Places Is Not Yet
Announced.

Every teacher: in the Minneapolis pub

be; married, and others will accept posi-
lions in other cities. There is but one
principal in the list, Mrs. j. c. Hoblett
of the Grant school, who will move to
California. -. r.. ..--.- +
The board of education, in accordance
with the plan decided upon two years ago,
will select a male principal to succeed

that in the belief of its members the Min
| neapolis school system could be strength
ened by the employment of male princi-
pals for the larger grade schools. There
was then but single male principal out
side of the high schools, Mr.. Painter OF
the Adams school. Two more have been
added since, Mr.. Jorgens Of the Jackson
school and Mr.. Farmer of the Seward

favor of men, but as fast as the present
| women principals drop out they will be
replaced in the larger schools by men

Lnew principal has not yet been selected
There are seven candidates for the place
The new list of teachers, in conformity
with the rule of former years, will not be
announced until the close of the schoo

signed five or six are teachers in the high

Truck Drivers Position Endorsed by

Truck Drivers Position Endorsed by
the Central Body. ~
Representatives of the Trades and La
Dor Council say that organization Is
standing back of the truck drivers in their
strike and take issue with labor man
quoted in yesterdays Journal. This man,
who is prominent in labor circles, was
quoted as saying that both the truck
drivers and bakers strikes might have
been avoided had there been some con-
trolling power over them, such as the
Building Trades Council eXerted over it's
affiliated trades. The interview also took
the ground that it was unwise to allow
a new union to strike and that in case of
grievance the matter should be handled
by some one outside the union directly
implicated.
Trades and Labor Council grievance COM
mittee makes an answer indicating that
the exact suggestions made in, the inter-
view have already been followed. In
the first place, he says, the truck drivers
is not a new union. The drivers were
organized nearly two years ago and the
union, finally became 50 large that it was
divided into several bodies along special
| lines, of which the truck drivers consti
tuted one. AS to conservative action,
Mr.. Mcdowell says the truck drivers re-
ported their grievance to the council on
May Z. After thorough Investigation of
the position of the union the unions de-
mands were unanimously Endorsed.
Though not truck driver, Mr.. Mcdowell,
as chairman of the grievance committee,
personally visited twelve out Of sixteen
of the 'draymen's association, but found
| that there was no disposition to sign the
schedule nor arbitrate. A week later the
drivers voted to strike and this action
has since been Endorsed by. the Trades
and Labor Council, which has given both
| moral and financial support to the men. :;

THE MAYOR PROCLAIMS
Calls Upon Business Firms to Decor

Mayor Ames has issued a proclamation
calling the attention of the people to the
preparations that are being made by the
Elks for their carnival and street fair to
be held in June and points out the benefit
the event will be to the city. After dwell
ing upon the Importance of the carnival,
he says:
Il deem it no more than right that all
business houses and firms decora te their
stores and buildings with the colors, pur-
pie and white, of the order, and that the
we'll known emblems of the Elks be placed
in conspicuous places wherever practical
BILE. There is no reason why this event
should not be made memorable by thor
ough cooperation between the order and
the business community and every effort
be put forth for the success of the project.
The fair will bring thousands to the city
who will be heavy patrons of the business
houses, consequently I call upon all in
the business section of the city, for all
will be benefited, to show their appreci-
alton by appropriate and as extensive
decorations as possible.

listen when the venerable head of the
church touched on the question of Luth-
eran unity as suggest ed by the United
church He approved the plan, but re-
marked significantly that the chief him
drance to it's contamination was Profess
sor F. A. Schmidt, teacher In the United
Church seminary at St. Anthony Park.
The following committee was appointed
to confer with the United church regard
ing this important subject: Rev. A. K.
Sagen. La Crosse, Wis: Rev. S. S. Reque,
Spring Grove, Mimi, and ]. B. Thomp-
son, Northwood, Iowa.
An interesting communication was read
from Rev. Jacob Aall sOttesen, one Of the
founders of the church, who regretted
THAT he was proven ted from attending the
synod for the first time since its organt-
zatfon.

A POLITICAL ECHO
Heard in the Meeting Of Baptist
Home Missionary Society.
THE POWER OF THE ARCHBISHOP
1t Is Dwelt Upon by General Morgan
of New York, the Society's
Secretary.
"Archbishon Ireland has acquire

Archbishop Ireland has acquired q
tremendous power lin politics that he Is
using for the benefit of the Roman
church." This statement was made at
this mornings session of the American
Baptist Home Missionary society in st:
Paul by General T. j. Morgan, OF New
York, the society's secretary. He de-
clared there had been an agreement made
by Marcus Hanna for the republican
party to which General Morgan belongs
that If the archbishop would throw the
vote of the church to the republican party
the Roman Catholics would receive con-
cessions in the Indian service. General
Morgan's address was perhaps the most
sensational of those delivered at the anni-
versaries. He referred also to the insid-
ious effect of Minister WIS ru5lic com
parsons Of Confucianisn with the teach
ings Of Christ, such as made by him In
the pulpit of the Central Baptist church
Of New York. This explained the speak
er's reference to Entertainments Of or
ganized heathenism in North America
against the Protestant church.
The meeting began with President e. M.
Thresher in the chair. The gavel Presi-
dent Thresher used was made of walnut
and hickory by Choctaw Indian and was
the Indians first work with tools.
The keynote of the presidents address
was loyalty, No matter what the diff
ference of opinion a S to methods of work
he believed the great thing was loyalty.
There is but one voice, The said, that OF
loyalty to work, loyalty to the word, 10y
