paid organizer in the field. marks the
progress which the union labor move
ment has been making in this state the
past few years. Close observers have
noted the progress and that the
labor unions are becoming stronger
every month The employment of an
organizer was by vote of the unions
themselves and the men voted to tax
themselves n certain amount to pay for
an organizer 1t thus shows the faith
of union men in their own work and
their belief that it is good thing.
Mention is Well known here.
a curious circumstance has been
called to the attention of the state
officials in the determination of the
town OF Gutenberg TO abandon its
special charter and become a town un-
der the general incorporation laws of
the state In fact this announcement
was the first any of the state officers
knew of Gutenberg being special
charter town. lit appears that the town
got a special charter from the Sixth
general assembly, in 1857 and has sur
vived under ii to this time. Now ii
is found that the special charter is not
as liberal as the charter of a town un-
der the general laws and the town is TO
be reorganized. After two unsuccess-
full efforts to get rid of the old charter
the voters decided 81 to Sc to give up
the old charter There is no record OF
the special charter at the state house.

NEW JERSEY PEAT
1t is Believed That Good Substitute

Eogs of West New York-Burns a
Ruddy Glow.

New York. Aug. 19.-Successful tests
have just been made of the turf or bog
of the New Jersey lowlands around
west New York to ascertain whether
it can be used as a substitute for fuel
in place of coal or coke for the winter
season.
Ex- Alderman O. l.. Auf Der Heide,
inspector of the sewer work in west
New York, and John Kelly. an expert
on Irish peat, dug UP great chunks OF
the turf and took samples TO a black
smith shop 1t was found to burn
readily on a forge after it had once be-
come dry. 1t turned to a ruddy glow
and seemed to hold its fire as long as
anthracite or soft coal when once kim
died.
There is almost an unlimited quantity
of the turf, or Jersey Peat as they
are beginning to style it in the Vicinity
of west New York Along the tracks of
the Hudson Heights street railroad to
the south and east for more than mile

Yer a few days ago.
Mr.. Moco;t has given orders to close
ont all his interests in the state and is
ALREADY out of the Colorado Fuel and
Iron Company and Colorado Telephone
Company He has millions tied up in
a hundred other Colorado corporations
He is responsible for almost every en-
terprise started in Denver.
Since the struggle over Colorado Fuel
and Iron stock began 4 year ago and
Mr. Wolcott withdrew from the board.
there has been some talk of break
between him and John c. Osgood. The
latter is said to have shown veXation
over Wolcott's disposition of his stock.
The secret of Wolcott's withdrawal is
the rise of Il democratic power, which
made anti-corporation laws the chief
planks in the platform. When Henry
R. Molcott was nominated for governor
on straight platform and was de-
feated he felt there was no gratitude
in the hearts of the masses. Following
this came the affront to the senator,
whose recollection was made impossi-
BILE by a democratic-p -populist combine,
which would not admit the considera-
tion of a capitalist for any office.
The Wolcotts employ in various COM
panies which they organized in Colora
do over 25.00O men and the retirement
of the brothers is regarded as death
blow to many enterprises.

Des Mones, Aug. 19.-What will
President Roosevelt have to say in
Iowa and on his western trip? This is
IA question which is agitating some OF
the politicians al this tune. 1t is in
tended and expected that his trip will
He is to speak in Des Moines and Sioux
City and aside from these places he is
to speak in the Eighth district and the
Sixth district in both of which hard
fights are promised on the congress
sional ticket. The fury in committee
affairs caused by the withdrawal from
circulation of the first edition of the
campaign books, or at least the gossip
about the alleged withdrawal, has
drawn attention to the attitude of
President Roosevelt toward national
politics and policies. 1t is alleged that
the president was offended because the
campaign book did not contain what
he regarded as full exposition of the
attitude of the administration on the
Cuban question. 1naSmuch as the book
is prepared for the use of the mem
bers OF congress in their political
campaigns of the year this is not singu-
lar, for many of the congressman Will
have to run on a platform that is not
in full accord with the sentiments of the
president. Good politicians here say
that President Roosevelt is likely to
say something decidedly interesting on
the Cuban question on his trip to Iowa.
He is not in the habit of speaking
meaningless things. He is likely to
say some things that will have more
of Il bearing on the campaign than
in the campaign book. 1t is
believed he will not keep still on the
Cuban question but will speak out
forcibly In Iowa he is sure to take
cognizance of the Iowa platform and
it is known that the platform is pretty
nearly in line with his sentiments. 1t
will be no surprise if President Roose-
Welt says something in Iowa to show
his approval of the stand taken by
Iowa republicans on the tariff and other
Another thing that is not
forgot is that Coy. Cunnins, III his
attitude toward the trusts and giant
combines. is in line with the attitude
OF President Roosevelt. 1t will be
strange if the president does not say
that will give comfort and
on this point AT any rate what the
president says in Iowa is likely to be
watched with intense interest.
