crease Wages.
Columbus, O., Dec. l.-Independent
glass manufacturers, after lengthy
conference here, decided to stand pat
on the wage scales signed with their
employees last September and to re-
fuse to make any concessions. The
decision means that 10000 men will
remain out of work until such time as
they choose to come to the manufac-
turers' demand.
There are about $500 skilled labor
ers in the unions which made demand
for an increase, said to be from rs to
40 per cent, when they quit work last
Friday evening. Dependent on their
continuing work are about 4,500 other
men.
The manufacturers agreed to close
down their plants until the men are
willing to come back at the scale they
signed for one year last September.
If the men of any one plant want to
return to work that manufacturer will
resume operations Immediately, re-
CARELESS of the other plants.
1t was agreed that the manufactur-
ers will not ask for conference with
their men, nor will they offer any con.

DOTTSON AN OCTOPUS.

]. P. Dottson of Crookston is the
real newspaper octopus" of the
northwest, as he is the owner of
the two best papers of Crookston,
and what is more, makes no bones"
of the fact that he is the real
head of both the Daily Times and
Daily Journal. During the recent
campaign, Dottson conducted the
Times as the advocate of the repub-
lican candidates, and the Journal
put forth every effort in behalf of
Governor Johnson and his party.
Dottson is peculiar cuss, and his
entrance into the journalistic circles
of this part of the state was the
signal for rather peculiar methods,
to say the least.

"WHEN THE SHOE PlNCHES"

A business man who sends his
order for envelopes down to Uncle
Sam, and his order for calendars to
some big printing concern in the
city, has no legitimate kick" COM
ing from the farmer who sends his
cash away to the big mail order
establishments, says the Bertha
Headlight. Both, however, in do
ing so are engaged in an illogical
effort to permanently retire from
local circulation the cash which
properly belongs to it. To be sure
one has a perfect right to trade
wherever he pleases, butt is best
for local interests that the privilege
be not used to the detriment of local
enterprise. Moral: Those who re.
side in glass houses should not en-.
gage in stone throwing contests.

SUBSCRIPTION---S5.OO PER ANNUM
HITCHCOCK 4 POOR POLITICAL PROPHET


1t is reported that R. w. Hitch
cock of the Hibbing Tribune, while
in Bemidji recently soliciting calen-
dar orders, said that he would, be-
ginning the first of the coming
year, write editorials for the Duluth
Evening Herald, indicating to the
gentleman in whom he confided that
his (the elongated one's) ability was
such that he can prepare matter for
either republicans or democrats.
Hitchcock has been trying for
several years to be on the winning
side of the different gubernatorial
contests, and his political guesses
have been about as nearly correct as
was his measuring of legal matter at
the time he was conducting the
Pioneer and was defendant in
charges of too liberal padding of
printing accounts. Hitchcock, as
editor of the Duluth Evening Herald,
would certainly be a 'howling sue
cess'-nit.

was revealed through Wall street
banking and brokerage firm where a
number of notes were seized after be-

inquiry progresses under the direc-
ton of William J. Flynn, chief of the
local division of the secret service, in
dications are that the work was done
by very clever gang of international
swindlers. The counterfeit notes are
said by experts to be the best that
have been worked off since some bo-
gus Swedish notes were scattered
over this country about six years ago.
One banking firm is said to have been
victimized to the extent of taking in
100000 francs of the counterfeit Bel
