LABOR NOTES OF
VIDE INTEREST

l take this opportunity to appeal to
all union working men and women on
behalf of the striking wood workers of
| Burlington, Vt. Having been on the
scene of the trouble and having informa-
ton at first hand, ] am in a position to
explain to the workers of this city the
needs and desires of these strikers.
These men work sixty hours per week
on an average scale OF from So TO IS per
week. The cost of living is just as high
as it is in Barre, so as sane thinking
people there is only one result to these
conditions of life, which is, that ii it
takes all that the wage Garner receives
in this city for the sustenanee OF life,
and the wage average is just about dou-
bic what it is in Burlington, we have to
admit that the wood workers of the
Queen city subsist on just half what
it takes to provide for the workers of
Barre. have been in the homes of these
workers and have no hesitation whatever
in issuing the statement that living
and working conditions in Burlington out
rival Lawrence, Mass, or any other hum
ger zone in the country. In Burlington,
boys from fourteen to sixteen years of
age are employed on fast running ma
ehinery, contrary to the Vermont child
labor law. And l have it from men
there that the city fathers have con-
doned this condition of affairs, well
knowing that our statute laws were be-
ing ignored and smiled at as not worthy
of the paper they were written on.
Whatever is the outcome of this hunger
strike in Burlington, there is some sat
isfaction in the knowledge that the chill
dren will not take the place of their fa-
theirs in the mills of Burlington, VT,
from now on. The Vermont state branch
of the American Federation of Labor
has laid the matter before the governor
OF the state, and they are now in posi-
tion to state that conditions in the mills
and stores relating to child labor are to
be investigated by state officials, and the
law put into operation wherever laxity
occurs.

returned to the city, alleging illness

promptly indicted on charge of
swinging the city's millions to benefit
his own ends, which constitutes the
act of bribery in the eyes of the law.

Home Talent Plays.

Bemidji is off the Travelled route
Tor first class theatrical attractions
so that a home talent play arouses

be used for the High school play
s:For Old Eli The play is good
one, the players have worked hard to
become proficient in their parts and
there is every reason for giving the
play a big first night and bigger
second. The students are being as
sisted by several members of the fac
ulty and the play is by far the most
pretentious effort along that line
seen in Bemidji for some time. 1t is

tertainment for the evening.

PENSIONS FOR PRESIDENTS.

NV York, Nov. %. - Future ex-
presidents of the United States are to
be pensioned in the sum of $25, 900
each annually by the action of the
Carnegie corporation of New York.
The grant is provided for with the
idea of enabling the former execu-
tives of the nation to devote their
unique knowledge gained in public
affairs to the public good, free from
pecuniary care.
A similar amount will be paid wild
ows of ex-presidents as long as they
remain unmarried.
The payment is to be continued as
long as the recipients remain unpro
vided for by the government
The announcement followed the
second annual meeting of the corpor-
alton held at the residence of An
drew Carnegie and attended by eight
trustees. Oother matters were dis
cussed, but this was the most impor-
tant of the meeting.

Need for Prompt Action.

Word has come to Bemidji that the
Thief River Falls Commercial club is
becoming active in having the Min
nesota, Dakota and Western railway
build an extension from Loman
through the Northern part of Bel
trami county to Thief River Falls.
Such a line would tap district
which is fast becoming one of the
garden spots of the state and would
take all of that business to Thief
River Falls.
Thief River Falls has always been
closer to the Northwest part of this
county than has Bemidji. The ex-
tensive ditching operations in that
section have been carried on from
Thief River and the trade which has
come from the new territory has nat
urally followed the routes already
laid out. AS a consequence many of
the settlers in that part of the coun-
ty are hauling goods from Thief
River Falls for a distance of twenty
live to seventy-fve miles. If a har-
Dor is built at Red Lake, Bemidii
will be able to get a good share of
this trade, but railroad would re-
duce the effectiveness of the harbor.
With Thief River taking it's pres
ent stand, the Bemidji Commercial
club should take steps to get that
road down the east side of the lakes
through the Saum and Shotley coun-
try If it is to be built at all. Rail-
roads are not built over night and it
is probable that this line will not
be built for some time, but Bemidii
should forestall any such possible. ac-
ton by being on the ground earlv.
The country to the east of the lakes
is fertile and we'll settled. That to
the north is the great Beltrami prai-
RE which is destined to become one
of the richest farm districts in the
state. That trade must come here.
