Petition TO the Public.

We, the retail clerks OF Audubon, Iowa, being
organized for the purpose Of effecting the earl J
closing OF the stores, have. at u meeting Of the
merchants and clerks, held in the y. N. c. A.
hall on Monday evening May 18th. 1902, adopt
ed the following resolutions:
WHEREAS, we believe the stores are kept
open longer than necessary. thereby prevent
ing the clerks from having any time for recrea-
ton and study, and depriving them of the OPP
portunity Of attending to religious and social
affairs, and that the business done after 30 p.
M for the accommodation of the few purchas ers
who occasionally buy goods after that hour,
does not warrant the great hardship and in
justice done to the retail clerk and
WHEREAS, the opposition to the early closing
movement appears to be the opinion that the
public demands the keeping OF the stores to q
late hour therefore, belt
RESOLVED, that we, the clerks, ask the ear
nest cooperation and aid of the purchasing
speak good word for the object in view.
We. the undersigned having read the above
resolutions, heartily endorse the sentiment
therein expressed. and will so far possible
do our purchasing before the hour OF 30 p M,
Saturday excepted, and will urge Others to do
the same.
The above petition 10 now being pre-
sented to the public by the Retail
Clerks Of Audubon for the public opinion
aud signature. In the short time that
the petition has bsen circulated it has
received in the neighborhood Of 400 sig
natures. In glsncing over the list, we
find that great number Of the signers
are farmers, so this goes to show that
the farmers as we'll as the town people
can see the uselessnes OF thirty or more
clerks being kept from the hours OF $50
to $3.50 p. IN with practically nothing to
do. They are willing to do their trading
during the day, OF on Saturday nights,
when. Of course, the stores will be open
until ten or eleven o'clock.
The clerks felt that this was the
just way Of presenting the question. as
it would get the opinion Of the public
who do the trading and would show the
few merchants who hesitate about clos
ing, that the customers wish to be fair
with the clerks. The petitions can be
found in the stores, upon the counters.
When coming into the stores, il you
cant find the petition, ask for it. Look
over the list Of names. sign your own
and it will be greatly appreciated.

Senator NJ. A. Hanna in Golfers
Weekiy,) 20
There gathered in the city of New
FORK on the 18th of December last a
body at mee-Whose real earnestness of
purpose bodied wondrous good for the
country. The object of this board was
the discussion of measures for the dong
away, as IansA as possible, of conflict
between capital and labor. Represen-
tatives of the laboring men appeared on
the board; capitalists were there, and
prominent lawyers, clergymen. bank
ers, economists and men from almost
every walk of life. All came gladly to
the conclave inspired by the idea that
harmony between labor and capital and
our national prosperity were synony-
nous, and that no sacrifice should be
too great, no effort too monumental,
10 bring industrial harmony about
They were urged on by the understand
ing that upon the establishment of
closer relations between the employer
and the employee the future of society
IN this country In no small measure
depends.
The earnestness with which these
members entered upon their praise
worthy object. the unselfishness they
exhibited in giving themselves TO the
cause, bring realization of the fact
that the spark. which the National
Civic Federation famed into life when
they appointed this committee, is fam
ing up with promises of untold benefit

II We SIN LET'S SIN PLuCkItY-
Cst, Louis Republic.

Gov. Taft's conviction that the
United States government should
frankly announce to the people OF the
philippines its intentional holding the
Islands indemnity, giving to the Fill
plnos a quasi independence when they
are considered fit, at least has It's foun-
dasion of honesty. -
The United States gOvernhleut should
certainly not be ashamed to make an
open announcement of It's PHILIPPINE
policy. A reluctance TO do this in
Itself amount to a confession of belief
IN the wrongfulneSs Of the policy. If
knowing that we are determined to
deal with the people OF the Philippines
on basis of utter disregard of their
rights, we v; delude them with vague
and misleading promises OF ultimate
national independence we shall be
guilty of a peculiarly contemplate sort
of cowardlce the cowardice of the
strong robbing the weak in the gulse Of
a benefactor.
BY all means let Us tell the Filipinos
exactly what we intend to do with them
and their islands. There IS no faintest
danger 70 us in such frankness. The
game Is in our hands The people with
whom we are dealing arc utterly help
less. Don't lets rob them Of their
: 5ernes with a sajtflus plea that, we
are doing it for their own good. Lets
despoil them in the light of day and
without disguise as the strong des-
polling the weak. Then. anyway. we.
shall not be hypocrites
