JUDGE McGINDLEY WRITES IN
FAVOR OF HILL MERGER,
Contends That If the Union Pacific
Controlled the Northern Pacific
That Duluth Would Lose Her
Share of Oriental Trade-Merger
md the Northwest.
Editor of Labor World:

Editor of Labor World:
The action that is now being taken
by Governor Van SAINT for the purpose
of preventing a partial merger of the
Northern Pacific and the Great Nor
thern Railroads is clearly susceptible
of different. views as to it's general
effect and especially as to its tendency
to advance or retard the interests of
Duluth and northern Minnesota.
Mr.. Hill has detailed, doubtless truth
fully, the history Of the recent great
contest for the control of the Northern
Pacific. 1t is too plain for controversy
that should the Northern Pacific pass
into the general control of the Union
Pacific, and especially in view of the
fact that the Union Pacific controls the
line of railroad that runs from Port
land, Oregon, to San Francisco, that
the accomplishment of such result
would make San Francisco the great
distributing point for the Oriental
trade, and thereby divert trade and
travel from the Orient directly to Chi
cago, which would materially injure
the future Of Duluth. This is not the
only consideration, however, as far as
Duluth is concerned.
Should the Northern Pacific be thus
transferred to the Union Pacific, very
severe and injurious competition would
result between the Northern Pacific
and the Great Northern, by and
through which the Great Northern
would ultimately become insolvent and
unable to meet it's interest charges and
be forced into the hands Of receiver
That result attained, all improvements
touching the building Of branches as
feeders to the Great Northern would
cease, resulting as it would to direct
material injury to the jobbing interests
and future manufacturing interests OF
this city.
Persons who are familiar with the
conditions between Duluth and the
coast, the very sparse settlements and
the very small amount Of local freight
and traffic along the railroad lines, will
very readily conclude that neither the
Northern Pacific nor the Great North
ern-and especially the Great Northern
that Is practically without subsidy
can stand the strain of, ruinous compe-
tition. In other words, that these
respective companies are compelled to
make certain charges for freight and
passengers and that the lowering OF

The days for good times in trade
unions have commenced. Beginning
next Monday with the Building Trades
council there will be several social ses-
sions of various trade unions. A union
meeting is usually rather dry and de-
void Of pleasure. From the opening un-
til the close it is strictly business. Fre-
quently some witty member causes a
little laughter, sometimes a joke is
passed about, but as general rule
it is earnest and sincere business from
beginning to end.
Next Monday evening the Building
Trades council will elect officers for
the ensuing six months. After the in
stallation a social session will be held.
There will be music, speeches, recita-
tions and refreshments. A special
notice has been Sent to every delegate
to be present.
Following the Trades council will
come the Butchers second social ses-
sion of the season. If you never en-
joyed a pleasant evening at union
party you should be sure to go to a
social session of a butchers union. If
you want to spend an evening in mirth
and merriment get some butcher friend
to invite you. They have cards, read
ings, German songs and dialect speech
es, and best of all, a glorious German
repast that will charm the appetite Of
any dyspeptic.
When the plasterers install their
officers on the fourth Monday of this
month, they and their ladies win enter
tain the West Superior union which
will visit the Duluth organization in a
body. After an informal entertain
| ment there will be a social hop and
refreshments.
For a real good time the plumbers
take the cake. Away back in the early
days, after the election of officers a
social session was always held. This
has been the habit ever since. On the
| second Thursday Of this month will
occur another election, also another
social session followed by six months

DANGER OF BOILERS
EXPLOSION AT SACRED HEART IN
STITUTE CAUSES DISCUSSION.
Steamfitterp Say That There Ts No
Necessisty of Explosions IL the
Boilers Were Cared for by Com
petent Men-State Law Does Not
Cover the Smaller BOilers-Instan-
ces of Some Accidents.

The explosion Of the boiler on New
Years eve at the Sacred Heart In
stitute was the topic Of discussion
among several steam filters yesterday.
While they knew nothing whatever OF
the circumstances connected with THIS
case, yet it gave rise to a discussion OF
the number Of boilers in the city, in the
terraces, In buildings consisting OF flats
and in private dwellings that are cared
for by incompetent men. The state
license law does not cover some OF
these, and yet there is almost as much
danger from explosion in these as in
the larger boilers. One of the filters
referred to an instance in a private
dwelling where the steam boiler is
cared for by milk man.
The steam gauge was plugged up.
The milk man thought little Of it, and
stairs. One day steam filter was
called to the house. and while there he
repaired the gauge. That evening the
milkman discovered that the gauge
registered eight pounds, and without
any investigation he ran wildly through
the house advising the people to vacate
as the boiler was liable to explode at
any minute. Another referred to an
instance in FLAT" building where sew
eral hot water boilers were connected
on the top by a header, each boiler
having valve between the top and
the header connection so that it could
be shut off in mild weather when it is
necessary to use fewer boilers In this
instance there were but two boilers in
use. and the weather became suddenly
cold. The use of the other boilers was
demanded and fires were built. The at
tendant knew so little about managing
them that in building the fires he did
not open the valve into the header. The
result was the water became so hot
that the expansion which caused an
enormots pressure broke the casting.
The explosion from this was fearful
and while no lives were lost there was
great danger. This, says the steam
filters shows that it is safe to have
experienced men in charge Of boilers.

On the most important question
which came before the recent conven-
ton of the American Federation Of
Labor for settlement, namely. the
adoption or rejection of socialism, that
body took the following stand:
1.-THE aims and desires and aspira-
tions of trade unionists comprise all
that is necessary or possible to the
well being of the human family, and
in pursuit of accomplishment Of which
we cheerfully accept and in fact desire
all assistance which can be given our
movement by those reform forces which
stand for the betterment of mankind.
In this position we are in close rela-
tionship to the greater body of social
lists and with them agree that not only
should the burdens of toll be made
lighter but that each worker has an
undeniable right to enjoy the full bene-
fit Of that which he or she produces.
We. like them, stand for greater liberty
and are determined so to act that the
future shall be more congenial to the
whole human family. and especially
more bright and enjoyable to men and
women bread earners of North America
sent It is true, nevertheless, that in
furtherance of our claim, namely, that
our principles comprise the fullest and
highest scope of human activity and
from time to time will be enhanced and
advanced in accordance with the de-
mands to satisfy needs and desires, the
people we represent, the working class,
hold different views on the best method
of furthering the desired end, even
though there is little difference among
them as to the desirability Of the posi-
tion we hope to attain.
I'VE unhesitatingly announce that
the trade union movement theory rep
resented is the most practicable, safe
and legitimate channel through which
the working men and women of North
America should not only continue to
seek redress for their wrongs, but by
which they can strengthen their eco
nomic position until it will control the
political field and thereby place labor
in full possession of it's inherent rights.
I'm conclusion we assert that it is
the duty of all trade unions to publish
in their official journals, to discuss in
their meetings andasthaSa negsb bersss s.ss to

The expense OF state government

istration is more than double the ex-
pense of state government during the
first two years of Gov. Peck's Demo
cratic ADMINISTRATION. Peck spent, from

Toilette, during eighteen months of
administration, has spent from the
same fund S., 2lI ,48927. With the ex-
penses of the six months to complete
his term, added to the amount expended
up to June 30, the La Toilette admins
tration will have cost the taxpayers
more than the cost to them of the en-
tire four years of Gov. Peck's admins
tration. Do the voters see the point?
