Threaten to Tie Up Havana.

Representatives of twenty-three la
Dor unions waited on Governor-Gen-
eral Magoon at Havana, Monday to
warn him that tn striking masons'
terms must be complied with or there
will be a sympathetic walkout tying
up nearly every ;ndstry in Havana.
The labor representative say they do
ont wish TO proceed to extremltles
without giving the government an or
portunity to bring about settlemcns
by arbitration.
The Governor-General promised to
do his best in the efforts for peace
and then gave warning that violence
of any kind would be rigorousl" p
pressed and that labor leaders would
serve their cause best by doing their
best to suppress all violence.
The employers already have an
nounced that they will negotiate no
further with the men, inasmuch as
enough masons are at work to supply
present needs. The support pledged
to the masons from the other unions
makes the formers position, howev r,
very strong The most important of
the masons' demands is for an eight
hour day without a decrease in wages

FREE DELIVERY OF MAILS.
Plymouth May Meet Requirements
By July LIST.

If the steady increase of the postal
business in this city continues il is
quite probable that Plymouth will
meet the requirements for obtaining
a free delivery of mails by the end OF
the present fiscal year, in March. To
obtain this free delivery, a city must
either have a population of 5000, or
the postofflce must net an annual
profit Of $4,000, aside from box rem
tai. This city does not possess a pop
ulation OF much over forty-two hum
bred, but Postmaster Yockey says
that the postoffice almost nets the
required $4,000 per year, outside of
box rental, and the income will prob
ably reach that rate by March.
When free delivery of mail is given
a town, the expense thereby incurred
is paid by the government, not by any
local tax This fact is not clearly un-
derstood by many, and has led to
many amusing incidents A certain
well known citizen of this city, ap-
preached one of the clerks at the
postoffice the other day, and inquired
about the possibility of free delivery
here. "Well'', said he, I'VE don't want
it, it will certainly kill the town as it
has done many others. and | shall
certainly vote against it," Just at
what election he was going to register
his opinion, he did not relate.
Another said that he thought the
town could get along all right with
out free delivery, because the taxes
were high enough already.
And thus it is, whenever a new
proposition meets town, the propo
sition meets its host of knockers who
know nothing about what they are
complaining Of AS the old saying
has it, Some people would kick it
they were going to be hanged.

showing the tops plainly. Nearby were
some grapes from California. They
were packed in the same kind of bas-
kets, but in looking at them from the
top you would not know that they
were packed in baskets. The baskets
were so filled that their tops were
completely covered If the man who
packed the Washington grapes had
packed them as the one from Califor-
MIA, he would have received enough
more for them to have paid him well.
1t would pay any man who has much
fruit to sell to occasionally visit our
leading markets and see how others
put up their fruits. Commission men
tell me that they have frequent COM
plants from men in certain sections
that they are not getting the prices
for their fruit the shippers from some
other sections get. I have been shown
some of the fruit that is not selling
we'll and I am not bit surprised at
the low prices they receive. I know
to certainty that much complaint
about the commission men grows out
of this imperfect packing and other
defects. If a commission merchant
is dishonest, I will not shield him
from exposure, but I must know the
facts before 1 can blame the whole
saler. The problem of putting up our
fruit in good shape is quite as impor-
tant as the growing of it.

I have frequent inquiries about the
new apple called the Delicious, being
pushed into notice by the Stark Bros.
Nursery Co., and 1 have given it con-
siderable attention. I think that it

What a change has come over the
country since l was a boy in the for
ties. Then we had no canned fruit,
that is, farmers did not can any for
Cnelr own use. We had dried apples,
peaches, pears, plums, cherries and
most kinds of berries. Our apples
for winter use were generally holed
out in the garden. The dirt over the
apples would freeze almost as hard as
a bone, and sometimes the apples, too,
roze, but they thawed out with the
thawing of the ground, and they were
but little hurt. But now we have our
cement easements, our cold storage
plants, in which we can keep fruit
not only through the winter, but
through the most or all of the follow
ing summer if we so desire. Then by
the use of the Mason jars and other
improved types we can have our per-
ishable fruit as fresh as in the sum
mer time Then, too, the greatly in
creased transportation facilities bring
the tropical fruits to our very doors.
Corydon e. Fuller, in his life of Pres
ident Garfield, says that he and Gar
field, when on their way from Ohio
to Williams College for the first time
in their lives, in New York, saw a
banana. Garfield asked a man what
1t was and the man snickered as he
told the young men. AS they walked
on Garfield said to his travelling COM
panion: "We got laughed at, but we
learned something" Where is the
young man now on his way to college
who would have to ask such ques-
ton?
It is amusing, to say the least,
what we sometimes read in the big
city dailies about farming. The other
day I read an editorial in my daily
paper about two women who bought
an apple orchard and the first year
had 10000 boxes of apples, enough
to fill ten refrigerator cars" Now, l
have filled many a refrigerator car
with apples, but never saw or heard
of refrigerator car that would hold
1900 boxes of apples. OF course, the
editor didn't think thing about the
matter except the report that he found
floating around in the papers. I have
heard of man who put so gallons
of sorghum molasses in a 40-gallon
barrel, but he did it because he was
an old cheat, but this city editor puts
1000 boxes of apples in refrigerator
car that would not hold more than 800
boxes because he is as ignorant about
such things as a horse.

John F. Schrader, of Rapid CITY.
Is an oldtime friend and schoolmate
of James 8. Sherman. the vice presi-
dental nominee Of the republican
party. Back in the east Sherman
and schrader vent to school together
and the latter said he had often
heard Sherman wish that the time
might come when he could fill one of
the most important ofices of this
country. The peculiar part of the af-
fair Is that Mr.. Schrader was nomi-
mated by the state republican conyen-
ton as n of the presidential cleo
tors. and as there is no question but
what the republicans will carry South
Dakota and that Taft and Sherman
will be elected, it will be the pleas
ant duty of Mr.. schrader to vote for
his old school mate. The pendulum
of time swings arounu many changes
and eventually brings together men
in the latter part of their lives who
have not met ST. lneir school bow
days.

With or without the saloon there
is no reason why Mitchell should not
continue to grow along in a steady
manner, not, perhaps, so fast as in
the past six or eight years, but as
the requirements demand. Mitchell
has been in need of many structures
of a certain kind for several years,
and the want has been pretty we'll
filled up to the present time, and 1T
is not to be wondered hat there
is a cessation of building in the busi-
ness part of the city. 1t will not be
long before there will come another
demand and it will be met by taking
up the building proposition again.
The western extension of the Milwau-
kee road is going to be a good factor
in attracting attention to the city's
advantageous position. and while 1t
may be slow in coming the belief is
we'll founded hat wholesale houses
in Mitchell will be supplying the
trade to the west of us instead OF its
being shipped through the city from
other points in and out of the state.
There are many things to contribute
to the growth Of Mitchell that will
become manifest in the course of
time.
Prohibition is here and it might as
we'll be given a fair test, and there
is a possibility that 1t will prove
beneficial to Mitchell in more ways
than one. 1t is a problem that will
be solved in some sort of a way dur

BUSINESS ACTIVITY BETTER

Gradually the country is swinging
back into the line of business activi-
ty with a surety of keeping within
that groove. 1t has been a slow pull
for the better conditions, but the sit
uation seems to be improving steadi-
ly. Eastern advices indicate this i'm
provement and the following edito-
rial by the Washington Post also
gives evidence of the fact:
The resumption of operations by
many mills, factories and railroad
shops in the east and west, together
with the slump in immigration, has
done much to settle the problem of
dealing with the unemployed. Yes
terday's news told of the %reopening of
mills and shops at Pittsburg,' Johns
town, Tarentum, Chicago, Sacrament
to, Huntsville, Reading and elsewhere.
giving employment to over 10000
men. The number of immigrants ar
irving during the first half Of the
year was only one-half as great as the
number of emigrants, a loss Of about
100000 laborers. Until business gets
into full swing again it is not proba-
BILE that the influx of immigrants will
add appreciably TO the number of the
unemployed.
Conditions throughout the coun-
try are very encouraging, both in
agriculture and industry. Compared
with conditions at the same time last
year. it is found that there Il almost
as much activity in trading now as
then. The midsummer slackening
Of business is not to be charged up to
this ear alone. 1t occurs every year,
and the fact that business shows
a steady gain at this dull season is
the best proof that the effect of the
October panic has disappeared in the
face Of prospects of huge crops. A
heavy fall business is in sight, and it
is in preparation for it that mills and
shops are 10 reopening. There are
fewer idle freight cars now than at
any time since last April, when the
depression reached its limit. From
that time on the trend has been to-
ward better times. as conclusively
shown by the demand for freight
cars.
The west is most optimistic over
the business situation. In the crop
raising regions bank clearings . are
now normal. Money Is piling up in
New York, where speculation is alta
%standstill. There is no longer the
slightest danger of a shortage at crop
moving time, and assurance is made
double sure in the knowledge that
$500, 600, 900 of emergency currency
can be made available at a moments
notice.
"The opinions of industrial leaders
to the effect that the approaching fall
and winter will be busy and prosper
Gus are amply borne out by the in
creasing activities of business this
month, when dullness is the rule,
even in most prosperous years."
