The Republican county central committee
will meet in Minot on March 8, to name the date
of the caucuses throughout the county, and de
eide upon the appointment Of delegates to tn,
county convention, and the date Of that conven
ton. The purpose Of the county convention i
to elect delegates to the State convention an(
the method Of holding this convention is ident
ical with that of the old county convention Tn.
Attorney General holds that the Primary cleo
ton law has nothing to do with the methods b,
which the delegates are chosen. The voters il
their respective precincts. elect chairman ant
secretary from their own number and will the1
proceed to elect delegates to the convention
eithor by BALLOT or by reclamation. It is recon-
mended that the caucuses are held open from
one to five o'clock in the afternoon. Care SHOULD
be taken with the selection of delegates, for thi
is quite important. It seems to the Independ
ent that the delegates chosen should favor Taf
for President, and there is little danger but thai
the popular secretary secures North Dakots
easily. It seems to the Independent that Taft j.
the logical candidate At the county conven
ton, delegates will be elected to attend the state
convention to be held in this city, and besides
the above mentioned matter, the business OF
electing national committeeman will be taker
up. Mckenzie who has been committeeman fol
years, is not candidate for reelection Care
should be taken to select the best possible kind
of man in his stead.

BIRCH which is used almost exclusively
for this industry, reached the faetory
in the form Of bars from Is to 2 9.I6
inches square and from 2h to feet

sawed In small portable mills which ope
rate near some railroad line, about I-3
cords being required for 1000 feet OF
bars. After saving, the bars are piled
crisscross, in order to facilitate thor

lnJUNCTI0NS AND LABOR.
Massachusetts, May Modify Provisions
Of Existing Law.

Massachusetts May Modify Provisions
Of Existing Law.
Massachusetts,. which generally leads
the states Of the Union In progressive
and popular legislation, Is trying 70 at
ter It's injunction law 50 as to make
ITS application less frequent and OBJ
jectionable III labor disputes. says Jo-
seph II. Buchanan In the New York
4 Journal The 1907 Massachusetts leg
islatnre appointed d joint special re-
cess committee to which were referred
practically all Of the labor measures,
excepting the overtime" bill. which
were introduced during that session.
| Probably the most important sub
iects Of legislation considered By the
committee have been laws relating to
injunctions and to picketing by labor
organizations during strikes and lock-
outs The interests affected by these
two measures are so interviewer as TO
make 1t necessary for them to be Goa
sidered together.
From statements made by members
thereof It Is believed that the commit
tee Is Of the opinion that the present
laws covering injunctions and picket
ing which are very much the same In
Massachusetts as In other states
sometimes work an injustice to labor.
The law provides that mo person shalt
by intimidation or force prevent or
seek TO prevent q person from enter
ing into or continuing In the employ
ment OF any person Or corporation"
The trouble with such d law arises
when judge Is called upon for an in
depreciation Of what Is intimidation.
Some judges characterize as intimida
ton d personal appeal. even when 1t "a
made by a nnionist-striker or picket
Ito an acquaintance who Is working
or Is about to 20 to work upon
s'struck" job. And there are judges
who have said It was intimidation to
advise a person not 70 work during the
strike, although the advice may have
been solicited
InjunctIons embodying these strained
definitions of intimidation have In the
eyes OF the American workingman the
appearance or an effort TO deprive him
Of the right Of free speech. which he
has been taught IS guaranteed to him
by the constitution Of the United
States. And the recess committee Of
the Massachusetts, legislature seems to
be also of that belief
1t Is probable that the committee
will propose to the incoming iegisIa-
ture change iii the law that win
greatly tend 10 modify those uses Of
the injunction which have raised the
labor outcry against the process. 1t Is
believed that with one or two exceps
taons the members of the committee
are agreed upon recommendation
which will aniend the law SO as 70
provide that 1T shall not be unlawful
for any person to reason with. talk
with. argue with and BY arguments

pose Of inducing such other person 10
