carried forward with expedition and
success. To readjust the processes of
peace so as to serve the activities Of
war has been an undertaking requir-
ing leadership of unexampled skill. So
striking has been the result, so prompt
has been the response of the people,
so free have our public affairs been
from any suggestion Of scandal or i'm
proper influence. that it scarcely lies
in the mouth of those who conducted
the Spanish-American war to indulge
in the luxury of criticism.
Who Will Be Leaders?
"Our purposes are not limited by
the war. What we have accomplish
ed thus far. both in the matter Of war
preparation and in domestic reform,
serve as an Indication of the spirit
with which We will undertake the
great problems of reconstruction
which will follow the cessation of hos
tilities. Vocational training, already
undertaken, must be further devel-
oped, having in mind not only the
training Of the youth Of the country,
but also with view to the needs Of
those who have been injured or dis
fronted, in probably much changed
aspect, with the question Of employer
and employee. It is highly essential
that there shall be established a basis
which shall make the recurring con-
flicts between capital and labor no
longer a, disturbing element in the
life Of America. The ultimate status
of the public utilities and essential
war industries taken over by the gov-
eminent during the war period must
be fixed and their relation to the. life
of our people must be determined.
Foreign trade must be developed
and the methods Of taxation must
| come under the closest scrutiny. Al!
| the activities of our country must be
| freshened and renewed after this pc
! Rod Of sacrifice and stress. It must
| be a stimulated, not an exploited, de-
| velopment. The best thought of Amer
| lea must be concentrated on this great
| business so that the future may at
! ford an increasingly better lot for the
generations yet unborn. This is the
| task to which America must address
! herself in the days of peace following
! this period of war. It is impossible
! erly be conducted except under the
| most disinterested and intelligent
! leadership.
''To whom will the country look for
| that leadership? Will it turn back to
| the discordant elements Of the Repub-
/ lican party and to discredited and sta
| tionary statesman who seek to reapply
; the processes of antiquity: or will the
| American people follow in the path
| blazed by our great President, and
continue a purpose which has already
! brought us unreasonable advantage
| and which has so signally reaffirmed
| our faith in the Democratic form of
government? There can be but one
sane answer to this question:

Best Values at The Big Duluth
The labor world. [volume] (Duluth, Minn.) 1896-current, 1918-11-02
Hugh Fawcett

Hugh Fawcett, candidate for the
legislature in the 58th., district, is
an old resident of Duluth and dis
trict in which he lives. Mr.. Faw-
cett is in the contracting business
and for years has been an employer
of union labor, always paying top
notch wages, recognizing the eight
hour day and giving to his men
ideal working conditions.
Mr.. Wawcett is a man of con-
viction and can be depended upon
to vote right on all questions af-
fecting the interests of the common
people among whom he has always
lived. He is pledged to work for
a new compensation law that will
more justify compensate injured
workingmen. He will vote in ac-
cordance with the wishes of the
Minnesota State Federation of La
Dor on legislation of this character,
to the program of which he is SOL
emily pledged by conviction and
the demands of justice.
Mr.. Fawcett is for the DRY
Amendment to the state constit-
ution and will vote to ratify the
Federal amendment to make the
Nation Dry. He will also vote for
supplementary legislation to abb
solutely insure prohibition in Min
nesota.
| He will support all legislation to
make Duluth free; to give industry
free opportunity in this section of
the state; to remove the barriers
which have been set up against the
northeastern section of the state and
which have operated against our de-
velopement.
He will at all times work and
vote in the interests of the people
of the state as whole, and he will,
as he has always done, support the
government of the United States in
the present war. His two boys are
with the United States army in
France. This fact and his personal
record are the best evidences of his
loyalty.
Vote for Hugh Fawcett for the
legislature. His strongest endorse
ment comes from his neighbors on
Duluth Heights with whom he has
lived for rs years and who are sup
porting him Loyalty. You have the
right to vote for two candidates for
this office. May we ask you to
make Hugh Fawcett one of our
choices.

FOREIGN MARKETS FOR COTTON
LlNTERS. BATTING AND
WASTE

A survey of the foreign markets for
cotton linters, batting, and waste has
been completed by American counsuls
and the results made public in a re-
port issued today by the Bureau of
Foreign and Domestic Commerce, De-
partment of Commerce. This is a
subject concerning which very little
information has been available in the
past but the opinion is expressed that
if careful study of the field is made
now the after-war trade will greatly
exceed the total of $11 100000 achiev-
ed before hostilites commenced.
The sales of llnters to foreign coun-
tries have increased rapidly since the
war started, as has the price, but the
total exports of waste have decreased
somewhat, owing to the fact that the
latter material is not so important to
war industries. and also to the fact
that Germany, the second best GUS
toner before the war is no longer in
the market.
The markets is more than fifty

Such is the spirit of the Red Cross,
that hesitates at no sacrifice in the
noblest mission of humanity, the allie
Walton of sufferings and the succor OF
the distressed. that never stops to
think of self, but is willing to give
all to the great mission to which il is
dedicated and which it has so nohly
performed on the stricken fields of
Europe, in the devastated regions of
the earth and in great disasters at
home, The unhappy fate of Miss Ash
Gilman emphasizes anew the glorious
courage and deathless devotion of
those who proudly bear the symbol of
the blood-red cross.
