IN LABOR'S
........FlEl.D

Local labor leaders are just now active
ly discussing new p ase in the situation.
Gen Merriam, of the regular army, is
now i'm command of the Occur dAleae
district where the trouble with the min
ers resulted in the blowing up or several
mills with dynamite and the loss OF a
number of lives. In consequence of this
,Gen. Merriam has issued orders forbid
ding the employment of miners unless
they will renounce membership in the
miners union.
In view of this fact a number of proml-
nent members of various unions admit
that they have been seriously thinking
the matter over. They say that they per-
ceive a drift in this affair toward a mill
-tary government, instead of government
by injunction. If Gen. Merriam, they say,
can do this thing in Idaho, another mill
tary commander can duplicate the event
in Illinois, New York or Pennsylvania.
And with a steady growth of militarism
II Is very likely to be done whenever there
is a pretext for it. Attention is called 10
the fact that year ago Gen. Merriam
would hardly have dared to inaugurate
such a drastic measure as he has now set
in motion.
Why" said one trades unionist, Gen.
Merriam seems to be treating the Idaho
miners very much as Gen. Otis is treating
the Filipinos."
Commenting upon this affair the Omaha
World-Herald has this to say:
Gen. Merriams intimation that labor
unions are responsible for labor riots Is
without foundation His suggestion that
the formation of labor unions be made a
crime stamps him as man unfit to wear
the uniform of a soldier of the republic.
Merriam evidently misunderstands his
position"

A MAN SAID.

''I don't believe you can arrange food
so that it will go to rebuild and nourish
the brain Grape-Nuts is a most delight
full tasting food, but can't understand
how you, expect any certain food to be
appropriated by. any certain part of the
Eody."
A good honest skeptic and well worth
attention.
Actual results are better than any
theory pro or con. Grape-Nuts are be-
ing eaten by millions of Americans and
any Interested person in any city of
America can satisfy himself by ques-
tioning his neighbor as to the results of
the use of Grape-Nuts.
The testimony Is given over and over
that after 10 days use there comes
feeling of strength, sturdiness clear
ness of intellect and power of mind
that is unmistakable.
There is a reason.
Thinking uses up each day parts Of
the filing of the cells in brain and
Nature demands albumen and natural
phosphate of potash (not from the drug
store) to make new the soft jelly-like
substance which is used as the filling
of these brain cells.
Grape-Nuts contain these elements
direct from Mother Nature and pre-
pared jim the form of a most delicious
and dainty food practically pre-digest-
ed and quickly absorbed into the system
The hard stubborn facts are that
Grape-Nuts do build brains.

available by the council will be made
and the board will consider first those

funds which we will have, but there are
some important matters which will be
