WILL MEAT PRICES
GO UP AGAIN.

Many Fargo people do not care If
meat prices are UP or down, because
they have found that Minnesota
macaroni and spaghetti, with their
delicious nut-like flavor, take the
place OF meat very largely and are
more easily digested.
Good macaroni and spaghetti are
tour times as nutritious as beef-steak,
and they are the best and most nour-
fishing foods known. They can be
easily prepared in many appetizing
ways and are suitable for the daintiest
luncheon as we'll as the heartiest feast.
But if you want that rich. nut-like
flavor be sure and get the delicious
Minnesota" brand macaroni or spag-
hetti-made from the finest Northern
Durum wheat, with all the nourishing
Gluten left in. 1t is easily digested
and never gets soggy. All good Fargo
grocers sell it.

FORM BIG LOCAL
AT HENDRICKS, OHIO.

Just before the Tucker county con-
vention Of the Socialist party met, a.
B. shinn gave local Hendricks a short
talk on organization. AZ persons
made applications for membership at
the meeting. When the convention
went into permanent organization, the
first ballot was taken for each office
with no nominations. Every one was
asked to write the name of the person
they thought best qualified for each
office. Though no names were men
toned until-the ballots were read, no
candidates we're considered nominated
until a majority Of all votes cast was
secured. A second ballot was not
called for in the entire convention. A
full county ticket was nominated and
the expectations are that a number of
the Socialists will be elected.

have right to feel proud. Another
gratifying condition, at this time is
we are. getting the. naiaArs to;stand up
for their rights IN the courts, and by
persistent fighting we are winning

adopted a unique way of, advertising
the strike, by printing one thousand
placards which reads as follows:
"To all miners and other Workmen:
you are hereby notified to stay
away from Burnwell, Waucoma, Stan
dard, Mucklow, Mahan, Hickory camp

Creek n Kanawha county, West Va.
Also from Cole river and Fort Defiance,
as there is strike of the union miners
at each of these places. If you are
not a strike breaker, please stay
away"
These placards are being sent to
all trade assemblies in the different
cities and towns. The union miners
of district II, who are at work ARE
very anxious to declare for another
strike in order to win Paint Creek.

General Manager

One of the most deliberate attempts
to wipe unionism out of existence. in
the history of the Ohio Valley. is now
being made at the plant of the I'm
perial Glass company, at Bellaire. the
campaign. being under the yitriolic
management of Victor G. Wicke, the
general manager. -
Manager Wicke has started this
war upon the underpaid and overwork-
ed employees of the packing depart
ment, and has demanded of them that
they sign a pledge that they will not
beong to a union while in the employ
of the concern. The men have resent
ed this attack upon their manhood and
are standing firm for their rights as
Americans, and as result, lockout
is on in the packing room of the I'm
perial. (
Wicke began his undetermined cam
paign two months ago. The union
men learned that he was planning 10
disrupt the union in order that he
could reduce the already low wages
prevailing lin the packing department.
He first tried the method of, inducing
leaders of the union to sacrifice the
organization and their fellow workers
for their own advancement. He offer
ed good positions to the few whom he
considered the real leaders of the men,

That he planned it carefully in ad.

this when he felt that he had enough
strike breakers to take the places of

Will Decide On

This course of leaving it up to the
affiliated locals was decided on at the
Trades Assembly meeting last Sunday
afternoon. The matter Of Labor Day
paradew as taken-up and some of the
delegates were in favor Of going into
the proposition fro mthej ump, conf
dent that the parade would be q sue
cess and that practically all CT tue
locals would come into line. Others,
however. contended that the Assem-
bly, should not take this action, and
that it should be left to the locals
themselves.
1t was brought out that the practice
of simply ordering Labor Day par
ade, and then having only a proper
ton of the local unions in line, gave
the community an entirely false idea
of the strength of organized labor in
the Wheeling district, and that no
parade at all was far better than
partial turnout.
So the secretary will write to AL
affiliated locals and get their IDEAS on
the matter.
