Duncan declared that the committee had
declared in favor of the very thing
against which in the earlier portion of is
report it had protested. Delegates Reese
and Lewis of the miners, both of the
committee making the report, declared
that all laboring men asked was that
the injunction should not deprive them
of their national rights and did not pro-
test against the injunction as such. Del
egate Lewis declared: 1.-The trouble with
the laboring men is that they protest
against the law and do not explain why"
He denied emphatically that he wished
to favor government by injunction" but
thought that widespread condemnation of
the writ of injunction as such was I'M
wise. The debate closed by the com
mittee announcing that it would with
draw the Objectionable sentence from
the report. The report was then adopted.

financial storm That barometer of
business, the stock market, is on a de-

One cause of the financial trouble
that is surely coming is the high prices
of many articles. High prices reduce
consumption, and this must soon be fol-
lowed by a reduction in production. The
family with a limited income cannot

The worlds greatest purveyor of the
tools of war. he was at the same time,
by the very immensaty of his operations,
one of the greatest promoters OF peace
Friedrich Alfred Krupp succeeded his
father, the great Krupp. in the control
of the great establishment at Essen four
teen years ago. On his pay rolls there
are more than % .000 men employed in
making cannon and other munitions of
war. Thirty-four governments have
made purchases there, and more than 35,
600 guns of various sizes are frowning
on mankind as the result of his opera
tons. This grandson of Friedrich Krupp
had on the day of his death an annual
income of 20000.O00 marks, 100000
more than the German Emperor--and
there wasn't a king in all the world that
had so many people directly depending
Upon him for their livelihood.
The krupp fortunes did not come cas-
lily. For twenty years after the foundry
was started there was work enough for
only nine men, and sometimes not enough
to pay them Friedrich Krupp's father,
who was the first rtal hes6 of the gun
works, had to melt dowr the family sill
yer to pay wages. Hasiag sold his pat
ent on a new process for manufacturing
silver spoons and silver-plated spoons in
England, he devoted the money to tests
along the line of creating a Bessemer
steel of his own invention. All the world
knows that his experiments were even
tually crowned with tha most extraOrdi-
nary success, but at the start his pro-
gress was discouragingly slow. He pluck
fly weathered the hard times of the rev.
olution of 1S4S though many of his
workmen learned more and lived better
than |" All his efforts were in one di-
rection-the making of steel guns by Bes-
semer process. The day of Sedan, when
1900 Krupp guns battered down one en-
pire to create another, settled the case
once and for all time in favor of Krupp.

To Rebuild Burned ore D.

The big Wisconsin Central ore dock
which was destroyed by fire at Ashland
is to be rebuilt this winter. The FIRE
anticipated the proposed demolition of
the structure by workmen Immediately
after the close of navigation. 1t is learn
ed that comparatively little of the tim
be-, of the Old dock would have been used
in the construction of the new, so that
the company's loss is less than was at
first supposed. The use of the dock for
the remainder of the season is lost to the
company. The Wisconsin Central still
had about 10000 tons of ore to deliver
to the dock this fall, and now this will be
shipped over the Northwestern roads
