FLOUR CITY UNIONS
FEAR EMPLOYERS PACT
Trades Assembly Appoints
Committee to- Investigate
Charges Made.
Some Members Claim Employ
ers Decline to Employ Men
From Other Firms.

MINNEAPOLIS, May 3O.-Some of
the labor unions are much exercised
j over what appears to be an agreement
between certain manufa cturers regard
ing the employment Of men. At the
last meeting of the Trades Assembly,
some Of the delegates brought the mat
ter up. and 1t developed that certain
firms were believed to have under
standings with each other to the effect
that they would not employ Workmen
from another employers place Of BUSH
ness at an advance in salary, nor at
any rate of pay unless the applicant
possessed a "clearance'' from his for
mer employer. Complaint was made
that this alleged combination had the
effect Of suppressi1g legitimate COM
petition in the labor market between
employers, and also prevented work.
men in these lines from securing wages
based upon the law Of supply, and de-
mand.
That the delegates regard the agree
ment as reality is borne out by the
fact that instances were cited where
employees of one concern had: gone to
another where it was known help was
needed and made application in the
usual way. It is said that these ap-
plications were taken. but when it be-
game known that the applicant was in
the service Of a rival company, the
seeker after work was informed that
"a gentlemen's agreement existed be-
tween the firms ngaged in similar lines
of business, to the effect that they
would not take workmen from one an
other at increased pay and under no
circumstances unless the applicant
should voluntarily leave the employ OF
the other concern and remain idle at
least two weeks before making appli-
cation anywhere else.
It was decided after long discus
sion that an investigation of the
charges should be made by the griev-
ance committee of the assembly, and if
there is such combination or agree
ment as is charged, It is the intention
Of the assembly to take action to see
if it does not violate the state anti
blacklist law.
Delegates to the convention Of the
State Federal ton of Labor were elected
as follows: A. E. Kellington, Thomas
Van Lear G. w. Deacon. NJ. w. Mo-
gan and c. F. Ford. The contest for
delegates was spirited, there being
eleven in the race. Five alternates
were also elected. '.''' '.'E'.

GEN. WELLS WONDERS
WHY BELL is SORE

BOISE, Idaho, May 30.-Replying to
Sherman Bells statement and reported
challenge, Buckley Wells said last
night:
Il do not understand why General Bell
should be calling me hard names. If
the report is accurate that he has
challenged me to a duel, do not I'M
derstand that either.
Il have never in any way impugned
General Bell for either his courage, his.
requirements as a field officer or his
competency as adjutant general. L
have had no quarrel with him. When
T. succeeded him as adjutant general
EifUund the. forces disorganized, but
tffat was no fault Of his. It was in
svttable for me in the circumstance
oftthea service the men were called up
of1;t:to perform.
:sfsrt= Regiments DwindIe away.
et"Fhe men were unwilling to e-en-
Hist and the regiment had almost
dwindled away. But. that was in no
way due to General Bell; neither was
the financial condition due to him. I
have already expressly said so. think
that a discussion Of this sort under
the present circumstances is altogether
regrettable.
Again let me say that seek no
quarrel with General Bell. And have
made no charges against him.
Buckley Wells was surprised when
the character Of Bells statement was
communicated to him. He spoke Of
his as a man Of great courage ,abso-
lutely fearless, and f1rst-class field
officer.

Stunning the office of adjutant general

Of this state in a disorganized condi-
ton. Upon assuming office found
that during the previous admlnistra-
ton (meaning Bells administration
no books of accounts, other than a
voucher record, had been kept in the
adjutant generals office, and the f1nan-
cial records of the department were,
therefore, almost entirely lacking"
Former Adjutant General Buckley
Wells biennial report to the governor
contains the foregoing statement,
which Is regarded by his predecessor.
Gen. Sherman Bell, and his friends;
to be a reflection upon the Bell admin
tstration Of 1904, which stood the
brunt Of the labor conflicts in the Grip
pie Creek and other districts Of the
state during that stormy period.
General Bell will investigate the
Wells report, and may call upon Gen.
eral Wells on the latter's return from
Idaho, where he is a factor in the
prosecution Of the Western Federation
of Miners officers. for an explanation
and may ask a retraction Of the part.
Quarrel Over Dates.
''You may say for me that Wells
did not take office on April 1, but April
4, 1906" SAID General Bell today, when
all the g.bernatorial and legislative
troubles were over. Everything and
everybody was safe-even the state
militia.
Il turned over to him all the cert
ifticates Of Indebtedness in nv hands
which 1 had been unable to secure
the. cash upon, and with all the cam
patgns had on my hands it remained
for the Telluride campaign No.. 2 to
fail in its performance as to cash.
Il nave official receipts for these
certificates of Indebtedness, issued on
account of the Telluride campaign,
and remaining unpaid. I got the mo-
ney from Chicago people to pay my
troops In the last Telluridge campaign,
which covered the time I was holding
Meyer, and the discount on those cert
1hcates necessary to cash them was
raised by me from other sources,
foreign to the mine owners associa-
ton, and particularly does this refer
ence apply to the Smuggler- Union
Mining company, Of which Wells is
part owner.
He Had Good Soldiers, He Says.
Il had one Of the best national
guards and armies in the world when
1 was adjutant general Of Colorado.

mutterings Of the notorious tyrant as
follows:
Hist! What mutterings are these
that have begun so ominously-to
charge and surcharge the air with
bellicose action?" whisperingly asks
today a new janitor of the state house,
with some seeming alright.
Tut, tut! merely vaporings Of the
former Colorado warrior, Gen. Sher-
man Bell" vouchsafed a second WELD
or of the broom at the seat of govern
ment.
This ertswhile chief of the Colora-
do Army Of Conquest is just blowing
on some steam, pent up some two
years or more. It must come out or
there will be a disastrous explosion"
addel the speaker.
And So the ancient history Of the
Colorado conflicts under Bell, and his
eagerness to expose without thus far
exposing, is being exploited by Pea
body's mighty adjutant general in
way that provokes comment such as
tbs dialogue above
Bell on Usual Warpath.
General Bell went. on the warpath
yesterday in seeming earnest, and he
promises to keep 1t up with direful
! effect until his aggrieved feelings are
burned out.
Impotently does he wage war by
word Of mouth against his successor
in office, General Wells, because the
latter indicated in his biennial report
that the state guard was disorganiz-
ed when he took it over. from Bell
| In 1905; also that Bells method OF
bookkeeping was not according to
Hoyle and for that reason had been
| changed to a system more satisfactory
| to Wells.
More-Bell, as commander of the
! state guard, shows where he entered
| a written agreement with Wells and
J other mine owners in Telluride where
| by the latter were. to furnish the
J sinews OF war to the state, taking the
states certificates of indebtedness for
the expenses Of the war in the Tel
luride district, but that Wells and his
mining associates have evaded their
solemn obligation. p ....,>.
Mine Owners Paid Bills.
| He also charges that the same sys-
tenn of carrying on the war in the
| Cripple Creek and other districts was
used, and that the state guard under
his command pulled the chestnuts of
the mine owners out OF the fire on
condition that ! they; finance the war.

4 Good Result.

Under the operation of the new Pure
Food Laws, baking powders now gener-
ally bear on the labels statement of the
ingredients. This is OF utmost impor-
tance because of the harmful ingredients
used in many cases.
Royal Baking Powder is known to be
the only baking powder made of Royal
Grape Cream of Tartar, and this nc
doubt explains its greatly increased sale
here.
Careful housekeepers are taking ad-
vantage of the protection which tn G
Laws afford, and are examining all the
reading matter on the back of the label
before adopting any brand for use in the
home.
When in place of the words Cream OF
Tartar the words "alum" aluminium"
or phosphate Of lime" appear among
the ingredients, they heed the warning
and avoid baking powders containing
these substitutes.

EXTENDED TRIP
IN EUROPE
DR.. Hfggs Returns After Years Alb
sence From Heppner.

DR.. Higgs who left Heppner {
little over a year ago, returned
Monday, after having spent mos
of the time in Europe.
After taking a course in eye, ear
nose and throat in Chicago, the
doctor sailed for Europe, ,slandine
at Hamburg, Germany, after a two
weeks voyage.
From Hamburg he went to Ber-
lin and visited the clinics, after
ward gong to Liepsig, Dresden
and Munich, also visiting Zurich,
Switzerland, and Naples, Rome,
Venice and Vienna, studying for
several months in the latter city.
Leaving Vienna he went to Bar
men, Germany, through Holland,
and to London, sailing from Eng
land on June IA, coming across in
seven days.
The doctor says that the poor
people in all of Europe are hav-
ing very hard time and it is no
wonder that many are coming to
the United States.
Taxes in all Of the Kingdoms are
very high. He says that he was
told by business man in Vienna
that it took about 35 per cent of
his income to pay his taxes.
Standing armies and the royal
families seem to be expensive lux
uries, causing a spirit of unrest
that is apparent everywhere.
The doctor visited the summer
home of the Kaiser. The palace
was built $50 years ago by Frederick
the Great and is marvel of lux
ury, being filled with priceless
paintings, while the gold and sill
yer decorations are elaborate in
the extreme. This is only one
palace out of 81 owned by the
Kaiser, costing millions.
Germany being only about the
size of the state of Illinois, makes
it hard proposition for the
people, still on account of being a
better country, Germany is more
prosperous than either Austria :.or
Italy. In Europe crops are bad
this year.
The doctor says that he was
greatly impressed with Rome and
the historical sights to be seen in
The ancient city.
DR.. Higgs is glad to get back to
Morrow county and thinks that
this is the best country on earth.
