for work, and 2,63S sought the as
sistance of the office. to secure help.
OF those seeking employment, 1868
were males and l,571 were females.
The total number of positions filed
was 2,199, of which 1921 were for
males and l,07S for females. OF
these, 4S7 Of the males and $50 of
the females went TO fill positions
with hotels and restaurants. The
number of men employed as common
laborers was 61S, and those who Sc
cured miscellaneous positions num-
bered &c. The report shows that 600
women were placed in domestic serv-
ice and SO went to fill miscellaneous
positions. OF the total number placed
by this agency, 537 males and S31
females secured work in the city of
Butte, and 584 males and 227 females
were given work out of the city.
In mentioning various reasons why
free public employment agencies
should be established, the report VIII
say:
1T would be manifestly unjust to
say that all private employment
agencies are conducted in a dishonest
and INSCRIPTIONS manner, yet those
engaged in the business are not re-
stricted to men of high character ana
probiy. Any person able to pay the
license can engage in it. Many conf
plants are regularly made against
the manner of treatment received by
some of the applicants at the vari-
GUS employment agencies. These fur
nish sufficient ground for urging the
establishment of public offices wher-
ever possible"
A case is related of man who
was sent out to work as a dish
washer. He walked all the way
from Marysville to Helena and
turned up at the employment agency
with his original ticket indorsed,
this man cannot milk cows, by the
man to whom he had been sent. In
justice to the agent it may be said
that in this instance the greater part
of the fee was returned.
Mention is also made Of the days
when the large lumber companies let
their work by contract, and the roads
between the contractors camps and
the employment offices were crowded
with men going both ways. The
Lumbermens union, assisted by the
State Trades and Labor assembly,
did much to break up this sort of
thing.
In closing, the report will say;
If state supervision is needed
over private offices, the better plan
is for the state to assume full charge
and establish city agencies as pro-
vided for by the existing law. 1t is
practically impossible to then be I'M
just to the helpless citizens who can
i'll afford to pay the fee exacted, as
they always seek the employment
Office at time of great necessity. 1t
has passed the experimental stage.
Any citizen interested can prepare an
ordinance to be submitted to the
common council. Cities having labor
unions could secure these agencies
by concentrated action.
"The people are urged to follow
the example of Butte and establish
offices coming under the state law,
absolutely without cost to themselves
and subject to no misrepresentation
and eXtortions of private agencies"

Lincoln Ia the .aali Of Fame.

Some days ago Director Row.
land of the department of archives
and history wrote the following let
ter to Robert TODD Lincoln.
"The State of Mississippi is build.
ing beautiful new capitol, which
is nov nearing completion. One OF
its most interesting and attractive
features will be a hall of fame ded-
icated TO the great men OF our State
and country, in which their like
nesses may be placed in order that
they may serve as an inspiration IN
those who come after. We Of the
South now realize the greatness and
goodness and grandness of the char
aeter of President Abraham Lin
coin, your honored father, and
would honor his memory. Our
own Lee has been given a place in
the temple Of fame located on the
other side of Mason and Dixon's
line and his name stands with that
Of Lincoln. Your father belongs
to the worlds immortals. and moth
ing that we could do would add 10
his fame. We can, however, show
our respect and love for him. Per-
NIT me, therefore, in the name of
the State, to invite you to place a
portrait of President Lincoln in the
new capitol of Mississippi, that it
may symbolic his love for his coun-
try, his devotion to duty and his
heartfelt sympathy for the Southern
people. Your cooperation and as
sistance will be most heartily appre-
ciated."
The reply of Mr.. Lincoln came
to hand last week, as follows:
''Your letter OF October 21 was
duly received, but it has not here
tofore been practicable to comply
with your request. / have now
been able to procure what | regard
as the best large engraved portrait
of President Lincoln, and take
pleasure in sending it 10 you by ex-
press today. Thanking you for
your kind expression, l am very
truly yours,
ROBERT i. LINCOLN"
