Oft in sin to stray.
Little deeds OF kindness,
Little words of love,

........FHEa-D

The labor organizations of Minneapolis
will picnic at Spring park, Lake Mime
tonka Sunday. The trades and labor
council under whose auspices the picnic
is to be given, in departing from the
custom heretofore prevailing of obserV-
ing labor day by the usual parade and
picnic, evidently were imbued with the
Idea that the better the day the greater
the councils action. Whether the coun-
ellis action will meet with the approval
of the rank and file of organized labor
throughout the state will probably be de-
termined at the Red Wing convention of
the Minnesota state federation of labor
next year. AS an excuse for its action,
the committee having charge of the pic
mic assume that if it was herd on labor
day it would interfere with the success
of the industrial exposition to be held
the first week in September and would
also detract from the effectiveness of
the parade to be given by the labor
unions of that city on Monday evening,
Sept. 4. That the picnic will prove a
winner, however, there can be no doubt,
as the trades unionists of Minneapolis are
noted for making a success of whatever
they undertake. The programme is an
elaborate one, including a base ball game
between the pressfeeders and the coopers
machine workers three-fegged race,
ladies' spoon race, putting the shot, fat
mems race, prize waltz and cake walk.
The contests will be confined to union
men, their wives, sons and daughters.
Extra trains will be run to accommo-
date the crowd expected The St. Paul
unions have been invited to be present
and it is expected that large number
of the boys will be on hand and take
part in the sports.

SMITH MAY ESCAPE.
Several Mitigating Circumstances
Join in His Favor.

There is possibility that State Agent
Whittier may withdraw his application
to the district court for The commitment
to the penitentiary of Herman Smith on
the ground that the man had violated
the terms of his parole. The woman,
Mrs Mcmillan, with whom it was charg-
ed Smith had sustained Illicit relations,
has left the state. and there are a num-
Der of mitigating circumstances in con-
nection with the case. Judge Jaggard
has interested himself in the matter,
and as under the strict letter Of the law,
he would be compelled to send Smith
back to serve six more years, a punish
ment that more than fits the offense
the state agent has been urged to with
draw his request.

to encourage the different unions to bring
out their full membership in the parade
on Labor day was the topic of converse
ton at Assembly halls last evening. The
carpeters and cigarmakers are enthusi-
astic over the matter and members of
both organizations say that they will

portion to membership Typographical
Union No. 80 meets Sunday afternoon at

AS soon as this instance of fresh spite
became known nearly every wheelman in

nation, fully vouched for, comes
from South Carolina to the effect
that Senator Benjamin Tillman is
not going to have walk-over in his
race for reelection next year. Law
renee w. Youmans, of Hampton
county, hos announced his intention
to. compete with Senator Tillman
for Senatorial honors, and will follow
the usual style of campaigning in the
Palmetto State, challenging the Sen
ator to joint debate on the hustings
Such contest promises to be a
vcritable duel with "pitcbforks," for
Mr.. Youmans is successful farmer,
a typical wool.hat Democrat, and
said to be one of the best rough and
tumble stump speakers in South
Carolina. He is a Bryan, free silver,
Anti-Tillnan Democrat, and is gen.
orally regarded as moro than a
match for Senator Tillman in any
style of discussion tho latter may
employ. Mr. Youmans has never
before aspired to public office, al
though ho takes an interest in 10Th
State and national politics. His
friends claim that he is personally
moro popular with the wool-hat con-
tingent all through the State than
Till nan is, and he has displayed keen
political sagacity in choosing the time
at which to antagonize Senator Till
man. 1t is said that the Senator has
arrayed against him all of his former
lieutenants who holped make hmi all
powerful in the State. With gene

In view of this fact, if not on tho higher

would bo glad to have you say so frankly.
In that ovont ! will thon know how to

is unable to enforce tho law and stop tho
violations of it, and State constables have

the State board Of control that tho OK
