PICNIC IS BEST
HELD THIS Year
Duluth, Superior and Aibbing
Plumbers and Pipe Filters
Hold Great Outing.

The biggest and finest picnic given
this year by any labor union at the
Head of the Lakes was that of the
Duluth, Superior and Hibbing plumb
ers' and pipe filters last Saturday at
Fond du Lac. Nearly 1000 men, wo-
men and children boarded the steamer
Chicora from the two cities and
reached Fond du Lac at 1880. The
Hibbing members came down in au-
tomobiles.
The largest turnout came from Su-
perior, headed by J. D. Campbell.
president of the Superior Trades and
Labor assembly and one Of the best
known plumbers in the northwest. T.
j.. Wiltzbacker was chairman Of the
committee for the Duluth plumbers.
Both worked like beavers during the.
day and they saw that every person
on the grounds was we'll provided for.
Neil & Co., of Superior, loaned their
large auto truck for the occasion, and
when the Chicora arrived refresh
ments, consisting of ice cream, sand
wiches by the hundreds, and soft.
drinks, were hastily carried to the.
previously arranged stands. There
committeeman served all corners with
out cost. The Riddles were given all
the pop and ice cream they could put
away and the older people did JUS
tice to the sandwiches and coffee. =.
Some of the families brought their
baskets, and Chambers Grove took on
the appearance. of great city park:
as the big party split into groups.
After lunch three games of ball were
played. The first was between the
Duluth and Superior Marine Filters.
The next was between the. Duluth and
Superior Plumbers. The final game
was between the winners Of the two
first events It would be shame to
publish the scores or to state the win
ners. The slaughter OF the pitchers
was frightful.
After the ball games athletic sports
were pulled of. Some records in fast
running were broken. The committee
mems race was the big attraction and
the applause that followed each event
made the participants in them feel
that the game was worth while.

1t was "strike from the shoulder"
with every blow at the semi-mo nthly
meeting of the Federated Trades as
sembly held last Friday evening at
Owls hall. President John E. Jensen
was in the chair and the discussion
OF the several subjects coming before
the meeting was so extended that it
was nearly 1880 A. M. when the mo-
ton to adjourn was put and carried.
The debate started following an ad-
dress delivered to the delegates by
COL Pope, inviting the assembly and
union labor to take part in the parade
on homecoming day, Saturday, Au-
gust Is. Col. Pope had undoubtedly
been appraised Of the attitude of union
LABOR towards the home guard, and he
advised the delegates to forget all
past differences and join with the
other citizens in making the event a
success
Judge McGies Baby.
A motion was made that the labor
representatives on the homecoming
committee be directed to advise the
committee that organized labor would
! not participate in the parade with the
home guard or motor corps. The
| motion provoked considerable debate
which was INDUCED in by number
! of delegates. 1t was charged that the
home guard was the baby of Judge
McGie of the Minnesota Public Safe
ty commission and was organized for
the purpose of compelling labor to

| Governor Burnquist had ordered out
the home guard without the request
Of the SHERIFF. Of Ramsey county and

business interests of St. Paul and Min

moved from office by the governor.

Financed Home Guard.
It was further alleged that big
| business in part financed the home
guard during this strike and quite a
large sum was sent down to the Twin
Cities by representatives of big con-
Germs having their headquarters in
Duluth. AS none were present to de-
fend the home guard the motion was
| carried by large majority.
A communication was received from
Frank Morrison, secretary of the A.
| F. of L., notifying the assembly that
the American Book company was still
unfair to organized labor. School Di-
| rector r. J. Coole was present and
! advised the delegates that but IS per
cent of the text books used in the
schools was furnished by this unfair

Another communication from the
A. +. of L., relative to the League of

from Minnesota urging them to sup
