Repudiates His Own Vote as
Former Member of Duluth
City Council
Votes at Commercial Club with
Representatives of Pri-
vate Interests.

A good many people in the Fifth
ward Of the city OF Duluth have ever
maintained that Harvey A. Wing was
an insincere friend OF municipal own
ership, but the Labor World was slow
to fall in with this idea until it was
furnished the evidence Too many
people jump at conclusions from mere
differences, and we thought this to be
the rule in Mr.. Wings case.
We were mistaken. however. At
Saturday evenings meeting Of the
Commercial club, Harvey A. Wing took
sides with the representatives Of
private interests in opposing the pas
sage Of the electric lighting enabling
act, which will give to the people Of
this city the right to acquire or pur-
chase an electric lighting plant. His
vote was cast against the proposition.
What is the proposition? It is the
same one Mr.. Wing voted for while a
member Of the city council. He was
playing politics then and had no hesit-
ancy in giving such a meritorious
measure his support He is out of
politics now, and is floating under diff
ferent colOrs than when he was a men,
Der Of the city council. Why this
change of heart? 1t is up to Mr.. Wing
to answer.
After all the people do not make mis-
takes as readily as Oscar Mitchell and
Henry Nolte would have US believe.
The voters. in !: the fifth ward had
knowledge of Mr.. Wings duplicity, and
decided to keep him home. Was that
| a mistake on the part Of the people ?
In view Of what has happened during
the past week they are most fortunate
in having such an untrue man out OF
the council.
How Mr.. Wing could consistently
repudiate his own vote in the city
council we cannot understand There
is every evidence of woodchuck, and
1t is the duty Of every good citizen to
chase it out.
This criticism of Mr.. Wings action
is not because of malice. We deem
it the duty of the Labor World to all
times fairly analyze the position taken
by public men while in and out of Of
flee. Mr.. Wings course appears in
consistent to us. It is up to him to ex-
plain himself.

PERTINENT QUESTION
IN COMMERCIAL CLUB
John A. Reyes Puts Strong
Question to w. B. Silvey
That Hits Hard.
Spalding Hotel Uses Private
Plant, But Opposes Light
ing Bill. ......

A goodly portion of this page is
given up to an analysis of the vote and
arguments used at the Commercial
club Saturday evening in opposition to
the passage Of the electric lighting
enabling act now pending before the
state legislature. The question: of
whether or not the people should have
a right to vote on the proposition was
ruthlecsly cast aside by the opponents
of the measure. A whole Lot Of foreign
arguments was used, and when the
meat in the cocoanut was picked, some
very good citizens almost buried our
democratic faith when they asserted
that the people should be restricted in
their rights CT self government
w. B. Silvey Of the Spalding hotel
company. for instance, used the argu-
ment that this city was once crazy on
the question of free silver. The cham
pions Of public ownership refused to
nibble at this bait, and thus be led
away from the real argument on the
question. During Mr.. Silvey's remarks
John A. Reyes asked him where the
Spalding hotel got it's electric lighting.
Mr. Silvey replied: I'VE have our
own plant This created a good deal CT
laughter throughout the assemblage,
and after considerable hemnring and
having. Mr.. Silvey asked where there
was anything argumentative in the
question and answer. "Oh that is all
right" replied Mr.. Reyes, but I have
no private electric plant"
This settled the debate, but it left
it's impression with the honest and
thoughtful members of the club. It
was the most powerful argument OF
the evening. All that Mr.. Reyes, a
citizen, asked was that the people be
given the same right that Mr.. Silvey
enjoyed. Mr.. Silvey has his private
plant because he can get cheaper lights
with his plant How can he consist
emily oppose proposition that will
give the people collectively a privilege
that he cannot do we'll without?
There is the whole thing in a NUT
shell, and no opponent Of the proposed
enabling act can get away from It.
Again we say: Gentlemen, principles,
not interests, must govern the Duluth
Commercial club"

JUDGE LOSES IN RECOUNT.

MOORHEAD, Mimi, March 29.-The re-
count Of votes cast at the last city cleo
ton, ordered by the district court, was
made Monday. John Erickson, a de-
feated candidate for Justice, lost by four
votes at the city election, and made an
appeal to the district court for recount.
The court appointed Lew. A. Huntoon
and p. Aug. Eklund as Judges, and they
in turn selected Oscar Westberg as the
third Judge. The recount resulted disas-
trously for Mr.. Erickson, as the judges
could find but one error, and that
against him, making him a loser by five
votes instead Of four.

LONDON, Nov. S.-Money was fairly
plentiful in the market today and rates
were tolerably easy. Discounts weakened
on the prospect of substantial addition to
the Bank of England's gold reserve, but
were not appreciably affected by the an
nouncement of the issue of 100000 In new
treasury bills December l. the amount
being much below expectations. Trading
on the Stock exchange was quiet and the
market had better tone, owing to the i'm
preston that the government will not re-
Sign Immediately. The dealing mostly led
up to operations before the settlement.
Consols were steady. Home rails were ir-
regular: Americans opened dull, firmed to
parity level on New York support, became
inactive, reacted to below parity and closed
easy. Russians were lower Japanese were
supported. Copper shares wera maintained
on the advance in the price of the metals.

from the movements Of this class the nuc-
tuations we're rather narrow. The ROCK

ment on the part OF those In control OF the

recent poor showings of earnings by the

Of the extent to which stocks nave been
sold during the week by some OF the great
speculative combinations which have led
the current movement. An incident OF the
day was the sharp break in international
Mercantile Marine In the curb market,
which was attributed to a report OF the

lines the price OF bar silver rose as am

the expected gain in cash and besides that
moderate loan contraction. This was
taken to demonstrate that the speculation
