MUSICIANS BACK
FROM FRISCO MEET
butcher and Berger Return From
National Convention. See
Points of Interest.

1.-THE greatest ever,' was the way
W. j. butcher characterized the con-
vention of the Musicians union that
recently adjourned at San Francisco.
Many matters of interest to the un-
ion was taken up at the convention
among which was change of the ad-
ministrative policy of the union. AS
revised the business of the union will
now be handled on the administrative
plan instead of through district
councils.
Joseph N. Weber was reelected
president and Owen Miller was again
chosen as secretary of the union.
A Fine Trip.
The trip to the convention was
made about three weeks ago via Chi
cago, Denver, Salt Lake City and Los
Angeles. While in Salt Lake City the
two Duluth delegates had the pleas
ure of visiting the famous tabernacle.
At San Francisco the fair was the
main point of interest and probably
the most interesting exhibit of the fair
especially to the union delegates was
that of the American Federation of
Labor.
"A. F. of Il. Exhibit.
The exhibit of the A. F. of L. is,
according to those who have seen
it, without a doubt the handsomest
booth in the Palace of Education and
Social Economy. 1t occupies an area
20 by rs feet. The facade Is of beau
i tiful design. there being four CORN
THAN columns, surmsounted by an or
nate cornice. An archway in the CEN
ter forms a wide portal entrance.
Labels of various organizations and
the seal of the A. F. Of l.. with the
words " American Federation Of La
bor'' are shown on the panels of the
structure. The achievements Of the
organized labor movement are por-
trayed wildly in the exhibit and the
growth of the Federation from Its
birth to the present state is brought
out in detail. The trades untonists
of America should feel proud of the
exhibit of the American Federation
! of Labor" said the delegates on their
| return from 'Fisco, And we can pro-
| fit by emulating its example of thoro-
oughness.'
On the home trip the delegates
| passed through the great Salt Lake
via Ogden and came through Che
yenne in Wyoming.

IDENTIFY is not the proper way to OBJ
tain competent employees in the sew
era1 departments of the city. I'm
doubtedly without the safety of the
civil service as provided for in the
charter of the city of Duluth ap-
pointments to jobs would be mecca
for politicians and make of all de-
partments the football of successful
candidates to office.
Secretary johnson Discharged.
Ruben Johnson, secretary Of the
city civil service commission at $50
per month, will be succeeded July l
by Leonard McHugh, law clerk to
City attorney Greene. Mr.. McHugh
will serve as secretary Of the COM
mission without extra compensation.
Perhaps such a change will "change
the character Of the civil service
commission and. give the commission
more say in the selection of It's en-
ployes." 1t is predicted by many
that such tactics will destroy the
purpose for which civil service was
installed.
