A grand benefit ball will be given by
the ladies of Cottonwood on the evening
of October 10th, 1902. The ball will be
one of the best ever given in this tewn
and those who have attended such
functions in this place know. what that
means. The proceeds derived from the
dance will go toward the purpose of
painting the public school and, in our
estimation, it is everyone's duty to help
the enterprise along as much as posi-
BILE. The ladies of the town will fur
nish the supper and the Odd Fellows
and Rebeccas have donated the use of
the organ, hall and banquet room. Ex-
cellent floor management is guaranteed
by the CHRONICLE and others and the
best.of music is assured by everyone
connected with the enterprise. We
now have y nice school but it needs
painting badly; therefore we say it is
the duty Of every man and woman in
the district 70 help decorate the build
ing so 1t will rebound TO the credit OF
| the community.
If you are not a dancer call on the
board of school trustees and donate
something to help the project along.

Unfavorably Affect State Institution
Inmates, Says DR.. WEIGH. r

In one Of two papers read yesterday be-
fore a@meeting OF superintendent Of state
institutions at the office of the board of
control, St. Paul, DR.. WEIGH Of the Fergus
Falls hospital for the insane discussed
visited and Visitors at State Institu
tions.'. He said that inmates Of Institutes
are unfavorably affected by visitors that
are simply curious. Such visits should
be prohibited:
Popular Misconceptions Concerning the
Scope and Purpose and Work Of State In
stitutions'' was the theme Of Superintehd
emit Randall of the state reformatorX. Mr.
RandalTs attitude was in agreeable con-
trast with that of the many public officers
who regard their official conduct as privi-
legged against public scrutiny. State fnsti-
tutions, said MIR. Randall, are influenced
by the popular understanding Of. them.
Such influence may easily be unfavorable
II the. institutions are misunderstood.
Hence the public cannot be kept too fully
informed as to the actual nature and
work of the institutions. The newspapers
should be encouraged to afford the public
more light than it now possesses. Clergy
men should visit not only the prisons, but
the hospitals and similar institutions. In
uuiries by wornen's clubs should be more
frequent. Thus the public. being better
informed, would be no longer swayed by
misconceptions and would believe less in
the existence Of various institutional
horrors"

DEFENDS HIS COURSE
w. A. Miller Explains Nature of
Difficulty With Bookbinders
at Washington.
He Says His Sole "0ffense'' Was
That He Wanted to Do
~: ~. Full Work.

w. A. Miller, formerly of Minneapolis,
now with the government printing and
bindery office at Washington, D.. c., re-
sents the imputataion in certain news
paper articles upon, his attitude toward
the binders union in Washington. Mr..
Miller denies having in anywise subjected
binders working under him to any indig-
nifty. He declares that he never injured
their feelings or sought to degrade their
standing. He says that the trouble was
caused by his insistence that binders
should work, or give the equivalent Of
eight hours during the day, instead of
Ave OF six hours, as agreed upon by the
Bookbinders' society. In this, he says,
he was strongly supported by the public
printer. He explains his position in detail
as follows in a letter to T h Journ ":
I'm an act Of congress, governing the
public printing and binding, there is a
clause explicitly providing that eight
hours shall constitute a days work. and
that SO cents per hour shall be paid for
suoh service. The printers and pressmen
employed in the government printing
office faithfully adhere to this law, work.
ing from whistle to whistle, a full eight
hours, without question or stipulat ton.
This may also be said of the blank book
| binders.
Years ago when few bookbinders were
employed by the government, a society
4 was formed known as the Rookbinders'
society OF washington D. G. This SOci-
ETY. promulgated a schedule of work, set
ting forth the number Of certain books
they would bind as a days work. This
agreement included the public documents,
house and senate reports, ETC., bound in
cloth or shop binding. This class of
work has grown until it has reached vast
proportions in recent years. The bind
| ers, in addition to this schedule promul-
gated by the binders society, mutually
agree on certain other work, as it.. is
taken up. AS an example, all men work
ing on the specifications Of patents, agree
to bind so many books per day without
\ consulting the foreman as to whether II
is q fair proposition or not.
Recently in taking up the binding Of
the senators, who preserve documents
which are bound in half Morocco, I OBJ.
jected to this mutual agreement of do
ing five or six hours work, and insisted
that the equivalent of fair eight hours
work be done. This work Is not covered
by this binders society schedule. In thi.
demand I am charged with insulting thu
dignity Of the binders employed upon th1.
work, Of injuring their feelings and de-
grading their standing.
"A committee was appointed to try nj
for this heinous offense. An investiga,
ton will prove these to be the absolut,
facts. In these demands upon the de-
manders employed upon this work, whicl
has been much delayed, have the heart,
approval and strenuous backing Of tn
public. printer.
~ 'In making this statement, deem
just to correct any erroneous impressions
and also in justice to the faithful EN-
ployes Of the government printing office.
