Woods Wages.

Lumberman: The logging season
will be late in opening, and the ne
cessity for acknowledgement Mime
sofa will not be as great this year as
last. In spite of these facts the labor
market opens no lower than it did q
year ago, with labor scarce and
wages high. From $26 to $35 are the
wages now offered for woodsmen.
This of course includes board. The
agreement entered into last summer
by loggers to prevent abuses Of con-
tract by woodsmen have not yet be-
come operative. Nor are they likely
to until the labor market is a little
better stocked with men seeking en-
ployment.
The question naturally arises as to
where the men have gone who used
to solicit work at the lumber manu-
facturers' offices at this season. If
there had been a large harvesC in the
northwest the scarcity could easily
be accounted for. But the men are
not on the spring wheat farms. This
scarcity has prevailed throughout
the year thus far. Some saw mills
have not been able to obtain night
crews, and others have run short
handed, much to their disadvantage.
The Alaskan gold fever has doubt
less had much to do with drawing
off OF unmarried young men OF the
woods and mill class. If these have
returned they have generally come
no farther than the west coast where
woods, mill and other work are
plentiful. Railway extension is
also taking a large body of men. In
this state about five hundred miles
otnew road will have been completed
this year, and this work will be
pushed as late as possible. Further
than this, there are innumerable little
activities that in the total silently
absorb large volume of common
labor. Many laborers feeling this
general demand for their work and
drawing good pay when they work
are not looking for the strenuous
life'' OF the woods. If they can stay
in or near the city and existcomfort-
ably through the winter they will
choose this rather than the work in
logging camps.
II the log cut shall be small the
coming winter it is possible that
after cold weather has setin the sup.
ply may equal or surpass the demand.
This will change conditions. But as
it is. not much relief from last win
ter's labor troubles are expected by
loggers the coming season.

A few bets on the presidential
election are still being made at
a5or s to 1 against Bryan. It
isclaimed that even at this the
Bryan end is being taken by
hose who earlier placed large
sums on Mckinley at 2 and q
to l.. BY thus ''hedging" they
practically close the deal, and
have a certainty on their profit,
regardless of the result. That
is what prevents odds in any
election betting from going
too far. While the defeat
Inf Bryan is practically assured,
The professional betters will
hedge their former bets as the
odds increase.

Even the Herald has taken up the
cry that Gravel should be elected to
give the city fair representation in
county matters. 1t seems that the
$500 voters in the country districts
Of the county are not entitled to
any thing from the standpoint Of the
Herald and the Democratic party.
But 1t is a pretty nervy argument to
put before the voters of the county.
The Replicans OF the Second ward of
Little Falls will stand by their party
nominee for county commissioner,
Robert Tedford. The fact that he
does not live in the city does not bar
him from receiving the party sup
port of the people OF his district who
live in Little Falls.
No Democrat in the county stands
any chance Of election without the
practically solid vote of the Polish
citizens, Yet the Democratic leaders
feel so certain that that element in
the party can be held in line that
they are constantly denied any rep
resentation on the county a. ticket.
The Polish Democrats demanded
representation this year on the
county ticket, and the abrupt and
emphatic refusal to grant them any
consideration will be properly re-
sented on election day. The Ger
man candidates need all the Polish
votes-and the German candidates
want about all the Offices. They
viii fall far short Of getting what
they are after this year. ~ =,

George Wilson will make a first
class sheriff. He is a loyal Republic.
an and has done much to help the
party and candidates in the past.
He should receive the loyal support
of all Republicans. Such men as
Wilson are entitled to the honest and
earnest SUPPORT of his party voters.
The Democrats are promising how
they will make fairer distribution
OF county nominations in two years.
II the voters who are dissatisfied
with the deal the Democratic leaders
put up this year will aid in defeating
the Democratic county ticket it will
dem onstrate that g. fairer distribu-
ton of county nominations is alb
solutely necessary.
Two years from now the Demo-
Gratis are going to square" all those
people who object to the ''hogging"
game carried out by the Democratic
county convention. But this "con"
business has been played once too
often. The voters of the county will
turn down the Democratic county
ticket this fall and demonstrate that
a party cannot afford to ignore all
just demands for fair representation.
As the fight for the office of reg
lister Of deeds progresses George
LaFond is again demonstrating his
capacity to get votes. A few Dem
ocratic leaders are vicious in their
opposition, but their attacks on
LaFond do not weaken him with
the people. The Republicans are
not going to throw down LaFond
in order to crafty the spite of his
Democratic critics. Hall Ia not q
strong candidate, and Vasaly's
frantic efforts to provide him some
kind Of q job will not bring him
enough votes.
