Miss Kribs, who lives with her
mother, is an employe of the Cen
sus Office. When two years old
she fell from a window receiving
injuries which made her a cripple.
1t seems that shortly after the death
of her father which occurred over
twenty years ago, the family was
broken up, and a younger sister
was temporarily taken care of by
an aunt by marriage, who took the
child abroard. For a period of two
years letters were regularly receiv-
ed from the aunt giving details of
the little ones health. Then came
a letter containing the sad news of
the child's death and burial. For
more than twenty years the mother
! mourned her little one as dead. An
elder sister visiting in Duluth last
month got a clew that the sister
long supposed dead was alive. The
clew was followed and the dis
covery made that the long mourned
for daughter was alive and we'll in
Manitoba, and married to a wealthy
ranchman. Mrs. Kribs immediate
ly arranged to visit her newly found
child and left Washington the early
part of last week. Miss Marie, in
search of health, departed Saturday
for Lourdes, France, where she will
try the healing waters of the shrine
there. Upon her return a family
reunion will be held in Washington.
Honorable James A. Tawney, the
vigorous and influential Representa-
| tive from the first district, came in
to Washington with the storm on
Tuesday evening and, after a strenu-
GUS day in the departments, was
waited out on another storm on
Wednesday afternoon. Some Of
his friends who were trying to find
him declared that Mr.. .Tawney was
to busy to eat or sleep while he was
here. He was asked if his people
were believers in the "standpat"
| doctrine and said: 81 would not
put them in that category excactly.
| am satisfied that there is a consid-
cradle sentiment in Minnesota for a
modification of certain schedules of
the existing tariff. But in this con-
nection it can also be said that there
is a very general acquiescence in the
policy of the administration, which
is to defer Legislation on the tariff
until after the next presidential
election. ''This idea was advanced
by the President when he visited
our state, and it seems to have met
the entire appreciation of IT, Re-
publican press and vot> "e.
time to make needed chang ne
revenue laws is after a al
campaign, which of itself IL
dency to disturb the business y, me
country, SO as to avoid the addition
of further disquieting conditions"
John A. Miller, formerly well
known in printing circles in Mime
apolis, and lately assistant foreman
of the bookbinders at the Govern
ment Printing Office, has succeeded
in stirring up a pretty mess at the
big printery.
According to the president of the
Bookbinders' Union. Mr.. Miller's
methods were not in conformity
with the rules, and his manners
were so offensive that the Union, af-
ter due consideration, expelled him.
Public Printer Palmer, evidently
following a precedent long esta-
blished, Immediately dismissed Mr..
Miller, no other grounds being
given except that he was persona
non grata with the Union. M.
Miller referred this matter to the
President and the Civil Service
commission with the result that the
public printer was ordered to rein
state Mr.. Miller, the grounds for
dismissal being held as insufficient
and not in accordance with the Civil
Service law. MI. Miller has not re-
turned to work, and the bookbind-
ers have given it out that they will
walk out when he does. The I'm
ion is confident that upon a full
presentation of the facts the Presid-
ent will recede and will withdraw
his order for reinstatement. In the
event that MI. Miller returns to his
place, some startling developments
are probable. If the bookbinders
refuse to work every other labor Or
g~anization in the big building will
Join with them, and the public
printery will shut down. The pre-
sident is not expected to recede
from his position, SO the Union will
have to ''put up its gun or shoot"
