EIGHT HOURS FOR MINERS
New Schedule Put in Force in Crystal Falls
Mines Today

Mines TODAY
As we 20 70 press we learn that the
miners al the local mines have been
notified that they will work bat eight
houis in the future, 1t Is Improbable
that the miners in this section shodld
be granted that favor and miners else
where made to work ten hours 50 it is
likely that the schedule will prevail
throughout the entire Lake Superior
district at once
AS we get the news the miners will
be expected to be in their places under
ground at eight o'clock an hour for
dinner, and they leave work at 300
O'Clock This schedule puts miner
on the same footing as surface men,
the latter not having TO arrive at the
mine until seven O'Clock whereas a
miner must change both morning aud
night.
The granting Of this schedule with
ont the asking is but another sample of
the progressiveness Of our mining com
pabies

TO THE RETAIL LIQUOR DEALERS AND
BREWERY AGENTS Of IRON COUNTY

1t has been reported to me that the
Retail Liquor Dealers are selling their
goods at Wholesale throughout the
community, and that Brewery Agents
are selling at Wholesale and Retail to
others than Retail Liquor Dealers.
This is not only contrary to law but
breeds trouble and crime at the differ
ent locations; the police protection in
outlying districts not being as efficient
as in the towns and cities.
Hereafter close watch will be
kept for violations of this kind, and
the violators, when apprehended, will
be vigorously prosecuted.
By order of
M. S. McDONOUGH,
Prosecutor.
