union LABOR MIGHT
TAKE HAND IN FIGHT
Organized Labor Considering
Putting Their Own Candi-
date UP for Sheriff.
Many Good Men to Select From
in Labor Ranks-Man Of
Honor Needed. S.:

At the convention OF the Minnesota
State Federation OF Labor to be held
at saltwater next month it is expect
ed that a well framed political pro-
gram will be presented to the deleea-
tton, and following the meeting can
dtdatcs for the legislature in several
districts Will be put in the fild.
Already in Duluth, union men are
getting busy. They have even gone so
far IN to suggest candidates for sheriff.
In spite CT Mr.. Arnlstead's claim labor
men are not quite satisfied with re-}
cent developments
Ole Larson. one Of the candidates, IL
member Of the steam filters union,
and would be very acceptable, but it Is
feared that he cannot poll a sufficient
vote to land him In the Office.
1t takes more than a mere union card
to make a good sheriff. If labor goes
into the fght it should choose a man
who is broad enough to perform his
duty without fear or favor Union
labor does not want q man who will
give it the best Of it, nor does it want
man who vii serve the interests OF
the Steel Corporation, without consid-
erat'on for the rights OF others.
II union labor violates the law pun
Ishment should be meted out to it, and
on the other hand If the Steel Corpor-
alton or any other industry wants to
use the office of sheriff to help it crush
workfngmen, then 1t should be given
the same dose as would be given to
won kingmen, should the tables be
turned.
" hat Is wanted Is man who will
give a square DEAL In the past when
a strike occurred on the ranges a num-
Der of deputies have been sent to the
scene OF the strike, and loss of life
usually followed. A tactful sherifr
would act In time 50 that there would
be no necessity for loss Of life or de-
struction Of property .
The Duluth unions have among their
membership a large number Of men
who are big enough and broad enough
to hold the office Of sheritr with credit
to themselves and the people.
i There is jim. Bishop Of the marine
eE8ineess, cool. deliberate ana wise.
He, Is q better man than any.aaW-1h
the field. James Walsh Of the L. q. p
A.. Is: also known for his good 1jud,-
ment and quiet manner. He would ~
a dandy.
Big Captain Boyer Of the same union
lacks nothing in Qualification or avoir-
dupois to make an exceptionally fine
sheriff.
If you don't want a marine man
there are several in the Building trades
who are available.
William Harbor Of the Builders' Ia
oorers. a member Of the Naval Re-
serve and secretary Of the Building
trades Alliance would be dandy.
Samuel Maghan OF the Plasterers
has friends by the hundreds in and out
OF the movement. Tom Freshney OF
the Painters. Ed. Lowe of the Carpen-
ters and w. K. Fowler of the same
union, all would be whirl winds.
Joseph Shartel Of the Trades Az
sembly Is of the best timber. w, D.
Dean Of the Printers can't be beat.
There are hundred such men, and it
Is shame to see the election pass
without selecting one of them to NIL

the mayor, who-rather embarra ssedly-
questioned her for half an hour without
being able to obtain any information as to
her identity

always lived in a forest" she repeated

accounts of an amusing adventure which
has befallen the famous Hungarian prima
donna, Fraulein Fedak. who is an ardent
motorist and always drives herself.
She is well known in all the villages in
the neighborhood of Pesth, as she fire.
quently succeeds in killing few dogs and
poultry on her fast runs. Her latest ex-
plot was to run into a great flock of geese
In the village of Szepesvelphely.
She did not stop to inquire as to the ex-
tent of the damage done. but the villagers,
knowing that she must return the same
way, barricaded the roadway. When she
came back she was unable to pass and the
villagers produced 40 dead geese. the own
ers OF which presented bills at shilings
each. They said she had killed them all.
Fraulein Fedak smilingly paid up, and
the geese were then loaded in the car The
famous singer departed with her novel
bag" amid the loud cheers of the vii
layers, who had never previously sold
geese on such advantageous terms.

NEW DANISH ExEcUTIoNER
Several Horrible Crimes Makes the
Creation of Lapsed once

COPENHAGEN. Sept. 2s.-(special Cable
gram to The Bee.)-A giant by the name OF
Christensen, who used to be policeman
of the city of Slagelse, has been selected
from lSS applicants for the post of public
executioner TO the government Of Dem
mark.
II is more than twenty years since the
last execution took place in Denmark,
owing to the refusal OF the late King
Christian TX to sign death warrant
The reason for the change is that there
have recently been a number OF murders
of a particularly atrocous character.
Christensen will combine with his duties
as executioner that of nogging. The Danish
parliament last year passed law provid-
ing for the hogging OF hooligans. IL has
yet to be seen whether the judges intend
10 make use of this law. which was
strongly opposed.
