HEaEENER v.. THE GRAFTER.

IL ~
AT the national convention Of the
United Mine Workers a resolution
restricting the earning capacity Of
the miner was referred to the scale
committee. The resolution says:
"That this convention place a re-
striction Of $3.50 per shift, clear of
all mine expenses, on all miners
working at the face. "
This means that no ''miner at the
face" shall be permitted to earn
more than $3.50 a shift under any
circumstances. This may be salts
factory to the miners who are will
ing to forfeit their right to earn as
much as they desire, but the miner
who has any ambition, who is ener-
getic, industrious and hopes to make
some Roadway in this world will
hardly understand the logic Of such
a resolution, particularly since the
agitators are permitted TO draw their
$500 day and expenses, and to
take a political graft besides where
ever opportunity offers.
The United Mine Workers seem
determined to maintain their repu-
tation for taking away the money of
the workers for the benefit Of the
idlers and loafers. Homecoming

Turn on the Light" the booklet in
which Olga Louise sCadiiah recently
charged club women with race suicide
and neglect of home and children. Is
soon to be overshadowed by statistical
reports proving the falsity of Cadijah's
statements.
At the time of the publication, which
startled club women throughout the
country, many clubs assaulted the work
and emphatically denied the charges,
also obtained facts and figures relative
to the matter. 81
The data procured has proved the
ideas expressed In the booklet to be
absolutely false; that many Of the
brightest children are those whose
mothers are club women; the happiest
and best kept homes, are those presided
over by women interested in clubs
and the percentage Of divorces applied
for by club women is so small az to
establish the fact that clubs are q

SEVENTY TRAINS ON.
GREAT NORTHERN
EVERY DAY
Congested Condition of Traffic
During Busy Season Brings
Ninety-Eight Daily.

Last evening in his talk before the
Y. M. G. A. Chief Dispatcher Maxwell
of the Dakota division of the Great
Northern, gave some interesting in
formation as to the number of trains
run through Grand Forks in response
to several questions from his audi
ence.
Mr.. Maxwell said that the Dakota
division had thirty-two passenger
trains daily and eighteen regular
freights. Take the extra trains run,
Mr.. Maxwell placed the number of
trains run by the division daily for
the year at seventy. This is under
normal conditions. The miles of
trackage in the division is sos.
Last fall during the busy season,
the number of trains went as high as
ninety-eight daily. AT one time there
were nineteen trains west from Grand
Forks for distance where there
were only fourteen switches. To re-
lieve the congested condition, a num-
Der of trains were backed up the
Sarles-Lakota branch and held until
the track was opened so that the
switches equalled the trains.
This volume of traffic gives some
idea of how large is the business of
Grand Forks and its territory. When
It is considered that the Great North
ern runs most of its freights about a
mile long, the number of cars handled
daily is a matter of amazement.

NOTES FROM WASHINGTON.
Gossip Of the Capitol Written for
The Evening Times.

Washington, Feb. 15.-Alexander
Mcdowell, clerk of the house of rep.
resentatives, has asked the house and
senate for an appropriation of $500
wherewith to pay the cost of removing
from the capitol: to the library Of con-
gress documents no longer needed by
the members of the two houses. That
is the amount given him little more
than year ago. He needs another
appropriation because by the time he
got rid of the mass of useless docu-
ments then on hand there had been
another accumulation just as large.
1t looks now as If there would have to
be an annual appropriation of about
that amount of money for that pur.
pose.
No one has any idea of how much
paper and ink the government uses
for the publication of absolutely use
less information until some item like
that comes along to attract attention
to the lavish waste of money for print
ers' ink. In the case of the govern
ment it takes several barrels of ink
to cause even little flutter of The
thinking apparatus of the millions. A
drop of ink to make millions think is
very nice way of calling attention to
the good works men have got out wi h
white paper and black ink, but the
man who said it never had the average
government publication in mind.
Speaking of that appropriation to
carry useless documents from the CAP
itol to the library made Representative
J. Van Vechten Olcott of New York
think of the time when he was very
green in the game of national law
making. Before he was sworn in he
received notice from the postmaster at
New York that there were % sacks of
mail for him at the postoffice which
he could have by calling for it.
He had no idea what sack of mail
was, so he sent his Office boy around to
get it, thinking that the youngster
could make several trips and bring it
to his office. The boy came back and
reported that he could not even lift
sack
and tried to put his own six-feet-three
under one of the sacks, but failed. The
sacks were filled with bound copies of
consular reports eand each sack
weighed over 200 pounds.
II paid S. to have them hauled to
my two-by-four stable in New York.
said the representative, rubbing his
chin refectively. Yesterday 1 got
peremptory order from Mrs. Olcott
to remove those books because she
needed the stall for horse she
bought 1t cost me So more to get rid
of them"
Senator Tillman and Representative
Gillespie. the two democratic con-
gressmen who are doing their best to
make insomnia chronic with President
Cassatt Of the Pennsylvania, are of the
same physical type of men. They look
as II they had been hewn out of blocks
of granite with huge hammer. They
are both very dark and rather forbid
ding in their aspect. Gillespie has a
poor eye, 30 that the resemblance is
heightened because Tillman lost one
of his eyes when he was q youth.
In speech. however, they are unlike
Gillespie is soft-spoken, while Tillman
is rather harsh. Gillespie is serving
his first term. Neither he nor the
senator from South Carolina ever
hopes to win anything. in a beauty
show.
