vacated one post before he could law
fully occupy another.
We see no confusion whatever except
in the single case Of Gen. WOOD. II he
created vacancy among the Brigadiers,
the nominations submitted are clearly
open to proper confirmation. If he has
not vacated his position as Brigadier,
and is not yet Ma ajor- General, the tangle
can be Strengthened by the promotion
of another Brigadier in his place, leaving
the question of his fitness and his worthi-

Labor's Duty in New Jersey.

1t Is evident that the attention Of labor
organizers should be concentrated upon
the State of New Jersey. Only month
ago the women of one hamlet there de-
fed the painters union and decorated
their own houses. Now the treason has
spread to another community, and vio-
lent hands have been laid on walk
ing delegate in Glen Ridge. RoMEYN
PIERsoN Of that town owns a house,
thus falling into the capitalistic class.
He observed that the house roof leaked,
and on Saturday he set about repairing
it. In the afternoon he mounted the
roof hammer, nails and shingles in
hand, in ruthless disregard Of the union
edict that no labor shall be performed
after noon on the seventh day.
While Mr.. P1ERsoN violated the union
rule walking delegate espied him, In
quired whether he was scab or a union
man, and threatened to mount the roof
and throw him of the building MIR.
P1ERsoN promptly came down from the
roof, but not to quit work Instead, he
seized the walking delegate and pro-
PEELED him in the manner known as
walking turkey to the gate. There
Mr.. PIERsoN advised the delegate not
to return, and then, like forehanded
man, returned to his shingles.
These incidents teach the benighted
and unregenerate state Of come Jersey
men. Labor's duty Is clear. President
GoMPERs, President MITCHELL, Mr.. OAR
ROW and the other leaders Of the new
thought should devote their attention
to New Jersey.

THE personnel of the Fourth OF
July committee, and the author
ity under which it is acting is
made perfectly clear to the pub
lie in an article, by w. 4. Logue
secretary OF the committee,
published in the Panhandle News
the article being an explanatory
answer to an article contained
in last week S issue of the TRI-
BUyE, wherein attention WAS
called to the ignorance OF the
public as to who were the com
mittee, and its seeming lack OF
authority, in view of the fact
that no public meeting had been
held, as is customary on such
occasions. This explanation
should have appeared two weeks
earlier, and it was owing to the
absence of an explanation in the
Panhandle News, as well as the
fact that we were informed by
business men, Mr.. Logue's de-
clarations to the contrary not
outstanding, that they knew
nothing about a committee or a
celebration, except that it had
been talked about,-owing to
this, the TRIBUNE hesitated to
advertise, having learned the
seeming uncertainty OF the stu
alton after accepting the copy
submitted Ly Mr. Logue. 1t
might be OF interest to Mr.. Logue
to learn that the notice and the
posters calling a public meeting
fortune 1st, were printed at the
request OF q business man. Such
"a misunderstanding is the nat,
ural consequence of such an un-
usual manner in getting up al
affair of this character, which is
for the,public. 1t is public, now
but Was not public, until the ar
ticle in last weeks issue OF the
TRIBUNE, made it public. Every
thing is now clear, everybody
knows what has been done ana
how, and that every effort is be.
ing made by the committee to
arrange tile best and biggest eel
ebration ever held in Rathdrum
or Kootenai county. Thank you
