More Ft. Scott Gall.

Nervier things may have been done
than this, but the REGISTER doubts it..
lola and Ft. Scott are rivals for the
honor of entertaining Union men on
Labor Day. Now Ft. Scott claims
that the lola Unions are going to
come there. The Tribune OF Friday
said:
"The labor day committees which
are now working up the celebration
for Fort Scott on August lst, have
been assured by the smelter mems s
union of the Allen county district that
600 of them will be over here to cele-
brate labor day. The smelter men
have had little fuss with the central
body of organized labor at lola. The
central body, it is said for social rea'
sons, refused to take the smelter men
in. Two weeks later they reconsid'
cred, but the smelter men were piqued
and refused to go in. Now they have
determined to come here to celebrate
"The committees in charge OF oul
celebration say there will be 1896
people here on labor day, and tha
this is no "log-rollin' talk" Spring

Prisoners Shall Crush Rock

Itreally beRine to look as if theday
had passed when the city will lodge
and feed lazy prisoners until it
wearies and then turn them loose
without further punishment. This is
what the prisoners wait for. 1t is no
punishment to most of them to lie
about two weeks. get their meals reg
ularly and chen get free. But work!
The very thought of having to work
will cause great reforms.
The street commissioner has fixed
up a pen in the rear of the city
hall where city prisoners may sit in
in the shade, accompanied by ball
and chain, and crack rock and jokes.
thus making some small return for
the nonpayments of fines assessed,
Several have already worked on the
streets, and hereafter all should be
compelled to do so. Besides we need

MODERN WOODMEN 70 BUILD
Will Erect Half With 800 Seating
Capacity on Butler Building on
West Street

Another lola lodge Is to have fine
home of Its own just as soon as work
men can finish the structure. This
order is lola lodge No. 961 Modern
Woomen of America and their hall
will be on the third floor of the new

Mr.. Butler has been planning for
some time to build but he rather in
clined to an opera house idea. This
having been dropped he warmed up to
the Woodmen and allis now arranged
for a big three-story building. Mr..
Butler will erect the first two floors
and the Woodmen will erect the third
floor. The building will be 4S by 100
feet and the first floor will be divided
into store rooms. The second floor
will be arranged for offices and living
rooms. 1t is planned to have fine
restaurant put in one of the ground
floor rooms and thus roomers can
board in the same building.

an assembly room where all the mem.
bers can meet at one time. 1t is plan.
ned to build large room with a seat
ing capacity of 800, with smaller
rooms for keeping the lodge para
phernalia. The entire building from

very best material. 1t will face north
on West street, with an outside stair
way on Walnut. 1t is expected soon
to put in an elevator.
With this handsome structure on
the corner, opposite the Tremon,

story building planned and already
begun just east of it West street will

Pratt Williamson returned home
Friday afternoon from Kansas City
where he has been for several days
visiting the labor organizations OF

tage of trip to lola on Labor Day.
He found a strong sentiment in the
Missouri town for celebrating at home
and his advertising bills were torn
down as fast as he put them up. He
stayed with them, however, and aided
by four former lola carpenters now
working there aroused considerable
interest which the old lola boys de-
clare they will keep alive. In Kansas
City, Kansas, the task was lighter
and Mr.. Williamson returned home,
confident that from the two towns no
fewer than two hundred and fly car
penters will come to lola. With these
