FIGHTING EMPLOYERS UNIONS.


No doctor has the desire to be
brought TO the necessity of taking his
own medicine.
The labor troubles in Chicago nave
provided case in point. The unions
are determined in their opposition 10
the associations of employers. Soma
of these unions have gone on record,
and others will likely do so as the oc-
cason is presented, against treating
with employers except as individuals.
The freight handlers have declared
thru their president. that If their de-
mands are denied they will refuse 10
treat with the association of general
managers, and will fight each roa"
separately. The hotel and restaurant
employees have taken like stand. IheS
have decided that they will ignore the
association of employers and that the
employers who refuse to sign indlvloua'
agreements shall be made to suffer.
Many employers have insisted upon
their right to deal with the Individual
emrioye, but to concede that rlgh.

the union.
The individual employer has 1ounc
himself unable to secure what he con-
siders a fair bargain. in dealing with
the union, and particularly so since the
unions combine to fight each other
battles.
In this situation the movement to-
ward associations of employers mas

of the unions. -,

MEMORY ssADFREAK FILED BY JOHNSON
sargen Mastin Knows He Has q
Family, but Cant Re
member Where.
He Lies at the City Hospital
Weeping as He Tries
to Recall.

Somewhere in the world Sargen
Mastin knows he has a wife and six
small children waiting for him to
come home.
He knows they are in need. proba-
bly, hungry and cold. entirely depend
ent on him for their meager support.
Yet, when he tries In agony to re-.
member where they are, his treacher-
Gus memory refuses to work, his shat
tered nerves give way, and he bursts
into tears, pleading with the city hos.
pital attendants to take him to his
family.
Mastin, who is a carpenter, was In
jured few days ago while working
at the Saratoga restaurant and was
taken to the hospital with a severely
injured back. When he regained con-.
sciousness his mind seemed clear but
the past was almost a complete blank.
Only the one thought, that Of his fam
lily, ever comes to his mind.
He knows that before his injury
they were entirely dependent on his
support, and that he came to Mime
apolis in order to make more money
and give them a better home, but In
what city or town his home and fam
est recollection. The doctors at the
hospital and members of the police
force, who have taken great interest
In his case, have made every effort
to aid him in clearing his mind of
the shadow, as he calls it, but thus
far they have not succeeded. His con-
dition is still critical, and the physi
clans fear that unless his family is
found he may grow worse.
Every possible means has been used
by the police department to find out
where the man lives. but all have
failed. No inquiries have come in ask
ing about such a person, and they fear
that Mastin came a long distance to
look for work. AS he is unable to
assist In any way, the police are COM
PEELED to wait until his family inquiries
for him.

t'Altho,. of course, we hope to win,

tain Ed Rogers of thevarstty team at
the big mass meeting which was held
at the university this morning. ALI of
the other speakers were very decided
In. their predictions of a Minnesota
victory, President Northrop being
among the most enthusiastic.
The meeting, which was a send-of
for the football team, which leaves
for Madison tonight, was very largely
attended and enthusiasm ran high.
Rev. Charles Gordon (Ralph Con-
nor) the author, who is now In the
city, was the principal speaker, and
altho very unfamiliar with football
mass meetings, he made a "hit" with
the crowd.
DR.. Williams was next introduced
by President Northrop in a humorous
speech. DR.. Williams referred to
President Northrop's trip to Ann Ar
Dor two weeks ago when he witnessed
the Michigan-Wisconsin football
game, returning with much valuable
information relative to the Wisconsin
team. He also spoke Of the great as
sistance which the rooters were to the
team when on the gridiron. He urged
all those whoscouId not go to Madison
to go to the international auditorium
to get the reports Of the game, 'be-
cause" he said, If the team knows
that you are with them and are stay
ing with them to the finish, never
mind whether you are on the field
or not, they are going to play harder
and are going to put up a winning
fight against Wisconsin"
Captain Rogers was embarrassed
at being called upon to speak, but he
made good and received an ova-
ton. After expressing his doubts at
the outcome Of the game he said that
he could safely promise that the
team would do its best.
President Northrop closed with a

progress Of the game at his house, 80

Partial Report on His Examination
Of State Auditor and Treas
urer's Books.
He Recommends a New System Of
Double Checking to Be
Adopted Dec. /.

Public Examiner Johnson has sub
mftted partial report on his exam,
ination of the offices of the state aud
ltor and treasurer.
The house committee on public
accounts and expenditures, after a
short investigation, last winter, rec
commended in Its report of April 16
that several matters in connection
with those Offices be referred to the
public examiner for further inquiry,
Since then the work has been carried
on by John Barry, an expert ac-.
examiner. His work Is not finished,
but the report made concerns two
items in the committees report.
Exhibit / of the report showed the
Discrepancy between the auditors and
treasurer's books in the balances of
the appropriation ledger accounts.
Exhibit # showed the outstanding
auditors books, which did not agree
with the balance found by the ex-
pert accountant
The legislative committee recon-
mended that the adjustment Of these
accounts and the differences therein
be referred to the public examiners S
department" In his report on file,
the public examiner states that the
state treasurer and the auditor have
been working on theh matter. Mr..
Bloch was the first treasurer to keep
ledger appropriation accountsf1 and
they have by considerable work ef-
fected practical reconciliation Of
the book differences.
However( it is felt that perma-
nent system of checking is necessary
to prevent further tangles and dis
creepancies. Mr.. Johnson has worked
one out, and submits it, asking that
1t be put into effect Dec. 1.
The treasurer is now complying
with the claw, which requires daily
statement from him to the auditor,
showing all receipts and disburse-
ments for the day, with duplicate re-
ceipts and the state warrants on
which payments were made, also a
statement of the amounts drawn from
each fund, and the balances remain
ing. Public Examiner Johnson's plan
is that the auditor shall make q SIM
liar daily statement to the treasurer,
with the public examiner. These
statements are to be kept in such
shape that they can be filed as per-
manent records Of each office. This
will furnish a self corrective system
for the present and all succeeding ad-
ministrations, to keep the accounts
corresponding.
State Auditor Iverson and, State
Treasurer Block have received copies
of the report, and blanks proposed by
theh public examiner. They have
ton and recognize the need of a
closer check between the two offices.
1t is likely that they will follow the
plans submitted by the public exam
iner, but they have not given it a
thoro examination as yet. rs
