St. Peter Free Press Why don't
these men reported to be without en-
pioyment in the large cities and so
willing to work, strike out for them
selves and move to places where they
are sure of getting employment at re-
munerative wages? In most cases a
man worth his salt can find employ
ment if he is willing to work. But the
trouble with most of them is, they want
a particular kind of work at q particu-
lar place and if they are not accommo-
dated they prefer to loaf at public
expense.
Mortified News: Really what makes
St. Paul jobbers sore at the eastman
law is that it takes awav existing dis.
ordinations in their favor. They have
SO long enjoyed special privileges that
they contemplate doing business with
out them with dismay. TO have traffic
follow the natural channels of trade is
really what they fear. Possibly they
have some reason to. If that proves
to be the case they are not likely to
have much sympathy if dealers other.
where's get the rights of which they
have long been deprived.
Winnebago City Enterprise: Harold
Gustaveson, the fourteen year old boy
reported in our last issue as missing
from his home in this city since the
10th of October, has been located at
Austin, where he has been working in
a restaurant ever since he lett here.
H arold told the restaurant man that
both his parents were dead. The res
taurant proprietor has been using the
lad nicely, furnishing him with CLOTH
ing and sending him to school, the
boy working in the restaurant before
aud after school, and on Saturdays.
The missing lad was located by man
from Winneoago.
Anoka Union: Printers are the vic
Tins of the worst and meanest trust in
these United States. Recently the trust
: said type of all kinds must be increased
in price and the printers can dance to
our discOrdent music, for we control
the output and the cusses can't help
themselves. Type has more than doubl-
ed in price in the last few years, aud
! the end does not seem to be reached
yet. Newspapers have borne this levy
without much complaint, but the last
straw is liable to break the came's
back. There is no help for the pub
fishers, but to raise the subscription
price of their papers.
Grand Meadow Record: We are
sorry to report that E. b Garter our
able veterinarian has decided to leave
Grand Meadow and locate in a larger
field. Owing to the death OF DR.. Lef-
fingweIl in Austin he has an OppOrtun-
ity to take up practice in that place
and he decided to 20 at once. He left
Tuesday and is now located there. 1t
leaves us at present without veterin-
arian but it is thot one may be induced
to come and take up DR.. Carter's prae5
tice very soon as he has left very
good one here. DR.. Carter leaves q
large circle OF friends who are sorry to
see him leave but are glad that he has
the opportunity TO take up larger
work.
