New Equipment
For Press Office

During the past several mon
tbs the work in the Press office
has been so heavy that the office
force has been working day and
night in an endeavor to get the
work out and the continual grind
has brought us face to face with
the proposition of either getting
additional help or going up
against a physical breakdown.
After going over the situation
carefully it was found that with
the enlarged number of pages
we are printing each week and
in order to bring the paper up to
the standard we have set for 1t
that the purchase of large am
cunt of additional equipment
would be necessary, and the Sc
Cureino of at least two additional
printers was necessary TO prop
erly handle the work and give
our readers the paper we wanted
to give them.
The hirelng of additional help
is an impossible matter as is well
known by everyone who has
tried to secure labor-even the
unskilled labor is impossible to
secure.
Taking everything into conSid-
Grafton it was deemed advisable
by the bubli> hSrS to purchase
labor saving machinery, and we
have purchased, and will install
Immediately upon its arrival here
a slug astin9 typesetting mach
inc known as the Linoeraph.
This wonderful machine will
take the place of number OF
men in the setting OF the type
for the newspaper, the ads, and
for a great amount OF job work,
and will enable the present force
to handle the work in a much
easier manner and the same time
give a great deal more interes-
ting reading matter in the col
umS OF the Press.
The machine is made by the
Linograph Company, at Daven-
port, Iowa, and shipment of the
machine to the Press will be
made in the next few days.
Ii is hoped that the machine
will be here and installed and
working in the course OF the
next two weeks. After the ma,
chine is installed we invite all
our readers to call in and see
this wonderful piece of mach
inery that is almost human in
its capabilities.

Haakon County
Farmers To Strike

the north part OF the county. Al
though our informant is Ordinar-
lily a reliable individual, and one
of the most truthful men in the
whole north country, we do not
vouCh for the truth of his story
this time nor mention names he
gives us, we simply pass it on to
our readers for what it may be
worth.
1t seems that the social revolu-
ton has reached that nelebor-
hood The farmers in that neigh
borhOod have lately watched the
striYes of the railroad workers,
the telegraph operators, the dock
laborerS, the New York printers,
the steel workers, and the coal
miners, end thev have decided to
do a little striking on their own
account.
The community is being thoro-
u9hly organized, and it is belIeV-
that the open farm shop in this
community will soon be a thing
of the past. A committee on
picketinQ has been appointed
Members will patrol the town
ship line, and persons attempting
TO enter therein on and after
November lSt, when the strike
is to be declared, will be SluQ9ed
and thrown in the ditch
There are still a few refractory
farmers who refuse to join the or
9aniZatiOn. They will be taken
care OF by a committee appointed
torthat purpose If they do not
come into the union and declare
for the closed shop, their stacks
will be burned; their tractors will
be wrecked; and their cattle will
be run out OF the country, In a
word it is proposed to let loose a
real reign of terror .in the north
ern part of the county after the
model of that furnished by the
steel strikers.
These striking farmers have
drawn up the following formal
mandS:
l. Hereafter the farm working
day in this township shall be
eight hours in length, with Satur-
day afternoon and sunday off.
2 No farmer in this township
shall hereafter work more than
tOrty-four nourS in one week. EX-
ira work shall be adequately paid
for by the public as overtime
Milking COWS before eight o'clock
in the morning and after five IN
the evening shall be paid for as
time-and-a-halt. Milking cows
before six O'Clock in the morning
or after seven in the evening
shall count as double time.
g. That the price OF all farm
products grown in this township
shall be advanced flat twenty per
cent after November lSt.
4. The right to collective bar
gaining shall be preserved. Here
after the price OF farm products
/ in the township shall be deter
mined at a meeting of the farm
erS themselves held at the town
hall, and not by the grain dealers
in Minneapolis or the packers IL
Chicago.
5. The sanitary conditions un
der which farmers have beer
working in this township must
be improved. The unsatisfactory
and unSavory conditions of cattle
sheds and barn yards must be
remedied. The public must at
tend to this.
The program is not an old one
Its novelty consists in the fac,
that it has not heretofore beer
