DAVID AND BATHSHUA .(BATHSHEBA). A
Drama in Five Acts. By Charles w. Wynne
New York: The Knickerbocker Press, Nos. q
and 20 w Twenty street.
This is the story Of King David's lapse
into gross immortality and crime in respect
to Uriah and Bathsheba his wife. Saul
and Jonathan are introduced, altho. there
is no special necessity for Juggling them in.
The beautiful Bathsheba is introduced as a
maid to whom witch prophesied that she
will one day sit on the throne, q queen
Uriah afterward marries her and the girl
is represented as without love for him and
repelling him from her as uncongenial.
The witch's prophecy excites her ambition
and after she fascinates David, she cheer
fully and even joyfully consents to be his.
Uriah is represented as devotedly loving
his wife. but not being allowed by her to
touch her. These variations from the
Bible account are skilfully wrought in.
Uriah's soliloquy is rather shaksperean
than Of Hittite quality.

A Good Suggestion.

A number of young people OF
Brookings, who are native South d.
kotans, "have organized themselves
into an association for the purpose of
studying the history of South Dakota,
preserving historical relics, marking
historical spots, etc.," says a dis
patch from Brookings to the dailies.
The idea is a good one. In Califor-
mia the Native Sons of the Golden
West perform q similar service and
assist in fostering that state pride
which ia essential to the development
of commonwealth. Native born
Minnesotans might we'll organize on
similar lines. The history of no
state in the union is known so we'll as
it ought to be. An instance has just
been afforded of the small knowledge
possessed of important events in state
history. 1t was proposed that the
new cruiser South Dakota be chris
tened by descendant of the first
white woman born in the state, an6
although it has not been much mor<
than q half century since that even
there 'is not positive knowledge tt

It is becoming more and more evil
dent that Pres. Parry of the Manufac.
turers Association voiced the thoughts
of most of his class when he made his
radical attack on labor unions. A
movement has started that looks like
a concerted action all lalong the line
to fight labor unions. The following
press dispatches are fair Indications
of the extent of this movement:
New York, May 14.-Recent devel-
opments show that the employers in
the building and allied trades in
every large city in the country are
now likely to join with the Building
Trades association of Manhattan and
the Bronx in a fight all along the line
against union labor.
A national federation of employers,
who give work to millions of men,
may be formed to take concerted &C.
ton against the unions and to restore
confidence to the building industry.
A prominent member of the board
managers said today:
"If our meeting tomorrow night is a
success, and I believe it will be, it is
probable that a national federation Of
employers will be formed to deal with
the extravagant demands of labor un-
ions. We have received applications
to attend tomorrow's meeting from
employers in Chicago, Philadelphia,
St. Louis, Milwaukee, Boston and
other cities which are centers of Ia
Dor industries. II such national
federation is formed it will be an Or
ganization employing millions of men
in all branches of the building indus
try.'
Kansas City, May IA -Four thou.
sand employers here have banded to.
gether to fight the labor unions that
use the boycott to gain their ends and
have organized The Employers AS
ISOLATION"
The association has decided to re.
1850 rIse ~ deliver goods to those places
S nOn-un1on men or non-uniou
'D"0o goods are Disseminated against
In this fight the general public has
little chance to take part: neverthe'
less, it is the general public that is
the main loser, no matter who wins.
If the employers loss they raise the
price on their products to make good
their loss. If the workmen loss the
price is raised anyway to make up for
losses BY suspension of business. Be.
tween organized capital and organ.
ICED labor the unorganized consumers
stand helpless to protect themselves
unless thew become Independent

the USES OF the GRAND JURY.

The grand fury in Redwood county
returned eighteen indictments against
liquor dealers in Wabasso aud WAL
nut Grove who have been defying the
Sunday law. In other portions of
the staee grand juries have been max
ing it exceedingly interesting for the
saloonmen who have held the law
lightly. In view OF the fact that the
grand jury is the only body that would
have the courage to get after violators
of this kind it is a serious question
whether the people viii vote to drive
such an institution out of existence.
At the next general election the people
of this state will be called upon to
vote on the adoption of q constitu-
tional amendment to abolish the grand
jury. Mankato Free Press. g.
For an "antiquated institution' the
grand jury system has of late years
shown itself to be mighty instru-
ment to reach a certain class of law
breakers that would be very hard to
reach otherwise. Take, for instance,
Minneapolis and the Ames gang. II
those witnesses had first been called
before an opon court where each one
could have heard the testimony OF the
others, they could have made their
tales agree, and denied everything.
Being called in secret, no one know
ing what the others had testified, per.
haps not knowing who had been called;
without the bracing influence of the
presence of friends or the assistance
OF sharp lawyers to object to ques'
tions by the prosecution, someone was
bound to break down and give the key
to the secret. For getting at the truth
without being hindered by legal auib'
bles, the grand jury system is the best
instrument we have. =, =

TO ASK FOR BETTER SERVICE.
Movement TO Petition S. v. R. r. for

There Is movement on foot to
petition the Sumpter Valley Railway
company to put an extra train on
between here and Baker City. 1t Is
urged that the present service of one
trian day makes II very inconvenient
for the business people Of this city.
For instance anyone desiring to
transact business In Baker has to lose
the best part Of two days, and remain
over night, while II there were
two train IA day service II would
amount to Il great saving of time and
money to the average citizen of
Sumpter. Besides this, Eastern
mails are frequently late and have to
lay over day In Baker, and an extra
train would catch the delayed mail
In almost every instance.
