Trades Council Notes.

At regular meeting of the Ard
more Central Trades Council, held al
Labor Hall, Tuesday evening, Februa
ry 81, at which delegates from the
carpenters and joiners, electricians
clerks, pressmen, BARRIERS and typo
graphical unions were present, the
following resolution was submitted
and unanimously adopted:
Whereas, IN the report of the first
assistant postmaster general for the
year ending June. 1910, he has the
following to say in reference to clos
ing the postoffices on Sunday, and
giving the clerks and carriers a day
of rest: There is a very strong sen
timent throughout the country in ia
vor Of the discontinuance of the mail
on Sundays, and the sentiment should
be respected. Postal employees are
entitled to one day of rest in seven.
All respectable commercial and in
dustrial establishments close on Sun
day. Calling at the postoffice on
Sunday for mail is usually matter
of habit rather than of necessity. y
Therefore be it
Resolved, by Ardmore Central
Trades Council in session assembled,
hereby declare that it is the desire
of every union labor man or woman
in the city of Ardmore that the post
office clerks and carriers be not re-
Quired to work more than six days in
the week and further
Resolved, that we. the representa-
tives of the different labor unions of
Ardmore. respectfully urge Postmas-
ter Douglas to close the office on the
Sabbath day and let the clerks and
carriers rest
Resolved, that all labor unions con-
slider six days a weeks work, and
eight hours a days work, and that it
is directly in opposition to union
principles that any class of workmen
be compelled to labor seven days.
Resolved, that copy of these reso-
lutions be furnished Postmaster S. A.
Douglas and the city papers.

ELECTION
WILL Be GREAT
REPUBLICANS DECLINE TO PUT
TICKET IN FlElD.-MANY WILL
CALL FOR DEM BALLOTS.

The republican will be a free lance
in the coming city election. No party
ticket will be in the field as was de-
cided Friday night at the mass meet
ing called for the purpose Of deter
mining whether a ticket would be
placed in the field or not. The remark
made by one of the attendants at the
meeting that now we can have some
say in the selection of city officers"
indicates that the republicans realize
their hopeless minority and also in
dicates that they will go into the pri-
mary to be held March q to help the
democrats nominate the best man for
the office OF mayor and for commits
sioners. Under the Oklahoma prima-
ry law a voter can call for any ticket
he desires to vote and every rspubli-
can in the city can vote the demo-
| cratic ticket in the general primary
election or vice versa the democrats
! NOHlu NOlt lut utDOCldllN llthtls ~
Is generally conceded that all the re-
publicans who are at all interested in
municipal policies will enter the pri-
mary and should that be the case the
vote on March 81 will be much great
er than the vote on April 4. In other
words when the nomination is held
| the interest ceases.

Former Norwegian Consul Gade in
Chicago has moved to Christiania,
bringing his American wife and fam.
lily with him. He has had great row
with the foreign department, whose
head. the minister of foreign affairs,
MIR. Irgens, had promised Mr.. Gade
chance of working in the foreign
office, presumably with view of Sc.
curing later on position as secre-
tary of one of the Norwegian lega-
tions abroad. However, 1t seems that
the minister has broken faith with
Mr.. Gade in failing to appoint him.
As an excuse he insists that Mr.. Gade
must first spend two years in Norway
SO as to regain his Norwegian citizen
ship, but as it is known that this can
be arranged for in a couple of days
by royal decree the entire affair ap-
pears mysterious, to say the least. Mr..
Gade, who is independently rich, cares

the country in ten years increased in
population at the same rate as the
average European nation. The rural

progress, barely holding its own the
past ten years, while Christiania
gained 10000. Trondhjem and Sta
vanger gained about 20 per cent.
