BOYCOTT |S BEING TESTED IN NOTABLE TRIAL NOW IN
 PROGRESS AT WASHINGTON

in any manner carrying on a conspir- acy to "restrain and destroy the bus mess" of the company, from conspir- ing to prevent the company from car rying on its business, from agreeing or combining to injure, destroy or in- terfere with the company s business or sale of its products by itself or any one else.
 Effect of the Boycott
 MT. Davenport, of counsel for. the company, who has represented before Congress largo industrial interests which feel themselves threatened by the radical anti-injunction legislation sought from Congress by the Federation, re- viewed the aflidavits which the Buck Stove and Range Company submitted to show the havoc wrought with its business by the boycott. The first ar gument of the the application for tenn porary injunction was made by MT. Beck, who declared that the boycott was the principal weapon of the Amer jean Federation of Labor in forcing compliance with its demands and the demands of the organizations affiliated with and subordinate to it. The ap- pearance of the name of any person or firm on the "We don't patronize !" list, he declared, was the signal for the institution of boycott, and that every official, organizer, or other agent of the Federation of the affiliated unions knew immediately what to do in the way of so injuring the business of the "unfair" concern, that to save itself from ruin it would accede to an agree ment with whatever union it was in dis pute on terms acceptable to that union. The executive council, with it's power to declare boycotts, MT. Beck said, was practically a court of last resort, with Samuel Gompers as its chief jus tice. while the word "unfair" was its verdict, and the "We don't patronize " list its writ of execution.

WASHINGTON, November 25.--With counsel on both sides admitting it is the most important capitallabor lit. igation since the Debs case, national interest has been attracted to the suit testing the labor boycott principle now pending in the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia. The Buck Stove and Range Company, of St. Louis, is seeking, with the Sherman antitrust law as it's weapon, to have the American Federation of Labor restrained from promoting boycott against its pro ducts as result of labor difficulties While this is not the first time the sherman law has been invoked against labor, it is the most notable instance in which Federal court recently has been asked to decide that the long, standing practice of the Federation to the displeasure of it's l.. 100000 affiliated and subordinate mem. bers upon an "unfair" firm is a res. traint of commerce fully as much as that exercised by trusts which have been convicted under the statute.
 The Buck company has applied for a temporary injunction, prohibiting, while the ease is vending, the contin- uance of the boycott, which is declared to have irreparably injured the com pany's business since it was declared last May by the executive council of the Federation of Labor.

Damage Done to Business

Since that time the Buck company complains that it's business has been ir- reparably injured by the activities of members of the affiliated unions in boy. cotting its stoves and ranges.
 The relief sought by the Buck Stove and Range Company is an injunction perpetually restraining or enjoining the Federation of Labor, it's officers, and members, and all others concerned, from

Line of Defense

Mir T. C. Spelling, of counsel for the defense, is the author of standard works on injunetions. He will be in charge of the arguments before Congress in be- half of the anti-injunetion legislation sought by the Federation. Also repre- senting the defense are Ralston & Sid dons, of this city.

Declaring the Boycott

As a result of this dispute, the bill
 declares, the American Federation of
 Labor was asked to and did declare a
 boycott against the Buck company and
 has promoted the boycott by every
 menas within its power. The Fedora
 tion is the supreme authority of 120 national or international unions, 1000 locals, 36 State federatons, and 530 central labor unions, representing to- tai membership of more than 100000 union working men. At the national convention of the Federation in Min neauolis in November, 1906, a resolution was introduced by George Beehtold, del egate from the International Brother hood of Foundry Employees, stating that the Buck Stove and Range Co. dis missed every member of that brother hood in it's employ as soon as it became known he was member. The reso- lution provided that the product of the Buck company be placed on the "We don't patronize list. The convention committee on boycotts, composed large ly of delegates from St. Louis favor ably reported the resolution for con- sideration by the executive coucil of the Federation. At its meeting in Washington in March, 1907, the execu- tive council declared the company un- fair and placed its name on the "We don't patronize" list. It has been pub lished in the American Federationist ever since. While the prescribed prac- tice of the Federation calls for media tion and an attempt at amicable set clement by the Federation, the com pany declares that this was never re- sorted to.

Points in tn, Contention

Argument which is clearly bringing forth the vital issue at stake began last Thursday befor, Judge Ashley M. Gould in the Supreme Court of the Dis trict of Columbia ami will be concluded probably on Thursdaq. On Friday last James M. Beck, formerly Assistant At tOrney General, who successfully pros ecuted the paper trust under the Sher man law, made his argument for the exercise of that law against the all legged conspiracy with which the Fed eration is charged to be seeking the ruin of the eompany's business. Today Mir, T. C. Spelling, of New York, counsel for the Federation, who represents it in the campaign to remove the operations of labSr organizations from the restric- tionsof judicial injunctions will make argument for the defence in which he will uphold the right to boycott. The position of organized labor is that any effort. through the courts to interfere with the exercise of boycott s by any mean s within labor's power is vio- IdNibu VA lAEhNs. " itit- ever the decision in the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia, the case will be carried to the Supreme Court of the United States.
 The ease is the more notable because the Federation officials are said to be bitter against James w. Van Cleave, president of the Buck Stove and Range Company. MT. Van Cleave is also now President of the National Association of Manufacturers. Organized labor has been exhorted to aid the defence of the suit on the ground that it was an attack from the Manufacturers As soeiation. As matter of fact, how ever, it is claimed the Manufacturers Association has nothing to do with the case.

.LAAGO0N IS TO CELEBRATE
The Glorious Fourth to Be Fittingly
Observed in Cavalier County Ne.
trOpOlis This Year.

Langdon is going to celebrate the
Fourth. 1t is many years ago since
Langdon had a rousing good old
fashioned patriotic celebration on the
Glorious Fourth and the event this
year promises to fully make up for
the omissions of years gone by. The
opportunity to make an early an
nouncement of the fact that Langdon
will celebrate came when the Lang
don Driving and Agricultural asso-
citation met and decided that as Lang
don was not included in the race
meeting schedule they would not hold
summer race meeting this year.
Plans were started at once by Lang
don business men for a monster cele-
bration for the Fourth with plenty
of big attractions to give day of
enjoyment to everybody. 1t will be
an all day celebration starting with
a parade that will in splendor out
shine that of circus. Baseball by
county teams, la cross by visitors
from across the line in Manitoba,
bowery dancing and all the other
events usually looked for will be big
ger and better than Langdon has ever
previously ATTEMPTED.

COAL REDUCED EARLIER
Bituminous Will Go Down April /, a
Month Earlier Than Usual.
Reasons Given.

The price of bituminous coal will be
reduced so cents per ton in Grand
Forks beginning April /. This is the
statement of we'll known Third street
dealer to the Evening Times today.
This is the first time in many years
that the price of coal has been reduced
before the LIST of May. It is also a
greater reduction than has been made
in many years. In former years the
coal dealers usually reduced the price
of this commodity 40 cents a ton and
this reduction went into effect on May
1. The dealer asserted that the reason
for the reduction so early this year is
to give purchasers an opportunity to
lay in a supply of coal. before the real
warm weather commences. When the
reduction was made in May not many
people took advantage of it, always
preferring to wait until fall.

BRYAN DIDN'T LOOK GOOD.


When stranger places his name on
the hotel register, 1t behooves the clerk
to show him every Difference, just as
much as If he were a known celebrity.
No matter what town the guest puts
down after his name, the clerk, If he is
wise, will bear in mind that the strang-
er may at any moment get control Of
some delegation and become promi-
nent while others sleep.
"I'll never forget the first time met
William Jennings Bryan" said Cashier
Field, at the Euclid recently, pondering
over his thought. Possibly Bryan
would not remember me, as didn't
have my mustache then, but / remem-
Der that he came to the Planters, in
st. Louis-I was clerk at that hotel
then-at the time of the Republican
convention that nominated Mckinley in
1896. I didn't know him from a load
of wood, and he didn't know me any
better. The place was chock full of
people, guests sleeping seven and eight
in room. Well, this fellow, who reg
istered as w. ]. Bryan, didn't look ex-
ira good to me. and l told him he
would have to pay in advance. OF
course, they all had to, the way things
were then. l gave him a $3.50 room,
and he occupied it along with seven
Republicans.
1T was only two months after that
when Bryan came to the Planters
again, but this time there was Wei

in his honor"

ed annual leave of absence, and at
other times not exceeding the pro
rata compensation of the carrier
whose route he may be required to
serve. A vacancy in the regular force
of carriers must be filled by the pro-
motion of the senior substitute. Sub
stitute clerks, when serving in the
place of regular clerks absent without
pay, are paid at the rate of $500 per
annum, but in no case at higher rate
than the salary of the absent clerk;
when serving as temporary clerks,
substitutes are paid the amount au-
thorized by the department, usually
at the rate of $500 per annum at Sec
ond-class offices and at the rate of
5000 per annum at first-class offices.
The salaries of clerks at the post
Offices vary according to the class
of work to be performed and the size
of the Office, but range from $500 to
$1,000 in the smaller offices to as high
as $1,000 per annum in the larger

clerks are made at the minimum sal
aries.
