Baker Gets the Best of a Wise Boy
From the Country.
J. H. Baker went to Two Harbors last
Sunday on the Bon Ami in behalf of
the memorial meeting to be held at the
Armory tomorrow, and as Mr.. Baker
is always up to snuff, he ran across d
passenger agent Of the Omaha road who
was denouncing labor organizations as
detrimental to the interests of the
country. Mr.. Baker let him go for
while and then opened up his light
artillery, and before he got through the
gentleman acknowledged he didn't
know what he was talking about. He
stated he had been in the railroad bust
ness for % years and that was all he
knew. He came in with the excursion
lists who were here last Friday and
Saturday and was looking after their
welfare. He said. the excursion was
run barely at COST. Mr.. Baker refuted
this statement and proved to him that
the 900 people who came to the city on
the excursion paid an everage fare of
IS each, and cleared the company nearly
$4,000, allowing the company $500 for
operating expenses. He finally acknow-
lodged this too. There are some wise
people in this world.
