LOCAL FREIGHT HANDLERS
STRIKE SETTLED QUICKLY

! There was short lived strike of
freight handlers at the Northern Pa
! cific docks this week. Finn employees,
. said to be adherents of the I. w. w ,
walked out when their demand for
; the Buffalo scale was denied them
, The Buffalo scale is so cents an hour
and SO cents for overtime.
Members Of the Longshoremen' S
union, 40. 81, were also employed on
the docks. and when the Firms called
the strike they refused to work. The
; matter was taken to the union and a
committee was appointed to wait on
! the superintendent. He explained
that he was unable to grant the Buff
fa!o scale as that would have to come
! from the administrat ting department
at Washington.
| After Il lengthy conference an
! agreement was made with the union
to give union men preference in en-
ployment and a recommendation
would be made to Washington to
grant the Buffalo scale here, this to
be retroactive to Sept. 1. The union
! accepted ths proposition, and now for
| the first time the local union has an
agreement with the Northern Pacific
; road here.

TO Preserve BEANS

To preserve string beans in brine,
select half-grown thick-hulled beans,
string and break them into pieces.
Boil for exactly one hour in clear
water to which is added a pinch Of
salt, as if preparing them for the
table. Drain and when perfectly cold,
pack the beans into an earthenware
jar. For the brine: Add two and one
half pints of salt to each gallon Of
clear cold water. Pour this over the
beans and weight them down with a
heavy plate. The brine must COM
rletely cover the beans at all times.
More beans and more brine (both
prepared AS directed above) can be
added rs the beans are procured.
Cover the jar with a cloth to keep out
aust and set in cool place, but not
where the contents would freeze.
TO prepare saltcd beans for the
table. drain out Of brine as many as
you wish to use, cover to depth of
ttcce inches with boiling water, to

co TO ST.PAUL
FOR AUTHORITY
Of What Value Is Home Rule
Charter # We Must Run
to Legislature.

Duluth has got a home rule charter.
When Judge Bert F'esler was IL men,
Der of the charter commission he con-
tended that the city FAD every power
under it's new charter that the legisla-
ture enjoyed over city. 1t was con-
tended that we could do all things ex-
cept that which was specifically de-
MED the city under the charter, by
the laws of the state, or by it's consti-
tuition.
Then came John F.. Samuleson, the
present city attorney, with his anti
quated ideas of the powers of cities,
and in which the courts have gener-
ally shared. Samculson holds that
the city can not own and operate
coal docks, grocery stores and things
Of that sort without the consent of the
legislature. In all probability the
courts would sustain him because they
are invariably bound to precedent
and the mOss-covered past
But Judge Cant held differently in
the Two Harbors' case when that viii
lage took over coal dock, and there
may be other forward looking judges
in our district who would recognize
the necessities of the times and would
rule that city operating under a
home rule charter can do most ANY,
thing within reason that has been
hcret ofore denied to municipalities.
In any event when there was an ag-
itation here two years ago for mu-
nicipal coal dock City Attorney SAM
uelson held the city had no author
ity to purchase and operate one with
out legislative consent. The case was
then carried to the legislature and a
bill to authorize the city to acquire
and operate a coal dock went by the
boards.
Now it is proposed TO raise the tax
levy through a bill to be passed by
the legislature. The people of Du-
luth have full power to act on such
proposition, and it stands as an in
dctment against municipal patriotism
and the intelligence of our people to
ask the legislature to do thing that
we have the unquestioned power to
do for ourselves. Lets get away from
the habit of running to ST. Paul for
everything we want here in Duluth,

PekLlhG SYRUPS;;
HOW TO Make Them

At the height of the picking season
the general method of preparing ma
terial is outlined by Mildred Weigley,
chief of the division of home econon1-
les of the state agricultural college.
Recipes for syrups for picking are
recommended by Miss Weigley as fo'-
lows:
Sweet Pickle Syrup cups of sug-
are, 2 cups of vinegar. This syrup
can be used for sweet cucumber pick
les or picked fruits
Sour Pickle Syrup-2 quarts vim
egar, / tablespoon salt, 1 cup sugar.
one and one-half tablespoons each Of
mustard seed and celery seed and one
tablespoon of cinnamon may be added
to make a spicy syrup.
Spiced vinegar for lruit-2 cups Of
vinegar, 4 cups brown sugar. 4 table,
spoons mixed spices
Mustard pickle SYRUP quarts OF
vinegar and water if too strong,
cups brown. sugar, Il cup salt, cups
mustard, Il cup flour, teaspoon tu-
meric powder.
Some fruits and vegetables may be
cooked in the syrups or brine, says
Miss Weigley; with others better re-
suits are secured by soaking in sat
water over night, or by parboiling in
salt water. The object Of the soakins
or parboiling is TO- make it possible 70
the fruit Or vegetable to absorb the
vinegar or syrup better. Fun details
as to methods of picking can be OBJ
tanned by addressing the chief of the
sofa Farm school,

NEW YORK, Sept 1.-THE wars

Germs every one in England is so
great that one can hardly bring it
down to just the effect on labor as it
concerns women" said Mrs. Beatrice
Forbes-Robertson Hale, on the eve

England
OF course, the return of the men
who went to war, and whose jobs were
filled by women during their absence
mas made a change in conditions, for
naturally the women gave up these
positions, and so have been thrown
out of work in great numbers Be-

pesslm1sts said that these women
wouldn't want to give up their jobs;
that they might even refuse to do SO
but that has not been the case in
any instance.
Women Find Other Work.
1.-The women have just gone about
finding other work, and where a few
months ago one found women bus
conductors and elevator girls, now
men are filling all those positions
quite as they did before the war.
OF course, that means that there
seem to be many surplus women; as
a matter of fact, there are now 2,OOO,-
GOO more women than men in Great
Britain, where formerly there were
100000. OF course. though, those
are not all working women. But it is
not the fact that returning soldiers
nave thrown women out Of work that
has made labor. bitter, of course; that
has had nothing to do with it. 1t is
the profiteering that went on during
the war that has stirred up feeling

Mrs. Hale went on to say that she

she had not had an opportunity to

| cotton spinners in Manchester made
profits of 80 per cent on it's war con-

Hastings Tells of Daughters Wonder
full Recovery Through The Use
Of Tanlac.

"My daughters recovery through
the use of Tanlac was Do wonderful
that | can't help rejoicing over it,"
said j. C. Hastings, a well known far
mer living at Alief, Texas.
For two years." he continued,
"she was sick with stomach trouble
and neuralgia, and her sufferings
were something awful. Most every
thing she ate would give her trouble,
and many a time she would wake up
in the night in so much distress that
she couldn't speak or even raise her
self up in bed. By morning she
would be SO weak and worn out that
she would hardly be able to get up
at all. In fact, she had to spend the
most of her time in bed and was for
ced to give up her homework, and /
was afraid she would never get well.
81 read in the papers about friend
of mine who had been relieved by
taking Tanlac, so | got the medicine
for my daughter and now she is like
different person. Instead of lying
in bed weak and miserable, she is the
first one up in the mornings and is
now well and strong enough to take
up her homework again. She never
complains of suffering like she did
before, and from the way Tanlac has
built her up l have so much faith in
in that | never expect to be without
it in the house"
