ell refused to discuss the conference
other than to say his talk was very
pleasant. After the conference he left
for Chicago to attend a conference
there in the interest of the Illinois
miners. AS to his return to Colorado
he is undecided.
Speaking of his talk with Mr. Mitch
| ell, Gov. Peabody said:
The conference was very pleasant,
although productive of no result. At
its conclusion President Mitchell stat
ed that SO far as he could see there
was no immediate probability OF a set
element of the strike"
The governor added that when he
asked President Mitchell IL he had any
suggestion to make the latter said ne
believed II a committee Of the miners

A curious labor problem has
arisen in Paris, says an exchange.
The employees of the bakeries de-
handed more pay and shorter
hours. For a time the employers
resisted the demand, but public
sentiment was so overwhelmingly
in favor of the employees that the
demands were acceded to, and as a
result the bakers were compelled to
charge more for bread They had
no alternative. Practically no one
in Paris bakes his own bread and
with the poor it is decidedly the
staple article of food. Of a sudden,
public sentiment has changed and
now the people are bitter against
the employees of the bakeries be-
cause of the excessive cost of living,
due entirely to the increase in their
pay. But what is true in this case
is more or less true in all cases.
If the wages of all the people are
increased, the cost of living must
be increased. Perhaps in the end
we shall benefit but little from the
general tendency to increase wages.

Secretary Schmahl, of Redwood, has
been mentioned as a possible candidate TOR
either secretary of the state or state treas
urer, and his claim is said to be based. to
that he, as a representative of the Ger
man American element, would stand for
more in that respect than the present
incumbent, Mr.. Block. The Free Press
hasn't much time for the nationality
racket but is of the opinion that if this
old habit is to be kept up at all, questions of
this nature be left to the parties directly
affected. and who are more competent to
Judge in the matter than professional politi
cians.-St. Peter Free Press
The Free Press is strictly right
in it's statements. While it may be
good politics to have candidates of
different natiOnalities on a ticket,
vet the questions OF Americanism,
competency and party loyalty
should be the essential rules IN the
makeup of the ticket. And in this
instance it is well to add that while
both of the present incumbents OF
the Office of secretary of state and
state treasurer represent the Swed-
ish and German-American voters
both are thoroughly competent men
and have been continuous devotees
of their party.
