PRIEST WHO MEDDLED
IN STRIKE IS CA|DED
Very Plainly Told by Striking
Collar Girls That They
Knew Their Business.
Adopt Strong Resolutions Stat
ing Their Position in Strike
Vote Confidence.

The Rev. John Walsh, a meddline
priest Of Troy, N. Y, wrote a letter to
the strikers who are struggling against
the labor-crushing Cluett-Peabody COL
lar concern, advising that the girls
return to work without fourthedelay,
ending the trouble with the manufac-
turers The advice was disregarded by
a unanimius vote. After the reading
Of the communication this resolution
was adopted: Resolved, That the
letter be rejected by the union and
that the secretary be instructed to re-
ply to Rev. John Walsh and tell him
that the members of the Strachers'
Union are as capable Of conducting the
business affairs of their union as the
manufacturers union is capable of con-
Quoting theirs, and that the judgement
of eleven or twelve hundred intelligent
women in this freer country should
count more than the opinion of any
one individual" Following the adop-
ton of this resolution another was Of
fered, that the Starchers' Union look
to George Waldron, it's organizer, and
it's only adviser. This resolution was
adopted amid great excitement, the
girls rising and giving three cheers for
Mr.. Waldron.

AMERICAN EXCHANGE BANK.
sunerior St. and Third Ave. West

There is no factor in a city's bust
ness life which has stronger bearing
on it's standing in the estimation OF
the financial and business interests
of the country than it's banking instt-
tutions. In this respect our city Is very
fortunate in having so strong and re-
liable a bank as the American Ex-
change Bank Of Duluth, located on the
corner of Superior street and Third
avenue West. This is the oldest and
one of the strongest banking institu-
lions at the head of the lakes, hav-
ing been founded in 1879, and having
a capital of 100000, and an earned
surplus Of over $350,000. This house
carries on a general banking business,
receiving deposits, making loans and
discounts, buying and selling foreign
exchange, ETC., and has collection and
savings department.
A distinctive feature which has been
added recently, and which has proved
a most popular success, is the elegant
and commodious fire and burglar proof
safety deposit room and vault, which
is one of the finest in the country, and
absolutely safe from the attempts of
the most expert burglar or from the
most destructive fire. This is very
great convenience to the public, and to
all who have valuable papers or jewels,
or anything of value which they wish
to deposit in an absolutely safe place
where they can be reached conven-
iently, and where the owner can feel
perfectly assured that nothing can
happen to them. This safety deposit
room and vaults is ample to accom-
modate all desiring a vault, which are

reminding us simply Of the remnant of
that ignorance, bigotry, and avarice of
bygone days. !
The great work of reform, relief. and
improvement in the condition of men
and women of labor and their children
has advanced the morals of the man of
labor, the entire family has been elevat-
ed, resulting in the development Of bet
ter and higher attributes Of human
! character and nobler aspirations among
all for all.
On this Labor Day, 1905, let US all
take upon ourselves new resolves to
greater and better efforts to bring
! within the beneficent fold of our unions
the yet unorganized workers.
Let us earnestly and faithfully strive
to more fully earn and deserve the
respect and confidence Of the toilers of
America, and press home hour by hour,
day by day, the just claims which our
trade union movement makes upon
modern society.
Let us organize, unite, and federate,
and by the exercise and practice of the
principles of solidarity, fraternity,
honesty, fair dealing, and justice, We
shall make the days to come brighter
and better, not only for labor, but for
all.

to endeavor to show broad and kindly

Sensational Scene.

Sacramento, Cal, Jan. 3l.-There
was a sensational scene in the senate
Monday when William Corbin, secre-
tary of the Continental Building q
Loan association, was called to purge
himself of contempt in not appearing
before the committee on commissions
and retrenchment of the upper house
of the state Legislature to anwser ques-
tions regarding the alleged mismanage-
ment of that company's affairs.
Corbin was represented by Attorney
Frank d. Nichol, who said that on ad-
vice of counsel Corbin had not appear
ed before the committee. He held that
the committee had no authority to act
in this matter. The attorney then
filed an affidavit containing sensational
charges. 1t declares that the whole
purpose of the investigation is the per-
secution of DR.. Washington Dodge,
assessor of the city and county of San
Francisco, who is president of the loan
association.
