e. r. COBB ELECTED
. TO sEcRETARYsHIP.
Succeeds Secretary w. w. BIackshaw,
in the Builders Exchange. -.

E. r. Cobb, for many years a prorni-
nent member of organized labor. was
'on Wednesday elected secretary of the
Builders Exchange. He succeeds w.
w. Blackshaw, who resigned to accept
a better position elsewhere. Mr.. Cobb
assumed the duties of his new position
Thursday morning. The Builders tx
change is indeed fortunate in securing
the services Of such a man as Mr.,
Cobb. We have known him for manv
years, and have no hesitancy in recon-
mend1ng him for honesty and ability.
Mr.. Cobb served as organized labor's
representative on the school board for
several years, and afterwards acted as
superintendent of construction for the
board. The bitterness of one member
of the present board against organized
labor was the cause of Mr.. Cobb's dis
m1ssal. This member said that he had
nothing against Mr.. Cobb; that he al
ways found him to be honest and at
tentive to his duties, but; and there
he stopped.
While Mr. Cobb has not been con-
nected with union labor for four wears
we feel that his heart is still right and
that his presence in the Builders Elk
change will have a quieting effect in
the building industry so far as the
interests of the contractors and the
building trades workmen are con-
cerned j.:

men OF COURAGE:
IN THE MOVEMENT
DULUTH HAS SOME BRAVE AND
NDEFATIGABLE WORKERS.
Some Men Who Give Every Spare
Hours to Organized Labor. Ad- y
vice to Men Who Can't
Help Knocking.

Too often the leading officer Of a
Trades assembly or local union is re-
Egarded with suspicion when working
andefat1gably for the organization he
represents. Labor organizations have
'been fooled so. often that it takes con-
siderable time to work ones way into
fhe confidence Of the members. Some
Nnen can never think kindly of others,
$50 many hard workers are obliged to
tgo about their work in the movement
Gn an air of suspicion.
This is why there is so much discour-
Agement for the thin skinned ones In
$the labor movement The man who
splows along in the even tenor of his
way, so long as he is honest, and is
courageous enough to stand the knocks
tof the nistrustful will come out all
right
There is a great and growing field in
The labor movement for honest, fair,
conscientous and courageous men. The
sdabor question is the coming issue.
The man who enters the movement un-
sselhshly will surely find much honor
t4here.
There is Henry Pereault, the presid-
;ent of the Federated Trade and Labor
,Assembly, who is the most tireless
'worker we ever knew in the labor
movement. After his daily toll at his
trade is over, he belongs to union Ia
bor He is at it every night in the
week. His confidence in union labor
never falters, and while he may re-
Deive an occasional rebuke it never
Adiscourages him in his life work. We
fear that there are too many who do
not appreciate his valuable work for
organized labor.
Then there is j. A. Barron, the Sc
cretary Of the Trades Assembly, who
never shirks a duty. Like President
"Pereault, he never becomes tired Of
,the work While his duties are large
ly clerical, yet he serves on many COM
mittees, and when he is appointed the
members can rest assured that 'sorne-
thing will be DONE"
Another whose work We admire is
Fred McKelvey of the Cooks and Wait
ers union. He is one who can always
be depended upon. Appoint him to do
ANY kind of work, and depend upon it,
it will be done or there will be some
good reason for it. AS soon as Fred
takes his apron off in the kitchen OF
Haley's restaurant, it is ten to one that
there is a duty to perform for organiz-
ed labor somewhere, and he loses nc
time in doing it.
We could mention a goodly number
just like the above three, but space will
not permit in this column. It is these
kind of men who make organizations
of labor successful. They are the men
of today; men Of action, who find more
pleasure in working than standing
around a bar knocking this and that
fellow who is endeavoring to do some
little good for the movement. Give III
more of such men. A time like this de-
mands them.
To the knocker, let us say: Stop it

That the same evening, but a little
later, the Bishop was conversing with
King Edward and he ventured to ex-
press regret that Lord Salisbury was
apparently unable to recognize his
friends, and told his Majesty what had
happened. The king laughed heartily
and said: He has threatened me
worse than that. Not long ago, while
having an audience with me, he. gave
beautiful example of thinking aloud.
On a table close to his lordship stood
photograph of myself, Lord Sails
bury, taking it UP, gazed at it. for a
few moments, and then remarked:
Poor old >dufrer;' wonder if he is as
stupid as he looks?'"

Grand total saved in en-
tire state by reduction

This list SHOWS actual savings this
year by the Republican legislation en-
acted despite solid Democratic opposi-
tion led by Johnson himself. 1t is a
gain for each county, not for this year
alone, but for year after year per-
petually, unless upset by Democratic
experiments. While Mr.. Johnson and
his immediate lieutenants, Salen and
Clarke, Bemis and Witt, and all his
other tax experts, are showing their
list of guesses of what each county
might be losing by reason of fictitious
figures which they assume to make
upon a basis that is not only false and
unlawful, but upon a socialistic
scheme that would take away ulti-
mately from the people their farms
and homes; instead of these glittering
and deceptive promises, THE REPUB-

British consols, the government
bonds, are at the lowest price since
1866. "The chief reason for this seri-
Gus shrinkage is the excess OF bor-

A MONKEYS PETS.

Hack Inspector Sam Macy, who has
been known for years as a fancer and
owner of fine animals, tells the follow
ing story of a pet monkey which he
owned several years ago and whose
loss was almost as greatly felt as If
it had been one Of the members Of the
inspectors family. The monkey was
brought to this country when very
young and bought by Sam, who started
to educate the beast Immediately. 1t
was a very willing and intelligent
