days of its growth, or at the rate
of 3 inches of water per month. This
is in addition to evaporation from the
soil, which, even with the retarding
influence of the dust mulch, will
amount to several inches each month
In midsummer. In case the land is
plowed only or inches deep,
though thoroughly pulverized, it will
store an amount of moisture entire
ly insufficient to supply crop require
ment in any practical drought. These
shallow and generally poorly pre-
pared seed beds are the principal
cause of the low corn yields in the
South, and they affect the cotton
yields similarly but not so much, be-
cause cotton is more drough-resist-
emit plant than corn. If planting is
done at all, it is folly to prepare
seed bed so shallow as to bring
about the almost total loss of the
crop some years and reduced crop
every year.

Gray Honest With People,
But Eberhart Is Dodger
DECLARES RANGE PAPER

In review Of the political situation
In this state the Mesaba Ore in it's
last issue has the following, much
of which bears the hallmark of truth:
Republican Candidate Eberhart re-
fuses to take a stand on some Of the
things that the people Of the state
have right to know about, yet his
party managers are asking you to &C.
cept him just as he is and not only
that. but to vote for the Republican
ticket from top to bottom-just be-
cause it is the Republican ticket.
That used to be the caper, but it
don't go now.
Democratic Candidate Gray is more
outspoken--to be sure he Jumped
over the party platform fence, but
he is in the right. Mr.. Gray's can
didacy is the result of what Boss Day
thinks was a shreWd political move,
and perhaps it was, but there are a
lot of people of Minnesota who will
object to having a candidate damned
down their Threats just because it will
be gratifying to a political boss who
is looking to his own interests only.
And even with all that against him,
there is perhaps little more than a
probability that Mr.. Gray will be
elected.
There is one thing in Mr.. Gray's
favor and it is that he does not hest
tate to state, emphatically, where he

GOMPERS POINTS OUT
THE DUTY OF WORKERS

On the eve of election President
Samuel Gompers has delivered the
following statement of the issues
before the working men of the
country. Mr.. Gompers proclama-
ton is in effect call to arms and
can be construed as nothing but
an appeal to the workers of tho
country, organized or morgan
lied, to cast off from their should
ers the burdens of low wage and
high living cost imposed upon
them by the dominant party
through it's catering to the desires
and urgings of the trusts.
As Mr.. Gompers s2ys, there
never was a time wneE It bshoov-
ed the workers of the country, the
real producers of all we use, eat
or wear, to unite in a general re-
sistance to all that signifies organ
lied greed. BY marking their bal
lots against everything that stands
for Cannonism or Aldrichism in
no matter how slight a degree, the
country's middle classes can rid
themselves Of the bloodsucking
embrace Of the arrogant rich,

that "our" ticket be voted straight,

Senatorial Candidate Boyle says IL

P0TsHoTs INTO THE
POLITICAL FLOCK

Speaking of the speech Of James
Gray, made recently in, Hibbing the
Mesaba Ore says:
Mr.. Gray, Jim as his friends call
him. closed the meeting with mas
terful address. He is not a ranting
talker, and controls his arms as we'll
as his voice, and makes a speech Of
something else besides meaningless
platitudes. 49,.
Mr.. Gray convinced his audience Of
his honesty and sincerity, and made
a deep impression. He discussed ma
tional issues briefly and then talked
of state affairs generally, without
ringing in washington" Jefferson"
Roosevelt or any other of the
great men as a bait for laundering
applause. His talk was of the heart
to-heart nature and he didn't abuse
any of the candidates on the other
side. Mr.. Gray told the people just
what he and his party is standing
for in this election, and he did not
hesitate to come out into the open
on all matters in which the. electors
are interested.
Mr.. Gray stated that he is firm in
the belief that the things his party
stand for in this election will be good
for the people of the state, and he
mentioned reapportionment, good
roads, local government, the initiative,
referendum and recall, extension of
the primary election to state officers,
the election of United States senators
by popular vote, and divorce OF
state affairs from corporate influence.
The address, as a whole, was one of
the good things that falls to Hib-
bings lot occasionally, and it will
make votes for Mr.. Gray, even if not
for all Of his party's candidates.
A vote for jacques for congress
means a vote for the ultimate triumph
of the common people over the priv
legged classes.
Mr.. Jaques has conducted clean
forceful campaign, devoid of lurid
promises to do better" He has not
bewildered the voters of his district

A Parallel

Judson Harmon, Democratic
candidate for governor Of Ohio,
and Adolph Eberhart, Republican
candidate for governor Of Mime
sofa, have both a hard row OF
stumps to grub out Of their
respective political potato patches.
They have both been put on the
defensive by the organized labor
voters of their respective con-
stituencies.
When the switchmen Of the
northwest struck last spring
against the unfair conditions i'm
posed on them by their taskmas-
tiers, James J. Hill and his fellow
bandits of commerce, Governor
Eberhart sat silent when the COM
mercial interests and the labor
unions of the state pleaded that
he by one word call the attention
of the railroads to the demoraliza-
ton of traffic-that he as COVER
nor demand fair deal from the
roads, both for the shippers and
for the employees.
For this he is now receiving
well-merited condemnation at the
hands Of the working classes Of
the state-a condemnation that
will extend itself to the ballot box
next Tuesday.
Governor Harmon in Ohio q
few weeks ago refused to compel
the Columbus Railway and Light
company, like the railroads Of the
northwest public service corpo-
ration, to furnish the people of
the state capital proper means of
transportation and to man it's cars
with honest workmen in place of
the ex-convicts and bowery thugs
imported to break the strike. He
committed political suicide by his
cne-sided stand.
On choice Of governor as far
as these two are concerned
politics cuts no ice. The working
man need not ask els he Republi-
can or Democratic It is suffici-
ent to know that both are enemies
of the working class and as such
have merited the knife of the
working man at the polls.
A vote for Eberhart as for Har-
mon means vote for the union
hating corporations Of the state
1t means putting your neck
further into the moose.

APPRECIATION DESERVED.
IS BEST THANKS FOR ALI

The Duluth correspondent of
the Typographical Journal, the
official magazine Of the I. T. u,
did himself proud in the October
issue Of that periodical and incl
lenta]!y handed out wreath Of
laurels to the Labor World which
will go a long way towards
smoothing the path to renewed
and better efforts along the line
of union propaganda.
Such tributes as this make the
labor papers assured that much
Of the work incident to improv-
ing conditions among the trades
unions is appreciated. Thank
you! We will do our derndest in
the future to deserve all the nice
things said.
Here is the bouquet:
Our ardent supporter, the Labor
World, published in this city
the writer believes, deserves more
support from the laboring men than
has been given it in the past Where
IN all the state Of Minnesota can any
| other organ be found which will and
can better espouse the cause of union
labor than the Labor World? No.
1876 has almost one hundred mem
bers; do they ali subscribe for the
Labor World? It is to be hoped they
60. 1t is pleasure, indeed, to see
the advertising patronage shown this
worthy organ of the laboring men,
but yet that patronage is not one
third what it deserves. The signed
correspondent of No. 1876 will will
ingly be one to start a crusade among
union men and their friends for the
upbuilding of this paper which
would, no doubt, in the end be the
means of making the Labor World
one of the healthiest papers in the
state of Minnesota. Union men are
many thousands strong in this Sec
ton of the state, and there can not
man or woman favorable to the
cause of organized labor should not
contribute to the support of this
paper to the extent of one years
subscription, at least To the men,
bers of No. 1876 this item appeals
especially, and through us let a
rousing campaign be started The
reading of the editorials and gen.
eral news items Of this paper con-
tinually will surely lead unbelievers
to see that union labor is good and
healthy means to a happy end. Let
something be done. Don't forget it,
boys.
Labor day was celebrated by the
different unions of Duluth. It was
celebrated as it was never celebrated
before. Bigger crowds than ever be-
fore, and more than that BILLY" Nc
Even, labor commissioner, and the
friend of the laboring man, from the
state capital at st. Paul, was with us
and left us few McEwenisms which
will no doubt linger in our brains for
some time to come. The parade was
the first big feature Of the day, and
1t was wonder to be remembered.
The fair and faithful laboring man
sure enough did show his colors in all
their brightest hues. Did the print
ers parade? Well, 1 guess they did.
Not very great in numbers, but they
turned out strong enough to let them
selves be known and were certainly
fine example Of the prosperous
union man of uiuth. We have a
splendid union, and their works are
becoming so well known through
their Labor day doings that we now
feel that it is only a quetsion of a.
short time until there will not be an
unfair shop in all the Zenith City.

The percental of fat in milk from

COW the milk was found to range
from 445 per cent. to 5.S3 per cent,

Let the calf stay with the COW a
few hours only, then milk the COW in
few hours after removing the calf
and put the bucket of warm milk to
the calf's nose so as to touch it. and
in a minute or two it will drink. and
tho work is done. The calf will thus
have learned to drink like other ami
mails. and all trouble of feeding milk
to it will be over. The mistake usual
ly made is in allowing the young calf
to run with the COW several days. and
having learned to suck. it is hard to
teach it any other way-Epitomist.

1T was very funny to see the scorn
with which some of them regarded

beginners when they saw that the

own.

sidered?

HUGE PEACE SHAFT.
To Cost S5.OOO.O 900 and Stand on
HudsOn's Bank.

F. Wellington Ruekstuhl. the New
York sculptor, who was chief of
sculpture at the Worlds Fair at ST.
Louis, mas announced the starting of
movement TO erect a great national
peace monument on the Hudson at a
cost of about 100000. 1t will not
only be larger than the Eiffel Tower,
in Paris, but will be the largest mon
ument in the world, about 1900 feet
high.
The design has just been finished,
and is herewith reproduced. At the
National Arts Club Mr.. Ruckstuhl
disclosed his plans. He said that
competent engineers had passed fav-
orably upon the feasibility of the
plan. and that it was believed in real
estate circles that the syndicate
formed would have no difficulty in
getting the 100000 required with
in reasonable time.
The project" said Mr. Ruckstuhl,
'is to choose a plateau on the Hudson
between here and Ossining and build
a platform about $50 feet square
From this platform, which at its cor
ners will be ornamented with four
groups of sculpture, will rise cube
about 125 feet high of two stories.
The first story will be the FOYER or
