Its Thfrty-ninth Anniversary.

The members of the Minneapolis
Typographical union on Tuesday
evening celebrated the 39th annivers-
airy of the founding Of that organiza-
ton. The occasion brought together a
number of the best known printers
in Minnesota.
Thirty-nine years may be a long
time in the life of the individual, but
short period in the history Of an in
stitution.
The union has passed successfully
through scores Of tribulations. It's ex-
istence has many times been threat
ened. but it has survived every dif-
ficulty and today it stands a monu-
ment to the cause OF organized labor
In the Flour city, where it's benefi-
cent influence is felt by every man
and woman who works.

Back to the Pines for Atkinson.

Claude M. Atkinson, "the old man
hereof" Of the Mesaba Ore at Hib-
bing, has reversed the usual order Of
things. 1t would be unusual for the
"old man hereof to be usual.
Instead of settling down and taking
It easy like most daddies do, he has
turned the Ore over to his brilliant
young son, Marc, and has hied him
self to the backwods at Northome.
where he has purchased the Record,
and where he will apply his mex
haustible energy to again build up a
newspaper, Just like he would do it
in his early life.
Marc, the young man hereof" of
the Mesaba Ore, presented his initial
number last week. In his editorial an
nouncement he makes some apologies
to his readers for the appearance of
the Ore. but promises to do better
next week.
The Labor World appreciates the
modesty Of the young editor, but
apologies were unnecessary, for his
first effort looked good to us, and
we predicta bright future in the field
OF journalism for the young man.
We shall, however. miss from our
table the mighty editorials of the "old
man hereof" They were inspirations
to us, and we often wondered to our.
selves how he got away with them up
there where but few years ago it
was Les Majestic to even hint at the
queer manipulations of Big Business.
Progressive thought on the Mesaba
range has lost a giant in Claude At
kinson.

La Toilette On Watered Stock.

Senator La Toilette, In his Chicago
speech, said he was not afraid of tn.
biggest trust on earth. 'They cannot
continue to strap upon the people,"
he said, 1.-The burdens of this over
capitalization which is the cause Of
the high cost of living. Over capitali-
cation has gone on to the extent that
all the big business of the country is
ON stills. We have got to bring it
down.
But it cannot be done in a mo-
ment. It will be worked out scientific
ally, if I have anything to do with it,
and l expect to have a good deal to
do with it,
This is the spirit and language of a
great constructive reform statesman.
The real reason why Big Business
does not want Senator La Toilette is
that he seems to be the one great man
in public life who gets to the bottom
of things, and he proposes remedies
that will destroy privilege, protect
honest business and relieve the peo-
pie of the extortion from which they
now suffer. "

The state Of Minnesota received from the rail-
road companies gross earnings taxes the neat
sum OF $3933, in 1911 Of this amount two of
the railroads in northeastern Minnesota paid Just
Soz9,6o|.'0. or nearly one-fourth of the whole
amount These railroads run almost entirely
through st. Louis county, touching the western por-
ton of Lake and the eastern portion of Itasca
counties Who says this portion of Minnesota is
escaping it's just share of taxation? Would it not
be the proper thing to give back to northeastern
Minnesota the amount of money it expends from the
local public funds each year to give proper protec-
ton to life and PROPERTY for these railroads. rather
than have the people, who are now overtaxed. as.
sumo the whole burden of cost?

Veracity of Detective Burns.

Detective Burns made another
charge against Mr.. Gompers last week
and like his previous claims it has
proven to be untrue. Burns charged
that Mr.. Gompers was part owner in
printing plant at Indianapolis which
does most of the work for the inter-
national trade unions located there.
Former Mayor Bookwaiter, now a
member of this printing firm, denies
that Mr.. Gompers at any time had
been concerned therein.
Hugo Thorsch, partner Of Book
water, and long time friend of Mr..
Gompers through his early affilia-
tions with the trade union movement,
declared he would give Detective
Burns free access to the books and
records Of the company.
II never have had business relations
with Samuel Gompers." said Thorsch.
Il have never even been successful in
getting a printing contract from him.. y
Detectie Burns reputation for YER
acity has been badly shaken since he
permitted his vengeance against Mr..
Gompers to get away with him.
WiscOnsin's Income Tax Valid.
The supreme court of Wisconsin
has of late been doing some good
work for the people of this genera
ton. A short time ago it sustained
the industrial insurance act passed by
the legislature last winter. 1t cleared
up some points Of law over which
lawyers had been quarreling for some
time and which involved questions of
deprivation of property without due
process Of law. liberty OF contract and
things like that. ##H... .'.%
Now this same court has again
backed up the Wisconsin legislature.
and the income tax recently adopted
there has been declared constitution
al. The language of the court is most
as refreshing as its decision. It de-
clares the personal property tax to be
a failure. 1t supports the idea Of a
tax on land value, and graduated
tax based on income In addition there

should Workinxnen. Eat Rice.

F. n. Barrett, we'll known food
expert. and editor Of the American
Grocer, delivered an address before
the New York Central Labor union
on Monday. in which he declared that
tho American workmen need not feel
alarmed over the high prices and
seeming short supply OF potatoes 'All
they have to do it to eat rice he
said. The supply Of rice IL equal to
all demands, Is much cheaper and
at the same time more nutritious
than potatoes. w..
"one pound Of rice costs 10 cents
at retail. 1t contains as much nour-
lshment as several pecks Of potatoes.
American grown rice from South
Carolina, Louisiana and Texas is the
best In the world and the supply is
immense"
The Chinese. the cheapest labor
ers on earth. learned to eat rice more
than thousand years ago. But they
raise rice In China. In America we
grow more potatoes than rice. and
the only reason why potatoes are 50
nigh in this country is that the land
which can produce potatoes remains
to be raising potatoes are roaming the
country in search Of work.
Rtcheson and the McNannaras.
The confession Of the Mcnamara
brothers startled the country. The
crimes they admitted committing
were OF such characted as to arouse
the resentment of every law abiding
citizen.
Enemies of labor took ADVANTAGE
OF the admissions of the McNamaras
to fasten upon labor and labor's insti-
tutlons the responsibility of their
crimes, and even now the theory Of
the officers of the government seems
to be that labor leaders generally
We're implicated in the work of dyna-
hitting throughout the country.
The other day Richeson the preach
er, confessed to murder. Has anyone
been so unkind to attempt to involve
the church and other preachers in
such crimes? No, it is too late now.
But there was time when this would
have been done.

DEFENDS TRUST COMPANY
President Denies Charges Made
by Marcus Braun.

Marcus Braun's petition to Attorney
General Carmody TO have the charter or
the Transatlantic Trust Company re-
voked, on the ground that the company's
object was In violation OF public policy,
met with rough usage at ttS hands or
Charles T. Mathewson, counsel for the
defence at the first public hearing before
Mr.. McQuaid, Deputy Attorney General,
yesterday
After repeated attempts on the part OF
Elias b. Goodman, representing Mr..
Braun, to show that the company was In
some way subsidized by the Hungarian
government and that one of its objects
was TO influence Hungarians TO return 20
their homeland after accommodating fort
une here. the lawyer for the plaintiff de-
clared that II Julius Printer, the presi-
dent, could show that his institution was
in no way connected with the Hungarian
government, Mr.. Braun would withdraw
his petition.
Thus encouraged Mr. Printer stated
that his company was an American In
stitution, Incorporated under the laws Of
the State OF New York, and doing gen.
eral banking and trust company busi-
ness with the sole object OF making
morey. He declared that It had not, and
that he feared II never would have, d
subsidy either from the Hungarian gov
crnment or from any other source, adding
that he couldn't conceive what Mr..
Brauns object was in bringing the action
unless it came from undiluted patriotism.
Thereupon Mr.. Goodman became lnd!g-
nant. and read into the record recon-
mendation written by Mr.. Braun six years
ago. when he was Special Commissioner
Of immigration under President Roose-
welt. In which he suggested that all COM
panies doing an immigrant business should
be required to give bond for the per-
Torrance Of their duties TO the state.
That was his opinion to-day. he ex-
planned.
Mr.. Mathewson offered In evidence
statements from three members Of Hun
garlan banking houses, quoted In Mr..
Braun's petition as having said that the
Transatlantic Trust Company was organ
ICED as an American agent OF the Hun
garian government, denying the remarks
attributed to them in the petition.
The next hearing was set for Monday.
