BEDE AND The NORWEGIANS,

The Nordvesterns Misunderstanding, a
Swedish paper of this city, has a Pc
culiar way of supporting the Republic
can ticket. In spite of insults it ad-
vises the Scandinavian voters to stand
by the ticket. Last week it printed the
following editorial.
Adam Bede is said to have stated
many years ago that the Republican
party took up Knute Nelson as it's can,
dldate because he was a Norwegian and
not an American, but in reality it mat
ters very little and is no reason why
the Norwegians should deprive Adam
of their vote and support. The state of
Minnesota has hardly had better gov
ernor than Knute Nelson, but it is in
disputable that he would not have re-
ceived the nomination had it not been
for his nationality. That is no dis
grace, especially for the people of Min
nesota, since they have so thoroughly
learned his worth, that they have Civ
en- him two terms in the United States
senate.
The Swedes, who are in the major
ity in this large district, although
overlooked by the Republicans, will in
spite of that vote for Bede for congress,
and the Norwegians could not do any,
thing but stand by the Republican par
ty who in this and other counties have
treated them very generously

The young wife yearns to make i1er

In many cases the expense and the

TRADES ASSEMBLY
and THE WOOD QUESTION

Some Of the people who have at
tempted to tinge with charity the pro-
position Of the City Council to get out
wood for the people, and sell it to them
at cost, have advocated that the Trades
and Labor Assembly should take the
matter up. They say that as labor
brought on'-the strike, and as labor
will suffer the most this winter on ac-
count of theI' high price of coal, it
would be good grace on the part of the
Trades Assembly to help to relieve the
situation.
To this argument we'll known labor
official gave vent to his feelings. He
said that while labor did bring on the
strike it was capital who prolonged
it. The coal barons through their ar
bitrary action, their denial Of the right
of labor to organize, and their claim
of divine rights of property are pri-
marily responsible for the long strug-
gle.
While the Trades Assembly would no
doubt be pleased to join with others
in the community for the purpose of
relieving the situation it believes that
it should be the duty of the munich
pality to take the matter up.

Dor Has Same Right as Capital Praises
President Mitchell and Declares That a
New Era Is About to Dawn-Stands Pat
on State Legislation.

P. F.. bowling, a Republican candi-
date for the legislature in the Forty
ninth district in response to an in.
quiry as to his attitude on matters of
legislation pertaining to the working
men says: primarily that l believe
in the formation Of labor organizations,
for the reason that they have the same
right to combine for personal interests
that capital has to create combinations
and organization for personal aggran-
dizement. That labor being the weak
err creation should and of right ought to
have the public sympathy, capital al
ways being strong enough to maintain
it's oposition. Both elements of course,
recognizing the fact that their inter-
ests are common, and the greater de-
gree of cooperation should be encour-
aged both from the press,~the platform
and in matters Of legislation. The alb
sence of great strikes in the state of
Minnesota for the past few years will
make it reasonably easy in matters Of
legislation that may come before the
legislature of 1903 in all matters be-
tween capital and labor.

servant, never let her put on the cloth
alone. 1t is an easy matter to help her
perform this task, and a cloth always
looks better when four hands instead Of
two lay it. All the napkins should match
the cloth, and of these two or three

AS centrepiece small fernery will
be inexpensive, and adds greatly to the
attractiveness of table. Do not select
too high dish or too high plant.
If you possess an old bit Of silver or
plate in a bowl shape, have tin fitted
to it and fill it with hardy ferns. Again,
a blue and white Japanese bowl is most
effective.
Too much care cannot be bestowed
upon the setting of table. Each article
should be laid on it with absolute pre-
cison. Nothing is worse than a knife
at the wrong angle.
Bread and butter plates should
b. placed at the left side. Forks
should be placed at the left and
knlfes at the right. Glasses,
both for wine and water, should
be placed at the right. Napkins
can be folded in various ways or left
in the original folds in which they have
been ironed, and they can be placed
either directly in the centre of the plate
space or at the right hand. If candles
are to be used, place the candlesticks
at the four corners of the table, midway
between the centre and the edge. Small
dishes containing olives, pickles or bon
bons may be placed on the table, but
all other dishes save the plate holding
the roast. the salad bowl or dessert,
should be placed on the side table.

VIM. BROWN. FOR
REPRESENTATIVE.

William Brown the railroad organi-
cations candidate for the legislature in
the 18th district is making campaign
that is emitting him to a majority Of
the votes cast on election day in his
district. The union railroad men are
giving him loyal support, and they are
asking the union men in other fields of
labor to reciprocate. 1t is well known
by labor men that the place to do good
in politics for labor is in the state leg
islature.
If this be true, every union man in
the 49th district should rally to Mr.
Browns support. After the election is
over, and when the legislature is in ses-
sion the working people will wish that
they had several good men in the leg
islature who are really close to them.
The fact that one sympathizes with
labor is not sufficient. The best man
is the one who comes direct from the
environments Of labor, and knows their
real wants.
The duty of all workingmen is to
support Mr.. Brown, first last and all
the time.

FAY A
SURE WINNER,

Captain Fay's trip through the dis
trict has been an ovation from the be-
ginning. Last week we referred to his
meetings at Grand Rapids, Cloquet and
Pine City. The meetings at other
places since then have been largely at
tended, accompanied with unprecedent-
ed enthusiasm.
Last Thursday at Moro the meeting
was marked contrast to the one held
by the republicans the evening before.
At Captain Fay's meeting the hall was
crowded to its fullest capacity, while
the republican meeting adjourned for
want of an audience.
On Friday evening at Princeton there
was an unusually large crowd, and
Captain Fay was given a royal re-
ceDtion.
On Saturday evening at Anoka, ne
was greeted by another large crowd,
and many republicans attended who
assured the captain that they were with
him to the end.
On Monday evening, at Cambridge,
an enthusiastic and large audience
gave the Captain earnest attention.
He was assisted at this meeting by
Judge Corrigan Of St. Paul.
Fully two hundred people were turn
ed away from the Aitken meeting on
Tuesday evening. A brass band met
the Captain at the train and while he
was in the city he was given an enthu-
siastic reception.
Two Harbors was never better Or
ganized than it is today. On Wednes-
day evening Mr.. Rosing and Mr.. Fay
were greeted with the largest audiences

From Lippincott's:
An author-for obvious reasons he
would not care to have his name used
recently had call from a friend who
was about to start on journey.
Il wish had something good to read
on the train," remarked the friend.
Have you read my last book?" asked
the author.

it-romance or humor?''
IT'S supposed to be humor." laughed
the author, land I don't mind giving
you copy on an advertising basis"
whats that?" asked the friend.
why, all you've got to do is to laugh
and chuckle while you're reading it, and
hold it so that the other people on the
car can see what the book is that you
find so diverting. That's the best kind
of advertising a book can have"
"I'll try it," said the friend, and he
took the book.
OF course, this was all said in fun,
and it was so understood, but, as the
friend rolled along. in the parlor car it
occurred to him thatsthe humorous pos
sibilities of the situation were not en-
tirely exhausted. So it happened that

SOME PAST
LABOR GOSSIP.
RAILROAD MAN TAKES EXCEPTION
TO BEDE'S RECORD.
Action of liede's Deputies During
the A. II. L. Strike-Strike Was
Lost Through Intimidation Of the
Courts and United States Mar
shals-Object to Bede Frying Open
Old Sores.

Editor Of Labor World:
j. Adam Bede has on the streets and
Oh nearly every platform upon which
he has spoken during the Primary CAM
paign and the present Congressional
campaign made in substance the fol-
lowing statement:
They say l have no stability.
point you to the manner in which l
handled and put down the great rail-
road strike while I was United States
Marshal for Minnesota"
There were in Minnesota, over ten
thousand railroad men interested and
engaged in that great strike of 1894.
That strike, so far as Minnesota was
concerned, was the most orderly and
intelligently conducted strike that ever
existed and the ten thousand men en-
gagged in it was battling and each one
was making a personal sacrifice 10
help uphold the great human princi
Piles, that the weak must be protected
against the strong Every man in
that strike made a great personal sac
rifice in order to compel the Pullman
company to pay living wages to it's
employees.
Through the use of injunctiOns,
United States troops and United States
marshals and deputies the strikers
lost. The men gracefully submitted to
the inevitable. That strike was lost
but not so with the principle involved.
Those principles will live as long as
humanity lives.
Mr.. Bede is entitled to credit for per-
forming every duty which he was called
upon to perform and he is entitled to
the same commentator therefor as
any other man.
But what right has Mr.. Bede, eight
years after, to over and over again
publicly boast Of how he subdued these
ten thousand men and thus recall TO
suffered by them in that strike and the
bitterness of the defeat?
If Mr.. Bede can point to no other
time or event in his life to prove what
he terms "stahility' in his make up
than the handling of the strike in 1894
his stock of stability will not last
long.
An old sore is a dangerous thing
to prod. 1t is likely to become infect
uous.
The railroad men who were in that
strike or sympathized with it have had
the grace to try to forgive and to for
get the past and give Mr.. Bede credit
for performing his duties as he saw
them and overlook things that were
done that may have been avoided by
him and his deputies. Not so With
Mr.. Bede. I say let him take the en-
sequences.

ficulties yet the action of President
Mitchell and the United Mine Workers
of Pennsylvania has. commanded my
admiration, and believe that where
such degree of wisdom has been ex-
hibited as that shown by Mr.. Mitchell
in his efforts on behalf Of labor, that
in the future union labor will COM
mand the sympathies and attention Of
the thinking public.
A new precedent has been established
by President Roosevelt in the settle
ment of industrial disputes of ma
tional character, which is but the be-
ginning of the end Of prolonged strikes.
If congress will but do its duty, and
pass laws in behalf Of labor, and pro-
vide for a manner of arbitration for the
future, where labor can fairly and
justly sumbit it's grievances, and be
sure Of an amicable adjustment, much
of the trouble for labor will be avoided.
In matters of state legislation I
stand for the enactment of laws that
will accord labor the fullest protection
in it's various spheres of operations. I
am opposed to child labor; in favor of
compulsory educations, and favor the
fullest protection to the girls who la
Dor in shops and factories.

the union, and the tie-up that would
have resulted in the face of the pres
ent rush of railway traffic, would have
been large.
The men asked for an advance of 5
cents an hour beyond the present scale
of rs, ~ and 20 cents per hour At
first the companies offered an advance
of IL cents an hour, but later they
agreed to give 21z cents advance, and
that settled the strike. The advance
applies on the entire Great Northern
and Northern Pacific systems.
