THE LITTLE JOKER.
Know Among the Trades Unionists of the
Land as the Union Label-By
Lewis koretin.

The courts, .'the bulwarks of
our liberties,n have issued some
"Don'ts" for our benefit. They
are:
DON'T boycott Bucks stoves.
Don't boycott Butterick patterns.
Don't boycott any scab product.
The courts, not being very lady
like, have sentenced the officials
of the American Federation of
Labor and of Typographical Union
No. + to Jail for telling the truth
| about Bucks stoves and Butterick
patterns.
OF course. the courts are right.
1t would be blasphemy to breath
otherwise. Or, rather, in the
language of the courts and in the
judgement of the courts it would
be contempt Of court to call the
! courts ''bunch Of blocks.''
Anyway, Mr.. Union Man and
Mr.. Sympathizer, you are denied
a copy of the :'untair list" You
cannot be told not to patronize
certain unfair products.
But you do not want to give aid
and comfort to the enemy. You
do want to help the workers who
have manhood enough to organize
to help themselves.

WAHPET0N'S CITY
MAIL DELIVERY
Congressman Hanna Secures Sell
vice for Several North Da-
kota Towns. Wahpeton
Among the List.

Washington, July 28.- Dick
inson and Williston. N. D., are
to have city mail delivery, and
Wahpeton will be given an op-
portunity to decide whether or
not they want similar service
as a result of the ACTIVITY OF
Congressman Hanna.
Dickinson wants a sub, sta
tion, to give adequate mail SER
vice to the south end of the
city, but the department ruled
against this. In looking the
matter up, Congressman Han.
na found Dickinson and Willis
ton to be safely within the limit
demanded for city delivery, and
service will be installed in those
cities within a short time time.
Lisbon and Wahpeton are
within the limit but by so mar
row margin that they would
lose the city delivery in case of
a small decline in the annual
receipts. They will be given
an opportunity to decide whe-
ther it shall be established.
