BIG CIRCUS ANNOUNCED
Carl Hagenbeck- Wallace Shows Arc to
Exhibit Here Soon

The billboards and dead walls about
the city are announcing in all the clio.
quence Of pictorial art that the Carl
Hagenbeck-Wallace Circus is to visit
Little Falls, Wednesday, Aug. 49,.
Great interest attaches to the event,
particularly so because the circus is
the only tented exhibition offering an
array of trained wild animals. The
name Carl Hagenbeck for nearly a
century has stood at the top in the
annals of wild animals. Every ZOO
of any Importance in the world re-
ceives its charges from the Carl Ha-
genbeck headquarters at Hamburg,
Germany, as we'll as the fact that the
lnenageries Of all circuses are similar
ly supplied.
So much interest did the Carl Ha-
genbeck trained wild animals cause
at the St. Louis World s Fair in 1904
that Mr.. E. B. Wallace, owner of the
Wallace Circus, entered into negotia-
lions with Mr.. Hagenbeck. The re-
suit was that both great institutions
were united into one Of the biggest
tented exhibitions in the world. Year
after year the two shows have gone
on improving. AS fast as rare and
costly animals were captured in the
jungles of the uncivilized world thew
have been forwarded bv the agents
Of Carl Hagenbeck to the great Am
erican show.
But the trained wild animals which
appear in an arena with the Carl Ha
genbeck-Wallace Circus are but one
feature of the big show. This years
program is one Of unusual interest. An
entirely new array of European ar
lists have been added and are appear
ing for the first time in the United
States. Altogether there are more
than 400 artists with the circus who
appear in the six arenas. The big show
will give an all-new street parade at
10 a: M, preceding the first exhibition.
Performances are given daily at 2
and p. m.-Adv.

SCORE

Little Falls All Stars took the meas

administering them a defeat by a
score Of 9 to 2. The weather was not
the kind for good baseball, a light

Perched on a high stool, Harper
read him the items one by one; that
on such a date one workman had put
in nine hours. another six, another
two, and so on through the spring and
the early summer.

Conrad looked troubled. The whole

him. and it bothered him that his usu.

that he was deliberately adding sew

M.

three solid hours of toll, Harper sent
Conrad home ahead of him while he
counted up the new record. As re-
vised, the book showed over a thou

Day Labor Plan Super
ior to Contract System

Although this job cost $114.21 more
than the engineers estimate. it sull
furnishes striking proof of the super
iority of the day labor over the con
tract system Of public work construc-
ton
In making comparison it must be
borne in mind that when the job was
first submitted to bid, no bids were
forthcoming. The second time a reg
ular contractor, Mr. Synder bid 81
365, or $437 more than the estimate.
Another bid of $940 was submitted by
a group Of men who expected to do
the work in cooperation.
This piece of work has been pro-
nounced by some of the oldest sewer
men as one of the most difficult ever
constructed in Everett. The fact that
So hours, or over 81a days, We're re-
quired to sharpen picks proves this
contention.
Had the job been awarded to Tom

would have received $1S5 per day for

Every man within the district who
applied for work was hired. That
with the fact that the city paid from

contractors reflects to the credit of

WHAT LABOR" INCLUDES.

SAN FRANCISCO -- The labor
question is as big, as broad, as deep, as
extensive as human activity" said
Secretary of Labor Wilson in a
speech in this city. IF you take as
your definition of labor any physical
or mental activity, not exclusively for
pleasure, then you have some concep-
tion of the breadth of the movement
which takes into consideration and
seeks to handle properly all of these
activities The most important func-
ton, the most important thing grow
ing out of the creation of the new fed
eral department of labor, is that from
now on labor has a voice in the coun-
ellis Of our Nation"

UNIONS PROTECT LIFE.

Attention is called to the evidence
of the inspector of mines of Colorado
that the courts of that state were
practically closed to complaints of
violations of the mining laws.
The editor of the Mine Workers
Journal makes these observations:
Organization of the miners is the
only way through which such loss of
life can be lessened. Through their
organization the men who have to
face these dangers could voice their
collective demands for observance of
the laws, and for the well-known
safeguards against accidents. Domi-
nation of the courts would be elimi-
mated by organized men, free to ex-
press themselves through their bal
lots. Thus violations of the law
would be made more costly than the
observance thereof. Safety for the
men would become more profitable
for the company than accidents. I'm
personal ownership of the industries
has made organization of the work
ers imperative. Without organiza
tion they cannot survive"
