sooner or later
break the solid south. Their in
dustrics need protection to properly
develop them, and the old pre-
judices of thirty years ago will en-
'irely disappear if the republican
party giveto them proper recogni
ton, Recently Senator McEnery,
of Louisiana, a democrat membe
of that body, voted with the repub-
licans for the sugar schedule. He
openly avowed himself a protec-
ZIONIST, and declared that tariff
views should not constitute the
test of democracy. The wedge has

The Wool Market.

The latest advices from Boston
indicate firmer feeling and a
more encouraging outlook in the
Boston wool market. While there
is no advance in the quoted rates,
here is a feeling that th ST. rates
ar tnurc iiabl,, 10 ad tance than t.
decline. Tee Boston market is
described by the Cotton and Wool
Reporter in its las issue as follows: !:
After speaking of the firm cons
ditions prevailing in the Loudon
market and the prosI ect of short
crop 10 Austrrlia this season, it
says
"ln view of the foregoing, a
a firmer and more confident feeling
prevails in the trade. No one has
succeeded in securing higher prices
for bis wool as yet. however. bu,
al believe that, with good de-
mand, it 3an only be d question of
time as TO when prices will be
higher Some offers have been
refused, which would have been
accepted, say a couple of weeks
ago. Wool, in fact, is firmly held,
except where parties have over,
bought. Such weak spots as there
are, which are very few indeed,
manufacturers have not been slow
in taking advantage of. From
now on, Il more active vool trade
and firmer prices are expected
among the mem bers of the trade,
almost without exception.
The market quotations in Boston
last week ranged from 8 to IA
cents for Montana wool OF the vari-
Gus grades. This would Indicate
a range Of from to 12 cents in
Great Falls. 1t has nearly always
been our ex perience here, however,
that the Great Fails wools brought
considerably better price than
the'average MAJ ket reports lndicat-
ed. One reason for this IS the fact
that north Montana wo Is are
generally of better quality than
the woods grown to the south of us.
On firm and rising market surh
as prevails today the wool grower
can reasonably lock for better
prices than those indicated above.
We would not be surprised to see
an average price of about II cents
this year which would be just
about what wool brought two years
ago.--Great Falls Tribune.

A Mechanical Pitcher.

Prof. Hlnton's patent base ball
pitching gun was a decided success
Thursday says a press dispatch
from Princeton, NJ. Eight strike
outs, one base on balls one wild
pitch and four safe hits IS the
record in three innings in the first
fair test of the machines practica-
bility in an actual game. Mines
representing the Ivory club ana
Tiger inn, two of Princeton s social
clubs, played ID match game, using
the gun to pitch for both teams,
and the contest attracted a large
crowd of spectators, prominent
among whom were Mrs. Cleveland,
with a party of friends: and many
Princeton professors, who came to
see with what success Prof. Hin
toms invention would meet.
The gun is discharged by the
batsman, who when ready for the
bali to be delivered, steps upon an
electrical intercepting plate, CON
nected by wires with the trigger OF
the cannon. The speed with which
the ball is thrown is regulated by
compressed air, aud pronglike
projectors from the c1nnon's
mouth import rotary motion to
the sphere when discharged, pro-
ducing a curve in anv direction,
according as the position of the
projecting prongs is changed
There is but one serious defect in
the operation of the machine that
will prevent Its use in games, and
that is the long time required for
reloading. This was especially
noticeable in this game, because
the intercep'ing plate was out of
order and the frequent delays
thereby necessitated did not allow
the game to be finished. Three
innings only were played, During
the first inning the batsmnn were
timid about standing near the plate
and The big curves caused them to
jump back, but as the gun threw
strikes in every instance they
pIucked up courage, stood closer
to the plate. and succeeded occa-
sionaIiy in making safe hits. The
game was uninterestlng excepting
for the novelty of seeing the pit
chers box occupied by the machine.

c. E. Trescott, Publisher.

Two years, and in some cases,
three years, after the last demo
cratic administration took charge
of the country's affairs, democratic
papers and democratic speech
makers claimed that the depression
in business from which the country
was suffering was caused fir, m the
effects of previous republican in-
competency and that the democrat
ic party could rot be expected to
cure all this IN two or three years.
Now some of the very same papers
talked in this strain are finding
fault with the republican party be-
cause it does not undo the work of
democracy in three. months Con
sistency never had a home in tie
dem pcrtic ranks: The democratlc
policy seems To CONSIST, of denun>
ciatlon Of everything that is not
labelled democratic and does not
provide offices for democrats. And
its arguments are mainly based on
the fact that the republican party
has not pu5 down in three months
trusts and monopoliys which demo
cracy could not or would not at
tempt to suppress ii Its whole
four years of power. .-Ravalli Lee
