The inquiry may be a farce. Nothing
may be shown, but this much will be
known that the workingmen of Mimi
esota wanted the evils from prison
labor competition with free labor rem
edied.
G. III. Becker, labor representative at
the legislature, reports that at a. meet
ing of the Federation Council last week
a compromise on the proposed garnish-
ment law fathered by the State Gro
GERS Association, was affected: The
bill as amended will be acceptable to
organized labor as represented by the
Federation Council. The bill provides
for all exemption Of $500 per week:
All wages of minors will be exempt
under this law.
The city council last week held up
an employment license for the reason
that it's name-The Duluth Employ
ment Company-is often confounded
with the Municipal Bureau.
The Police and License Committee
has as yet failed to bring report
against the Globe. Employment Agency,
whose clerk was fined a short time ago
for defrauding some workingmen. The
committee, it is said do not want to
make an example of a cripple. The
! clerk who was found guilty is still en-
ployed by the Globe Agency, which i'll
dicates that the firm countenanced his
fraudulent practices. This bears out
our contention that private bureaus as
| a general rule, thrive on unlawful
methods The whole system is wrong
and the council committee that hesitates
! to punish convicted violators Of the
! law, cannot be expected to offer very
much of remedy for the evils of pri-
| vate bureaus.
Ben Tillet, general secretary Of the
Transport Workers of Great Britain,

A Citizens Ticket.

Ex-Congressman Sutherland occa-
sionally breaks into print, and when
he does it is found that he usually
has something to say that Is worth
the while. His latest is in regard to
municipal politics and was brought
out i'm an interview concerning salt
Lakes proposed Citizens ticket In
part, Mr.. Sutherland says: ut Is the
duty of every citizen to be politician
in the best and higher sense OF the
word to affiliate himself with a pollti-
cal organization and to take Jealous,
active part in municipal, county,
State and national campaign. Holding
this opinion, am strongly opposed
to any move that bears the stamp OF a
so-called citizens or non-partisan
ticket in a municipal or any other
campaign" men who are elect
ed upon citizens ticket are bound to
no organization. No one is responsible
for what they do. If men elected by
political organization do not do
right the party can be and is held
responsible. And my experience is that
citizens tickets are more apt TO be
made up of weak men than the regular
partisan nominations. :" This is in
strict accord with the expressions OF
The REPUBLICAN concerning this
matter and while we have always re-
garded Mr.. Sutherlrnd as man of
great mental strength and political
foresight his stock has taken another
jump. However, the argument Will
easily appeal to the reason of every
man who stops to think.

FOR a HitChing Place.

Will some body give us an inside
tipas to what has become OF the tie
rail proposition that was about to
come before the city council short
time ago? There was move to have
a tie rail erected on the west ard
north sides of the tabernacle square
for the convenience of traders from
the outside who come to Logan and
have no convenient place to tie their
teams. At that time various bust
ness men expressed themselves as be-
ing in favor of the proposition, one or
two persons expressing themselves as
against it. Certain councilmen favor
ed the placing of the tie rail there,
ascertained that the cost would be
but about Sl75. and said that the
thing would surely be go" That
was the last of it, and the proposition
seems almost dead enough to smell
bad. 1t makes lite difference who
opposed it or for what reason, the
dropping of the matter is mistake.
The out-of- town people who come to
Logan tie up any old place-to tie
rings, telephone and electric light
poles and are strung around promis-
cously. Occasionally man leaves
his horse or team standing united for
the reason that he deems 1t too great
trouble to hunt up distant tie yard
and occasionally there is runaway.
The marshal and police usually look
after teams left standing united, but
they can't be at all places at all times.
The tie rings on the walk are not
successful for the reason that horses
can and do easily get their feet over
the tie rope, and this is liable to
cause a runaway at any time. Just
what the objection can be to tie rail
around the square as suggested is a
mystery. IL would not damage the
tabernacle or grounds, and II the street
was kept clean as IL should and would
be, there could be no offensive smell.
A rail around there would be Of sutfi-
cient length to accommodate practi-
cally all of the teams in the city at
any one time, and is certainly the
most convenient place for tie rail.
The teams would be there in a bunch
and always under the eye of the
officials and in close touch with the
business portion of the city.

The journal says we are rather
direputable bunch down here, and we
guess that paper is about about right
as 1t usually isn't. If one of the
local banks misses its cash box some
morning. the officers will now know
where their search must inevitably
end. The editor of this paper is prob
ably a degenerate, but he came from
the land of Perry S. Heath, so what
more can be expected? The Journal
saws we misrepresented that papers
circulation. as the books will show.
Well, possibly we did. 1t was urged
upon us at the time that we were
rating their circulation too high, but
we desired to give them the benefit of
a doubt. We humbly apologize and
reiterate that upon presentation of
authentic figures we will gladly make
the correction as wide as the misrep.
resentation.

President Roosevelt ordered that the

leve that there will be something

what has won the day many times
before, and is the inspiration that
leads to perfect confidence and a

To Our Subscribers.

With the advent of a free mail de-
livery, the cost of mailing newspapers
is increased at terrific ratio. Here
tofore, the mail for residents of the
city has been admitted free of charge
now each paper requires a one cent
stamp.To deliver our city list through
the medium of the postotlice would
cost between S4O0 and $500 a year at
the present, and with the increase in
list which we are sure to make, this
postage would reach a much higher
figure. Were the three papers of this
city to deliver their issues to the Lo-
gan subscribers through the poStoilice
the postage paid would more than
cover the salaries of the two mail
carriers.
The average newspaper has little
money to throw away, and as 1t Is pos
siblc TO deliver the papers by private
carrier at less cost than through
Uncle Sans agency, THE REPUBLI-
CAN has decided to inaugurate postal
system or its own. The two issues of

first issue next week we will deliver

to repeat IL. The mission OF a good
man or woman Is not to make
brothers burden heavier to carry.
Among some species Of animals, II one
becomes wounded and fails, lie is at
once torn to pieces by the Others.
Let a woman overstep the bounds OF
propriety, and whose backs are not
turned upon her? At the same time
he who ruined that fair name can con-
tinue to associate with the elite OF
society. Good men have many times
remarked. "above all things deliver
me from my friends" Why such a
remark? Simply because anything
heard or seen Is rolled under the
tongue as a sweet morscl and carried
from one to another until places are
reached, when the results of this un-
wisdom bring heavy prosecutions.
There are far too many people who
take delight in casting reflections up
on Others This is done sometimes
by nod, a wink, or a gesture, which
will set the undercurrent at work, and
without an opportunity to defend his
or her name and character, many men
and women are ruined forever. IL we
would believe one half the evil we
hear told of each other, and all the
good, il would be better for all con-
ccrned.
IL is said of the great Alexander
that he had "A large scar upon his fore
head, received in battle. In his pic
lures his left hand covers the side OF
his face and finger covers the scar.
If we would seek to cover the scars on
each other rather than lay them bare
we would be of much greater service
In this world, and lead happier, bet
ter and brighter life. Life is made up
not of great sacrifices or duties, but
of little things, in which smiles anc
kindness, and small obligations, given
habitually, are what win and preserve
the heart and secure comfort, both to
oneself and those with whom one is
associated.
