BARRIERS GET WALLOPED.

Transient customers entering any of
the barber shops in the city last Satur-
day must have noticed the air of deep
gloom that prevaded the establish
ment and must have wondered, the
barber generally being one of the
cheeriest and most voluble of crea-
ture. Had they been out at Robbins
Park Decoration Day morning they
would have understood. Yes, the bar
bers got trimmed by the courthouse
employees in a game of near baseball
and the joshes and jibes they have re-
ceived since have not calculated to
improve their spirits any. After the
loud paens of victory (before the bat
tle) it went rather hard to be licked
by a bunch of baseball upstairs that
were not supposed to know enough
baseball to cover a postage stamp. The
game was a delight to the fans who
saw enough weird plays to keep them
talking for a month. For instance,
Phil Warnock went all the way around
on three strikes and has been telling
everybody since how he knocked out
a home run" Five innings were
enough to tire everybody out and the
courthouse won five to three. That
was the score, honest. 1t isn't Tom
Alliman's fault that the BARRIERS didn't
win. He was umpiring and he did the
best he could, but the support was
poor. George CASTOR umpired for the
pen pushers and had better support.
There is this consolation, however
The BARRIERS have found the weak
spots in the team-nine in number
and promise to flay the courthouse
good and plenty next time. The court
house crowd say they can beat the
BARRIERS again with only seven players
and an umpire-next time they meet
so there you are. Anyhow, it was
some game.

LABOR LAWS
NOT A JOKE
E. w. OLSON, A REAL COMMITS
SI0NER-ON TOUR OF THE
STATE TO LEARN THE CON-
DITION OF LABOR.

E. W. Olson, state labor commits
sioner, was in town few hours Tues
day and paid pleasant call at the
Labor Journal office. Mr.. Olson is
a member of the Typographical Union
of Walla Walla After eight years of
Hubbard it is a distinct relief to find
a man in the labor commissioners Of
flee who has real idea of the duties
of his position and realizes that it
was created to help the laboring peo-
pie of the state. Mr.. Olson is not a
fire eater who imagines that he must
be continually tying into the employer
in order to make himself solid with
the laboring classes. He realizes that
there are fair-minded employers in
business in this state. He is deter
mined, however, that those employers
who attempt to evade the labor laws
of the state must be taught that they
were no intended as joke, but must
be enforced.
Mr.. Olson's office conducted a prose-
cutlon last week against the proprietor
of the st. German Bakery in Seattle
for violation of the women's eight
hour law. The trial was held in JUS
tice court and resulted in a conviction
with the maximum fine of $4,000. The
case will probably be appealed to the
higher court
Mr.. Olson impresses us as a man
anxious to serve the laboring people
of the state to the full extent of the
powers of his office and in his work
will have the full cooperation of or
ganized labor He is on a tour of the
northwestern part of the state, visit

the minimum scale of wages. Nor
