UNION MEANS BUSINESS.
Clerks Are After. Those Who Keep
Stores Open After IIours.

The Clerks union means business. At
the last. meeting a committee was ap-
pointed to visit the various merchants
eof the city who persist in keeping their
stores open at night and on Sunday,
and request them to sign a petition to
close. Out Of six stores who are keep
ing open the following have agreed to
close 8. Gittelson & Co., 400 West Sup
erior street; J. & G. Polinski, Manhat-
tan building; B. J. Cook & Co., and
Kenney & Anker. -
4 There are two firms who have not yet
signed. The Hub, owned by William
,Abrahamson was visited but Mr.. Abra-
hanson sr. would not agree to it until
he had seen his son.. 1t 10 possible that
this Arm will agree to close with the
rest. The Van Guard Clothing Co., in
the Mesaba block, have positively re-
fused TO close. The matter will be
brought before the Trades Assembly,
and it is likely that this firm will be
advertised as unfair. A good strong
agitation against this firm for taking
advantage of its competitors in busi-
ness, and compelling its employees to
work every night in the week would
soon put 1t in the "rear-guard." It is
hoped that the public will support or
ganized labor in its contention for the
early closing Of stores. r.

fares and taxes There would not me-
cessarily be any more politics in this
than tn our water and light department
today, and hence it could be run on
purely business principles. Mr.. War
rem, or a man of his ability, could be
secured to managed q municipal street
railway as economically a. he does for
Mr.. Lowry or Mr.. MendenhaA. =.
The people of Duluth are we'll edu-
Gated on the municipal ownership pro-
position. Their work Of the last ten
years is bearing fruits. Do they intend
to stop with the single ownership of
the gas and water plant, or will they
move on? Will they permit themselves
to be ridiculed. discouraged and hamp-
cred by the "toadies and lickspittles"
Of the element seeking for special privi-
leges? Or will they manfully step to
the front and say, that this practice
Of giving away the property Of the peo-
pie Is wrong, and it Is their intention
to remedy it, by giving it back to the
people, to whom 1t rightfully belongs,
as quickly az it is Judicious to do so?
The platforms Of all the political
parties declare for municipal ownership
Of the natural monopolies. Do the
parties, which are run by politicians,
really mean what they say, or is that
plank inserted merely for catching
votes? If the latter be true then the
party that ignores municipal ownership
should be severely condemned for trifl-
ing with the honest desires Of the peo-
pie, Every voter should be in q posi-
tion to be absolutely Independent of a
party. There is nothing in American
politics which encourages corruption in
office 80 much az the growing DISPOSE
tions Of citizens to become slaves to
their party. There is also nothing that
will tend to make politics purer, than
the absolute freedom in thought and
Independent. action Of the American
voter.
In the coming campaign what will
the people do? Will they permit false
and insignificant issues to become para
mount, which are brought to the front
by scheming politicians for the pur-
pose Of 'diverting the minds Of the peo-
pie from the only real municipal issue,
which il the public ownership OF public
utilities. There never was q better
opportunity for the people to make
their true desires known than today.
Let 10 act accordingly. u

The Labor World may be poor kick
er. but it seems that some OF its work
Is bearing fruit. It not only aroused
the council, but 1t put the street rail-
way company on q, faster gait. Work
on the incline 10 partially under way.
Several men are employed on the hill
top getting out the old machinery and
erecting a house where the electric car
and the incline will meet. This work
could have been done some time ago.
but the company was in no hurry until
1t was lacked up q bit. Now, with
the utterance of an occasional COM
plant it is expected that they will push
the work OF reconstruction with some
every move, and at a meeting of the re-
sidents Of Duluth Heights last Sunday
It was resolved that they keep 4 close
watch on the progress Of the work, and
should 1t at any time be allowed to
lag they will be heard from. The citi-
xens have perfected permanent or
ganization, which is well Differed, and
are prepared to enter strong complaints
when necessary. = -.-.
In order that the land companies
which are heavily interested on the
Heights shall take some interest in the
work on the incline, 1t was resolved
that the tenants will pay no more rent
until the incline is put into service.
This is supposed to be strategic move
to hurry matters up some.
The street car company is certainly
getting its share Of complaints. Down
town residents are not satisfied with
the service, and are complaining
through the press with considerable
force. It Is wonder that the company
does not take a tumble to itself. and
endeavor to please the public If the
present dissatisfaction continues where
will 1t end? ,'-''
There are many people In the city,
and not few lawyers, who are Of the
opinion that there is a flaw in the pre-
sent franchise, and with proper fight
in the courts the people stand a good
show Of reclaiming that which was
given away without their consent = IT
this can be done, a municipal street
railway could be operated here, which
would give to the people the. very best
.eeryfee at the lowest cost. There
