OBSERV ATOMS
The Lowering Of Red Lake
Tnnlea, "a s.'s "a !.

Dear Mr.. Berg: noticed your ar
ticle regarding the Red Lake drainage
project. Perhaps you have not read
the first annual report of the board
which has this project under advise
ment. I am enclosing copy here
with in order to have you acQuaint
yourself with the work under consid-
Grafton. Your article is a little mis-
leading in spots which I am sure is
unintentional on your part, but which
may give others an incorrect view Of
it. I know you always intend to be
absolutely fair which is the reason
why am now writing you.
Permit me to state that in the first
place mass meeting attended by over
800 farmers from the Red Lake and
Clearwater basins started the project.
Two court hearings attended by at
least 300 farmers, were held before
the district was organized. No op-
position was expressed at either hear
ing. i ~ Il
In the second place petitions signed
by hundreds of farmers living along
those streams Originals are on file
in the secretary's office) asked that
those improvements be made. Bonds
in the amount of $4,000 for each pro
ject signed by a large number of
farmers for each project, were filed
with these petitions. - r, d
The work proposed to be done is. to
provide adequate outlets in the Red
Lake and Clearwater basins. I would
be very glad to have this opportunity
Of discussing with you more in detail
the nature of the area which thus
will be adequately protected against
flood waters. You will find an area
Of farm land much like that which
you own near Erskine. It has fine
rich soil, that compares .favorably
with the best the state affords and re.
;quires only the removal Of the food
hazard to be absolutely safe and
richly productive. Many lateral
bitches are already constructed and
hundreds Of farmers have already
built homes in the area, but no at
tention was paid to the outlet, as has
been the ease so many times before
:. will agree that the flood control
feature should have been taken care
Of before SO many settlers built homes
on this land. The report Of the board
shows tina f "a ttempts were begun. il
1892 to get action but it has only been
recently that any definite progress has
been made, In the meantime hundreds
of farmers have suffered periodical
losses aggregating large sums. The
hope that something would be done
some day to make this fine area Of
land safe. has remained with them and
it is today nearer Of realization than
at any time before. r. j
+ It is true that a part Of the Red
Lake Indian reservation will be pro
vided with drainage facilities thru the
deepening of the channel of the Red
Lake river as it leaves the lake, and
thereby opening new lands. To deny
the Indians the right to improve their
lands and later to live upon them il
they so; desire is. not "a full measure
of justice to them. - ~ j
:, If you will examine the contour
lines Of the area north and Northeast
of Red Lake you will find that that

Preparing Cast For
Library Performance
Director For "Katcha-Koo" Come
This Week To Start Rehearsals

The committee in charge of the
Carnegie Library musical comedy,
"Katcha-Koo' is arranging the cast
of characters in preparation for the
arrival of director from the John B.
Rogers Company sometime this week
The performance will be in the later
part of June.
"Katcha-Koo" tells the interesting
story of an American aviator, who
lost in India, masquerades as an Or
iental Fakir with the result that many
thrilling adventures and amusing CON-
plications follow. The piece is rich
in comedy effects and there are novel
and beautiful musical and spectacular
numbers. The piece is intensely pat
riotic throughout.
Secretary of the Alton, (Ill.) Y. W.
c. A. says: "The John B. Rogers Pro.
dlcing Company have put on two
plays for our Business Girls Club, one
before I came to Alton, which was
successful, and one last winter
"KATCHA-KOO." This one partic.
ularly brought results at a time when
we felt results were impossible"

Fitzgerald Boy In
Yokahoma Writes

The editor of the Leader has re-
ceived an interesting letter from
Lester L. Schnare, an attache of
the consulate at Yokahoma, Japan.
Mr.. Schnare lived here with his par
ents for many years and is well
known to Fitzgerald people.
Mr.. Scenarios letter is full of in
teresting side1ights on world events
and carries high endorsement for
the comparative efficiency of the
United States Postal Service over
that of Japan. Consular regulations
forbid publication of Mr.. Schare's
letter.
He urges American business men
to demand that any transoceanic
shipping they have shall be carried
in American ships. "It is almost
criminal carelessness ON the part of
our manufacturers and shippers that
permits SO large percentage of our
goods on, foreign vessels" The only
way of building up and maintaining
an American merchant marine he
points out, is for American business
men to patronize it.

LABOR BOARD CUTS
WAGES IL PER CENT
All Classes of Labor Affected by
General Reduction
EFFECTIVE JULY /
-Eighty-sir Railroads to Get Re-
duction Immediately

CHICAGO, June 1st.-A IL per
cent reduction in the wages of all
classes of railroad labor, which will
lop approximately $4OO,OOO,OOO an
nually from the pay rolls of practi-
cafly every railroad in the country,
was announced Tuesday night by the
United States railroad labor board.
The reduction will become .effec-
tive on July l. 1t will affect nearly
100000 railroad employees.
The reduction hits every class Of
railroad employees from engineers
to common labor. While the deci-
sion declares that it affects only
those roads which made applications
for wage reduction prior to April IS,
it adds that it will also include "such
carriers as may be included hereafter
by addenda, and to the specific class.
es of employees named or referred
to under each particular larrier."
Eighty-six railroads are included in
the decision, and all other class A
carriers will be included by July /,
as they are given until that date
to file petitions for wage reductions.
The provisions of the announced
reductions follow:
Conductors, ticket collectors, brake
men, hagmen and baggagemen in
passenger service. are cut $18 a
month. In freight service these
classes were reduced "a cents per
day.
Engineers, hremen and helpers in
passenger service are cut 48 cents
per day and in freight service 81
cents per day.
Maintenance of way, structural
and unskilled forces are cut from w
to 10 cents per hour. Approximately
100000 unskilled railroad laborers
receive cut of 81 cents per hour.
These classes are hardest hit by the
decision, because the decrease is the
same amount they were raised last
year.
Shop Employees
Shop employees, including machin-
lists, boilermakers, blacksmiths, car
men, sheet metal and electrical work.
ers are cut 8 cents per hour.
Telegraphers, station agents at
non-telegraph stations and telephone
operators are cut 5 and 6 cents per
hour.
All signal department employees
receive a reduction of from 6 to 8
cents per hour and all employees on
railroad ferries, tugs, steam lighters
and barges are also given a decreased
monthly rate; train dispatchers re-

Thousands of miscellaneous en-
ployees, including supervisors and
workmen not classified, are given the
same cut as those classes to which
their employment is the most closely
analogous.
In summing up its reasons for
granting the carriers cuts, the board
notes decrease in the cost of living
and decreases in wages for similar
kinds of work in other industries.
