Oruanize at Sandstone.

John Swift, of Minneapolis,
and Gus Olson, of Duluth,
organized three new unions at
Sandstone last Sunday. They
were the stone cutters, with
thirty-tive members out of
thirty-eight men working at
the trade in the town; quarry
men, with about 100 memb ers,
and the steam engineers.
A rousing meeting was held
and good speeches We're made
by Messrs. Swift and Olson as
well as many Of Sandstone's
business men who are anxious
to see the workmen organized.
They say it will make business
better. Wages are deplorably
low, the steam engineers get
ting but $1.35 per day and work
long hours. ! =-z
President McEwen, of the
Trades Assembly, was to have
been present but was detained

0sTEOPATHY.
The Science of Drugless Heal
ing.

Osteopathy is scientific method of
curing disease without the aid of drugs,
appliances or the surgeons knife.
It consists of series of manipulations
of the various parts of the body, stimu-
lating nerve centers to action. removing
pressure from them along the lines of
their distribution, arousing nerve force:
freeing the circulation of the blood and
other fluids Of the body, thereby equal.
izing the forces in every organ and tissue
so that harmony is restored in every
part of the system.
Where this science has been practiced
and thoroughly demonstrated it has its
greatest number of advocates. The
safe and sensible manner of the applica-
ton of it's principles, appeals to the most
skeptical as single teatment often
affords sufficient relief to demonstrate
it's effectiveness. Henry R. Fellows and
Helen Fellows, regular graduates of the
Northern Institute of Osteopathy, Min
neapolis, Mimi, have opened offices at
21O-21l Providence Bldg. for the prac-
tice of this science. They come with
very high endorsements as to their abil-
I ity as operators. Those who have tried
| other methods of treatment without OBJ
tanning relief should investigate Osteo-
patty. The public are cordially invited
to visit their offices in the Providence
Bldg, where any information pertaining
TO the science of Osteopathy will be
cheerfully given.

Testimonial.

To Michael Gleason, Greeting:
We, the members of Division 81, desire
to express our gratitude and apprecla-
ton on your retirement from the presl-
dency of this division. and to testify to
the just, honest and fearless manner in
which you have conducted the affairs OF
the office you have 50 long and so ably
filled.
During the seven years you have
been connected with the Duluth Street
Railway company as our fellow work
man, we have always found you dill
gent and conscientious in discharging
your ,luties and kindly and courteous
at all times. It is with deep regret that
we lose so valued and tried leader.
We are all too apt amidst the hustle OF
every day life, to forget Him upon
whom our very life depends and to
think only of worldly success, while we
lose all thought of the life for which our
present existence should be but a
preparation. But we know too we'll
your innate goodness of heart to believe
you will ever be spoiled by success. We
realize that you think goodness prefer
able to greatness, and have happy con-
fdence in your integrity of character
which leads us to think that you will
recollect how great virtue is reliance
in God, and how noble self-reliance is
the result of such virtue. We there
fore take this means of testifying to the
esteem in which you are held by us
who best know your many sacrifices
and efficient work in Labor's cause, and
we earnestly commend you to all NOM
bers and friends of organized labor, as
one who under all circumstances, if put
to the test, will always prove steadfast
friend, and one ever ready to further
and protect the interests of those that
labor. And to insure to you in the
future the success we all feel you so
richly deserve, you have the best wishes
of

The Labor EXCHANGE.

Considerable interest is manifested in
the labor exchange and many inquiries
Of what the labor exchange will engage
in are being received as we'll as PROPOSE
tons for revenue to secure the necessary
machines and raw material to engage ir
business. Among the most conc Use and
practical propositions submitted is giver
below which comes from the city fire
men and is both practical and beneficial
Believing that the time has now ar
rived when Duluth's manufacturing
interests should be developed and real.
izing that considerable good would re-
suit from concern conducted upon the
cooperative plan, thereby giving those
who receive steady salary, opportunity
to invest part in growing industry and
securing profitable employment to others
now idle, that we suggest that plan
similar to the following be adopted:
GENERAL PROPOSITION. -
First: To form a cooperative organ
ization for the purpose of operating a

merchantable commodity, that may be
hereinafter determined. -
Second: AS far as practicable, said
cooperative organization will conduct
it's business upon the labor exchange
principle; and each subscriber to this
organization hereby agrees to become a
member of the national organization.
Third: AS a means of inauguratin
this venture, the subscribers agree to
subscribe $500 per month for period
of ten months to start a fund to begin
business and to be used as payments
upon the necessary machinery, said fund
to be placed in the charge of an execu-
tive committee to be hereafter elected.
as provided by the rules of the labor
exchange. ... e.. 81, @...s
Finally, we the undersigned do hereby
guarantee the payment of $500 per
month for the period of 10 months, for
the purposes as set forth in the three
preceding sections, and will promptly
pay to the individual selected to receive
our subscriptions upon reasonable no.
tice-as pledged. .

Curiositfes of Sound.

:. ...@ ,f' CuriOsitfes of Sound.
Sight, we know, is obstructed by
fogs and mists, and now it has be.
come evident that there must be al
times in the air sort of "sound
fogs,'' which prevent sound from
carrying, just as mists prevent one
from seeing objects at a distance.
In different parts of our islands
there are places where sounds travel
in most mysterious fashion. The
whispering gallery Of st. Paul's is
probably the best known instance,
but there are others even more curl
Gus and interesting. There is well
at Carisbrooke castle, in the isle OF
Wight, the water in which stands
over 40 feet below the ground level.
Yet if you drop a pin into it the
sound of it's striking the water is
perfectly audible to the listener.
At st. Adams cathedral, before
the'restorations were made, the tick
of an ordinary watch could be heard
from end to end of the building,
though more than 200 feet in length.
The evening gun at Plymouth has
been heard at Ilfracombe, 60 miles
away, and shepherds on Salisbury
plain have heard practice firing OF
big guns off Portsmouth.
Still more extraordinary, a salute
fired off Holyhead was heard over
at Kingstown, in Ireland. Sound
travels over water more easily than
land. You can on calm night
hear piano over mile away across
lake, and two people in boats can
talk with ease at distance of over
100 yards. But it is in the arctic
regions, during the calm of intense
cold, that sound travels in the most
wonderful Northumberland Maya

FindIey Heard From.

VANCOUVER, B. g., March Is, 1885,
S. G. Akin, Duluth, Mimi: We are
now on British soil. intended writing
before, but we have been very busy,
and had little idea Of where we were at,
or When we were going somewhere
else. We should have left Vancouver
Tuesday and on account of not having
the proper invoices and having to re-
pack all our stuff again, we were as
busy as bees up to that time. Since
then we have been taking things easier
writing letters and getting used to camp
life. Our tents were pitched the second
day after our arrival here, and az Old
Prob has been very kind to us we have
been much more comfortable in them
than while we were at a hotel.
All the boats in the Alaska trade are
from three to ten days late and cur
boat the Pahshun is now scheduled for
Saturday. With me here are Nc
Laughlin, Spitz and J. A. Dalglish Of
the B. OF L. E. The rest of our party
took the Cleveland out of Seattle on the
trip prior to the one we were booked
for, and bought their outfits on "a
hours notice. They'll have Canadian
duties to pay and didn't get their goods
any cheaper than we have. and we will
probably get through just as quick as
they will.
Organized labor on the coast is not
making much of a display of itself. In
Seattle I spent couple of hours trying
to "get next" but couldn't find a point
of beginning. I think the first fellow I
tackled was a non-unionist and inten-
tionally sent me on the wrong scent.
We were only there a day, and half
and had our hands full all the time SO I
didn't get time to make another effort.
Here the typographical union has mat
ters we'll in hand. The scale on ma
chimes is S21 per week, but there are
plenty of extra men. On the whole,
however, there does not seem to be
much of that sentiment which in Du-
luth it is the custom to refer to as ''or-
ganized labor" Another thing, should
say that there is plenty of work here,
particularly in those lines of trade con-
nected with the rush to the Yukon
country; but the numbers of Chinese
everywhere apparent would not indi-
cate very favorable conditions ID any of
the trades where they form factor to
be considered.
We have been so uncertain about
where to have our mail directed. 1 got
the only letter this morning that have
had since leaving Duluth. Hereafter
letters written to Dyea, Alaska, right
away, and little latter to Tagish Lake,
upper Yukon country, will find us in
time at least. We will leave word at
Dyea about having mail forwarded, so
letters directed there will be sure to
reach US.
Am going to depend on you and the
Labor World to keep posted about Du-
luth. don't expect to go back unless
make what the boys call my pile, but
have not lost interest in the scenes
with which I have been familiar for the
past five years and half. I can't ex
pect you to give me much of your time
but you can at least drop me few lines
once in while and let me know how
goes the battle. Give my regards tt
