TRIED SCHEME
At ABLEMAN

You have all heard that Reedsburg
and Baraboo Will be without liquor
after June 80.
AbIeman remains wet after the
above date.
Several men in Reedsburg thought
they would just try and see how it
would do to escape from a forthcom-
ing desert and Quench their thirst in
the village at the narrows.
They came.
Here is what resulted.
After reaching Alderman they swal
lowed several pink elephants, -
'whipper Isnappers, and flank
downs" Then the fun began. 1t is
alleged they knocked over bar ten
der and otherwise tried to upset the
town.
Then came their inning. Consta-
bic w. J. Kruger began bringing them
to Justice Adolph Andro's Office in
Baraboo by ones and two, all being
fined Here they are:
Walters Oehlers, fine and costs,
$11.44
Charles Thurman, fine, costs, $11.44.
Edward Beushausen, fine and costs,
$11.44
Percy Mcclure, fine, costs, $11.44.
Earl Wadleigh, fine, costs, $11.44.
All reside at Reedsburg and when
they pass through Ableman now they
refuse to look out of the car windows.
After Reedsburg is once dry they
will not go to Ableman and no doubt
will travel to Lime Ridge or some
other desirable location where a place
to quench the thirst is in evidence.

TRADES ASSEMBLY:
ENDORSES BUTCHER
Secretary Given Support Of
Delegates of Central Body
for Secretary Treasurer.

Secretary butcher of the Federated
animous endorsement by that body last
Friday evening for the office of Secre-
tary of the State Federation # Labor.
The only delegate who objected to
the endorsement Of Secretary Dutcher
was Henry Pereault, of the Cigarmak-
ers' union. Mr.. Pereault objected to
the endorsement of Secretary butcher,
by the assembly on the ground that
such action had never been taken
heretofore, and he did not believe the
delegates should be nailed down to any
one candidate. He expressed the opin-
ion that the present secretary, George
w. Lawson, was capable officer and
saw no reason for change in that
office.
Delegate Juls j. Anderson made a
strong appeal for the assembly's en-
dorsement of Secretary butcher stat
ing that Duluth was entitled to at least
one office: that the Twin Cities now
have the president, and secretary
treasurer, as well as four of the vice
presidents, who sit on the state execu-
tive council. He thought Duluth was
entitled at least to have a man named
as secretary treasurer, provided it
could supply man who was capable
of filling that office.
No one, of course, doubted that
Secretary butcher possessed such abil-
ity. In fact it is admitted that Secre-
tary butcher is one Of the best quail
| fled men who could be named forathat
! office. He has served the Duluth
Labor movement we'll during the past
10 years, and has proven that he is
especially we'll qualified in helping to
adjust matters between different
| unions or between unions and en-
| ployers.
Several delegates expressed regret
that Mr.. Pereault should take such a
stand, and were surprised that he oh.
jected to have the assembly instruct
! it's delegates to work for Mr.. butchers
| candidacy.
! It is expected that an aggressive
! campaign will be conducted by Secre.
| tary butchers friends, who believe
that he can be elected to this import
ant position.

UNION SMASHER ASHAMED

SAN FRANCISCO, June 2S.-The
Labor Clarion prints the speech of
President Eppinger of the Restaurant
association at a banquet in honor of
his management of the recent lockout
Of culinary workers.
Eppinger was not jubilant over his
victory and acknowledged that Il have
never been able to take the same pride
in our achievements in the late un-
pleasantness."
II have always felt that the work
that we did last year was the poorest
sort of work that an association of
employers could do.
I'm the end you will sit down at
the table with labor. Let us seek a
victory over ourselves rather than over
our employees. Let us seek to create
a prosperous level Of business by con-
structive work, rather than to bend all
our energies to destructive work."
IF restaurant men will act with the
same unity of purpose that character
lied their attitude in the culinary
strike, we will bring about condition
in our business which will be q tri-
umph for our organization"

Interesting Account of st.: Paul
Woman's Experiences in South
During Civil War.
BY MARION H. MATCHITT.


CAS- printed in 1.-THE World" pub
ished by the. students of Central
High, st. Paul.)
We have all heard the story of Bar
bara Frietchie, of the brave old lady
who insisted the Stars and Stripes
should wave just above her window,
and who was willing to give her life,
that they chould 1.main there.
Shoot if you must this old gray head,
But spare your country's flag" she
caid.
So runs the poets story, but it's
counterpart in real life is to be found
in the true story Of Mrs. Eugenia B.
Farmer of st. Paul, a dear old lady
whose eye the course of time has
failed to dim, and whose personality
radiates that gentle helpfulness which
so often comes to sweet characters in
their ripe old age. -:
The story takes us back over fifty
years to the strife-ridden days of the
Civil war. Mrs. Farmer was then
residing in st. Louis. This great
southern city was a hot-bed of con-
fllct. The greater part of it's citizen
there were also those who believed in
the principles of the north. Nor. was
there any halfway feeling. Those of
the south were inter Sc in their hatred
of all things pertaining to the north.
The few who believed in the abolition
OF slavery as necessary for the pre-
servation of the Union, were equally
strong in their dislike Of the preju-
'dices of the south.
One day, at, Eugenia Farmers win
dow, flagstaff was placed, and from
it in the southern breeze waved the
good old Stars and Stripes. Her
naughty uthern neighbors were i'll
suited and scandalized.- A veritable
revolution was Immediately brewing
in the very boardi, house in which
she lived. The storm was not long in
breaking. A gentleman of the house
soon accosted her in no very gentle
manner. He was doubtless spokes-
man for all the others.
Mrs. Farmer" he said, "is that
your Yankee flag?"
1T certainly u.s." was the prompt
reply.
II wish to notify you that that flag
must be t'ken down. It hangs i'm
mediately owl the entrance and I
absolutely refuse to pass under it,
But this stern southerner had met
more than his match in the slight-fig-
ured yong lady who stood before
him. Her eyes flashed.
If you refuse to walk beneath that
flag" was her defiant answer, you
can walk around the block and use
the back door,
II shall have that flag taken
down." asserted the fiery southerner.
LET me tell you that who ever

THE WORKING GIRL; WHAT ABOUT HER?
WHAT HER WAGES AND CONDITIONS?

One of the really important phases
OF our industrial life, that is often
overlooked or its importance minim-
lied, when it is considered, is the con-
ditions surrounding +he working girls
Organized labor is the only body that
has given this matter even a 1.-THE Of
the thought and study of which it is
deserving. The average citizen knows
that there are working girls, because
he or his wife or family have come
in direct contact with them in some
of their avocations, but as to the
wages received, the conditions sur
rounding their employment or the
hours of labor involved in their eff
forts to make a living; all this is
Greek to him.
One, for instance, knows that Miss
Soandso clerks at Catchem & Rob-
bem's emporium, assumes that she is
getting along all right from the mere
fact that she is always On the job.
Sometime one may see Miss Soandso
under circumstances that makes one
wonder at her lack Of refinement"
without in an. way connecting her
company" With her economic strug-
gle. If Miss Soandso happens to work
in a restaurant, laundry or other es-
tablishment where the services of wo-
men are sought by reason of their
willingness to work cheaper than
men, the results are largely the same.
Right in Knoxville we have girls
that are working for far less than
the minimum amount required to
keep a girl in even the ordinary de-
1-af ~
keep their moral status and keep
aloof from questionable associations.
In every town in this and every other
state similar conditions exist, but this
is no exc::ce or palliative for our ne
elect.
Girls are employed in stores in
Knoxville for as low as five dollars
a week and for this paltry wage are
compelled to work from fifty-four to
sixty hours a week. Out of this she
must clothe and care for herself and,
the pity of it! we expect her to retain
! the purity and cleanliness of child
hood.
Girls are employed in the 1aundries
of Knoxville for a wage entirely in
adequate to maintain a decent stand
ard of living, yet the proprietors Of
these places, with the majority Of the
minimizing public, wonder when some
trouble-scarred soul slips from the
path of virtue.
It is only through organization that
the girls in industry can hope to bet
ter their conditions. Even proprie-
tors are helpless when compelled to
compete with others for the business.
However much they might like to pay
better wage they are helpless to i'm
prove conditions because they are

STRIKERS ENJOINED.

BLOOMINGTON, Ill, June 2S.-
Striking street car men have been en-
joined by Judge Welty, at the request
of the Bloomington & Normal railway
and Light company, from interfering
with, hindering or obstructing the
company's operations" The strikers
are debarred from soliciting the public
not to patronize the cars.
Bloomington trade unionists pro-
tested against this injunction at one
of the largest mass meetings ever held
in this city.
The strike was called when the COM
pany refused to meet committee OF
it's employees and discharged workers
because they joined the union. The
company has a union agreement with
employees on it's lines in other cities.

tied to the wheel of low-wages by
their less humane competitor.
If the girls were organized condi-
tons would be changed for all. BY
reason Of their working agreement
every competing business would be
bound to observe the same general
conditions as regards wages and hours
of labor and none would suffer. Yet
the proprietors hedge" from this
solution of a problem that they know
exists, for the alleged reason that they
would be signing away their rights
Of management
We have listened to the sophistry
about the working girls being salts
fled with long hours of employment
and their present wages till we have
become nauseated. If there is such
satisfaction it has been induced by fear
of the loss of employment and is not
directed by an honest acquiescense in
the injustice endured. We have every
sympathy for the employer who is
forced to meet existing competitive
conditions but who still would like to
do better but for the man who urges
that his employees are satisfied even
though he may gull himself into be-
lief in the truth of this, we have only
pity.
We hope that the big, strong
hearted, organized mechanics Of the
city will take up this question and
render every aid to their sisters who
are doomed to work for a living. In
the name of humanity let US see that
they are organized and that they are
accorded the economic justice that is
their due. Every man and woman in
the city who sits idly by while pres
ent conditions prevail is equally re-
sponsible before Supreme power for
the fortunes to which ally of the
women workers may subject them
selves in order to recruit their made
quate Wages.-KnoXVille Labor News,

Mrs. Farmers sturdy reply.

Never nd, you'll not try to find
out if you're wise.''
This ended the conversation and
Mrs. Farmer went TO her room where
day after lay she :'tood guard at the

Stripes. The flag drew forth many a
scowl and ugly word from passers-by
But those W''o inquired the story of
her impertinent Yankee flag, dared
not attempt to remove it and face the
peril which one brave little woman
had pledged would be the penalty.
A little later Union troops came
into complete control of the city.
They found Mrs. Farmers lone flag
