Mr. Jobe conversed with number
OF persons along the way as he walked
back along the line. One man said
THAT il had been many years since
Chicago had seen so many men in line
as have been in evidence this year
There is always some needy In the big
city but for the past five years the

Saw Mill Men Wise

Some few weeks ago we mentioned
the fact that the saw mill men OF the
Michigan Wisconsin territory had
entered into an agreement not to par.
chase any more logs from independent
jobbers unless the entire cut was sold
This rule was adopted because OF the
activity OF the Manasha Woodenware
company in picking mp basswood at
an advanced price over what mill men
will pay for it Eastwood Is wood
that is greatly in demand and the mill
men found that after the Menssha
people got the basswood and the Kiel
psople the helm, there WASH much
else than the leav'ens for them.
hence the rule
or course the saw mill men could
pay decent price and get the timber
but they have been so in the habit of
getting timber for little or nothing
that II is hard for them 10 break away
from the habit
Independent jobbers found that they
could get little more than new
dollar for an old il they could get
fancy prices from one concern for
their Eastwood and from another for
their elm and so on so that the mill
men were actually getting very little
else than what was left
Wm Hll,uss Jr Of this city is Que
of the heaviest independent jobbers
in this section and IA reply TO letter
written by him to n lumber company
Offering some OF his logs for sale he
got a reply in which the writer used |
the expression. The saw mill men are
getting wise
Mr.. Holmes lust penned back "You
'sy that the saw mill men are GETT-
NC wise. My idea has always been
hat Solomon was never in IL when
with the saw mill men that
have known and my hope is that
hey will gather no more wisdom

taken at the instigation OF Chss. f.
Meyer and were to be used by the
Western Federation officers in ma
tion wide advertising campaign of pre-
judice against the copper country
mining companies and tho people OF
that section.
In the evening he returned to the
hotel. placing the exposed films in a
carrying case which be had for that
purpose. The case also contained five
empty spools on which the films had
been rolled before being exposed. Mr..
Hair left his room at six O'Clock 10

fed il as the one which disappeared

he had taken of the days events. how

left by whoever took the case.
This is the first time In his exper.
fence as motion picture operator.
Mr.. Hair stated, that such a thing
has happened to him. He was not

philosophical view of II. stating that
as long rs the pictures were gone il
was no use to worry and fuss about

would give $50 In cash for the return

declared Monday that IL proper pro-
vision is made Immediately for mer-
chant marine, the industrial problems
confronting us as the result OF the
European war will be taken care OF
and work will be provided for Amer
lean workmen. He said:
There will be plenty Of work in
this country If we can get the market
for our products. If we do not get
that market quickly conditions will be
very bad. The wheat crop in the
northwest is bigger than last year,
but it will do the country no good I'M
less we get the ships to transport it.
There will be a great demand for
the product of our mills and factories
but what good will that do unless we
get ships? Ships are what we need
most just now.

MEAT PRICES JUMP.
Chicago Butchers Will Inquire Into
Cause.

Chicago, Aug. 11.-An advance of
from two to five cents in the price of
meats in the local retail market
caused the Chicago Butchers associa-
ton today to call a meeting to inquire
into the causes for the jump in prices.
The wholesale firms asserted today
that the cause back Of the sharp ad-
vance in meats was the small receipts
of animals at the stockyards. Cattle
raisers, they declared. were holding
back for an expected big jump in
prices.
Livestock receipts at the stock yards
yesterday as compared with a year
ago were:
Cattle. 1913, $4,000; 1914. $4,000.
Hogs. 1913, $4,000: 1914, $4,000.
sheep, 1913, $1,000; 1914, $4,000.
The wholesale price of pork loins
has been raised ten cents a pound in
ten days. said John T. Russell, presi-
dent of the United Master Butchers of
America. The present price is I'M
justifiable."
The potato is about the only food
that has not increased in price in the
Chicago district since war was declar-
ed in Europe.
