Another Big Gas Well.

At depth of $50 feet the lola Gas
Company last Monday just before
noon struck a fine flow of gas in their
we'll on east Madison avenue a block
west of the w. H. Richards home.
The well is a good dry one, and the
flow will measure about s, 900, 900 cubic
feet every twenty-four hours.
Now if this was Chanute or Coffey-
vile the Kansas City papers would
give the item about a quarter of a col

Such items sent from lola are boiled

Kansas outside OF possible four, and

Taken Under Adylsement.

The injunction case against the Ft.
Scott, lola and Western, brought by
Messrs. Swan, Ponsler and Shields
lasted all day Saturday and until ten
O'Clock at night. Judge Stillwell then
announced that he would take the mat
ter under advisement and give his
opinion later. Nothing developed
during the hearing, both sides being
allowed to tell all they could and not
being hampe7ed in the matter of evil
dence.
The center of the fight was about the
franchise, whether it was legally
granted and whether it was trans
ferred. Judge Thompson argued that
the franchise was invalid and that
G zen il valid at first it was invalidat-
ed by its transfer from the partner
ship between G. C. Nelson and j. r..
Henderson to the corporation known
as the Ft. Scott, lola 81 Western rail
way. Judge Dillard maintained that
the franchise was legally granted and
that it was never transferred; that
there was simply achange in the mem
bership of the partnership. Stacks of
law books six feet high were used and
the rights of corporation to transfer
franchises thoroughly threshed out,

What The County Press has to About
the Important Transactions of the
Past Week.


Fire is the sworn foe of Victor Dahl
who lives north of Savonburg. Two
previous fires burned his house and
last Friday afternoon his small son
set fire to his barn and it burned with
the contents, 81 bales of good broom
brush, 5000 bushels of corn 40 tons of
hay and llax straw. 1t was u severe
loss to him.
The business men Clipped in and
Savonburg boasts of new town
pump.
w. j. Waters, of Uniontown, has
bought the Fuller & Richards drug
stock at LaHarpe and will increase
and conduct the business. The retir-
ing firm will remain in LaHarpe.
The LaHarpe council has granted to
the new brick company the right to
pipe gas from the city limits and it is
expected work will soon begin on
plant that will employ forty men.
Numerous business men own stock in
the plant
The News says LaHarpe can hardly
see out for railroad material. The
Ft Scott, lola and Western has ties
aud material piled high, the electric is
completed to town and recently the
Frisco people were there again look
ing around. But LaHarpe says come
on everybody.
Moran Herald: Some peculiar and
amusing tales are told on the people
who are just beginning to learn how
to use the gas. One man is reported
as having used poker pretty freely
on stove burner the other day before
he thought. A lady is reported to
have blown a mantle into about mil
lion pieces in blowing out the blaze
while burning wax off of it to keep the
cord on which the mantle hangs from
burning in two.
Robert Muecke died suddenly at his
home south of Humboldt Saturday u
week ago from a two days illness with
pneumonia.
Good news came too late The
Humboldt Herald says: The dis
patches state that an increase has
been granted in the pension of Mrs.
Lydia Merriam to IS u month Mrs.
Merian's death occurred recently, as
noted in these columns.
About two years ago Humboldt had
a chance to get the shovel factory now
at Thayer, which makes from 100 to
400 shovels Il days day, and employs
number Of men. And the Union
breaches a strong sermon on the text.
Humboldt's fire department don't
get enough exercise to keep the grease
on the hose cart axles from caking.
For fear the gas may run low this
winter Humboldt will organize a de-
batting society
Humboldt Union: The well drilled
Friday of last week on the James vii.
son farm southwest of town was no
good, At IA depth of about $50 feet
the salt water was encountered and
he hole was abandoned. The new
ocation for another prospect hole is

COMING LAb0l DAY
COMMITTEE HAS ORGANIZED AND
PREPARATIONS UNDER WAY.
Promises to Eclipse All Previous Oc-
Davis IL Chairman-Place For the
Picnic Has Not Been Decided Upon.
Lakewood Being Considered-Is a
Good Place, Would Catch a Crowd.

Duluth viii celebrate Labor Day. AL
ready we are assured that it will be the
greatest ever held in the city. The
committees are at work and promise
to eclipse all former efforts. There will
be no hitch between the central bodies.
The Building Trades Council and the
Trades Assembly have both appointed
q committee of five each. They are as
follows, From the Building Trades
Larson, ]. w. Richardson and Leslie
Coad. From the Trades Assembly, Geo.
Davis, Henry Dworschak, ]. Gauthier,
Joseph Pratts and E. ]. Meagher.
Every one Of the above are known
workers. They will attend strictly to
business from now until their work is
done. On Monday evening last the first
meeting was held and the COMMITTEES
organized with G. M. Davis as chair
man, J. w. Richardson, secretary, and
Otto. Sturm, treasurer.
The place for the picnic has not been
decided upon, but several places are
being considered. One of the commit
teemen said yesterday that there were
four places under consideration. They
are Fond du Lac, Lakewood, Lester
Park and Park Point. In choosing the
place two things will be considered,
first the reputation of the grounds, and,
second, the best place to make money.
With the Trades Assembly it is a
business proposition. For the proceeds

of Labor Day picnics are the means of
carrying on the work Of the year. This
work consists in organizing, securing
legislation and aiding unions when in
trouble. It is highly Important that a
place Is secured where some money can
be made, SO that there will be no i'm
pediment in the work laid out by the
Trades Assembly. >s .:s.
The Assembly has tried several places
in the past, but only one of them yield
ed any great returns. This was Fond
du Lac. Last year. however, on ac-
count Of the sale of intoxicants the AS
sembly was not very well satisfied, and
the majority Of the committee are
averse this year in going to any place
where liquor is sold. OF course they
turns. as is said before, it is highly i'm
portant that that be considered.
President Davis, of the Trades AS
sembly, is getting up the official pro-
gram, and is meeting with much sue
cess. The line of march. for the street
parade. and the position of unions has
not been decided, but every union in
the city will turn out. President Davis
will be marshall of the day, and Tim
Timlin, - president of the Building
Trades Council, will be deputy marsh
ALL, having charge of the Building
Trades division.
An attempt is being made to get the
Rev. G. N. Driver, of Mankato, to de-
liver the Labor Day address. Mr..
Driver earned quite a reputation as a
champion Of labor at the convention Of
the Minnesota State Federation of La
Dor at Mankato. last month, and the
Duluth boys want to show the people
of Duluth what a preacher is capable
of doing for labor.
An effort will be made by the Secre-
tary of the State Federation of Labor
to have the clergymen of Duluth preach
a sermon on labor, on the Sunday prior
to Labor Day. This is in accordance
with a resolution adopted by the con-
vention of the State Federation at
Mankato, and it typified after Memorial
Sunday, observed by the G. A. r.
The labor world. [volume] (Duluth, Minn.) 1896-current, 1901-07-27

for the purpose OF making room for
new men we send out. and then divide
the fees. This has been one Of the
practices Of the private bureaus that
have greatly wronged the workingman.
and which has helped to make him an
enemy Of private bureaus. The demand
for free public labor bureau is merely
a demand for protection, and the only
people on earth from whom they expect
protection stand ready to turn them
down. 81 r.
The fear Of spending $500 Of the peo-
pies money is q trifile compared with
some of the extravagances we have
noted In the past. Who pays the taxes ?
Is it not the workingman? Maybe he
does not pay them directly but he GER
tainly does in increased house rents,
for every time taxes are raised a dollar
rent is raised two dollars. s..

ITS NOW PRESIDENT BONN.
st. Paul Man Elected President, Of the
Stage Employer Alliance.

Stage Employer Alliance.
c. H. Bonn, of st. Paul, was elected
president of the Theatrical Stage EN-
ployes' National Alliance at Toledo last
week. Colonel Bonn, as he is generally
known, is one Of the best men In the
Minnesota labor movement. He has
been a delegate to the conventions OF
the Minnesota State Federation Of La
Dor for a great many years, and has
been prominently connected with the
st. Paul labor movement. He does not
belong to that crowd known as the
KNOCKERS Club Of st. Paul, that has
done 50 much to embarrass the move
ment there, and hence this reward.
Colonel is booster, and not q knocker.
There is no place on the roster of la
Dor officials in either state or nation
for "knockers." If he had been one lie
would never have been elected to the
honorable position he now holds. On a
recent trip to Chicago we had the
pleasure o. long conversation with
the cc;cr';. He was a discouraged
man. Activity in the labor movement
had made him an enemy in the eyes OF
some theatrical managers. There was
no work for him at his trade, and he
was really at sea as to how he was 60
ing to make living. His national or
ganization recognized his true worth
and past services; his sacrifices and
loyalty, and they elected him as their
national executive.
We doff our hats to National Presi-
III H.
the affairs Of the National Alliance be
crowned with success. He is now reap.
ing what he has sown. Labor never
fails to reward true men, OF to relegate
false leaders; The colonel has passed
through the darkness of his work, and
is now entering upon the dawn. W.
recited the old saying to him just OF
we parted in Chicago, That the dark
