PROF. SIMON HARRIES
. BURBERRY PICKERS
Poor People Cruelty Refused
What Rich Owner Cannot
or Will Not Use.

Poor people with yearning for the
festive blueberry express the opinion
that J. P. Simon is meaner than dirt.
J. P. Simon is a wealthy man who
conducts an alleged business college in
Superior and, at the same time, holds
title to many and valuable chunks of
real estate. Among other holdings,
the business college proprietor is sole
and exclusive owner of six hundred
acres of Gods green foot-stool some
miles out Of Superior.
Thanks to the sun, rains and
breezes, Prof. Simon's aforesaid six
hundred acres are fairly blue with
blueberries. Those promises are noted
far and wide for their abundance of
berries. Prof. Simon makes no at
tempt to gather his blueberries, there
fore poor people, who cannot afford
to pay the food hog price of $3.50 4
bushel or 1915 for case of sixteen
quarts, are impelled to trespass on the
Simon domain for the purpose Of gath
ering the festive fruit.
Although Prof. Simon does not at
tempt to gather his blueberry crop,
he is not without berries in his hand
some home in Superior. He lies in
wait until some poor person has gath
cred a considerable quantity, after
which he or some heartless agent con-
fiscate the pals, buckets or baskets
Of blueberries so toilfully gathered.
Sunday, Aug. 10, so say those who
claim full information, Prof. Simon
took large quantities Of berries away
from the poor people who had gath
cred them. It also is alleged that the
bard-hearted educator had an agent
with him who carried a cruel black
snake whip with which to enforce
their demands that berries picked on
the Simon land be surrendered to the
thrifty owner of it.
Several trespassers have been ar
rested. A couple Of weeks ago, Prof.
Simon had a couple of poor women
arrested for trespass, a deputy sheriff
being assigned the benevolent lob. The
Judge found them guilty of technical
trespass and fined them $1.o0 each,
but suspended sentence. The women
then swore out complaint against
the thrifty Simon on charge of stick
ing revolver under the nose Of a
boy who was in the party.
One man from Duluth got the best
of the Superior citizen who reaps
where he has not sown and gathers
where he has not strewn. He evaded
detection and in six short hours
nicked 40 quarts Of the forbidden ber-
ries. This shows how plentiful and
thick a crop grows on the Simon
estate.
Nearly every berry picker will vote
AYE" on a resolution to the effect
that Prof. J. P. Simon is the cham.
pion tightwad of all Superior.

He declares that the men are veritable

MILLIONS OF POUNDS
OF FOOD IN STORAGE
Government Agents Uncover
Vast Stocks i'm Local Plants.
Action Awaited.

Ever since the big storm burst, gov
eminent inspectors have been giving
Duluth thorough investigation. Last
Tuesday morning, the News Tribune
came out with the following most
startling information, viz:
"Storage plants in the city of Du-
luth are holding millions Of pounds Of
foodstuffs, including butter, eggs, fish
and meat, according to the compila-
tion. of data obtained by federal agents
who have been operating during the
last three days under the direction Of
T. E. Campbell, special Investigator
for the United States department Of
Justice. Disclosures made yesterday
low that there are approximately
25,O0O,O0O eggs in cold storage in Du-
luth, he said, but he would not di.
vulge their whereabouts.
"The report compiled by Mr..
Campbell, he said, showed the follow
ing amounts of foodstuffs in storage
in the city.
diseases pounds of butter; 10000
cases Of eggs; 2,S59.1s5 pounds Of
fresh frozen fish; 351,17 pounds Of
allied and picked fish; 1,5s3,o73
pounds Of dry salt pork; 121 1874
pounds Of beef; 1858 pounds Of
miscellaneous meats.
"The fish and meat were found in
the storage plants Of fish companies.
Mr.. Campbell said, but the names Of
individuals or concerns involved in the
storage Investigation were not di.
vulged. They can be made public only
on the authority Of United States Dis
trict Attorney Alfred Jaques who is
now in st. Paul. The report will be
placed in Mr.. Jaques' hands for &C.
tion.'
The tiny mustard seed sowed by the
Rip-Saw rapidly is growing into a
tree that promises soon to fill the
heavens, so to speak.
The Duluth rip-saw. [volume] (Duluth, Minn.) 1917-19??, 1919-08-23

ers onto the age-worn petition. If it
is not filled up soon, it will have gray
whiskers on it two feet long. They
have been introducing it around for a
solid month.
Last Monday the petition was not
at all near completion. The Rip-Saw
now understands that at least 1000
names are required, names Of legal,
qualified voters, instead Of 1000, as
previously stated. Last Monday, one
authority declared that not to exceed
800 names were actually on the petit
ton. A number Of cases were re-
ported where early signers were seek
ing to recall their signatures, declar-
ing that they signed under a misun-
derstanding. There was one man who
thought that there might be 400
names on the petition but he would
bet nothing on it and no one backed
his opinion. ". e.. -'.
One interesting incident in this
movement is that Col. U. J. Burnside
has refused to sign the petition. He
feels that he has so many personal
troubles and worries right now that
he had better remain entirely neutral.
The pimps, gamblers, redlight women
the few that remain in the city
the n blind-piggers, burglars, sneak
thieves and some Of the recently dis
charged policemen feel greatly en-
couraged over the fact that Mayor
Baxter is being opposed by Messrs.
Near-Beer & Bevo, couple Of gents
who print a scandal sheet in Mime
apolis. They assure the underworld
element that they can spout enough
mud and slime to bring about change
in government and Mayor Baxter
recall.
Some time ago, it is alleged, the
Superior underworld raised a jackpot
of about $4,000 to buy few eruptions
Of mud and slime by the Minneapolis
scandal sheet. Messrs. Near-Beer 6
Bevo set about to earn and annex the
The Duluth rip-saw. [volume] (Duluth, Minn.) 1917-19??, 1919-08-23

dough. In some way, they got mixed
up with a couple Of crooks going I'M
der the name of II. G. Ford and F. G.
Grimes, who were in Duluth and Su-
perior off and on for several weeks,
representing the Twin City Mud
singer and telling the boys in all the
pool halls of the Twin Ports how
Messrs. Near-Beer & Bevo were going
to blow Baxter off the map.
From the way the nasty scandal
sheet has fallen down, it now is sus.
pected that either the sports held out
in payment Of the $4,000 or that
Messrs. Ford and Grimes got their fin
gers on the greater portion Of it.
As these lines are written, 81. G..
Ford is under arrest for passing bogus
checks in Duluth and Superior while
he was posing as agent for the scan
dal sheet sponsored by Messrs. Near
Beer 6 Bevo. One check was cashed
at the Hotel Superior, another at the
Spalding hotel and another at the
Lyceum cafe. Grimes seems to have
cleared his skirts but Ford was caught
in Milwaukee and brought back to the
head of the lakes, where the law will
be laid upon him. Although the Twin
City Defamer repudiates both men,
some one must be standing by Ford,
for Ray M. Hughes is his lawyer. in
default Of $500 bail, he was in jail
Tuesday last.
But to get back to the main issue,
il must be admitted that the proposed
recall Of Mayor Baxter and the return
to the ward system are not popular
in Superior. The best people Of the
city, the business men very heavily
and, above all, the labor unions are
for Baxter and the commission form
of government. Not even Bob Shields
can seduce the people away from
either one.
The Superior Trades and Labor as
sembly not only recently went on rec
ord against a change but by formal
vote denied that it ever had endorsed
any movement looking to change.
As stated in the previous issue Of
the great family journal, the car
penters' and the blacksmiths' unions
formally endorsed Mayor Baxter and
went against abolition Of the commits
sion form Of government.
More recently, the Iron Range
Lodge, No. 296, Brotherhood of Loco
motive Firemen and Enginemen,
passed strong resolutions in favor Of
Mayor Baxter and the present form
of government and against the pro-
posed change.
Journeymen BARRIERS union No. 139
also passed a resolution in support Of
Mayor Baxter and the present form
Of government. Last Monday night,
local union No. ia of the Boilermak-
ers, Iron Shipbqilders & Helpers of
America followed the suit Of the other
unions. It is believed that, in due
course, practically every labor union
in the city will take a firm and posi-
tive stand in favor of the present gov
eminent and the mayor.
After that will come endorsements
by civic, educational, moral and even
religious organizations.

BOARD OF EDUCATION
ENDS PAINT DISPUTE
Directors and Painters Union
Put An End to Paint MonOp-
oily in School Business.

Under Hoke and Harwood, entirely
too many business questions pertain
tanning to public school matters are
settled merely because that way
would be- followed in Minneapolis.
When the willy McGiffert dominated
the board of education, every ques-
ton was settled in a way not to hurt
the feelings or the business welfare
Of A. M. Marshall.
Just before the recent school cleo
tion, Director Proved introduced q
resolution to the effect that the board
of education refrain from patronizing
the Marshall Wells Hardware Co. so
long as that concern was unfair to
organized labor.
Under the guiding hand Of Director
Crassweller, vote on the resolution
was put over a month. When that
month had elapsed, the board Of edu-
cation was told that such plan was
legally impossible, therefore the cor
poration sympathizers voted down tho
Little Commoner' resolution. The
minutes Of the meeting show that
Director Coole voted with the auto
Gratis and against organized labor. Di-
rector Proved alleges that he heard
Mr.. Coole vote just the opposite, he
Withholding his vote until Mr.. Coole
voted.
Director Firoved's resolution was
inspired by a kick from the Painters
union, that organization alleging that
specifications for paint Invariably
called for Hock-a-Day paint, handled
exclusively by the Marshall Wells
company. It was claimed that oths,
paints were just as good, If not bet
ter, and considerably cheaper.
The business agent of the Painters
union kept after the directors and, it
is believed, had several earnest SEES
sions with Sir Stanley Harwood, bust
ness superintendent, who measures
and bases so many school board mat
tiers according to the Minneapolis
standard.
At first it was proposed to paint
one surface with Hock-a-Day paint
and another surface with other paint
not monopolized by the MARSHALL
Wells company.
Now comes the information that diff
ferences between the Painters union
and the school board have been salts
factorily adjusted. Minneapolis meth
DDS and Marshall Wells Hardware
company methods have been put in
the background to the extent that,
hereafter, specifications for paint and
painting will not be broad enough to
make it possible to use other paint
than some brand monopolized by tho
canny Marshall interests. As the
Labor World recently said, this win
make it possible to save at least $500
a year in paint bills. This sum will
be sufficient to give five school teach
ers an increase in salary Of 500 each
per year. Other economies will result
in making it possible to give more
teachers, engineers and jaaitors in
creases in salaries without increasing
taxes.
Already, the long-suffering public,
the public schools and even the school
board are getting benefit from tho
retirement Of the autoeratis HcGif-
fert.

A TRADE TRAGEDY

When the Great Drouth struck
Duluth, one Sattler is alleged to
have had an unduly heavy quantity
of liquor on hand. In the good old
Wet days, he did business with a
Finnish saloon-keeper who, in turn,
occupied building supposed to be-
long to one I. Freimuth, proprietor
Of a local department store.
Now Freimuth, so the story goes,
wanted to help out Sattler, the man
who had sold booze to the Finn who
had helped out tho department
store merchant by renting his
building. AS a result of this kindly
feeling and neighborly regard, it IS
alleged that load Of booze was
sent to the Firms soft drink en-
porium, each bottle in the load
being wrapped in a new shirt, as
camouf1age.
It came to pass that, before all
Of the blockade booze had been
sold, the eagle-eyed police pinched
the Finn for fitting the lid and
confiscated the unsold portion Of
the spirituous stuff.
In due course, Freimuth Is al
legged to have called on the Finnish
proprietor for the return Of the
shirts that were used to camou.
flage the consignment Of bottled
goods.
"You 60 ii for shirt" re-
piled the Finn. "Gustomer he's no
bay for cover on pottle.'
That being given a liberal inter-
probation means:
'It is not my custom to pay for
the wrappers on goods that buy"
