A WARNING.

1t Is q fact not generally known by
members of the labox unions and their
friends, that G. M. Post, of Battle
Creek, Mich, proprietor and manu-.
faeturer Of substitute for coffee
known as 'Fostu111 Cereal." and
Grape Nuts is one of the principal
hackers Of the infamous Los Angeles
Times, which has given 80 much
trouble to the cause Of organized labor
Of all classes during tho past few
years. and 1t is also true that he Is
one Of the leaders Of the organization
known as the ''Manufacturers' Asso.
ciation," whose sole purpose is the
fighting Of labor unions Also it Is q
fact that he has been the cause of
many strikes and lockouts that have
occurred within the past year..in the
different trades.
Now that MI. Post has taken it up
on himself to--use his influence and
his money to prevent laboring men
from exercising their rights as Ameri-
can citizens in organizing for the pur.
pose of improving their social and
financial condition., We believe it to
be the duty of every lover of right
and Justice to refuse to purchase the
product of this wou]d-be destroyer Of
unionism, and do all In our power to
discourage its sale. Published BY

Welcome


Welcome
The Duluth CONNER cial Club sends
out the following: -
The Democratic State convention to

vention to be held at st. Louis, July
9Th, will be held at Duluth on June
22nd. The official call for the conven-
tion announces that the convention
will be called to order at II a. m.
Since sending out the call, however,
it has been found advisable to change
the hour Of converting to 2 80 p. m.
in order to accommodate delegates
who leave the Twin Cities the morn.
ing OF the convention. This change
will enable delegates arriving on the
st. Paul. and Minneapolis trains at
.. m. ample time to get to the con.
vention hall before the actual work OF
the convention is begun, and also
enable them to remain through the
session and get back to the Twin
Cities on the night trains.
The railroads have made the follow
ing rates to the con 7ention: /. "A
fare of one rate plus fifty cents from
any point IN Minnesota to Duluth and
return; 2. A rate of one fare plus
fifty cents from points in southern
Minnesota to St. Paul and return and
a rate of So. 90 from st. Paul, Mime
apolis or Saltwater to Duluth and re-
turn. Delegates will be given which
ever rate will be the lowest from their
respective station to Duluth. There
are eight trains each way every twen-
ty-four hours over the Great Northern.
Northern Pacific, and Northwestern
lines, and delegates will have no diff
Guilty in avoiding unnecessary delays.
Full information can be obtained from
local ticket agents In ample time to
arrange for the trip.
The Duluth Commercial Club was
largely instrumental in getting the
convention for Duluth and is making
every arrangement to extend every
courtesy to the delegates and their
friends in order to have them enjoy
their visit to the Zenith City. The
Public Affairs Committee of the Club,
composed of the leading business men
of the city, have provided funds for
the entertainment of their friends,
and while complete arrangements
have been made, complimentary
boat ride around the harbor and across
the lake has been determined on for
those who may care to male the trip.
Other details are being arranged and
every effort will be made to have the
delegates and their friends understand
that Duluth is glad to have them
come. get acquainted with her people
and see the sights of the greatest in
land port of the Americas.
1t will also be of interest to those
contemplating making the trip to
know that Duluth does rot intend to
try and make the convention a money
making enterprise. The hotels will
give the visitors their most reasonable
rates both on the American and
European plans, their accommodations
are ample, and all appointments are
first class.
Hotel reservations may be made or
any further information may be OBJ
tanned by communicating with the
Commercial Club, Duluth.
