The labor world. [volume] (Duluth, Minn.) 1896-current, 1912-01-06
GATHERED AT RANDOM.


The report that E. A. Clancy, San
Francisco union man had confessed to
being implicated in the Los Angeles
dynamiting plot is branded as being
untrue. The Labor World is as anx-
1ous to get at the bottom Of it all and
show up the facts. If union men were
implicated In the outrage, the sooner
the guilty ones are shown up the more
we will be pleased:
After preaching a sermon on If
Christ lived Today Would He Be
Socialist" Rev. r. e. L.. Kirkland,
pastor of the First Congregational
church of Tampa, Fla, was attacked
by the women Of the church and so
badly beaten up that he now occupies
little white bed in a ward in a hos
pltal. The Rev. r. E. l.. K. was also
uncomplimentary to a former minist-
er of the church and this is also said
to have peeVed faction of the church
women. We wonder how much the
damage suit will ask.
Frank Burdick, a son of Harmon
Burdick, president of the Wisconsin
Garments union, reported at his work
at the car shops in: Milwaukee after
being ill with typhoid fever for some
days, and was told by Superintendent
White that he was needed no long
er. Burd1ck wanted to know why.
In answer to a question he admitted
that he lived with his father That's
it, said White, you don't know enough
to get married. We like to give en-
ployment to married men, with fami-
lies to support" -:
News comes from San Francisco
! that Chief White of the police force
| will advocate a police court to be used
exclusively for women The women
| OF Frisco are said to be getting
naughtier and naughtier and could
use a court where they could be ar
| raigned by themselves. If the new
departure is established we can look
for some fierce competition in the
matter of who draws the heaviest
head lines
Miss Lucille Bruneau of Kenosha,
Wis, claims that she has found an
honest burglar" She was awakened
the other night by man who was
about to depart via the window route
with great part of the family silver.
He promised to go without the silver
| If she would not raise an alarm, and
| both sides Of the agreement were
carried out to the letter.
At Ulysses, Kan, the young men
are in need Of wives Any single Young
! woman Of good reputation is eligible
! to draw a well-to-do Kansas farmer.
| The men have formed a club and are
advertising for girls. Young women
are said to be as scarce at Ulysses as
fur coats on the Sahara desert The
men, 1t is claimed are serious in their
| purpose.
! You can't go to Washington any
more and come away with a picture
of yourself shaking hands with Presi-
dent Taft. A clever photographer who
did the fake on postcards has been
ordered to discontinue his works of
art along that line.s1'It is really. too
bad because the president hasn't time
to shake hands with all of US and we
all had an ambition to visit Washing

Rev. Milne, Rev. Wurtele and Rev.
Reed, bid farewell to their Duluth
congregations at the morning services
last Sunday. Rev. Milne will rest.
Rev. Reed goes to Milwaukee and
Rev. Wurtele goes to Rochester, MINI.
What is Duluth's loss is another's
gain, and the rule not the excep-
ton, applies here.
| We were sorry to hear that r. w.
Hitchcock, editor Of the Hibbing Trib-
une, lost his home by fire early in
the week. We sympathize with a
newspaper man who loses ANYTHING
Tor when an editor has something it
usually means years of sacrifice and
hard work.
May Harris, alias Gladys Ford. is
said to have induced two young Du-
! luth girls to lead immoral lives. She
is now at the county Jail awaiting the
action of the January grand jury. II
she Is guilty of the charge she should
get all the law allows and a. little
! more.

country" he says, I'VE can't go or
having all night snake dances and be
