Editor A. B. Allen. Compliments
ItfOr Fairness

Col. A. B. Allen, editor of the Morton
Enterprise and prominent politician
of his district, was caller at the state
capitol yesterday. Col Allen, who is
Familiarity known to the newspaper
fraternity of the state as the
"Growler," was defeated in his effort
to- send a Dunn delegation to the Re-
publican state convention, and says
that it was impossible to get news at
home from the Renville county Collins
delegation of the proceedings of the
convention until the nomination had
been made some hours.
1T is the old case of the baseball
team going away from home to play
ball. If they win they keep the wires
hot, but if defeat gets them, it is hard
to learn the result of the game, and
somebody other than the losers tell
about it, saidTAllen.
by the way" said Col. Allen, 'as
a newspaper man who believes in Civ
ing accurate news of current events,
I want to. congratulate The Globe
on the fairness and accuracy of its
political news and forecasts during
the last; weeks of the Republican cam
paign preceding the state convention.
Down our way, people who were not
partisans and wanted the actual facts
in the situation threw away the other
papers and read 7 he Clio b e exclu-
sively. If they read the other news
papers of the Twin Cities at all, it was
simply to- see what new CULVER tales

Will Buy Registers in Open Market
/ Since but one bid was received for
the register faces required to complete
the heating and ventilating of the
building, and the sum asked was con-
fsidered high, the bid for this work
was referred to Cass Gilbert, with in
E structions to buy the registers in the

Authority was given the officers of
the commission to advertise for bids
for grading the grounds leading. UP to
the new capitol. Since the building
is not completed and the season is
somewhat. advanced, the commission
will not put into effect this year any
general plan of landscape for the
grounds, but will simply terrace the
grounds and SOW grass seed. There are
nearly nine acres in the capitol grounds
and eventually it is proposed to form
one of the finest parks in the West
from the grounds.
The board decided for the present
not to install any system of clocks in
the new state capitol. The lack of
funds is assigned as the cause, and
the clocks will await a later date for
their purchase.

URGES SINGLE. LABEL
j n. Gleske Proposes That
Unions Adopt Universal One.

AT the meeting of the Label league
in Federation hall last evening ]. H.
Gieske, delegate from the BARRIERS
union, proposed that the unions adopt
a universal label, this: signifying that
one label should be used by all the diff
ferent unions.N fa s- ,'ft 's
Gieske argued at some length upon
the necessity Of such a move contend
ing that as matters now stand each
union is principally concerned in push
ing it's own label to the front, and is
not particularly anxious as to the
calls for goods bearing the label Of
other unions. In his judgment there
should be but a single label, Issued by
the American Federation Of Labor, and
this label should appear on all produce
lions Of union labor.
AS the matter stands at the present
time, explained Gieske," the label is
beneficial only to few unions, such
as the cigarmakers, the printers, the
garment workers, the shoemakers and
others, but if there should be uniVer-
sal label it would prove CO benefit to
all members of organized labor. The
label would be the label of the BARRIERS
as we'll as of other unions, with the re-
suit that all organized labor would feel
compelled to uphold it by purchasing
goods bearing the insignia"
There was considerable opposition to
the propositions from. delegates from
other unions, il. being commended that
it would be useless to undertake such
a radical departure from present Gus
tom in st. Paul, and that it would be
better to wait until the American Fed
Grafton has declared for such a. plan.
Gieske replied that it would be to the
advantage of the ST. Paul unions If the
agitation for such a label is started
here, and that if necessary the local
Trades and Labor assembly set the ex-
ample by issuing such label, thus
demonstrating in. a practical way that
the plan will work satisfactorily.
The proposition was laid over for
further, caI1sidnra tinr
