NO CANAL BASS But

Because continued zero weather kept
the Delaware and Rarltan canal filled
with heavy ice all winter, the State
Fish and Gamo Commission was unable
to net the waterways for bass before
the water was raised and navigation
resumed in March. When weather con-
ditions permit. the State arranges to
net the canal each winter n thus
procures a considerable supply or
young bass for stocking other waters
In Now jersey. The lack of canal bass
this year will not be as serious a dis

IS CALLED0 OFF
machinists' Union Votes to- Re-

Company.

TOLEDO, Feb. 26.-The labor con-
troversy between the Willys-Overland
company and Machinists' union. No.
los, and other unions involved, came
to an official end last Monday.
This action was decided upon: at a
special meeting of the Machinists'
union held last Sunday, when that
organization declared the lockout off
and giving it's members permission to
return to work. Other organizations
involved will no doubt take similar
action.
Thus comes to an end the most
costly and bitter fought labor contro-
versy> Toledo has ever had, in which
the workers were lined up as a living
wall on one side and the powerful
big business interests of the city on
the other.
Thirteen thousand workers were
locked out May 5th, 1918, when neRo-
tiations failed to establish American
standards Of working conditions in
the big auto plant, among which were
included the right Of collective bar
gaining, the selection Of shop commit
tees and the 44-hour week,
Two lives were sacrificed and a
score injured. coused by the firing of
the armed soldier-police, known as
"Schreiber's Army" upon peaceful
citizens and which the coroner. after
most exhaustive Investigation, de-
clared unjustifiable.

OIL Land. CASES:

Attorney General Refuses TO:
Garry Them to United States:
Supreme Court.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 26.-What Is
described here as the most fragrant
piece Of corporation favoritism that
can be charged against public Off
cial for the last 20 years,is the refusal
of Attorney General Palmer to carry
oil land cases against the Southern
Pacific Railway to the supreme court.
Many years ago the federal govern
ment granted certain lands to that
railroad and specifically excluded land
on which oil might be found. Oil was
found there and the government in
late years entered suit for tho return
Of the lands. Lower courts In Cali
fornia, controlled by: the corporation,
decided against. the government. At
:torney General Gregory carried one
case involving about 5000 acres to
the supreme court and won it.
Similar cases had been won and 1t
was regarded as certain that the
navy's oil supply would be. protected.
Now Palmer refuses to appeal these
othe rcases. Southern Pacific stock
jumped IA points when his decision
became known. The New York Suns
financial writer estimates that the de-
cision doubles the total value of
Southern Pacific stock.

TO MAkE.RACE
AGAINST CARSS:
". 4. Plttenger, Well known Re.
dictionary Files for Republican
Nomination for Congress.

w. A. Pittenger of Duluth has filed
for the Republican nomination for
Congress. Just as the political wise
acres were discussing available can
didates for congress, Mr.. Pittenger
upset all their plans and planted his
entrance fee with the secretary OF
state.
AS a result of Mr.. Pittenger's ac-
ton, the Republican camp is badly
upset. While good campaigner, 1t
is not believed that Mr.. Pittenger is
the strongest man the Republicans
can nominate. There are Mr.. Hitch
cock Of Hibbing, former Senator
Harold Griggs Of Virginia, G. P.
Craig, Warren E. Greene. and
number Of other prominent men in
Duluth upon whom the ''king-mak-
ers" had been fixing their eyes.
Carss' Fine Record.
w. L. Carss, the present congress-
man, will be candidate to succeed
himself. He has made fine record
and has voted consistently on every
measure coming before> congress. He
was elected as labor's candidate and
he, in all probability, will be NOM
mated again as a labor candidate.
With a man like Pittenger running
against him, the issue in the cam
paign will be clearly defined, for few
| men in the Minnesota legislature had
a more reactionary record than the
present aspirant for the Republican
| nomination for congress. Mr.. Pitt
enger was first brought into public
| life, backed by the private insurance
| interests, to oppose state insurance
| law which was being advocated by
union labor. He has voted consist
emily against labor and progressive
legislation. He is absolutely without
a. forward or progressive ideal. He
is a politician of the old school and
offers little to the people Of the
Eighth Congressional District of
Minnesota for their support.
Relies on "Wets.''
It is understood that Mr.. Pitten-
ger expects to show great strength
on account Of his record as a "Wet.
He seems to think that the people
are already tired Of prohibition and
they will rally to his support and
forget everything else to get their
beer and booze back.
Mr.. Pittenger is a. lawyer. There
are 260 lawyers in congress now and
nearly every one Of these is as fa1
behind the times as is the profession
itself. Just as the leading maya.
zines and independent daily news
papers Of the country are. calling
public attention to the fact that there
are too many lawyers as law max
ers orr friend Pittenrer hol11v on.
tiers the race in this district, in the
hope that he. may add to the al.
ready long list Of members Of his
profession serving in congress.
Labor welcomes the candidacy Of
w. A. Pittenger. Two years age
when he ran for the legislature, the
workingmen Of his district knew lit
tie of his previous legislative record
Before the last session adjourned
every workingman in Duluth knew al

about him. Indeed, he was so un-
reasonably bitter against labor legis-
1ation that he lost caste in the legis-
lature, and before it adjourned he
carried so little weight that it was
impossible for him to secure the pas
sage Of a single bill with which he
was identified.
Driven to despair, he frequently
beseeched his colleague in the house,
who had strong prestige there, to
come to his rescue and help him out.
Such a man aspires to represent this
great district in the congress Of the
United States. We shall "Pit''
against him our beloved representa-
tive, William L. Carss, whose record
is an open book, and we have no fear
OF the outcome, of the election. Mr..
Carss will succeed himself in this
district. OF this there is no doubt.

Does Mr.. Edison Know? Work.
ing Conditions at His Plant
Not Exemplary.

NEWARK, N. j., Feb. 26.-On his
seventy-third birthday Thomas Edison
said he would like to know III the
time will ever come when tn eunions
generally will teach their members to
be better workmen and train their
ablest and more ambitious to become
bosses and employers
While history shows that the eight
hour day is older than the present
civilization, Mr.. Edison said:
Il am glad that the eight-hour day
had not been invented when I was a
young man."
The electric wizard ignored pres
ent-day specialization: and the devel-.
opment of the factory system. In the
Newark Ladger Hugh v. Reilly made
this reference to the local Edison CON-
pany:
For years it had been a practice
Of the Edison company to herd :ap-
plicants for employment in a large
field until the employment agent could
look them over. When that dignitary
would arrive it was his custom to
mount large box and scan the crowd
AS his eye would meet some future
founder of a hypherated-America
family who would be smoking a long
stemmed pipe, he would motion to him
to come forward and he would get the
job.
= OF late this practice has been modi-
fled somewhat. The firm now adver-
ttses for Americans, but, according to
the advice of local labor officials the
man with the 18-inch smoke pipe still
gets the job.
